SAN FRANCISCO - For the third time this season and second consecutive week, freshman Kiki Escobar has been named Pac-12 Freshman of the Week for her performances against No. 20 Arizona, as announced on Monday.
With the help of Escobar, the Beavers took the series against the Wildcats for the first time since 2013 and snapped a 15-game losing skid against UA. Oregon State sits third in the Pac-12 standings behind Arizona State and UCLA with a 31-9 overall record and a 7-5 conference record.
Escobar reached base in all three games last week, producing a team-best five hits, going 5-for-9 (.
