Prep softball: Mesa rallies past Uni

COSTA MESA - Costa Mesa High sophomore Laura Ramos singled in two

runs to cap a three-run sixth inning as the Mustangs rallied for a 5-3

Pacific Coast League softball victory Thursday over visiting University

at TeWinkle Park.

Ramos also added outstanding defense at third base, filling in for

Michelle Nguyen, who is out with an ankle injury.

Kelly Daub had two hits and scored two runs for the Mustangs (5-7, 2-0 in

league), who visit Northwood Tuesday for a probable PCL first-place

showdown.

Brooke Shanley had three strikeouts to even her pitching record at 4-4.
