Arizona alumnaΒ Jennie FinchΒ was inducted into the ASA/USA Softball Hall of Fame last week in Shreveport, Louisiana. Not to say that the ASA/USA people are working on a serious logjam of deserving Hall of Famers, but Finch and former UA first basemanΒ Leah O’Brien-AmicoΒ are the only players from the UA’s vastly successful softball program in the Hall of Fame. That should change.Β Jenny Dalton,Β Susie ParraΒ andΒ Nancy EvansΒ are way overdue for induction.Β
