Coin flips to
decide two OIA softball
playoff spots


Star-Bulletin staff

TEN teams have clinched berths in the 12-team Oahu Interscholastic Association softball playoffs. The other two participants will be decided today by flips of a coin.

Campbell, Waipahu and Nanakuli all finished the OIA Western Division regular season at 4-5. Since Campbell beat Nanakuli during the regular season and Nanakuli beat Waipahu and Waipahu beat Campbell, the tiebreaking coin flips take place at 7 p.m. at Radford.

Nanakuli beat Aiea, 6-3, yesterday, and the other two teams lost to forge the three-way tie for fifth place in the West.

Mililani edged Campbell, 2-1 on Adrienne Kasaoka's two-run double. The Trojans finished 9-0 and won the West championship.

Pearl City, Waianae and Leilehua are also in the playoffs.

In the Eastern Division, Roosevelt upset Castle, 4-2, to knock the Knights from a first-place tie.

Kailua downed Kalaheo, 13-0, to finish 9-1 and take the East title.

Kaimuki topped Kalani, 11-0, to wrap up a 9-1 season -- but the Surfriders won the head-to-head tiebreaker, having beaten the Bulldogs last Sunday.

Moanalua, Roosevelt and Farrington all also earned spots in the OIA tournament.

Roosevelt, Farrington, Kahuku and Kaiser all finished at 5-5. The Rough Riders secured a playoff berth because they had the most championship points -- which are awarded for each win, depending on where the opponent is in the standings.

The win against the Knights gave the Rough Riders the highest-quality win among the four teams in contention, and put them over the top. The Governors took the final spot because of a win over the Menehunes on Dec. 13.
