Beaufort vs. Bluffton rivalry developing on diamond

LowcoSports.com

The Diamond Youth Softball District 8 tournaments have all followed a similar script, and the theme is a budding rivalry between Beaufort and Bluffton for Lowcountry bragging rights.

Bluffton has been on the better end of things thus far, winning the 8-and-under and 10-and-under district titles and claiming the first game of a best-of-three series for the 12-and-under championship.

In the 8u coach pitch tournament last week at Burton Wells Complex, Beaufort opened with an 11-9 win over Colleton County before running into a Bluffton buzzsaw for two lopsided defeats. The outcomes were the same in the 10u tournament at Oscar Frazier Park in Bluffton, where the host team held off Beaufort for an 8-7 win Saturday and clinched the title with a 9-2 victory Sunday.

The 12u district championship series was slated to continue Tuesday with Game 3 on Wednesday if necessary.
