    • June 5, 2025

    University’s softball team waited an extra day but still notched another historic victory Wednesday.

    Carson Cruz pitched a complete game and Leighton Lee sparked the offense as the Trojans defeated visiting Marquez of Huntington Park 5-3 in a Division IV first round game in the CIF Southern California Regional.

    University (17-10) notched its first regional victory in school history after the game was suspended Tuesday because of lightning, thunder and heavy rain at University.

    Cruz, a junior, pitched her sixth complete game of the postseason to improve to 14-9.

    Lee had a bunt in the second inning that led to a pair of runs scoring. The sophomore scored herself the third and later added an RBI single as University opened a 5-0 lead.

    The Trojans advanced to play at No. 2 seed Woodlake of Tulare County in the semifinals Thursday at 4 p.m.

    University is making its regional debut after capturing Division 6 for its first CIF-SS title.

    In other results, Poway defeated Ayala 4-1 in Division I to advance to Thursday’s semifinal at No. 1 El Modena.
