    TAFT -- Arizona Pilgrim got a taste of a Central Section championship game last year. She and her Taft High teammates will get another shot on Thursday.

    Second-seeded Taft used Pilgrim's dominating pitching and timely hitting to beat No. 3 Chowchilla 5-0 Tuesday in the Div. IV softball semifinals at Taft.

    The Wildcats (25-6) advance to the finals, a road game at top-seeded Liberty-Madera Ranchos or a home game against defending champion Fowler, the team that beat the Wildcats 1-0 in last year's finals.

    "I'm just glad I could help out my team," said Pilgrim, a sophomore who improved to 20-4. "I just did what I had to do."

    She allowed two infield singles and three baserunners. She struck out 15 and walked none. Chowchilla (21-10)...
