-Soph SS, Haley Gilleland Hit a walk off single in the bottom of the 8th to win the WAC Tournament Crown. She went 2-4 with 2 RBIs and a Stolen Base. The Pack Coach elected to walk Perkins to load the bases with 2 outs. That turned out to be the wrong decision.

-Morgan Melloh Was named the Tournament MVP. She pitched all 22 innings for Fresno State, only giving up 2 runs and striking out 27 in the 3 games. Fellow Bulldogs Gilleland and Coronado were also named to the All-Tournament team.

Player of the game

Haley Gilleland- She came up huge for the Dogs in high pressure spots. In the 4th inning with Phips on 2nd with one out, Haley hit a single scoring Phipps pushing the dogs up 2-1. In 8th she hit the walk-off single. The top of the 7th she made a very good play getting the speedy Micka out with after the lead off single. She fielded the ball going away from first, stopped, then gunned out the runner by a half step. The Pack would of scored later in that inning had she been save.
