Arizona shortstop Kellie Fox at left.

Arizona junior shortstop Kellie Fox hit nine home runs in February, which had only been accomplished once by Mike Candrea’s many UA power hitters. In 1995, Laura Espinoza hit nine homers in February in 50 at-bats. Fox, a transfer from UCLA, had 48 at-bats in February. Espinoza went on to hit a school-record 37 homers that season. Stacie Chambers hit her ninth round-tripper of 2009 on March 1. Fox showed significant power as a UCLA freshman in 2011, hitting 11.
