The UH Cougar Softball team, regular season co-Champions with Tulsa. Prepare for the upcoming C-USA Softball Tournament in Greenville, NC.

   Celebrating their share as C-USA regular season co-Champions with Tulsa on yesterday, is yesterdays news. Today it was time to get back out on the field and prepare for the upcoming C-USA Softball Championship tournament.
   There was a point in mid March when there were some dark days. Which included the 0-3 conference series against UAB. But, the ship got righted. A double header split with Baylor and a mid week win over ranked A&M. Seemed to give the team what they needed, at that time of the season to move forward. Currently the Cougars are ranked #21, that should change by Tuesday evening when the new RPI comes out. Finishing 19-5 in conference, third best in program history and 39-15 overall. Head Coach Kyla Holas comments on how far the team has come, compared to where they were early in the season. And what they've had done on and off the field get to where they are now. Seniors Amanda Crabtree and Baillie Lott, along with Freshman Diedre Outon, give their comments about the season and the upcoming conference tournament.

7-0, UH completes the weekend sweep of UCF and clinches at least regular season C-USA Co-Championship with Tulsa.

  After scoring runs in the first two innings, the game settled down to the circle and fielding. As good as UCF's P, Diana Rojas was, she got rocked by a grand slam in the bottom of the sixth, by Sr, ph, Baillie Lott. A home run by Lathan, (Brooke,ss) in the bottom of the second, provided UH with an early 2 run lead to another solid win. The win leaves them tied with Tulsa for first place for the regular season C-USA Championship. UH softball players Sr, Baillie Lott, Sr, Amanda Crabtree and Fr, Diedre Outon comment on winning and contributing to the team.
