BATON ROUGE, Louisiana – Texas Southern University fell to LSU, 15-0, Friday night during the first round of the NCAA Baton Rouge Regionals at Tiger Park.
Thomasina Garza claimed the first hit for the Tigers as she slammed a single to center field. Her efforts went unanswered as TSU was handed its third strikeout to clear all bases. Ten runs were scored at the bottom of the first inning as the Cornhuskers used six hits to grab a large scoring lead.
Texas Southern opened the second inning with two outs when Gisella Parnanich hit a single through the right side, followed by a walk for Adreana Casares – moving two Tigers on base. A final strikeout came and ended the frame with zero runs. TSU finished the second by giving up another five runs, making the score 15-0.
After three innings of scoreless play, the game ended in the fifth due to run-rule. As a result of inclement weather, the game was delayed one hour and 19 minutes (in total).
This marked the Tigers’ second shutout game in the 2014-15 season.
The Tigers will face Nebraska tomorrow, May 16, at 2:30 p.m. TSU must defeat the Cornhuskers in order to remain active in the NCAA Softball Tournament. Follow live stats or Watch ESPN.
