Powered by hot pitching, solid defense and a newly won $5,000 grant from the City Council, a group of Newbury Park softball players is heading to Colorado for a national tournament next week. The tournament, and the unexpected windfall of city support, have topped off a memorable year for the 16-and-younger all-star team. Recruited mainly from teams in the Newbury Park Girls Softball Assn.
