The Thunderbird Huskies girl softball team defeated the Thunderbird Wildcats 18-15 in a wild, extra-inning game to claim the Mercer Island, Issaquah and Bellevue City Championship for the Majors Division LL softball league on June 16.

After six innings of play and the game tied at 14-14, the championship was sent into extra-frames. It would be the top of the 10th before the Huskies scored four runs to take a 18-14 lead and hung on to win 18-15.

Brooke Baumgartner went 3-for-4 and was a triple short of hitting for the cycle as she drove in five RBIs. Maggie Pana went 5-for-5 and Nicole Boyd went 4-for-5 for the Huskies as well.

Kathryn Wood was the winning pitcher. The game lasted two hours and 45 minutes.
