Arizona softball: Hanah Bowen ready to step in for injured Reyna Carranco

The Arizona Wildcats will be without star second baseman Reyna Carranco for a while, possibly even the rest of the season.

The junior broke her left hand and right thumb on Friday when she was hit by a pitch from Washington’s Taran Alvelo.

The timetable for Carranco’s return is unclear, but the postseason is only a week away, so she doesn’t have much time to heal.

“I think it’s going to be one of those week-by-week things to see how much (pain) she can tolerate,” UA coach Mike Candrea said Tuesday.
