Washougal’s equestrian team has won its first state title in 14 years.

“I was extremely excited,” said Brittni DeVault, the team’s timed-events coach. “I had a feeling we could win because we have three extremely strong seniors that cleaned up at districts, and we also have a couple of really solid freshmen that kind of blew us away this year — their contribution was huge. I don’t think there were many other schools that could’ve touched us.”
