A switch in game venues couldn't stop a determined Marina High softball team from earning a big road victory.
The Vikings improved to 3-0 in Sunset League action and are in first place following a 10-0 mercy-rule win at Edison. The teams were scheduled to play at Marina, but a water-pipe problem at the Vikings' home field forced the game to be moved to Edison.
The Vikings had their offense in high gear. A 12-hit attack was led by Sydnee Cable, Desiree Hagberg and Samantha Agamaite each of whom hit a two-run home run, and Emili Olague, who went four for four with three runs batted in.
Junior pitcher Tera Blanco also was on her game and threw a one-hitter with eight strikeouts.
"My team was so focused and pumped," Marina Coach Shelly Luth said after her team improved to 18-2 overall.
The loss put Edison at 2-1 in league and 12-6 overall. The Chargers were coming off a second-place finish in the championship bracket of the Woodbridge Tournament, where they went 4-1. Lizabelle Talataina, Karley Wester and Kiana Pancino made the all-tournament team.
