3 up, 3 down in Arizona softball’s sweep of Oregon

The Arizona Wildcats kicked off Pac-12 play over the weekend after finishing up a challenging non-conference record with an 18-7 record.

The ‘Cats couldn’t have had an easier introduction to league competition this year, drawing the Oregon Ducks as for their first opponent. By early Sunday afternoon, Arizona had completed three easy victories and were sporting a 21-7 record.

When your opponent was forced to hold open tryouts just to form a team this year, it’s not surprising when they’re picked to finish last in the conference. That is what’s facing the Ducks, who were decimated by transfers in the offseason.
