Lindbergh:
The Eagles have the league’s leading scorer in Elise Aylward (23 goals) and prepared themselves for the playoffs with a tough non-league slate (Enumclaw, Olympic, Franklin Pierce, Port Angeles and Klahowya). Lindbergh also picked up a big, 1-0 win against Kennedy Oct. 11.
Last state appearance: 2010
Renton:
The Indians are much improved over last year. They struggle against the top-tier league teams, but are clearly better than the bottom-tier league teams. Renton’s biggest change this season is the ability to score. They have topped seven goals in six games this season.
Last state appearance: none

Hazen:
The Highlanders have also set themselves up for playoff intensity with a tough non-league schedule. Cameron Devereux has stepped in for all-state goalkeeper Priscilla Yu very well, totaling five shutouts this season – tied for the league lead. Hazen also has good balance on offense, with six players that have four goals or more.

The Patriots have four league games left, including a rematch against Mercer Island Oct. 18 at home at 7:30 p.m. The Islanders beat Liberty 1-0 Sept. 24.

Liberty:
The Patriots finally lost a league game, but they still look very good. Liberty knows what it takes to play at the highest level after making the state title game last year, and they can hang with the heavyweights as shown by a 2-1 loss to 12-0-2 Skyline in September.
