Girls’ Athletes of the Week : SOFTBALL

The Madison High School softball team has established itself as one of the county’s best. Debbie Corbett is a main reason why.

Corbett, a senior, won three games last week to help improve her’s and Madison’s record to 5-0.

Corbett threw a two-hitter in a 2-0 victory over Monte Vista. She then got the victory in relief as Madison rallied to defeat Fountain Valley La Quinta, 5-4.

In the victory over La Quinta, Corbett hit two solo home runs.

Corbett finished her busy week with a three-hitter in a 1-0 victory over Thousand Oaks, one of the Southern Section’s best teams.

San Dieguito High’s Jaime Butler, a junior transfer from Ventura County, made a successful debut in Saturday’s 35th Mustang Relays at San Dieguito.

Butler competed in three invitation races and won two, the mile and two-mile. She was named the outstanding athlete of the girls’ division, and her effort helped the Mustangs finish second among eight schools in Division I. Mt. Carmel, also of the Palomar League, won both the girls’ and boys’ titles.

Lynn Patrick, a junior from Serra, won the San Diego Section high jump title last year with a jump of 5-feet 6-inches.

Patrick, still receiving therapy on a recently sprained left ankle, jumped 5-7 to win the high jump at the Tiger Relays at Glen Broderick Field Saturday.
