AUSTIN, Texas — Ashton Maloney drove in Kayden Henry with the go-ahead run in the ninth inning and top-seeded and top-ranked Texas defeated Texas A&M 9-8 in nine innings to stay alive at their Austin Super Regional. The Longhorns rallied from a 5-1 deficit to hand the Aggies their first loss in five NCAA Tournament games. In the top of the ninth inning, Henry led off with a bunt single, stole second and took third on a groundout. Maloney then hit a chopper to the shortstop and Henry easily scored ahead of the throw that was far offline. Henry was 3-for-5 batting and scored three runs.
