Two week ago, Saline High School softball coach Alicia Seegert had a hunch. It came true on Saturday.

"I told them that they were going to surprise a lot of people," Seegert said.

After losing a pair of games to Monroe in the regular season, Saline beat the Trojans 6-3 in a Division 1 district title game. The Hornets reached the final by beating Ypsilanti, 7-1, in a semifinal.

"We were solid. It was amazing," Seegert said. "We've picked up the speed of the game. Halfway through the season, we were not playing at varsity speed. Now we are getting it."

Freshman Kristina Zalewski got the win in the title game, allowing six hits and striking out 12. Jenna Santure allowed four hits and struck out three against Ypsilanti.

At the plate, leadoff hitter Emily Ouellette sparked both wins. She was a combined 7-for-8 with seven runs and was a perfect 7-of-7 in stolen bases.

Kaitlin Ward was 2-for-3 with a pair of runs scored against Monroe and 2-for-4 with two RBIs against Ypsilanti.

Chelsea scored both its runs in the sixth on RBI singles from Platt andDixon, scoring Zill and Ellie Stoffer. The Bulldogs didn't threaten much outside of that.

"We had a couple hits in a row in the fifth," Bulldog coach Bob Moffett said. "That could have ended up being bases loaded, instead there were two outs. We got two people on and never got the big hit we needed."

"I'm disappointed, no doubt," Moffett said. "But 27-8, that's the best record we've had since being in the state semis in 2004. You've got to look at the bright side sometimes, too."

BASEBALL

DIVISION 2 AT JACKSON JACKSON -- Chelsea High School's hopes of winning its second straight Division 2 district title ended with a 3-0 loss to Tecumseh in the opening game at Jackson Northwest High School.

"We thought we had a great chance to win that district, but Tecumseh's Jake Moore had something different to say about that," Chelsea coach Wayne Welton said.

Moore, the winning pitcher for the Indians, gave up just five hits and earned his second shutout of the year against Chelsea. He was the only pitcher to hold the Bulldogs scoreless this season.

"We knew we could play with any of the four teams in there if we had the kind of day we're capable of having," Welton said. "The beauty of baseball is that whoever is standing on the bump can dictate the play. (Moore) got the job done for them."

Jarred Scheese pitched the first three and one-third innings for the Bulldogs, allowing all four hits. Nate Udell finished the game allowing no hits and striking out two batters. Patrick Roberts had two of Chelsea's five hits.

"I'd like to say this was a winable game, but it's hard to say when you don't score," Welton said. "We needed a timely hit here and there and we did bunch some together, but we couldn't come up with it."
