Softball gets two Leahy HR’s to top UT Arlington, 8-0 (5 inn.)

AUSTIN, Texas – The first career two-HR game from freshman third baseman Randel Leahy helped power Texas (28-12) to a commanding 8-0 (5 inn.) victory over UT Arlington (26-20) on Wednesday night at Red & Charline McCombs Field.

Leahy (3-for-3, two runs scored, two HR's, career-high five RBI) blasted her first career grand slam during a six-run first and finished things off in style with a walk-off solo shot in the fifth. The walk-off triumph marked the sixth for the Longhorns this season and fifth at home, while Leahy's two-HR game was the third for UT over its last seven games.
