BASEBALL PAC-12 POWER RANKINGS
Beavers climb to No. 1 in country BY JOEY PUTRELO The Daily Wildcat
1. No. 1 Oregon State (34-8, 17-4 Pac-12 Conference)
After breaking out the brooms and sweeping California, Oregon State now looks down on the rest of college baseball in the NCBWA poll . The Beavers picked a great time to get this hot and look like a College World Series caliber squad.
2. No. 9 Oregon (3413, 13-8)
The Ducks got back on track following a sweep over Arizona last weekend , improving to 21-5 at home. However, UO has a tough schedule ahead with games against Oregon State, ASU and UCLA coming up.
3. No. 13 Washington (33-11-1, 19-5)
UW continued its consistency, sweeping Utah in its own
ballpark over the weekend and earning a hard-fought 8-7 win Monday against Grand Canyon (25-20) . Taking all three home games against Bethune-Cookman (22-27) could possibly launch the Huskies into the NCBWA top 10.
4. Stanford (21-20, 9-12)
Even if UCLA is not the team it was last season, it had to feel good for the Cardinal to take a pair of games from the defending national champs.
5. ASU (24-20, 12-10)
The Sun Devils fought the good fight in all three highly competitive losses to an elite No. 7 Oklahoma State (35-13) program the past weekend . But a playoff team would have won at least one game against the Cowboys. The schedule doesn’t get any easier from here; a trio of dates with Oregon are coming up.
6. UCLA (23-21-1, 10-11)
9. California (19-24, 7-14)
front of its home crowd , it was shut out 5-0 Saturday and fell again the next day 5-2 to Stanford. After winning just three of its last 10 games, it’s highly unlikely now that the Bruins will get a chance to defend their title in the postseason.
Cal was shown no mercy from Oregon State last weekend. Then again, the Beavers haven’t shown anyone mercy as of late.
10. Arizona (18-28, 7-17)
7. USC (25-20, 13-11)
Wildcats head coach Andy Lopez has admitted publicly that he’s already thinking about 2015. Hard to blame the guy when he’s only seen Arizona win two of its last 10 games this late in the season.
Last week the Trojans cooled off, dropping three out of four games. Even though the series was played on the road , USC really hurt itself losing two out of three to Washington State.
(20-23, 10-11)
8. Washington State
11. Utah 3-18)
The Cougars surprised everyone by winning the series over the weekend against a hot USC team. WSU has another golden opportunity this week to add some more wins in a threegame road series with Utah.
(13-28,
Utah scored a season high 17 runs on Sunday against Washington . Alas, the Utes pitching staff gave up 21 that game. It’s been a tough year for the Utes, to say the very least. — Follow Joey Putrelo @JoeyPutrelo

GOLF
UA travels to Oklahoma There are two other NCAA Regional tournaments taking place this weekend: One is being hosted by Florida State, and the other is being hosted by Washington. The NCAA Championship field will be made up of eight teams and two individuals from each regional site. In the Wildcats’ last tournament, the team finished second at the Pac-12 Championships. The Wildcats’ best individual finish was Weaver, who was also second place. The NCAA Regional Tournament will begin on Thursday and come to an end on Saturday.
BY FERNANDO GALVAN The Daily Wildcat
The postseason will continue for the Arizona women’s golf team on Thursday at the NCAA Central Regional Championships. The NCAA Central Regional Championships will be hosted by Oklahoma State and held at the Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla. The field at the Regionals will feature some of the nation’s best, including No. 3 UCLA , No. 4 Arkansas and No. 9 Alabama. The Wildcats earned a four-seed for the Regional Championships and will play alongside LSU and Oklahoma State during the opening round. The Wildcat lineup will feature junior Manon Gidali, junior Kendall Prince, sophomore Lindsey Weaver, freshman Jessica Vasilic and freshman Wanasa Zhou. The teams’ involvement in this weekend’s Regional Championship is the Wildcats’ 22nd season playing in the regional championships. The team has been able to advance to the NCAA championships 18 times.
