MANOA - It was as if the Campbell Sabers unleashed four years of frustration in one game.

The Sabers finally beat their nemesis and OIA Western Division rival Mililani in a big game in grand fashion, a 16-4 thrashing that ended after five innings because of the mercy rule before a capacity crowd of 1,200 at Rainbow Wahine Softball Stadium.

Since their first crown in 2010, the Sabers have lost in two title games, once to Mid-Pacific Institute in 2012 (4-1) and last year to Mililani (2-1). The Sabers also lost to eventual champion Punahou in the 2013 semifinals.

Sabers senior center fielder Nashlynn Anguay, an all-tournament selection, appreciates what the title means.

"It's a great feeling," she said. "Three out of my four high-school years, making to the state championship and not being able to get it, this, my senior year, it's a bit of sweet feeling. Especially with these bunch of girls. We worked hard all season and we finally got it."

Anguay shared in the hit-fest, batting 2 for 3 with a double and three RBI. She finished the tournament batting 8 for 15, including a double and home run, with five runs and five RBI.

The Sabers wreaked havoc on Trojans' starting pitcher Aubree Kim, who has frustrated the Sabers since last season. She beat the Sabers, 1-0, in last year's OIA semifinals and 2-1 in the state title game. Kim also beat the Sabers, 4-3, in last week's OIA championship.

"I just tried to prepare myself for everything that happened before," Anguay said. "It was, ‘Don't give into her. Don't let her beat me out of that box, but beat her out of that mound because last year, she basically dominated every single one of us, somehow. But this year, we dominated her."

Last year, Kim had Saber batters talking to themselves after being lured by her rise pitch. This time they had a better approach against the Mililani junior pitcher.

"We knew Aubree likes to throw the rise," Campbell coach Shag Hermosura said. "We knew if she had one strike, she would rise you up or bust you in. We just layed off the high and worked down. Keep our eyes down and stay on top of the ball and see where the ball goes."

The Sabers had a season-high 18 hits with every starter getting at least one hit. Winning pitcher Elisa Favela had the two biggest hits, a grand slam in the first inning to put Campbell ahead, 5-0, and a three-run shot in the second that negated a three-run first by the Trojans.

"We were just pumped," Favela said. "We just wanted to get revenge and show that no matter what, we can still fight through anything even though we lost a lot of times to them."

It was the first title for fourth-year coach Hermosura. The first was won by David Perreira, the baseball team's pitching coach these days.

"It wasn't so much frustration," Hermosura said. "We just wanted to come back to the spot where we left last year and accomplish something we didn't accomplish last year.

"I'm proud of these girls because they won this on their own. They came here with a little bitter taste from last year. They just wanted this so bad."
