EL CAJON – The Fletcher Hills Little League 11-12 All-Stars rallied for an 11-7 victory over Santana National in the District 41 Tournament on Wednesday evening.

Alpine American’s KADE GAEIR homered for the second time in the tournament in a 4-0 win over El Cajon Western on Tuesday.

District 33
JOJO AGUAN singled to drive in CHARLIE CARSON to tie the game as Lake Murray went on to an 8-1 victory over La Mesa National on Thursday night for the second-straight win in the District 33 tournament.
Lake Murray and La Mesa National both dropped their opener, but picked up wins to set up the elimination showdown between the La Mesa leagues.
On Wednesday, La Mesa National defeated Serra Mesa, 15-13.
The game was tied 3-3 after one inning, but La Mesa National’s CAIDEN LINDSAY hit for the cycle in the wild contest.
Lindsay hit a three-run home run in the second inning.
Earlier, he doubled in the first before hitting a single in the fourth. So he needs a triple in the fifth, and he hits one under the glove of the center fielder to complete the cycle.
In the fifth, he hit the ball past the try of the center fielder for a triple.
Serra Mesa scored eight runs in the bottom of the sixth for a near-devastating rally for LMN, but Lindsay got the final out on the mound.
