Freshman Carmen Campi came up with the game-winning hit for the Carpinteria softball team on Thursday, lifting the Warriors to a 6-5 Frontier League victory over Malibu in the bottom of the ninth inning.
Carpinteria (9-9, 3-3) needed two runs in the ninth to win it and Nicole Pearce had already come through with a clutch hit to score Myriah Diaz to tie the game.
Sierra Freeman recorded three hits and Campi added another hit and an RBI.
Carpinteria takes the weekend off but has two league games ahead next week, Grace Brethren at on Tuesday and at Bishop Diego on Thursday.
