Today, the Texas Longhorns will be playing for their lives.
After a stunning loss to Arizona State on Friday, Texas softball must win Saturday if it wants to continue to defend its national title. The Longhorns were dominated in a 4-1 showing. The Sun Devils ran out to a 1-0 lead in the third inning and the Longhorns answered in the fourth. But three ASU runs scored in the fifth provided the difference. Arizona State had eight hits at McCombs Field last night; Texas had just four.
