The Arizona softball team lost to No. 1 seed UCLA in the Pac-12 Tournament quarterfinals on Thursday, likely ending the Wildcats' season without an NCAA berth for the first time since the mid-1980s.
Justin Spears The last time Arizona missed the postseason, Mike Candrea was a first-year head coach for the Wildcats in 1986.
Since UCLA was the home team Thursday, the Wildcats were in the visitor’s dugout along the first-base line, wore their road navy-blue uniforms and hit at the top of the inning. Arizona second baseman and Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year Allie Skaggs, who hit the walk-off grand slam to run-rule ASU on Wednesday, slapped an RBI single with two outs in top of the fifth inning to bring home Tayler Biehl to put Arizona up 3-2.
Leading up to Altmeyer’s RBI, UA redshirt senior catcher Izzy Pacho’s blooper into center field steered UCLA second baseman Anna Vines into the second-base umpire’s shoulder. She collapsed on the field. The rattled Vines was helped off the field and didn’t return for the remainder of contest.
