Healthy Hillers helped by Renaldi's pitching, grand slam

EL CAJON (5-13-08) -- A long season plagued by nagging injuries may leave the Grossmont Foothillers on the fence in acquiring an SDCIF playoff berth when pairings are announced Thursday afternoon. But for one day at least, some of the walking wounded can look back at one solid performance.

On Monday's (May 12) Senior Day at "the top of the Grossmont summit," senior ASHLEY RENALDI not only pitched a 4-hitter, she drove in all of her team's runs with a grand slam, powering the Foothillers past El Capitan, 4-1, on the penultimate day of the Grossmont North League season.

"It's not a coincidence -- Ashley is healthy and she pitched well," said Hillers coach JERRY LERUD. "Everything was working today."

LAKESIDE (5-11-08) — The late Alfred Hitchcock, the master of motion picture mystery, would love this script – the final chapter in the Grossmont Conference pennant races.

Talk about suspense . . . Doesn’t get much closer than the Grossmont South and Grossmont North league races. If you’re looking for a sure winner, pick another league. These circuits are bound to end up in co- or even tri-championships.
