MANILA, Philippines — Team Manila showed last year’s domination was no fluke as it topped the softball girls’ 18-under Pony World Series at the Municipal Park grounds in McAllen, Texas over the weekend.
The Filipinas blanked the Texas Futures belles, 3-0, in the championship round to crown themselves champions of the prestigious annual tournament for the second straight year.
The Filipinas’ other victories came at the expense of La Mochis-Ahome twice, 7-2 and 11-3, Force Fastpitch, 6-1, Nogales-Nogalense, 6-2, and Glory Atkins Bejar, 10-9, in the pool stage, and RGV Pride, 4-2, in the playoff round leading up to the finale.
Team Manila, headed by Che Borromeo, replicated its back-to-back feat in 2017 and 2018 in the runup to the 2019 Manila SEA Games.
