EVERETT — After leading 4-1 through three innings Mountlake Terrace was outscored 10-1 the rest of the way and was ousted 11-5 by Central Kitsap in the loser-out first-round Class 4A state tournament game at Everett Memorial Stadium.
Terrace, the District 1 champion, had won eight consecutive games and was trying to win a state-tourney game for the first time in program history. But the Hawks (17-7) helped Central Kitsap (20-6) by committing five errors and several baserunning blunders.
“Too many mistakes,” Terrace coach Andrew Watters said. “I tip my hat to Central Kitsap. They put the ball in play and they put pressure on us. They’re a very good club.”
