They kept calling it a gem: Chase Kairis's pitching last Thursday night, in the playoff run-up to the Kingco Championship Friday, halted the opposing Mercer Island Islanders, 5-0, with help from the Mount Si defense's fast hands. Running off the physical effects of firing 93 pitches, 63 of them strikes, after the game, the humble Kairis stops to explain how he focused on getting the job done, and trying to stay cool in an exciting place: Bannerwood Park in the postseason. It felt great to be at Bannerwood, in Bellevue, one again, with the top calibre, the senior said. "You just get a great feeling and start going."

She expects to play second base with a chance to beat out the shortstop. A staffer saw her when Crowe, as a Ladyhawks club member, went to an exposure tournament in Texas last year.
