Perfection generally leads to accolades, and that’s the case for Washington softball pitcher Gabbie Plain.
After throwing a five-inning perfect game Saturday against Utah, Plain was named the freshman softball player of the week in the Pac-12. She struck out five of the 15 batters she faced and allowed just two balls to leave the infield. She now has a 0.70 ERA. She became just the fourth Huskies pitcher to throw a perfect game.
It was her second freshman weekly honor this season in the Pac-12 and the Australian was named the national pitcher of the week earlier this season.
