PINE BLUFF, Ark. – Mya Hall posted a career-best outing as the Prairie View A&M softball team topped Arkansas-Pine Bluff 9-2 Friday afternoon in a Southwestern Athletic Conference game at the Torii Hunter Softball Complex.

How it Happened:
Alyssa Garcia got it started for Prairie View A&M, delivering a RBI single to score Ryleigh Love – who led off with a walk before stealing second – for the game's first run. After a walk and a Kimberly Hernandez single loaded the bases, Garcia scored on a wild pitch.

PVAMU was gifted another run in the second inning as Brianna Grays scored on a passed ball and Garcia delivered a RBI sacrifice fly to score Love.

After adding two more runs in the fourth inning, the Lady Panthers had all the run support Hall would need. The sophomore carried a no-hitter into the fifth inning, where UAPB managed a pair of hits and one run. Despite the Lady Lions scratching another run across in the sixth, Hall ensured there would be nothing else. In the seventh, Prairie View A&M added insurance runs in the seventh thanks to a two-run single by Bianca Cruz and a RBI double by Natalie McLennan. Hall retired the side to close out the win.

Key Stats:
- Hall struck out a career-high 11 hitters during the complete game effort, allowing three hits and two runs.

- McLennan led the Panthers with a 3-for-4 effort. Hernandez picked up a pair of hits, while Grays and Love each scored two runs and stole a pair of bases. Garcia accounted for three RBI.

PVAMU looks to take the series from UAPB tomorrow afternoon in doubleheader action. Game one begins at noon with game two to follow.
