The Eureka Loggers will get the chance to defend their Charles Lakin H-DNL Tournament title on Friday, but it wasn’t an easy road back to the championship game.
The Hoopa Valley girls, who have been very impressive down the stretch of the season, made the Loggers fight for it all the way in Thursday’s semifinal at the Arcata Sports Complex, before eventually falling 4-2.
“Hoopa’s an incredible team,” Eureka co-head coach Katelyn Graeser said afterwards. “If they were in the Big 5, they would definitely be competing for the top three.”
It was the second straight year the Division-V Hoopa girls lost to the Division-III Eureka girls in the tournament by just two runs.
