But Higgins was able to dominate the zone, striking out four over 2.1 innings in an impressive performance.In the wake of the biggest win by the Longhorns over the Bobcats since an 11-0 victory in Austin in 2008, Texas returns to UFCU Disch-Falk Field to open SEC play against Ole Miss this weekend.
