Excited to be back, Reyna Carranco’s return has Arizona softball hitting on all cylinders

Senior second baseman Reyna Carranco has missed extensive time in three different seasons because of broken bones and bad luck.

She took a pitch to the face in 2018, then pitch to the hand in 2019. This February, she broke her thumb swinging at soft toss in the batting cage. Carranco has a hard time explaining exactly how it happened.

“It was just really random,” she said. “It was just bizarre.”

Carranco isn’t one to show emotion, but she was frustrated when she learned she was going to be sidelined for over a month.
