She was shut out at the plate during the finale against the Northwestern Wildcats.[4] As a sophomore, she made her second finals appearance and once again drove in the decisive runs against Abbott to capture a second championship in her career and the seventh for the school on June 6, 2007.[5] She would be named All-Tournament for her efforts.[6] In 2008, she would nab her first All-Pac-12 Conference honor.
