The Cats 'chuck-and-duck' hitting attack displays one of the most awesome punches in the history of the college game. The Cats sock their way to an NCAA-record 64 victories (against 3 losses), start the year with a school-record 27-game winning streak and end the campaign undefeated (7-0) in post-season play for the first time. 

Along the way, Arizona blasts 93 home runs, led by junior shortstop Laura Espinoza's jersey-number feat (30), 18 by freshman catcher Leah Braatz, 16 by sophomore second baseman Jenny Dalton and 14 by senior Susie Parra, who capped a remarkable career with National Player of the Years honors by winning the Honda Softball Award.

Parra dominated from the pitching circle, completing a 33-1 season. She did not allow an earned run in three CWS victories, plus struck out 13 in the NCAA title game. She threw the seventh and eighth no-hitters of her career.

Junior first baseman Amy Chellevold hit .504 in the leadoff spot and sophomore center fielder Leah O'Brien hit .416 batting second. Dalton hit .434. Arizona set a then-national record with its .380 team batting average. Espinoza knocked in an incredible 95 runs in 66 games. Freshmen pitchers Nancy Evans and Carrie Dolan made marks with 17-0 and 11-2 records.
 
The Cats had five players in the Pac-10's top 10 in hitting and UA was ranked No. 1 from start to finish.
