Yessenia Perez tossed a one-hitter and D'Lani Navarro drove in three runs to lead Southwest past Varela, 13-0, in the semifinals of the district 16-6A tournament at Southridge. The Vipers bats, which produced 21 runs a day earlier, were silenced by Perez, who struck out ten and walked only one. The Lady Eagles (10-11) scored five runs in the first inning, one in the second, three in the third and four in the fourth before the 10-run rule kicked in after the top of the fifth. Navarro knocked in the second run with a first inning triple and drove in two more with a third inning single. Yesenia Fonticiella also tripled and scored in the third. Southwest will face Lourdes Thursday at 4pm at Southridge for the district championship. Varela, which committed 10 errors in the game, completes its season with a record of 5-9.
