    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.
