Softball: Newport Harbor wins opener
COSTA MESA - Lauren Gallardo’s grand slam in the top of the sixth
inning sparked Newport Harbor High’s softball team to a, 11-3 comeback
win over Estancia in pool-play action at the Costa Mesa Tournament.
The grand slam led the Sailors to a seven-run sixth inning, followed by a
three-run seventh, turning a 3-1 deficit into a lopsided win.
Athena Vasquez had three hits, two runs scored and two RBIs, while
Lindsay Moore added two hits and a run scored.
The Sailors will play at Saddleback High in nonleague action on Tuesday
before resuming Costa Mesa Tournament action Wednesday at home against
Santa Ana.
