Sun Devil pitcher Dallas Escobedo, the Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year, was named the Most Outstanding Player of the Women’s College World Series. She became the !rst freshman to win the title-clinching game since UCLA’s Heather Compton did it in 1990.

Seven of eight Pac-10 squads made the NCAA postseason, ARIZONA, ARIZONA STATE, CALIFORNIA, OREGON, UCLA and WASHINGTON and six of those seven squads advanced to Super Regionals. Top-seeded Arizona State and California represented the Conference at the Women’s College World Series. In Conference play, the Sun Devils won their second Pac-10 title overall under the direction of Pac-10 Coach of the Year, Clint Myers.
