Ocean View falls to Godinez

The Ocean View High softball team took on Godinez in a nonleague game Tuesday and errors early in the matchup cost the Seahawks who lost to the visiting Grizzlies, 9-4.

Coach Liberty McCollum said Jasmine Tapia and Cailey Coilado gave strong offensive performances for the Seahawks, the fifth-ranked team in CIF Southern Section Division 4 who are now 7-3 overall.

“Spring break couldn’t come at a better time,” McCollum said. “The girls need time off the field to rest and come back ready to start league.”

Ocean View is back in action next Tuesday hosting Lakewood St. Joseph in a 3:15 p.m. nonleague game.

Other local teams are involved in tournament action during spring break. Edison, Fountain Valley and Marina are competing at the Alan Dugard Classic which ends Saturday at Bill Barber Community Park in Irvine, and Huntington Beach begins play Friday at the Arroyo Grande Softball by the Beach Tournament.
