The White River High baseball team finds itself just one victory shy of a return trip to the Class 2A state championships.
Inclement weather has disrupted postseason plans, tightening the subdistrict schedule and advancing the Hornets to West Central District play as a No. 2 seed.
That means a victory today, Wednesday, will send White River to state. The Hornets play at 4 p.m. at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds, taking on a foe that was determined during a Tuesday contest.
It would take two district losses to bring White River’s season to an end.
The Hornets enter today’s game with a 17-3 overall mark. They placed second in the South Puget Sound League 2A with a 12-2 record.
