TAYLORSVILLE -- With her team down 5-3 in the last inning of Tuesday's 4-A championship-bracket game, Jordynn Barrera stepped to the plate for Roy High knowing she had to put the ball in play and try to move the base runner the Royals had on.

Turns out it was easier for her to just hit a two-run dinger, tying the game and sending it to extra innings where the Royals scored the final run in the bottom of the eighth to advance with a 6-5 win over Region 6 champion Bountiful at the Valley Softball Complex.
