Having split a pair of SPSL 3A soccer games, Enumclaw High found itself in a third-place tie with Decatur.

Thursday’s 2-1 loss to league-leading Auburn Mountainview, following a 2-0 shutout over Decatur Oct. 18, gave EHS a 5-3 record in SPSL 3A play. The Hornets played earlier this week, hosting second-place Bonney Lake on Tuesday, and wrap up the regular season Thursday by  traveling to challenge the winless, last-place Lakes.

The home loss to Auburn Mountainview saw the Hornets take the early lead thanks to a goal by Jessica Snoen. That help up until midway through the second half, when the Lions struck twice in a five-minute span to register the tying and game-winning goals.

The important road victory over Decatur was keyed by a goal early in the second half by Katie Christensen and an insurance tally late in the game by Hannah Dahlquist.
