In what was a closely contested game, the Texas Longhorns (13-9) were able to hold off the No. 25 Sam Houston State Bearkats (16-5), 3-2, on Tuesday night at UFCU Disch-Falk Field. The Longhorns got just enough offense in a game that saw Texas pitchers strike out 13 Bearkats.
Nico O’Donnell took the mound to start the game, and like we’ve seen at times this season, he struggled with consistency throughout his entire appearance. In the first inning he issued two walks, but was able to record a strikeout and get two ground outs to exit the inning without giving up a run.
