Priscilla Sarmiento scored on a throwing error in the 11th inning to lead Cypress College to a 1-0 victory Saturday over Moorpark in the championship game of a Southern California regional softball tournament at Cypress.

Sarmiento and Jackie Boxley reached base on infield singles to start the inning. Nikkanni Andrews then hit a slow bouncer to third, and Moorpark’s Tausha Pico threw wildly to first, enabling Sarmiento to score the winning run.

The game marked the third between the teams Saturday. Moorpark lost to Cypress, 2-1, then eliminated Grossmont, 8-0. Then, with Moorpark needing to beat Cypress twice to advance to the state playoffs, the teams split a pair of 1-0 decisions.
