BATON ROUGE, LA --The Prairie View A&M Lady Panthers were not able to notch a run against Omaha pitcher senior Kamryn Meyer on Saturday and were shut out 3-0 by the Mavericks.

"We came in with a goal to compete, and do well but we fell short of our goal," said head PVAMU Softball Coach Vernon Bland.  "But this doesn't take away from the season we had.  We won 30 games, won our conference, and set records by winning 17 games in a row.  I am proud of this group and we only had two seniors. But we will be back."

Sophomore Cailin Massey (11-6) got the ball to start for Prairie A&M (30-20) and took the loss. Sophomore Hailey Elizarraras was a bright spot for the Lady Panthers, coming out of the bullpen and throwing one scoreless inning, allowing no hits.

Sophomore Aerin Talley led the way offensively for the Lady Panthers, going 1-for-3 in the ballgame.
