Skaggs also claimed Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year honors after completing a season with no errors in 168 chances, something no other Wildcat infielder had ever done. She had 91 putouts and 77 assists and participated in 10 double plays. People are also reading… “I struggled mentally on defense a lot last year. I was very anxious and nervous out there sometimes, and ... I wasn’t comfortable at all,” Skaggs said. “One thing I vividly remember telling my dad after we got eliminated : I want to make the All-Pac-12 Defensive Team next year.”Skaggs, who is mainly known for what she can do offensively, led the Pac-12 in runs batted in , a total that's tied for sixth nationally, and knocked 14 home runs.
