    2002 NCAA Spring Championships Records Book

    DIVISION I 185 Softball DIVISION I SOFTBALL 2002 Championship Edited by Heather Yost. Highlights Bears Title Golden: For California pitcher Jocelyn Forest, facing Pacific-10 Conference rival Arizona on a national stage with the NCAA title on the line likely was easier than facing the Wildcats just six weeks before in a regular-season home game. That was when the senior, after taking a week off in April to mourn the death of her sister, returned to the mound and threw without practice against defending national champion Arizona. Forest was a magician then, allowing just one hit, and she repeated the feat in the Women’s College World Series title game May 27 to claim California’s first championship in any women’s sport and earn most outstanding player honors. Forest won four games, struck out 33 and allowed only nine hits over 28 innings. The Golden Bears’ 6-0 victory over Arizona and ace Jennie Finch stopped the Wildcats’ bid for a sixth title. For the complete story, go to the June 10, 2002, issue of The NCAA News at www.ncaa.org on the World Wide Web. NCAA Photo by Bryan Terry All-Tournament Team: Chelsea Spencer and Veronica Nelson joined Forest on the all-tour- Chelsea Spencer and Kaleo Eldredge (10) cel- nament team for California, while Arizona placed Finch, Jackie Coburn and Leneah Manuma ebrate eventual champion California’s first on the squad. Also on the team were Arizona State’s Erica Beach and Kristin Farber; UCLA’s run in the seventh inning. Natasha Watley, Keira Goerl and Stacey Nuveman; and Florida State’s Leslie Malerich.

    166 DIVISION I Softball DIVISION I SOFTBALL 2001 Championship Highlights Cats Command Series: Arizona's Jennie Finch finished her 32-0 season on the mound with a 1-0 win over UCLA in the Women's College World Series championship game May 28 and was named the most-outstanding player in the tournament. The championship match-up was a familiar one for Finch and the Wildcats, who faced their Pacific- 10 Conference rival for the fourth time of the season. Arizona had won two of the first three. The two teams have now met six times in championship-game history. Arizona owns six NCAA titles, second to UCLA's eight. Home runs had been the difference for Arizona's advancing to the championship game, including a home run in each of the Wildcats' three games of the WCWS from senior Toni Mascarenas. While UCLA pitcher Amanda Freed held Arizona to just three hits in the final, one a homer from senior catcher Lindsey Collins in the fourth inning made the difference in the game. All-Tournament Team: Arizona's Collins, Mascarenas and Nicole Giordano joined Finch on the all-tournament team, while UCLA placed Tairia Mims, Freed and Claire Sua. Stanford's Jessica Photo by Chris Landsberger/NCAA Photos Mendoza, LSU's Britni Sneed and Julie Wiese, and Oklahoma's Jennifer Stewart and Christy Ring also were honored. Pitcher Jennie Finch celebrated a shutout victory over UCLA for the NCAA title May 28. The junior TEAM STANDINGS finished the season 32-0 on the mound.
