Class 3A state softball tournament -- Twitter updates

I'll be back at the Regional Athletic Complex in Lacey all day for the Class 3A state softball tournament, and you'll find your Twitter updates here.

Juanita plays Kamiakin of Kennewick in one semifinal, and Everett faces University of Spokane in the other, both at 9 a.m. The winners meet for the championship at 2:30 p.m. There also are some consolation games with Bainbridge, Mount Si, Wilson and Tacoma still alive. Only the top four teams earn trophies.

To read my Friday story on the 3A tournament, click here.

You can find the updated 4A bracket here.

And the WIAA is providing a live webcast for the 4A championship and consolation final games, which you can find here. I'll tweet whatever scores I get.

Unfortunately, the 3A bracket has not been updated yet on the WIAA website. I'll see if I can get someone to take care if that, so hopefully you will eventually be able to find it here.

Interlake is still alive on the consolation side of the 2A tournament, and you can find that bracket here.

Cedar Park Christian also has a chance for a trophy in the 1A tournament, which you can follow here.
