  • Senior Men's ACI: Sanchez...

    Bruce Takala started off Saturday’s final match like gangbusters.

    Takala topped 2007 senior’s champion Eddie Sanchez on the eighth and ninth holes, where the pair started, to grab a 2-hole lead.

    But it wouldn’t stay that way for long.

    Sanchez scored back-to-back pars on the 10th and 11th holes and would eventually go up to stay, holding on for a 3 and 1 victory in Saturday’s Atomic City Invitational senior’s final.

  • Women's ACI: Anast takes...

    Sarah Anast was quick to give a shout out after her win Saturday.

    “Emily helped me a lot,” Anast said, talking about her caddy Emily Fortgang. “She kept my mind off golf. I didn’t have to think about it and about what I was doing. I know I can play, I just had to go out and do it.”

    Anast trailed big early to her opponent in the women’s Atomic City Invitational final, Anita Dunmar, but got on a roll to cut into that lead. Anast would hold on at the final hole to take a 1-up victory Saturday.

  • Baseball: LA wins District 1 All...

    Austin Aslin got plenty more help than he’d need Tuesday night.

    Aslin, pitching for the Los Alamos Juniors All-Stars, retired the first seven hitters he faced and allowed just one run as Los Alamos routed Pojoaque Valley 14-1 to take the District 1 baseball tournament Tuesday.

    Behind Aslin, who threw a complete mercy rule-shortened game, Los Alamos pounded out 11 hits in the five innings, opening up a 9-0 edge after just an inning and a half.

    “After we got the lead, we felt pretty confident we’d pull it out,” Aslin said.

  • Baseball: White Rock bounced by...

    With a big first two at-bats, the White Rock Little League Juniors All-Stars looked to have Tuesday’s elimination game under control.

    But the Pojoaque Valley All-Stars simply wouldn’t go away.

    Pojoaque would come back not only from a 6-0 deficit, but would erase a late 8-6 White Rock advantage to win 9-8 in the District 1 Juniors tournament at Virchow Field.

    The win puts Pojoaque into a playoff with Los Alamos for the District 1 championship and the right to advance to the state Juniors playoffs.

    Los Alamos and Pojoaque will meet tonight at 6:30 p.m.
