HUNTSVILLE — Sam Houston had to rally from behind to secure a CUSA series win with 5-2 victory over FIU on Sunday at Bearkat Softball Complex. Â
The Bearkats (20-21, 8-7 CUSA) used three home runs to power past the Panthers, a day after dropping an 8-4 decision to FIU which evened the series. Sam Houston won the opener 6-3 on Friday night.Â
Bella Perez smashed her second home run of the series to put the Kats on the board in the first inning. Â
The Panthers scored two runs in the second on an RBI and an error by the Bearkat defense. Â
Elia Hebel hit a solo home run over the left-field wall in the third to tie it up 2 two runs apiece. Â
Morgan Holliday got in on the home run action and hit a two-run shot in the fourth. This was her second home run of the series and put the Kats up 4-2.Â
Hebel turned on her wheels with a stand-up triple in the sixth that would allow the Kats to score on a Jenny Robison RBI single. Â
Young (4-5) received her second win of the series, pitching the full seven innings. She allowed one earned run on eight hits and collected two strikeouts. Â
Sam Houston will take a midweek break and host UTEP next weekend. The games can be followed on StatBroadcast. Â
