Susie Scheper singled home Erin Field with the game-winning run.

``I definitely didn't want to be the team that lost that one,'' said Walsh, who gave up only three hits. ``Selena was pitching so well too. It was definitely a pitchers game so I'm glad we came up on the up side of it.''

Walsh now has 59 strikeouts in her five starts. She's 5-0 with one save and the Highlanders improved to 6-0, including three extra inning games.

Granada Hills next faces Highland of Palmdale in the semifinals of the Hart tournament at 6 p.m. Saturday.
