CORAL GABLES, Fla.—There was a lot about this Arizona team that was similar to the one that reached the College World Series a year ago. But one thing that was glaringly different with the 2022 Wildcats was their inability to win a slugfest.
And it was in one that their season came to an end.
Arizona’s depleted pitching staff was no match for Ole Miss’ red-hot hitters, while the UA’s lineup didn’t have nearly enough firepower to keep up in a 22-6 loss on Monday night. The loss eliminated the Wildcats (39-25) from the NCAA Tournament’s Coral Gables Regional, with the Rebels (35-22) heading into a Super Regional matchup at No.
