The Academy Cougars and Guam High Panthers took care of business Tuesday afternoon, winning their respective high school girls softball semifinal games.
The Cougars exploded for 18 runs in only two innings, taking out the Tiyan Titans 18-1 in only 2 1/2 innings due to the 15-run rule.
Isabella Dangan was near perfect in the three innings of pitching and also had a 3-run in-the-park homer in the first inning to guide the offensive explosion. Jeneva Guerrero and Noelle Chun also had big run-scoring hits for Academy.
The Panthers had an easy time as well, taking out the Sanchez Sharks 10-2.
Leadoff hitter Morgan Piehl and catcher Lelani Westlund paved the way for the Panthers offense while pitcher Brinnlyn Hardt did her part to hold down the Sharks.
Championship Saturday
The showdown takes place this Saturday at 2 p.m. at the Okkodo baseball field. The regular season game between the two was a classic with the Cougars edging the Panthers 9-7.
