The Inchelium softball team won the Grand Coulee Summer Softball League's Kenny Hearne Summer Classic Tournament on Saturday.
Inchelium had to beat the Electric City Bar & Grill team twice on Saturday in the championship after losing to them previously in the winner's bracket.
Inchelium came back from behind to win the first game of the championship 13-12. They won the second game 12-9.
"The [Electric City Bar & Grill] is a very good team and very tough to beat," said Inchelium's Galen Desautel. "We played very hard all day long and ended up coming out on top."
Electric City Bar & Grill took second place, and third went to the Wannabes.
"Kevin [Portch] does a great job with this league and the tournament," Desautel said about Portch, who organizes the league each year. "Can't leave out how good the fields were. They were in very good shape all year. Hope Kevin keeps doing this for the community; it is a very good thing."
