The Pacific Little League Softball all star team notched another victory at the state Little League tournament, defeating Magnolia 3-0 Thursday. The win puts Pacific into the Friday championship vs. Issaquah.

According to team manager George Marsh, because it is a double-elimination tournament, Pacific will have to beat Issaquah in back-to-back games to win the tournament. The team accomplished the same feat to win the district tourney in late June, beating Mill Creek 4-3 and 6-4 in back-to-back contests, Marsh said.

The winner of Friday’s championship goes to the Little League softball regionals in San Bernardino, California.

Pacific lost its first-round game to Issaquah, 5-1, last weekend. The team has avoided elimination by winning all of its games so far, setting up the rematch

The first game is at 5 p.m. Friday in Des Moines. If Pacific is victorious, the second game vs. Issaquah will be at 7:30 p.m.
