Camas volleyball standout stays on track (and field)

Camas senior Ella Thompson has signed to play volleyball at the University of Miami in Florida. But first, she has some unfinished business in track and field.

Ella Thompson of Camas cleared 5 feet even at the 4A girls high jump at the 4A and 3A District 4 track and field meets last week at McKenzie Stadium. She also won the 4A girls javelin with a throw of 113-4. Thompson has a season-best mark of 130-9, which is third in the state in Class 4A heading into the bi-district meet.
