The Tumwater girls soccer team opened their district tournament run with a bang on Saturday, defeating Hockinson 4-1 at home to advance to a winner-to-state semifinal. It’s a much more positive start to district play than last season, when Tumwater was upset at home by the same Hockinson team. Last fall, the T-Birds bounced back in their first consolation game, but lost their next game to fall short of the state tournament.
