Papermakers defeat top-ranked Lions

With two minutes left in a Dec. 11 game against the Camas Papermakers, the West Linn Lions girls basketball team — Oregon’s top-ranked 6A team — took a five-point lead and appeared to be in control of the young Papermaker squad.

Aaronette Vonleh, the Lions’ talented 6′ 4″ center and sister of former Portland Trail Blazer Noah Vonleh, was dominating play under the basket. But Camas had worked out a defensive strategy that led to some important turnovers.
