Federal Way fell five points shy of Lincoln of Tacoma in its state Class 3A final 12 opener Wednesday, ending the Eagles' season.

The Eagles succumbed to the Abes by a 53-48 score in the afternoon boys basketball action at the Tacoma Dome.

But Lincoln lost its state regional game to No. 3 Garfield as the Eagles knocked off No. 11 Auburn Mountainview, 49-41, in the Lions' home gymnasium.

Auburn Mountainview and Federal Way split two games during the regular season, with the Lions taking the North Puget Sound League Class 3A division title ahead of the Eagles.

This time the Eagles emerged as a 49-41 winner over the North Puget Sound League's 3A regular season champions.

Federal Way entered state as the No. 14 seed and the Lions as the No. 11, but it will be the Eagles advancing to the final 12 tournament at the Tacoma Dome as Auburn Mountainview stays home.

Federal Way plays another loser-out game at 3:45 p.m. Wednesday at the dome, with the winner going on to Thursday's state quarterfinals.

The Eagles will be pitted against the loser of a late Saturday game between No. 3-seeded Garfield of Seattle and Lincoln of Tacoma.
