LAKESIDE (5-19-13) — When baseball lowered the pitching mound from 15 to 9 inches, predictably, run production increased. The same occurred in softball when the rubber in the pitching circle was pushed back to 43 feet.

Still, every once in a while, softball can still conjure up an old-fashioned, 1-0 pitchers' duel.

For just the seventh time in 59 postseason games during the CIF San Diego Section championships, only one run crossed the plate, as El Capitan slipped past Our Lady of Peace in Saturday's (May 18) winners’ bracket semifinals.

DELANIE GOURLEY posted the shutout for the Vaqueros, striking out 12 Pilots in spinning a 3-hitter. The senior left-hander topped OLP pitcher Lauren Brown, a sophomore, who also allowed just three basehits.

BALBOA PARK (5-18-13) — Ten East County teams have earned berths in the San Diego CIF baseball playoffs that begin on Tuesday (May 21) at various sites.

Open Division competitors in the elite section eight from the East County are Granite Hills (22-8) and Helix (15-14). They do not have a play-in round as do the other five divisions. They draw a bye and do not resume play until Wednesday (May 22) when the No. 2 seeded Eagles host Torrey Pines (13-17) and Helix travels to No. 3 La Costa Canyon (20-10).

'Golden Gun' quarterbacks seek to advance

EL CAJON (5-21-13) — Many of California’s top prep quarterbacks heading into the 2013 season gathered in Santa Clara on Friday (May 17) seeking recognition and perhaps gain an invite to this year’s Elite 11 finals in Beaverton, Ore.

At the conclusion of the nearly four-hour event, which attracted more than 90 quarterbacks, eight of the players were selected to participate in coach Trent Dilfer’s two-minute drill, and then seven were handed “Golden Gun” jerseys.
