In a slow-moving Sunday matinee game, the Arizona Wildcats were beaten 10-6 by College of Charleston at Hi Corbett Field.
The loss, which came in the finale of a three-game series, dropped the Wildcats to 10-6 overall and 4-4 on their 13-game homestand. Arizona had beaten the Cougars in the first two games.
UA coach Jay Johnson tried to remain upbeat after the defeat but couldn’t hide some of his disappointment.
“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t (disappointed),” he said afterward.
Unlike a majority of their losses this year, where the defense was to blame, the Wildcats’ pitching was the main reason for Sunday’s defeat.
