They were fit to be tied.

Kennedy Catholic and Mount Rainier battled to a 2-2 tie in a North Puget Sound League boys soccer match played at Highline Memorial Stadium on Friday.

It was the first game of a doubleheader played at the stadium, with Highline defeating Tyee by a 3-1 score in the second contest.

Another match was played at nearby Foster, with the Bulldogs prevailing by a 2-1 score over White River in another South Puget Sound League matchup.

In Metro League action to the north, Ballard took a 1-0 loss to O'Dea and West Seattle lost to Roosevelt by a 4-1 margin. Chief Sealth had the night off.
