FIFE — It’s day two of the high school district soccer playoffs. The #5 seed Sequim Wolves (12-3), who are already qualified for the state tournament, have a semifinal match up with the #1 seed 19-0 Fife Trojans. How good are the Trojans? Sequim’s earlier district playoff opponent Enumclaw had outscored their opponents 56-6. The Fife Trojans outscored their opponents 99-1. It should be noted that the Trojans toughest games were against Enumclaw. Fife won those two games 2-1 and 2-0. As one Sequim parent said,” Fife is so good it’s like they have three Taryn Johnsons on that team”. The winner will play for the district championship Saturday at 2 pm, the loser will play for 3rd and 4th at Noon. Both games are at Sammamish High School. The other semifinal teams are #2 seed North Kitsap and #3 seed Sammamish.
The Port Angeles Roughriders (9-6) will travel to Highline in Burien to take on the 10-6-1 Pirates in a loser out game. The winner will play the winner of the #4 seed Enumclaw – #13 seed Franklin Pierce winner on Saturday for a loser-out and winner-to-state game.
