League officials feel a level of comfort with the first Pac-12 Softball Tournament taking place at Arizona's Hillenbrand Stadium, which has hosted countless regionals and super regionals over the years.
When Pac-12 softball coaches decided that they would follow other conferences across the country and have a league tournament, there was no better location for the first one than Tucson.
People are also reading… “Being the first one, it wasn't the intent going into it, but the fact that we get to celebrate and honor him and the impact that he's had not just at Arizona, in the Pac 12, but college softball and actually USA Softball, it's just the perfect storm. It's a great way to kick off the Pac 12 Softball Tournament.”
Peterson added that with the weather, upgrades to Hillenbrand a few years ago, the Wildcats’ fanbase and the history of the UA program — with eight national championships, 12 conference championships, 25 World Series and 35 consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances — Tucson was the ideal choice to host the inaugural tournament.“We’re so beyond proud,” Arizona coach Caitlin Lowe said. “It was a no-brainer for us, especially because we had the new facility built.
So while the Pac-12 is involved in planning the event, it’s being run by the host school, Arizona. With experience hosting so many NCAA regional and Super Regionals throughout the years, being in this position is in UA’s wheelhouse and gives someone like Peterson and her team a “huge comfort level” for the first tournament.
Not only has Arizona been here before with major softball events, it always comes back to the man who started it all.
