Through 13 games to start the softball season, a large part of the team’s offense is running through Hailey Arteaga.
The junior from Upland, Calif. is having a torrid opening to the campaign. To start the season, Arteaga has a .447 average through 38 at-bats, which equates to 17 hits. For players on the team with 15 at bats or more, the next best is Jaden Tate, who is hitting .296 in 27 plate appearances. Arteaga also leads the team with 10 RBIs.
As she has faced more collegiate pitchers over the course of her career, Arteaga has been able to refine her style to lead to this success.
