One road trip paid off in another for the West Seattle baseball team.

The Wildcats won two loser-out games in a row at the Mount Vernon Dream Field on Saturday to earn their way into the state Class 3A semifinals in Pasco.

West Seattle opened regional action in Mount Vernon with a 6-0 win over nearby Ferndale, then defeated Bonney Lake, 7-2, to clinch the semifinal berth.

Next up the Wildcats will face Mount Si in the 10 a.m. semifinal at GESA Stadium in Pasco this coming Friday.

The winner goes on to play for the state 3A championship against the 1 p.m. Kennewick vs. Auburn Mountainview winner Saturday.

The losers of those games will play for third and fourth place, also on Saturday at GESA Stadium.
