Tigers stay atop Coast League standings


May 23 2008

The Issaquah Little League 9-10-year-old Coast Softball Tigers beat the Eastlake Huskies 9-3 last Saturday in an extremely competitive contest.

The Tigers were led by Michelle Fowler’s 4 1/3 innings of outstanding pitching. Fowler also helped the team offensively by going 2-for-2 with an RBI and scoring two runs.

The Tigers victory came together with great offensive and defensive efforts by Ellie Hendrickson, Hannah McMullin, Sara Bruner, Sarah Jordan, Michelle Gersuk, Emily Winterstein and Dominique Shells.

The Huskies battled hard, behind pitchers Simpson and Russo, but their offense was held scoreless until the fifth inning.

Closer Michelle Gersuk, earned the save, bringing the Tigers to a 3-1 season record against the Huskies and a 7-1 record overall.
