Varied results for local teams
Mon, 11/09/2009
Three Highline-Des Moines area teams met with three different results in West Central District 3A action Wednesday, Nov. 4 -- although all were by the same margin of 1-0.
Mount Rainier fared the best, grabbing a 1-0 victory over Auburn-Mountainview and staying alive to play a 1 p.m. Saturday game against Camas at South Sound Stadium in Olympia.
That game was of the do-or-die variety.
Brooke Luchau earned the shutout on goal for the Rams, and Clarissa Strayer scored on a Chelsea Still assist with 24 minutes to go on the clock.
Kennedy Catholic took a 1-0 loss to Bonney Lake at Sunset Chevrolet Stadium in Sumner, meanwhile, but also lived to play another day.
The Lancers were set to take on Yelm in another game at Sunset Chevrolet Stadium. That action was scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday with the winner going to state and the loser out.
Highline also received a first round loss Wednesday, but it was in a loser-out game and the Pirates are already done. The Pirates came up short against Peninsula, 1-0.
