As the Camas High School girls basketball team fights to even the score with Skyview tonight, Sierra Brown points to her beating heart and says, “It all needs to start in here.”
Pulses were racing as Brown and her teammates delivered pink roses to the breast cancer survivors standing in the crowd on Hoops for Pink night. The Papermakers then stepped on the court and scored baskets for those brave warriors.
“See this white line. Once we step across it, give 100 percent,” Brown said to seniors McKenna Jackson, Paige Jackson, Kathryn Johnson, Kimi Knight, Lauren Neff and Kyla Sumpter. “This is the last year we get to be together, so why not give it our all.”
The Camas girls defeated Battle Ground 55-26 Friday, at CHS. The Papermakers held the Tigers to 13 points in each half. It started with a 7-0 run by Camas to start the game. Rachel Rice nailed two 3-pointers to make it 12-3. She finished with 12 points in the game.
Nikki Corbett collected 13 points, four rebounds and three blocked shots. Brenna Khaw weathered flu-like symptoms and dished out seven assists, scored four points and grabbed four rebounds.
