The Shorecrest boys’ soccer team defeated Shorewood, 3-1, Monday to vault the Scots over the Thunderbirds into second place in the Western Conference 3A South with Shorewood dropping to third.
That’s important because the top two teams in each Wesco division get to open the Northwest District 3A tournament Saturday with their first-round games at home.
Before the tournament starts, each team has one more conference game. Shorecrest takes a 9-3 Wesco 3A record (12-3 overall) into a Wednesday 7:30 p.m. match with Mountlake Terrace (3-8-1, 4-9-1) at Lynnwood High School, and Shorewood takes an 8-2-2, 9-3-3 record into a home game with Meadowdale (8-4. 9-5-1) at Shoreline Stadium at 7:30, while division leader Glacier Peak takes a 9-1-2 11-2-2 record into a home game with Everett (1-11, 1-13-1)
