It's going to be exciting for the Bulldogs, Bears and Pioneers who seek a CIF Southern Section championship.

The Bears scored two runs in the eighth on a homer by Chloe Centeno and Stevie Dabbadie fans 12 and allows six hits over eight innings.

The Bulldogs are 3-1 after beating the Eagles 5-0 in a nonleague match.

Lujano certainly got the job done Tuesday, as she finished with three hits and drove in three runs to power host Burbank to a 13-2 nonleague win against South Pasadena at windy McCambridge Park.

A onetime Burroughs softball player, Kaynan Chrysikos is now a fulltime student at UC Irvine and doing extremely well.

It’s an intense John Burroughs High School varsity softball game. Catcher, Rachel Little, is engaged in the game, watching the field where her teammates are ready and in position. Their cleats are pressed into the field’s dirt, mitts up and ready, waiting for Little to call the pitch and end the inning. In the stands are parents, classmates, and a 10-year-old girl named Skylar Celli-Recht, holding a handmade “Go #2 Rachel” sign and cheering on her favorite player.
