The Enumclaw High boys chalked up a 22-point victory Wednesday night in the opening round of the District 3/4 basketball tournament.

Playing at Clover Park High School in Lakewood, the Hornets routed Fort Vancouver 62-40 in the loser-out contest.

With the win, Enumclaw advances to play Lincoln High of Tacoma. The two will tip off at 6:15 p.m. Friday at Franklin Pierce High School. A Friday victory would guarantee EHS a berth in the upcoming regional tourney.
