Arizona softball sweeps Utah with record-breaking win

In his 34 seasons coaching Arizona softball, Mike Candrea has seen plenty of lopsided affairs.

Yet even Candrea must have been in awe this weekend of his team’s potent offensive power.

With a 13-2 run-ruled win over Utah Sunday afternoon, Arizona swept the Utes and in the process set a school-record 48 runs in a Pac-12 series.

Arizona is off to a 12-0 start in conference play and has won 14 straight games. The Wildcats are outscoring opponents 136-13 in that stretch.

Utah gave Arizona a tight contest for much of Sunday.

Taylor McQuillin started in the circle for the Wildcats and kept Utah scoreless until the fourth inning when she gave up a rare two-run homer.
