Softball got under way in 2017, the No. 10 Arizona Wildcats faced off with the Fordham Rams at Hillenbrand stadium on Thursday night. The Wildcats started the Hillenbrand Invitational off with an 8-1 win over last year’s Atlantic 10 Conference champions.
It was clear pitcher Danielle O’Toole (1-0) needed time to shake the offseason rust off, and she gave up three straight hits to lead off the game allowing one earned run.
“It’s my last first game, obviously I’m a little nervous,” O’Toole said when asked about the three singles she gave up to start the game.
