A controversy arose when the Snohomish, Washington team was accused of "throwing" a game so as not to have to face the Central Team from Slater/Polk City, IA. As a result, the favored Iowa team was forced to use their ace pitcher, Mikayla Houge (who later pitched four years at University of Virginia), in a tie-breaker game, where Iowa prevailed. Unfortunately, Mikayla was then unable to pitch in the semi-finals. Iowa lost that semi-finals game, effectively ending their chance at advancing to the Finals and winning the World Series.Little League Softball Team Throws Game, Sparks World Series Controversy https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2550293-little-league-softball-team-throws-game-sparks-world-series-controversy Wagner Laura Accusations of Game-Throwing Rile Little League Softball World Series NPR 18 August 2015 https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/08/18/432721453/accusations-of-game-throwing-rile-little-league-softball-world-series In a bit of irony, the Southeast team that advanced due to the thrown game ended up winning the championship.
