High School Sports Feature: Snohomish to State

Snohomish High School punched their ticket to the boys 4A state baseball tournament on Tuesday after they beat Kamiak 2-0 in the semifinals of the Northwest District 4A tournament. Pitching the shutout for the Panthers was Braden Allen who is the number 2 starter on the team. Allen allowed only 2 hits while striking out 6. In both games that Snohomish has played in this tournament they have yet to allow a single run.

Max Foxter provided all the offense Allen and the Panthers would need when he hit a double in the sixth inning, then scored on a two-out single.

On Saturday Snohomish will face Marysville-Pilchuk in the district title game where they hope to fair better than the previous two meetings against the Tomahawks this year. Both of the those contests resulted in a loss for Snohomish. The winner of the title game gets to play at Everett Memorial Stadium and the loser gets to travel down to Tacoma.
