Arizona softball adds fall scrimmages to schedule
The Wildcats will play another DI team this fall
The Arizona softball team had to cancel several fall games due to inclement weather. While they were able to reschedule two of the three lost matches, they added three additional fall scrimmages to make up for the absence. These extra games include two Red-Blue scrimmages and one regular intrasquad scrimmage. In addition to these falls games, the program has also incorporated a fall match against UNLV.
This contest serves as a replacement for the canceled game against GCU, providing another Division I opponent for the Wildcats. All of these contests will be open to the public, although the UNLV matchup was scheduled during a regular practice time slot. The final four matches represent the last chance for fans to witness the team before the regular season kicks off in February.
The Wildcats bring in 11 new players while retaining 10 returning members, including Big 12 co-Defensive Player of the Year Regan Shockey. The incoming class includes highly ranked recruits Eloisa Maes, Arrianna Rivera, Emma Anderson, Mattea Stern, Taylor Sansaver, and Charlie Simi, with the latter being the top-ranked at No. 49 by Softball America.
Notably, Softball America previously ranked the entire class seventh in the nation, but it has since dropped to No. 11 as the signing day approaches.
