On Tuesday, she dueled with Marina ace Mia Valbuena, a senior who signed with Michigan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a really hard challenge,\u201d Brooks said of beating Marina, the reigning CIF-SS Division 3 champion. \u201cPlaying in the championship last year showed me that there\u2019s a lot at stake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brooks praised the Griffins\u2019 energy in the dugout and chemistry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe dugout comes first,\u201d she said, \u201c(and) having each other\u2019s backs and passing the bat.\u201d<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Los Alamitos used a team-oriented approach to score both of its runs.<\/p>\n<p>In the seventh, senior Faith Pulsifer drew a two-out walk with the bases loaded to score Julia Gordon for a 2-0 lead. Pulsifer stepped to the plate after Marina intentionally walked cleanup batter Erin Denny with the count 1-1.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=237\">Doheny campground upgrades would accompany desal project construction<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHer being selfless, it just shows what this team is all about,\u201d Weil said of Pulsifer.<\/p>\n<p>Los Alamitos also scored with two outs in the sixth.<\/p>\n<p>After Marina intentionally walked Alexis Galicia with a 2-1 count to bring Brooks to the plate with runners at first and second, Brooks singled to left. The Vikings threw home and then tried to pick off Denny rounding third but the Griffins forced an errant throw.<\/p>\n<p>Denny scored on the play.<\/p>\n<p>Los Alamitos went 0 for 10 with runners in scoring position before Brooks\u2019 single.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou put pressure on teams and you force them to make plays,\u201d Weil said. \u201c(Denny) was definitely hung out (off third). I did not do a good job as a coach to stop her early enough but it worked out to our advantage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Weil, a seven-time section championship coach, became emotional afterward. The Griffins won their fourth consecutive league title and 11th in his tenure.<\/p>\n<p>They have featured four new infielders and a catcher this season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHard works pay off. It doesn\u2019t matter what you do in life,\u201d he said. \u201cI just kept telling them \u2018Just believe. Keep believing in what we\u2019re doing.\u2019 \u201c<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI get emotional because I know what they put into this,\u201d the coach added of his players.<\/p>\n<p>Valbuena allowed one earned run on four hits. She had 10 strikeouts with six walks.<\/p>\n<p>Marina co-coach Dan Hay said his team battled nerves as it aimed for its first league title since 2019. \u201cWe\u2019re a strong team,\u201d he said. \u201cWe were 10-0 (in league) going into Huntington (Beach last week) and we ended losing that game 2-1.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe league championship was more important to us this year than going back-to-back at CIF,\u201d the coach added. \u201cIt really was.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=224\">Jon\u2019s Fish Market in Dana Point announces closure after 46 years<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brooks pitches a two-hitter and has a key single to lead Los Alamitos to its fourth consecutive league title.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":240,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-255","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-verified-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
