Baseball, softball seasons end for Wildcats



The Arizona Wildcats finished the 2015 baseball season 31-24 as they closed out a four-game final home stand at Hi Corbett last night. Arizona split with Abilene Christian to start the home stand and beat Hawaii two games to none over the weekend.

Bobby Dalbec hit his 15th home run and pitched seven strong innings on Sunday to pick up the win, while Scott Kingery went 2 for 5 to finish the season with a .392 average (93 for 237). Both players led the Pac-12 in those two categories.

As expected, the Arizona softball team fell two games to none in the Super Regional in Baton Rouge, as the Wildcat pitching staff couldn't hold the fifth-ranked LSU Tigers at bay.

Arizona finishes 41-20 on the year. Chelsea Goodacre finished the season with 24 home runs and 86 RBI. Goodacre hit 71 home runs and knocked in 239 runs in her career as an Arizona Wildcat.

Kellie Fox finished the season with a .400 batting average (74 for 185), while Hallie Wilson ended up with a .394 average (78 for 198). Katiyana Mauga, who finished the season with a .350 average, led the Wildcats in homers with 26. Mauga and Goodacre combined for 50 homers!
