After ending its 14-game Pac-12 losing streak, the Arizona softball team won its first conference series since early March with a 6-3 victory over Oregon State on Sunday at Hillenbrand Stadium.
The Arizona softball team achieved both of those objectives over the weekend, sparking hope that the Wildcats can put together a late-season run similar to last year when they were under .500 in the Pac-12 yet made it to the Women's College World Series.
