SRV coach Lori Smith did research earlier in the day to find out if the school had ever won a league title, and she believed the 2023 team would be the first to accomplish the feat. SRV coach Lori Smith tabbed seniors Shah, McLeod and Baccei as the players who set the standard for the rest of the team.Amador had its chances to score, but every hard-hit ball seemed to fly directly into the waiting mitt of an SRV defender. Even when Amador’s hitters found an opening, the Wolves’ defense kept each of their six hits to singles.
“I think the biggest positive is that it isn’t over for us yet,” Amador Valley co-head coach Courtney Hennings said after the game. “We have NCS to look forward to, and we can learn from this game.” San Ramon Valley’s seniors said they would celebrate the victory with a trip to Primo’s Pizzeria in Danville.
San Ramon Valley High’s third baseman Sophia Baccei #24 takes the throw as Amador Valley High’s Caydence Likeness #55 is safe at third during their championship game at Amador Valley High School in Pleasanton, Calif., on Thursday, May 11, 2023.
