True story: Parent of Salpointe player asked me for prediction of 4A state championship with Greenway. Told him 2-1 Salpointe and Lancers would take advantage of couple of errors to score off Kaitlyn Terry. Gianna Mares proved me wrong with only one thing: she shut out Greenway.

For the fifth time in a row…your Lady Lancers are 4A State Champs after a complete team win 2-0 win over Greenway behind a complete game effort from G. Mares. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

Mares strike out pitch. Second out.

Runners on second and third, holding a 1-0 lead, Gianna Mares gets the K to end the threat in the top of the fifth.

Gianna Mares with a bunt single and then scores on a three-base throwing error that got past the right fielder all the way to the wall. Mares kept running and scored on the play. Unreal how much Mares has impacted this game in the circle and now at the plate.

.@schssoftball_ fifth straight state championship! Gianna Mares complete-game shutout allowing only two hits in the 2-0 win over Phoenix Greenway and phenom pitcher/hitter Kaitlyn Terry.
