Federal Way National scored early and often to hand Auburn its first loss of the District 10 Little League All-Star Tournament for 10-11 year olds Thursday at Federal Way, 11-0.

The championship game of the double-elimination playoffs ended after 4½ innings because of the 10-run rule.

Auburn gets another shot Friday at the district title and a state berth. The same teams play for it all at 6 p.m. at the Federal Way National Complex, 450 SW Campus Drive.
