Well represented in the championships, Tehachapi little league reeled in impressive results that produced three area champions and district final appearances in six divisions of baseball/softball, including one overall champion to end the District 51 playoffs last week.
The Tehachapi Little League also had six Tehachapi teams in area final games out of 10 slots available to end an exciting playoff season.
Senior/Junior Division
The Cubs went in as the no.1 seed for Tehachapi and dropped a heartbreaker in seven innings to Kern River in a 14-13 loss, while the Angels were clipped by Mojave by a 15-8 score to end the year for both teams.
In softball action, the Angels and Inferno dominated the playoff bracket, with the Angels blasting Cal City 11-1 and the Inferno besting Mojave 7-0, with the two teams then colliding in the North-Area championship. The Inferno won the championship contest 16-8 to reach the district finals, where they were knocked out by Parkview in a 12-6 loss.
Major Division
The major cubs ended a dream district season with a thrilling championship victory in the finals, coming back from a deficit to win 3-2 over Quartz Hill. The Cubs defeated Rosamond 4-0, Mojave 13-0, and the Tehachapi Giants 7-6 to reach the final game. The Giants defeated Cal City 9-2 and Rosamond 3-0 to reach the North Area Finals.
The Major Heat softball squad took a victory with a 6-0 victory over Cal City to highlight action in the girls major playoff bracket, while the Lady Warriors were also participants in the division.
Upper Minor Division
Another Cubs team from Tehachapi struck gold in inner-city play in District 51, with the upper minor Tehachapi #1 team winning the North Area championship and clinching a birth in the district championship game. The Cubs defeated Boron 22-1, Kern River 13-3, and Rosamond 11-6 to reach the final game against Quartz Hill.
