several weeks both here at \u201cThe SportsTalk Shop\u201d and on our \u201cSportsTalk\u201d television program on ATVN.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last week we focused on tennis, lacrosse, and track and field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, we put the spotlight on last week\u2019s softball championships, plus more video highlights from recent games broadcast on our network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was a busy week of playoff action\u2013both for the players on the field and for the administrators and field workers, trying to get the fields ready to play around A LOT of rain that occurred before and during a number of the games played on the diamond over the last several days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But as far as the championships, we definitely had some impressive performances\u2013with a number of familiar faces and teams bringing home the hardware!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the District 6A title, Northampton and Whitehall battled for several scoreless innings before the Konkrete Kids ran off 10 unanswered runs and ended up mercy-ruling the Zephyrettes to capture their second straight district championship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bethlehem Catholic (4A), Williams Valley (2A) and Tri-Valley (A) also repeated as district champs for the second straight year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Southern Lehigh won the 5A championship for the first time in three seasons, giving long-time head coach Brian Neffe yet another trophy in his illustrious coaching career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Palisades won the 3A championship\u2013their first since 2010.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was on hand to see the 6A championship and can share some pictures of Northampton\u2019s win over Whitehall.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top:
