The Pewaukee Pirates out shot Shorewood in a penalty shootout round, following two scoreless overtime periods.
The Greyhounds' state tournament dreams were dashed by Pewaukee Saturday, after the two played to a draw and entered a penalty shootout round.

Shorewood slipped two more goals past Whitewater in the second half, but and allowed the Whippets' lone …
