Trailing by a run in the bottom of the 9th, Zach Pfeiffer got the rally started with a two-out base hit. In his first varsity appearance, Cole Hurtarte entered the game to run at first and quickly stole second to get in scoring position. Taylor Adams, in just his second ever varsity at-bat delivered an RBI single scoring Hurtarte and tying the game at 7-7. Three pitches later Adams took off for third on a pitch in the dirt and scored the game-winning run when the throw from the catcher went into left field. The win helped the Papermakers take the regular season series with the Titans, 2 games to 1.

Liam Fitzpatrick- 6 innings pitched, 4 strikeouts; 3 for 3 with an RBI

Track and Field: Camas Wins Tiger Invitational

Battle Ground, WA — Camas didn’t have to fight the elements on Saturday, but they did battle against a bunch of other high schools at the annual Tiger Invitational on Saturday, at Battle Ground High School — and they came out ahead.

The Papermakers were strong in the distance events Saturday, which put them over the top, for both boys and girls teams.

Camas runners won the boys distance races. Dustin Zimmerly was first in the 800, Yacine Guermali won the 1,600, and Daniel Maton placed first in the 3,200. Camas also won the 1,600 relay and the distance medley relay (400, 800, 1,200 and 1,600 meters).

On the girls team, Papermaker Rachel Blair won the 3,200 and Madison Peffers placed first the high jump. Overall, the Papermakers did well enough in a number of events to win with 115 points, just 13 ahead of second-place Skyview. It was a close competition.

Union senior Bailey King won the discus (75 feet, 4 inches), which was remarkable as it was the best result in the state by nearly nine feet. King also won the shot put.

Union’s Jai’lyn Meriweather won the 400 meters (defending her state title) with 58.02 seconds. Her twin sister, Dai’lyn Meriwether, won the 200 in 26.52 seconds. She is also a state champion.

And, Woodland junior Julia Stepper won the long jump, placed second in the 100 meters and was third in the 200.

Camas Freshmen Baseball Beats Columbia River

Vancouver, WA — The Camas Freshman baseball team got their new season off to a great start on Friday night, beating Columbia River, 8-1.

The 18-member team, which is coached by Zak Webb, got an early lead, thanks to some walks and hits by the starting lineup: Damon Gilmore, Grant Heiser, Shane Jamison, Brogan Layne, Luke Brewer, Caden Wengler, Jacob Trupp, Camden Ford, and Joey Schnell.

Brewer pitched the majority of the game for the Papermakers, and was relieved in the sixth inning by Jake Taylor. In the third inning, Carson Farra, Christian Geigenmiller, and Taylor entered the game.

“It was a great way to start off the season,” said Thea Jamison, of the parents. “Many of these kids have been playing ball competitively since they were very young, at Camas Little League.”

Geigenmiller said that’s one reason the team works well together, as they’ve been playing the game since T-ball or Pee-Wee division at the local little league.

“We just know how to work well with each other,” he said.

The team plays game two of the season this coming Tuesday at 4 at Battle Ground.
