Shorewood heads for State baseball tournament with 3-1 District tournament victory over Marysville-Pilchuck Saturday

The Shorewood baseball team heads for the regional round of the State 3A tournament as the third place team in the Northwest District tournament after a 3-1 victory over Marysville-Pilchuck Saturday at Meridian Park School.

Shorewood’s victory in the third-place game at Meridian Park Saturday preceded Glacier Peak’s 12-2 victory over Mountlake Terrace in the District championship game.

Shorewood takes a 21-3 record into its regional games in Centralia Saturday, May 24, with a game at 10am against Mt. Si, the No. 2 team from the Sea-King District. If Shorewood wins its morning game, the Thunderbirds would play later Saturday against the winner of a 1pm game between Timberline of Lacy and Bainbridge.

The winner of that game advances to the State 3A semifinals and finals May 30-31 in Pasco. The winner of the Centralia regional plays Friday against the winner of a regional in Mount Vernon that involves Northwest District 3A champion Glacier Peak, along with Bonney Lake, West Seattle and Shelton.
