Arizona State Sun Devils

Charli Turner Thorne's recruiting touch in the Pacific Northwest continued Thursday in a roundabout way.

For the first time since 1999, ASU is hosting the conference track and field championships.

Mike Leake has made a difference for the ASU baseball team in the field and on the mound.

A well-kept sports secret has a golden chance to make history this weekend. Veteran followers and novices have one last chance to watch some of the best athletes in Arizona State history at the men's and women's Pac-10 track and field championships.

The men's golf team improved by 19 shots in the second round at the NCAA West Regional and after the morning tee times has moved into the top 10. Go to golfstat.com for live scoring.

Pac-10 Champion Arizona State is tied for 17th after shooting a 16-over-par 304 after the first round of the NCAA Men's Golf West Regional held in Bremerton, Wash., at the Gold Mountain Golf Course. Four Pac-10 teams lead the way, as Oregon is at 1-over 289 and host Washington, USC and UCLA are at 3-over 291. The top 10 teams advance to the NCAA Championships held in West Lafayette May 28-21, and ASU with two rounds to go is five shots out of tenth and is tied for 17th with four teams.

In a vote of the league's eight head coaches, ARIZONA STATE swept almost every award and placed six on the Pac-10 All-Conference first team. Outfielder Kaitlin Cochran was named the Pacific-10 Conference Softball Player of the Year and the Sun Devil's Katie Burkhart was named Pitcher of the Year. Freshman Krista Donnenwirth was named Newcomer of the Year, while ASU second basemen Mindy Cowles and STANFORD catcher Rosey Neill were both awarded Co-Defensive Player of the Year honors. Coach of the Year was awarded to Arizona State's Clint Myers, Commissioner Tom Hansen announced today.
