Oregon Softball saw eight players recognized by the Pac-12 conference on Tuesday.
Junior shortstop Paige Sinicki was named Pac-12 Conference Co-Defensive Player of the Year. This is just the second time inSinicki ranks third in the Pac-12 with 97 assists and a .972 fielding percentage. Offensively, she is hitting a career-best .274 and is a perfect 11-for-11 in stolen bases.
"She had an unbelievable career," said coach Melyssa Lombardi. "I look at everybody's career, and when that day comes it comes differently; for her it came a little different than what we expected. But at the end of the day, to be honest with you, I don't even care. I care more about her, and the fact that she's going to be okay and that she's going to have a normal life and that she's going to recover.
Outfielders Ariel Carlson and Kai Luschar were awarded First Team All-Conference. Carlson is the program's first player ever with a 15-homer, 15-steal season, while Luschar leads the Pac-12 in steals and runs scored . "She worked really, really hard on her swing before the season and during the season,” said coach Lombardi when asked about Daniell. "I think she is very aware of her swing and when it feels good, when it doesn't feel good and the quick adjustments that she needs to make."
