The Olympic High School baseball team moved within one win of the Class 3A state tournament with a 5-3 victory Tuesday over Auburn Mountainview High School at Kent Memorial Park.

Senior Riley Crow pitched 5 2/3 innings, allowing five hits and two earned runs, and fellow senior Chris Campbell recorded his fourth save of the season after hitting a go-ahead RBI single in the seventh inning.

Daniel Hall had two RBI and Chris Groat added another for the Trojans (15-6).

“We didn’t look great offensively or defensively, but we got some timely hitting,” coach Nate Andrews said.

Olympic faces Mount Rainier High School in a loser-out, winner-to-state game at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Kent Memorial.
