| + | |||
| + | <html>Anchorage For the East softball team, winning 26 straight games and capping an undefeated season with a second straight large-school state championship came with its share of emotions. | ||
| + | "I was breaking down in tears," said East pitcher Sydney Smith. "I love the game so much, I was crying." | ||
| + | Smith pitched a complete game in the championship, a 10-2 win over Lathrop at Cartee Fields, where East had to beat The Malemutes twice to claim the crown Saturday. | ||
| + | Both teams started the day undefeated,[http://nigari.info/cgi-bin/akane/joyful.cgi?page=0%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520Re How effective is SEO], with the tournament's double-elimination format pitting them against each other in the morning. The Thunderbirds (26-0) prevailed 6-5 in the early game to advance to the championship. Lathrop (21-2) dropped into the losers bracket, where it beat Juneau 7-6 to earn another shot at East. | ||
| + | To win it all, Lathrop needed to beat East twice consecutively in the afternoon, but that scenario became all but moot in the bottom of the fourth inning,[http://www.frbiz.com/products/j-37177487/ipad_cover_cgi_005.html A Few Recommendations On Losing Weight], when East erupted for seven runs. The rally, highlighted by a three-run double from Taria Page, turned a 2-2 tie into a 9-2 East advantage. | ||
| + | East had already taken a 3-2 lead when the imposing Page stepped to the plate with the bases loaded. Page already had one hit to show for two scorching grounders in her previous two at-bats, and she gave East a 6-2 lead when she ripped another hard grounder up the middle that rolled all the way to the center-field fence before anyone from Lathrop could get a hand on it. Morgan Hill, Carrie Sauerbrey and Smith all drove in runs to complete the outburst. | ||
| + | Page drew a walk in her next at-bat and came around to score on a single from Hill in the bottom of the sixth, bringing a mercy rule into effect and ending the game. | ||
| + | "After the first game we played with them, it was really nerve-wracking," Sauerbrey said. "Everyone's emotions were just nervous and excited." | ||
| + | Sauerbrey and Marissa Davidson were the only seniors on a team with four freshmen, five sophomores and two juniors, so playing their last game with the Thunderbirds contributed to an emotional day. | ||
| + | "This is a young team and they are gonna go far in the next two or three years," Davidson said. "We just knew that we wanted to come undefeated and we have a lot of strong players. We have faith in our team, that's what it comes down to." | ||
| + | East coach Paul Schoenborn showed faith in his offense's ability to score when he told Smith to intentionally walk in a tying run in the third inning. East led 1-0 in the top of the third when Lathrop loaded the bases with no outs and Kacey Duffield coming to the plate. Duffield had already been intentionally walked in her first at-bat and East didn't hesitate to walk her again. | ||
| + | "Paul, he knows what he's talking about," Smith said. "Kacey is a big hitter, so I knew if we walked her,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/MLB-Size-Caps-006-10622/ MLB Size Caps-006], we'd be able to get the next couple outs. I wasn't really worried about it, 'cause I trust him." | ||
| + | Duffield's walk brought Yvonne Sam home to tie the score at 1-1, and a hit from Salena Maxwell brought in another run to give the Malemutes a 2-1 lead. The lead was short-lived. East bounced right back to tie it at 2-2 on an RBI-double from Hill in the bottom of the third. | ||
| + | "East Anchorage, they're not defending state champion for no reason, they're a classy, tough team,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/2011-2012-Club-Manchester-United-14-Chicharito-red-Jerseys-7879/ 2011-2012 Club Manchester United 14 Chicharito red Jerseys]," Lathrop coach Bill Duffield said. | ||
| + | East was the only team to notch wins against Lathrop, which came into the state tournament on a 20-game winning streak and had won the Railbelt Conference for the first time in school history. | ||
| + | "I just can't be more proud of a group of girls," Bill Duffield said. "We were thinking about a conference and a state championship and we got one out of the two. I can't complain about that." | ||

| + | Four-peat for Sitka | ||
| + | Sitka didn't run into many obstacles on its way to a fourth straight small-schools softball championship, at least not until Ketchikan made things tough on the Wolves in Saturday's championship game at Cartee Fields. | ||
| + | Sitka (20-4), which won by at least four runs in its three previous tournament games,[http://www2s.biglobe.ne.jp/~h-tanaka/apri/i/bbs/bbs.cgi?res=2737 Good old ram in addition to Computer], escaped with a 7-6 win in the title game, breaking a 6-6 tie with a run in the seventh and final inning. | ||
| + | The win was Sitka's second over Ketchikan (16-7) on Saturday. The Wolves won a morning game 12-8 to send Ketchikan to the losers bracket, but the Kings stayed alive with a 9-0 thumping of Homer. | ||
| + | Had Ketchikan found a way to beat Sitka in the championship game, an if-necessary game would have ensued to determine a champion. | ||
| + | Sitka's championship run also included a 13-5 win over Kodiak in the first round, a 16-1 win over Eielson. The Wolves, who also won a state title in 2005, have reached the small-school state title game for five straight seasons. | ||
