Carlie Scupin is only in her first year with Arizona softball but is already making a name for herself as one of the most powerful hitters the storied program has ever seen.
On Saturday, the freshman became just the sixth player in UA history to land a homer on top of Gittings Gym, a multi-story building located well beyond the right field fence.
The solo shot helped the ninth-ranked Wildcats run-rule Cal 9-0 in the first game of a two-game series. The finale is set for Sunday at noon.
“It felt pretty nice,” Scupin said.
