Viewpoint held on to its lead and beat Faith Baptist, 2-1, in the Southern Section-Toyota Division VII championship game Saturday afternoon at Barber Park in Irvine.

Michelle Lesser, who pitched a one-hitter, retired the last nine batters in a row. She also scored the game-winning run after getting on-base with a one-out triple in the bottom of the sixth.

The title is the school’s first section softball championship. It’s also their second section title of the day -- the baseball team won its Division VII final as wel l-- and their fourth of the school year.
