SOFTBALL
4A District 1/2 Tournament
At Phil Johnson Ballfields
Championship (both to state)
Jackson 2, Bothell 1
EVERETT — Solo homers from leadoff hitters in the first and seventh innings were the two high-octane offensive plays that Jackson needed to knock off previously undefeated Bothell in a heavyweight showdown on Friday night at the Phil Johnson Ballfields.
The No. 2 seeded Timberwolves softball team escaped with a 2-1 win over the Cougars to claim the 4A District 1/2 Tournament championship.
On the first at-bat of the contest, junior shortstop Rachel Sysum, a Fresno State commit, caught the Cougars off guard and whacked a solo shot to left field on a 2-2 count. She went 3-for-3 at the plate in the game, adding a stolen base.
Junior and UNLV signee Yanina Sherwood started for Jackson (21-1), helping blank Bothell (24-1) from the first-through-fifth innings, before giving up one run in the sixth. She struck out six, walked one and allowed six hits in a full showing in the circle as the Cougars didn’t get a leadoff hitter on base until the fifth inning.

EVERETT — Kamiak’s opening-round 6-5 loss to Eastlake on Monday in the Class 4A District 1/2 Tournament was a tough pill for the Knights to swallow.
