After a humbling loss on Saturday night, the Arizona Wildcats got back in the win column with a 1-0 victory over New Mexico in the final game of the Candrea Classic on Sunday afternoon at Rita Hillenbrand Stadium.

The ninth-ranked UA (3-1) got its lone run in the bottom of the third on an RBI groundout by Sharlize Palacios that scored Sophia Carroll after she led off the inning with a single and went to third on a Jasmine Perezchica single with 1 out. The Wildcats finished with five hits, two by Blaise Biringer.
