Hanah Bowen throws first-ever complete game as Arizona softball sweeps GCU

PHOENIX — Arizona softball completed a three-game sweep of Grand Canyon on Saturday by topping the Lopes 8-1 to extend their winning streak to 17 games.

UA sophomore Hanah Bowen threw her first-ever complete game as the Wildcats pulled away late by scoring seven of their eight runs in the final three innings.

“The hitters were very aggressive, so I had to keep them on their toes, get ahead in the count, and just throw my junk,” said Bowen, who is 3-0 with a 0.55 ERA.

The right-hander tallied a career-high eight strikeouts and only allowed four hits, though she did hit three batters.
