Friday Harbor High School sends along an update about what’s next for its spring sports teams.
Baseball – Our baseball team beat Coupeville 3-2 on Friday in a winner-to-state playoff game at La Conner. The boys will now play in the regional state tournament at Brewster High School this Saturday at 1 p.m. Friday Harbor is the #10 seed and will play #7 seed Kalama from District 4. The winner of this game will advance to play the winner of the #2 seed Brewster and #15 seed Warden, also on Saturday. The boys need to win both games to move on to the final four portion of the state tournament in Ridgefield the next weekend.
Girls Tennis – Weather and the lack of home courts have been a disruptive force in this year’s girls tennis season. While the girls have made the best of a difficult situation, it has been frustrating to not be able to complete some of our matches. While it has not been easy, our top two singles and doubles teams will be traveling to Tumwater on Friday to compete in the bi-district tournament with District 4. The winners of this tournament will advance to state in Yakima on May 27-28.
Boys & Girls Golf – Our boys and girls golf teams competed this past week at their district tournaments. Three boys qualified for the tri-district tournament being played this Thursday at Loomis Trails Golf Course in Bellingham. Jack Mason, Jack Hess, and Ryan Rautenberg will be trying to earn their way to the state tournament the following week. On the girls side, Izzy Graham earned the final spot to the state tournament being played next week at Deer Park golf course in North Spokane.
Boys & Girls Track – Our track teams head to the tri-district tournament on Friday at WF West High School in Chehalis. Competition gets started at 3 p.m. Our athletes will be competing to move on to the state tournament the following week at Eastern Washington University. Only one athlete in each event will automatically advance. Additional entries may be earned if an athlete meets the state qualifying time or distance.
Fastpitch – Our fastpitch team competed well, finishing second in league. Unfortunately for the girls, the Northwest 2B/1B league only carries one allocation to the state playoffs this year. Our girls fell just short.
More state tournament information is available on the WIAA website.
