MILL CREEK – The Everett Seagulls played the spoiler Tuesday.
With Jackson a win away from clinching the Western Conference South Division championship, Everett defeated the Timberwolves 12-4 to delay a potential title celebration.
Jackson will have another chance to clinch the title today when it plays Kamiak in its final regular season game. The Timberwolves are assured of no less than a tie for first with Mountlake Terrace, a 10-5 winner Tuesday over Lynnwood. They lead the Hawks by one game going into today’s finales.
