The 5th Annual Striking out Breast Cancer game against the (#19) Texas A&M Aggie softball team gave the over flow crowd at Cougar Softball Stadium something to shout about. After UH starting pitcher Fr, Diedre Outon got the first two Aggie batters out, a single by A&M's 1b,Rhiannon Kliesing, then 2b,Melissa Dumezich homers, The Cougar pitching staff (Sr,P Donna Bourgeois) and fielding knuckled down and didn't allow the Aggies to threaten them with another run until late. That run was set up by a walk by c,Nicole Morgan, who is pinch run for by Andrea Tovar, who scores on a throwing error by the UH cf.
UH did all of their scoring in the bottom of the third. C, Haley Outon leads off with a single, advancing to second on a sacrifice by rf, Angela Spittler. Lf, Kathy Beth Sherman singles, advancing both Outon and Spittler one base, then a throwing error by the Aggie catcher, scores Outon. And moving Spittler to third. The next batter 3b,Holley Anderson walks, then 1b,Melissa Gregson cranks a homer to center field, clearing the bases for a 4-2 Cougar lead. The 4 runs would be enough for the win.
