ESCONDIDO (3-13-12) — A controversial call on a play at the plate went against Bonita Vista, then Torrey Pines squeezed across the decisive run during the international tiebreaker, allowing the undefeated Falcons (7-0) to capture the annual Cougar Classic, 2-1, Monday (Mar. 12) night at Kit Carson Park.

Torrey Pines first downed Steele Canyon in the Gold bracket semifinals, 12-2, before pitcher Taylor Lee bested the Barons by proving viable with her bat and arm.

During the ITB of the finale, Lee squeezed home Lauren Filicia in the top half of the inning, then the senior struck out two batters and threw out the placed runner to cap the annual premier event to kickoff the softball season.

Against Steele Canyon, Falcons pitcher Rachel Nasland struck out seven Cougars in the opening three innings, while the offense stole seven bases to race to a run-rule triumph.

Steele Canyon matcher MOLLY HUTCHISON went 2-for-3 with an RBI, while ALYSSA MASCARI's triple brought home the other run for the Cougars (4-1).

Bonita Vista (4-1-1), down 4-0, came back in its semifinal to take a 6-4 decision over Carlsbad, a team expected to be the CIF San Diego Section's top-ranked team when the initial U-T San Diego rankings is released Tuesday (it only counts ballgames through Saturday).
