LW baseball to sponsor Hopelink food drive on senior night this Friday

The Lake Washington High baseball program will begin a new tradition this year on senior night by sponsoring a food drive for Hopelink to help support the community.

The last two 3A state champions — Lake Washington and Mercer Island — will face off in the varsity game at 7:15 p.m. this Friday at Lee Johnson Field.

The JV game will take place at 3:45 p.m., senior parents will arrive at 6:15 p.m. and on-field senior night festivities will take place at 6:45 p.m.

Program members will be collecting donations of non-perishable foods, no cash please, during both the junior varsity and varsity games. People should bring items in a grocery bag.
