"We are feeding off of that energy, game after game," said Corona del Mar coach Aly Vislocky.
It marked the second time this year that Corona del Mar has defeated Beckman. The teams, who shared the Pacific Coast League title, split during the regular season.
"We had beaten Beckman earlier in the year, which was a huge milestone for us," Vislocky said. "Then we lost to them, and it kind of bummed us out, but I think it was also the fire to help us win again."
Corona del Mar (16-3) had a balanced scoring attack, led by Ally Brahs and Torrey Attyah, who had three goals each.
Kacie Kline and Gabby Smith added two goals each for the Sea Kings.
CdM goalkeeper Sarah Hostetler faced 20 shots and had 12 saves.
Beckman (15-4) was led by Hanna Leonard, who scored three goals. Kylie Filipek added two goals.
