National takes Junior softball title

By Tim Clinton

It was a case of it's us or it's them.

Federal Way National and Puyallup's South Hill went at it in a two-team District 10 Junior Softball All-Star Tournament with Federal Way prevailing in two games.

National Little League defeated South Hill by a 12-1 score in the winner's bracket final -- and first round game -- Monday before taking the championship, 15-4, in Tuesday action at the Federal Way National Complex.

Since National won both games to open, Wednesday's if-necessary second championship game was not necessary to decide the issue.

The Federal Way team is coached by Ryan Berg and the players are Jaelyn Barnum, Lila Berg, Isabel Blase, Tatum Callaway, Elizabeth Figgins, Claire Foster, Adrienne Koontz, Brooklyn Newnom, Marisol Pineda, Jordin Prum, Mallory Robson and Meleane Siu.

As the District 10 champions, National qualifies for the Washington state tournament that opens July 1 in Vancouver.
