Escanaba Jr. Girls Cruise To District Championship
ESCANABA----The Escanaba Junior Girls (age 13-14) are headed downstate!
Anna Burch at the plate Sunday.
All three games in the districts ended on the ten-run mercy rule, and now the girls are headed to the state finals at Pinery Park. And that Grand Rapids-area Little League complex is familiar to many of these Escanaba girls, as they competed there in the Major Softball State Finals last summer. On Sunday, pitchers Sam Connor, Callie Heller, and Katie Ross combined to throw a one-hitter. Escanaba had nine base hits in the game.

We will post the girls' schedule for the state tournament when it becomes available. |
