Two home runs by Coastal Carolina weren’t enough to beat the Bobcats, as Texas State earned a 5-3 win in its first game of its road series with the Chanticleers.
The visitors jumped out in front in the top of the frame. Junior infielder Bailee Carter singled to the pitcher in the second at-bat of the game. Sophomore infielder Tara Oltmann followed by blasting a ball over the right center field fence, giving the team a 2-0 edge.
Oltmann crossed home plate again in the third inning. She led off walking on a full count and advanced to second on a sac bunt by junior infielder Hailey MacKay. Sophomore infielder ArieAnn Bell drove her home with a single up the middle.
