Norco (24-3) and its group of outstanding hitters was awarded the No. 1 seed on Saturday for the 16-team Southern Section Division 1 softball playoffs that begin Thursday. Wild-card games are Tuesday.
The Cougars scored 41 runs in their last two games under coach Rick Robinson. They also have two wins this season over No 2-seeded Los Alamitos.
Robinson said he believes the tournament “is absolutely wide open.”
There’s not a single pitcher who can be counted on to be dominant each and every game, though Huntington Beach’s Zoe Prystajko, a Stanford commit, has certainly won some big games.
“If you run into a hot pitcher, you could lose,” Robinson said. “On any given day, anyone can beat anyone.”
Moorpark received the No. 1 seed in Division 2, which is a 32-team bracket.
In boys’ lacrosse, L.A. Loyola received the No. 1 seed in Division 1 and will begin action on Thursday at home against Agoura.
In girls’ lacrosse, Santa Ana Foothill is seeded No. 1 and will play host to Manhattan Beach Mira Costa on Monday in an opening match.
