Early this season my girls asked if we would be going to Tacoma for the state tournament. I had to honestly say that I wasn't sure. They reassured me that we would because Troy was going to make it to state. Wow. They were right. And Nick and Kody made it too! My parents are coming into town on Friday. Guess we will be driving to Tacoma from the airport.

The WIAA 3A Region 3 tournament was held at Everett High
School on Friday and Saturday this week.
Joining the Wesco South 3A schools were the Wesco North
3A and the Mid-Colombia Conference from the Tri-Cities area.
Shorewood qualified 9 wrestlers to wrestle for one of four
qualifying berths to the state tournament next week.
After a grueling two day affair, three T-Birds wrestled
their way into State.
Sophomore Nick Lotz 3rd @ 106lbs,
freshman Kody Carpenter 4th @ 113lbs and
senior Troy Beach 4th @ 195lbs will be representing
Shorewood under the lights of the Tacoma Dome.
Second Alternates for the T-Birds include senior
Tae Thongdee 6th @138lbs and
senior Elias Thorne 6th @152lbs.
Shorewood placed 7th out of 15 teams.
Wrestling starts at 10:00am in the Tacoma Dome
on Friday morning.
