WRHS SOCCER: Saints blow by Hornets in state race

White River High’s postseason soccer experience lasted two games, a Nov. 2 victory over Kingston followed by a Saturday afternoon loss to Interlake. The split allowed the Hornets to wrap up the season with an overall record of 9-7-1. Saturday’s district tournament loss to Interlake, played at Highline Stadium in Burien, was a loser-out affair. The winner was one of 16 teams advancing to the state Class 2A tournament. The Saints scored one goal early in the first half and another early in the second to end White River’s season. The Hornets had survived a West Central District contest against Kingston at Sunset Chev in Sumner. The game’s only goal came in the sixth minute and was delivered by Ashley Powell, thanks to an assist by Cassidy France. Kylie Englebert earned the shutout in goal.
