The Preps / Scott Howard-Cooper : Newport Harbor Is No. 1, for Now
A team's worst nightmare became reality for the Calabasas Viewpoint softball team last Thursday, when its pitchers gave up 49 walks and 62 runs in three innings in a 62-1 loss to Simi Lutheran. Yukako Ogoshi was 2 for 2 with a grand slam, 2 walks and 8 runs batted in for Simi Lutheran--in the first inning. "I've never been involved in anything like it before," Simi Lutheran Coach Warren Bottino said afterward. "I put in all the reserves in the first inning, and they played the whole game. Girls who hadn't caught a ball in a year were catching screaming liners. It was just that kind of game." The Heritage League has a 10-run mercy rule, but it goes into effect after the third inning.
Samantha Toomey, the daughter of former Olympic decathlon champion Bill Toomey, has long jumped 18-2 and triple jumped 36-7 1/2, both good marks, as a junior at Mission Viejo Capistrano Valley. . . . Butch Taylor, who guided the Mission Viejo Trabuco Hills basketball team to an 18-6 record last season in the school's second year of existence, has resigned. No replacement was named.
