It’s true of any team, but this year’s Arizona softball team has learned the lesson especially well. It takes everyone working together to win. That’s exactly how the Wildcats put an end to the historic eight-game losing streak they were on with a 10-9 victory over Washington.
Arizona used three pitchers, had six hitters bat runs in, and got a walk-off home run from Sharlize Palacios to get their first Pac-12 win of the season.
The two-run homer was the exclamation point on the weekend of Palacios, who had been struggling coming into the weekend series.
