EL PASO — UTEP used a late rally to sneak past Sam Houston 3-0 on Friday evening at Helen of Troy Softball Complex.
Â
The Bearkats (15-23 overall) got a solid performance from starting pitcher Amy Abke. She did not allow a run until the fifth inning, but she did not receive any run support as Sam Houston fell to 4-12 in Conference USA.
Â
One of the best scoring opportunities for the Bearkats came in the second inning.
Â
Julia Herzinger singled to lead off the inning and moved to second on a walk by Jordan Peno. Hannah Scheaffer grounded out to advance the runners into scoring position, but the Miners got a strikeout and line out to end the threat.
Â
Scheaffer got Sam Houston cooking again when she ripped a single to begin the fifth. Once more starting pitcher Faith Aragon was able to get out of the frame unscathed.
Â
UTEP finally broke the scoreless tie in the bottom of the fifth. The Miners' first hit of the game was a solo home run which proved to be enough despite a pair of insurance runs in the sixth.
Â
The Bearkats will try to even the series today when the two teams take the field for a 4 p.m. first pitch.
