Wildcats softball on to state in Yakima

Colton outlasted Touchet 3-1 to make it to a state seeding game in Medical Lake last Saturday but they never played it.

After a lightning and rain delay for the previous game, WIAA officials called off the pending afternoon contest and arranged a coin flip to decide the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds for the eight-team state bracket.

Wildcats’ coach Brad Nilson lost the coin toss.

Colton, in turn, enters the state tournament in Yakima with a No. 2 seed, to play Rainier Christian at 1 p.m. Friday.

Also making state are Southeast 1B league foes Pomeroy and Liberty Christian.
