Kennedy Catholic saw its girls soccer season end with a 3-1 loss at Hanford on Tuesday.
The Lancers were playing among the state's final 16 teams, however.
They came into the state tournament as the No. 8 seed out of the West Central District after taking a 4-0 loss to Sumner in the game for the No. 6 seed Saturday.

The low seeding resulted in the long trip to Eastern Washington to play a 5 p.m. match against Hanford, a No. 1 seed going in.

Kennedy Catholic earned the state berth with a 2-1 victory over Olympia last Thursday.
The Lancers played their first season as a Class 4A team in the North Puget Sound League after moving up from Class 3A and the mixed Class 2A/3A Seamount League, which is now defunct.
