The sophomore is hitting .500 heading into Pac-12 play for UA, which is 19-4 after the 12-2 victory Sunday at the Bear Down Fiesta.
By John McKelvey Special to the Arizona Daily Star Sophomore first baseman Carlie Scupin nearly made the same mistake as the batter before her.
Yet, Mauga’s senior year, she had only eight home runs by this point, and Harper had just one season where she had double-digit homers going into Pac-12 play, when she had 13 in 2019. And at that time, Harper’s batting average was"only" .366. That’s important because the schedule now ramps up dramatically. In the coming weeks Arizona faces its primary competitors for the Pac-12 title, No. 5 UCLA and No. 7 Washington, bookending its series with No. 23 Arizona State.
“You can kind of see that certain people get hot at the right time, and it’s just going to kind of be that way,” coach Caitlin Lowe said. “When someone gets hot, they’re going to get the ball and I’ve been most impressed that more people want the ball all the time. That’s what you want to see out of your pitching staff.”
