On Tuesday, August 16th, the Diamond Bar City Council took time to recognize Diamond Bar Girls Softball, presenting each of the players who represented our City in the California State tournament in Lancaster last month with a certificate of appreciation.  Players from the 8U, 10U, and 14U teams were in attendance.  It is certainly a special occasion to make it to the State tournament.  For three teams from a single league to make it is something that happens only rarely.  Great job ladies!

FROM THE AGENDA:
1. SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS, CERTIFICATES, PROCLAMATIONS:
...
1.2 Presentation of Certificates of Recognition to Members of the Diamond Bar Girls Softball All-Star Team (Under 8, 10 and 14 Division).


 
 
Our 8U, 10U, and 14U All-Stars made their way to "C" District State Championships this weekend.  Teams from throughout Southern California were there for opening ceremonies Friday night as each team was recognized and the girls took time to trade league pins.  Our girls fought hard.  Our 14U girls were able to hold off last year's champions until nearly the end and our 8U girls continued to dazzle with their amazing bats!  Although the 8U girls played four friendlies, they won two, and tied one.  Absolutely outstanding performance!  It's been a banner year for Diamond Bar All-Stars!  A special thanks goes out to the players, coaches, and supportive parents who made this a weekend to remember for our daughters.
 
 
After beating Covina Hills in their 10am game this morning, DB had to be Covina one additional time for the championship.  Although they were up 6-3 mid-game, Covina Hills came back to tie the game at 6-6.  Overtime started with inning seven and it wasn't until a full NINE innings where complete that Covina Hills had squeaked by with a one run victory!  This was an outstanding performance by our DB girls.  Among the highlights was a blast by Hannah Becerra that carried farthest part of the field.  Clearly a home run anywhere else, it was determined to be a ground-rule double after having been lost in the weeds!  Congratulations to Covina Hills.  Our 8U ladies will be make their next appearance in two weeks at the State "C" Tournament in Lancaster!

Our 10U ladies beat both Whittier and Covina Hills Saturday as they battled their way towards the Disctrict Championship.  This morning they came up just short against Hacienda Heights.  Their 3rd place finish earns them an admission to the State "C" District Championships in two weeks.  Way to go DB "you know!"

Our 8U team gave the teams in Pico Rivera a run for their money this past weekend!  After beating Chino Hills 2 in the semis, they nearly took the finals from Chino Hills 1.  At one point, they were up 5-1.  Great job ladies!!!
Some pictures from this weekend's Pico Rivera All-Star Tournament are shown below.  The 10U Blue team made a valiant effort this morning against Mission Viejo but, alas, lost 5-4.  Next week is the "C"-Division Tournament in Fullerton!
