The varsity baseball squads of the four Edmonds School District high schools have a chance to make history on Saturday, May 14, but it will be no easy task.

By the end of the day, the Lynnwood Royals, Edmonds-Woodway Warriors, Meadowdale Mavericks and Mountlake Terrace Hawks could all have earned their way into the 2022 WIAA 3A state baseball tournament that begins next week. If that happens, it would be the first time ever the four schools made it into the state tourney at the same time.

The four teams are taking part in the final day of the District 1 baseball tournament consisting of three games on Saturday at Funko Field in Everett. The Mavericks will face the Stanwood Spartans at 1 p.m., the Hawks take on the Mount Vernon Bulldogs at 4 p.m. and the Warriors and Royals close out the district tourney facing each other in the championship game at 7 p.m.

E-W and Lynnwood have already punched their tickets to the state tournament; Meadowdale and Mountlake Terrace will have to prevail in their games to get to state. Both the Mavericks and the Hawks face higher-seeded opponents in their winner-to-state, loser-out matchups.

The District 1 tournament began on May 6 with 12 teams vying for the district championship. The top four finishers in the tourney will move on to the state tournament. To view the District 1 3A Baseball Tournament bracket, click www.wescoathletics.com/m2/tourn.php?act=vt&tid=3584.
