Willcox has reached the winners bracket final of the Little League Softball West Regional at San Bernardino, Calif., following Sunday’s 2-0 win over Hawaii behind another standout pitching performance by Hattie Macumber.

Macumber allowed one hit while striking out 10 and walking one in her complete-game effort. This follows her three-hit shutout with 11 strikeouts and one walk in a 2-0 win over Nevada on Saturday.

Macumber threw 96 pitches in the game against Hawaii with 70 being strikes.

Josey Benavides and Daylin Medrano each had RBI singles for Willcox, which will play Northern California in the winners backet final on Wednesday at 7 p.m. on ESPN-Plus.

The championship game is Friday at 5:45 p.m. on ESPN. There is not an “if necessary” game if the team from the winners bracket loses in the championship.

The winner of the West Regional advances to the Little League Softball World Series at Greenville, N.C. on Aug. 4-11.
