PHOENIX – Senior Megan Ellsworth struck out 16 hitters, leading Benson to a 1-0 victory Saturday against Phoenix Northwest Christian in the Class 2A softball title game at the Rose Mofford Sports Complex in Phoenix.
It was Benson’s second title in three years.
“I don’t even keep track of them,” Ellsworth said of the strikeouts. “I just work as hard as I can and do whatever I can for my team.”
Kayla Haro knocked in Shalena Solic with the game’s only run in the top of the second inning.
Benson finished 35-1. Northwest Christian, the defending 2A champion, closes the season at 22-4.
