It’s been another spectacular year for girls basketball programs in Camas and Washougal. Both high school teams have earned their way to the state tournaments, and both have the big-time experience to know what to expect.
For the Washougal Panthers, this is their third consecutive trip to the state tournament in the Yakima SunDome.
Last year the Papermakers were the first Camas basketball team — boys or girls — to ever make it to the state tournament in Tacoma.
While the Washougal girls are comfortable in the SunDome, they have been teasing Brittney Knotts, their first year coach, that “you better follow us or you might get lost in there because it’s a really big place!”
Knotts, the assistant coach at Mountain View last year, said the community of Washougal has been amazing.
