Softball: Simi Valley picks up first hit; Valencia still ahead, 1-0

Simi Valley has yet to really figure out Valencia pitcher Jessica Spigner, who figures to be a third baseman -- not a pitcher -- at the next level. The Pioneer's did get a hit, their first of the game, but no more.

Heading into the top of the fourth, Valencia is holding on to a 1-0 lead in the Southern Section-Toyota Division I championship game at Barber Park in Irvine.
