Photo by Briston Beaumont The Lincoln High School varsity boys soccer team won the Metro League Championship, 3-1, over their rival Lakeside last week. The last regular game of the season served as a sort of wake-up call when they tied with Lakeside. In a Friday night game at Interbay, an estimated 1,000 Lincoln students and fans packed the stadium. Nolan Todd, a junior from Queen Anne, said that it felt amazing to see so many faces from the community. ‘It fills us with a huge sense of joy and appreciation for everyone who comes out to support,” he said. The game went scoreless through two overtime periods and came down to penalty kicks. ‘It was an extremely close game that ended up going to penalties,’ senior Isaac Esquinasi said. ‘Every single moment was absolutely loaded with pressure, tension, emotion and significance,” said goalkeeper coach Greg Daly said. ‘It was positively the largest collective explosion of joy I’ve felt since the first Seahawks NFC Championship, and it’s why people should care about sports in their community and get involved.’ Nick Winemiller, a senior and co-captain, said he was extremely proud of the team and looking forward to playing in the state championship next weekend. ‘It’s always been a positive vibe throughout the team, which makes the program team so unique.’

Low Income Housing Institute is hosting a meeting to educate people about Salmon Bay Village, a new hybrid-housing project planned for the Interbay neighborhood. Residents are invited to attend the meeting from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

McGraw St. Josh Castle, community engagement director with the Low Income Housing Institute, spoke to the Magnolia Community Council about LiHi’s newest project in Seattle at the May 16 meeting. The Salmon Bay Village, 3435 15th Ave. West, will be just south of the
Ballard Bridge near the site of the old car wash. Unlike other LIHI developments, this will not solely feature tiny houses. Instead, Castle said this will provide spaces for about 30 RVs and 10 tiny houses and accommodate approximately 40 people. “It’s going to serve a lot of people living in their RVs living right there in Interbay,” he said. “So, we want to
make a visible impact right there in the neighborhood.” The residents who will park their RVs there, however, will have to commit to transferring from living in an RV to permanent housing or a transitional tiny house within a certain time frame — 90 days — Castle said, but
