Bainbridge's baseball squad has roared into the state semifinals after dispatching Pullman and Fife in decisive fashion.
At the heart of the run are senior slugger Will Rohrbacher, who cracked a pair of home runs in the two victories, and pitcher Trey Thompson, whose complete‑game effort against Fife featured 14 strikeouts and a fastball that topped out at 95 mph.
The Pitcher's Masterclass
Coach Thomas Henshaw called Thompson's outing the most efficient of his career, praising the right‑hander's poise and command.
The team's distinctive hair and beard styles have become a visual trademark, a rallying point that players say fuels their camaraderie.
Looking ahead, Bainbridge will meet Orting in the semifinals on May 29 at Joe Martin Stadium in Bellingham, a venue that will also host the championship game scheduled for May 30 at 4 p.m.
While neighboring Klahowya and Crosspoint Christian exited in the opening round, Bainbridge's quest to defend last year's title remains alive.
