A night removed from a close win over in-state rival Arizona State, the Arizona Wildcats were looking to wrap up the series early on Saturday night. The Wildcats attempt at an early series victory was halted as the team fell to their rivals losing 5-2.
Catcher Dejah Mulipola was on the wrong side of a fastball that squared her up right in the face in the first inning and she immediately fell to the ground before being helped up the training staff. Hillary Edior took over the duties behind the plate. McQuillin commented on her backup catcher’s ability to quickly come into the game without skipping a beat.
