Fastpitch takes 3rd in state!

After winning a first round game 2-0 on May 25th over Nooksack Valley in the 2007 1A state tournament in Moses Lake, the Lakeside Lady Eagles fastpitch squad was sent to the consolation bracket in the second round game by a 6-0 loss to eventual state champion Castle Rock.

In the first game of consolation play, the Lady Eagles faced NEA district nemesis Kettle Falls, and defeated them by a score of 4-1, moving on to the consolation quarterfinals to face Lynden Christian. Lakeside blew LC out of the tournament by a score of 12-2.

In what would be the third game of the day, Lakeside then faced bi-district Caribou League foe Chelan, and went on to win that game by a score of 4-2, assuring the Nine Mile Falls team at least a fourth place finish in the state tournament.

Playing their fourth game of the day, the Lady Eagles then took on a tough Chimacum squad and defeated them by a score of 5-4, to nail down 3rd place behind Montesano at 2nd and Castle Rock the 2007 1A state fastpitch champion.
