<\/p>\n ARLINGTON, Texas\u00a0\u2013 The UT Arlington Mavericks built an early lead but could not hold off St. John’s on Saturday afternoon, falling 11\u20137 at Clay Gould Ballpark.<\/p>\n UTA came out swinging with five runs across the first two innings, getting on the board in the first on a St. John’s throwing error before erupting for four runs in the second. Harold Laracuente<\/a> sparked the early offense with a two-run single, while Caylon Dygert<\/a> and Holden Rook<\/a> each drove in runs as the Mavericks jumped ahead 5\u20130.<\/p>\n St. John’s answered back with three runs in the third and kept chipping away from there. The Red Storm tied the game with a pair of runs in the fifth, then pushed in front for good with a run in the sixth and three more in the seventh. UT Arlington trimmed the margin to two in the seventh on a pair of sacrifice flies, but St. John’s answered again with a run in the eighth and another in the ninth.<\/p>\n The Mavericks continued to create chances throughout the afternoon, finishing with 11 hits and eight walks. Laracuente led UTA with a 3-for-6 day and two RBIs, while Xander McAfee<\/a> added two hits and two runs scored.
