AUSTIN, Texas — Texas erased a North Dakota State lead in the fourth inning and rode solid relief pitching to a 7-2 win over the Bison on Tuesday.
The Bison took a 2-1 lead into the fourth inning on Druw Sackett's run-scoring double in the first inning and Cadyn Schwabe's RBI single in the second.
But Texas took the lead with two runs in the four. The Longhorns added three more in the fifth and another in the eighth. Texas relievers Charlie Hurley and Heston Tole shut down the Bison over the final 6-1/3 innings, allowing just four hits and striking out six.
The Bison have lost 12 in a row and are 1-15 overall. The Bison and Longhorns play again at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 15, in Austin. NDSU then moves on to play three games at Houston Christian on May 17-19.
