MORAGA, Calif. — The ending to the 2023 Saint Mary's softball season sure was a special one. After nearly taking the series opener from BYU on Friday, the Gaels came back with two more masterpieces from their young pitching staff, blanking BYU 2-0 in both games to eliminate the Cougars from WCC title contention. Saint Mary's finishes the season 20-29 and 9-6 in WCC play, the most wins in a season since 2016 and the most conference wins they've ever accumulated in the WCC.
