Shorewood will open state baseball play with regional games Saturday, May 20, at the Curtis High School baseball complex in University Place south of Tacoma.

The Thunderbirds (17-6) will meet Lakeside (17-5) at 10am with Bainbridge (17-6) meeting Gig Harbor (20-6) at 1pm. The two first-round winners will play later Saturday, with the winner of that game qualifying, along with three other regional winners, for the state 3A semifinals and finals May 26-27 at Safeco Field in Seattle.

Shorewood qualified for state play as the No. 2 Northwest District team after losing to Edmonds-Woodway Saturday, May 13, in the district championship game at Meridian Park fields.
