Hopes of repeating as AAA Senior Legion state championships were erased Thursday morning for Lakeside.
The group of current and former Issaquah, Skyline and Newport baseball players dropped their second consecutive tournament game in Selah, falling 10-6 to Centralia.
After falling behind 3-0 in the top of the fourth inning, Lakeside rallied in the bottom half of the inning for five runs and a 5-3 advantage.
Centralia countered the very next inning with a five-run explosion of its own, taking an 8-5 lead. They tacked on two more runs in the seventh inning and never looked back.
Mike Paulson continued to swing the bat well for Lakeside, going 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored. Mikey Smith also went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI.
Lakeside dropped its tournament opener Wednesday, falling 8-6 to the Spokane Bandits.
The AAA Senior Legion state tournament continues through Sunday at the Carlon Park in Selah.
