They couldn’t derail the freight train.
The 11/12 little league all-star softball squad from Anacortes is an undefeated juggernaut, and it rolled to a district crown Tuesday as expected.
But that doesn’t mean the combined forces of Whidbey went down easily.
The Pirates, a squad comprised of players from North, Central and South Whidbey, may have lost 13-5, bringing an end to their season, but they came as close as any team has this year to upending Anacortes.
Whidbey was the only team Anacortes didn’t 10-run this year, and the sluggers from The Rock avoided that fate twice in less than a week.
Coupeville ace Scout Smith did as much as she could in the pitcher’s circle Tuesday, whiffing five.
Smith and fellow Wolves Marenna Rebischke-Smith and Thora Iverson all collected RBIs in the loss as Whidbey finished the district tourney with a 2-2 record.
