Sunshine still on top
by Misty Volaski

Sunshine Carpets is still on top of the Ojai Valley Men's Softball Association League. With a shutout and two convincing wins last week, the team seems nearly invincible in league.
Though Rowe had to forfeit due to a lack of players, they still played Sunshine, only to go scoreless to Sunshine's seven runs.
In last Sunday's games, Sunshine was again at the top of its game, with a 11-6 win over Ojai Optical. Sunshine's Mike Montoya went three for three, all of which resulted in singles. Teammate Joey Vega was two for three for Sunshine. For Ojai Optical, it was all Steve Perez, who had two singles off of three at bats. Though Ojai Optical had the early lead, Sunshine came back in the fifth inning, scoring six runs followed by two more in the sixth for the win, 11-6.
Chemolene/OST, currently in fifth overall (7-4), knocked Rowe around for an 18-2 win. Chemolene/OST player Tony Hart led the game with three singles and three RBIs on the day, while Rocky Colburn added two singles, a double and an RBI. Mike Gates followed, singling and doubling and contributing two RBIs.
