Edmunds will be the next
foe today for Othello's Little
League all-stars when they
attempt to keep their drive for
a state title and possible
regional qualification alive in
state tournament play at
Lynnwood.
The Little Leaguers made
local history Tuesday as they
became the first Othello team
ever to win a state tournament
game with a thrilling 3-2
decision over South Highland
West of Seattle. The local
stars had qualified for the
state tournament last Satur-
day at Ephrata by breezing to
the district championship with
an 11-0 trouncing of Moses
Lake International.
The Othello team will
square off against Edmunds at
6:30 p.m. tonight in their next
action .in the 10-team single
elimination tournament.
A win tonight will qualify
them for the semi-finals at 6:30

p.m. on Friday. The cham-
pionship game is set for 3 p.m.
on Saturday.
Praised by Coach
"The kids played fantastic
ball and beat a team Tuesday
that was favored to win the
tournament," Coach Hump
Prieur reported Wednesday
morning. "The South High-
land West kids were lots
bigger than our team, but we
played them right down the
line. We now have high hopes
of going all the way in the
tournament."
Should Othello win the state
event, they would advance to
the Little League regionals
scheduled for San Bernadio,
Calif.
Prieur said Scott Preun-
inger will get the starting
assignment against Edmunds
today. Under tournament
rules, Othello will be able to
come back with Jim Sandusky,
who had a no, hitter Tuesday, if
they are in to the tournament
:i!!i: !i
and put Othello ahead to stay.
Preuninger had the only other
hit for Othello in the game.
Easy Win Saturday
Last Saturday the outcome
of the district championship
game was never in doubt after
the second inning as 'the
Othello all-stars backed up
Sandusky's two-hit pitching
with another strong hitting
and fielding performance.
DeLoach opened the bottom
of the second with a long
double down the alley in left
center and it was all Othello's
game the rest of the way. Tom
Kummer, Eddie Acosta and
Lolo Garza all followed with
singles and Preuninger,
Schlagel and Sandusky drew
walks. When the smoke had
cleared the locals had a 5-0
lead.
Kummer provided a big
boost in the third as he came
up with the defensive play of
the game. The little second
baseman went high in the air
to grab a sinking line drive and
then threw to first to double
off the surprised runner there.
Othello added another run
in the third and then piled up
four more in the fourth as
Sandusky delivered his third
home run in as many district
tournament games. The drive
cleared the fence in left center
and came with Schlagel on
base.
Sandusky held Moses Lake
hitless until the fifth inning
and then allowed only a couple
of scratch singles. He struck
out eight and walked just two
batters in the game.
No-Hitter
Sandusky had an outstand-
ing pitching performance as he
held the South Highland team
hitless and had problems only
in the fourth.
Othello took advantage of
wildness by the South High-
land pitcher to jump into a 1-0
lead in the first inning with
leadoff batter Donnie Schlagel
scoring after three straight
walks.
South Highland went in
front 2-1 in the top of the
fourth on two walks and a balk
by Sandusky, but the Othello
stars came charging right back
in their half of the inning.
Linc Burton walked and
then went to third on a double
by Sandusky. After Danny
DeLoach had walked, Tim
Stephens' double scored two
