Soundview bounced back to beat Kirkland American, 9-0, in a loser's bracket game this past Wednesday and an 11-0 victory over Lake Stevens on Thursday.

That advanced the team to Friday's loser's bracket final against Richland, which it won, 5-2, to earn a Saturday morning rematch with Gig Harbor in the provisional championship.
