So far, they have beaten non-conference foes Bishop Blanchet 7-5, Roosevelt 4-0, and Kamiak 11-2.

Their sole loss was to 4A Glacier Peak, 6-5, in an exciting back and forth duel. Shorewood pitchers have been turning in solid performances, the defense has been playing well, and the bats have been hot throughout the order.
