Post 375, which features high school players from Los Altos, Mountain View and Palo Alto, finished second in District 13 with an 11-4 record. The district's top two teams qualify for the Area 2 Tournament, which starts today in Lafayette.
Post 375 fell 14-8 to Monta Vista in the July 14 league finale at Palo Alto High.
Gunn High products Tyler Sullivan and Eric Zweig each had three hits for Post 375.
