Game One Recap: Softball – No. 24 Texas A&M vs Prairie View A&M

Texas A&M wasted no time putting runs on the board. After a flurry of walks, hits, and throwing errors the Aggie loaded the bases for Julia Cottrill.

Two more walks plated Trinity Cannon that was followed up by a double by Allie Enright bringing in
Rylen Wiggins and Cottrill. The final score of the inning was off a fielding error putting Gracyn Coleman across the plate for a 6-0 lead.
