The Gavilan Lady Rams won their 20th game with a 4-1 victory
over San Francisco City College on Wednesday afternoon in San
Francisco. It marks the first time a Gavilan softball team has won
20 games in a season since 1988. The Lady Rams are just the fifth
Gavilan team to win 20, and finish the season 20-17 overall and
11-12 in the Coast Conference South (good for third place). The
Lady Rams must now cross their fingers and hope they secure an
at-large berth in the Northern California junior college
playoffs.
