The Camas Boys Varsity baseball team won their seventh straight game Wednesday in walk-off fashion defeating Union 8-7 in 9 innings. 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.

Highlights for the Papermakers include:

  • Liam Fitzpatrick- 6 innings pitched, 4 strikeouts; 3 for 3 with an RBI
  • Jared Bentley- 3-5, 2 runs, 2 stolen bases and an RBI
  • Sam Christopher- 3 innings pitched, 2 strikeouts and the win; 1-5 with an RBI and run scored

Papermakers JV baseball beat Union HS yet again. After giving up a four run lead the resilient Makers JV took the lead in the bottom of the sixth inning to capture a 8-7 victory!  Camas was lead on the mound by Nate Kordenat who pitched a complete game to earn the victory. Wes Colvin delivered a clutch 2 out bases clearing double and Ryan Behnke added two hits. The victory moved CHS JV to 7-2 on the season and extends their winning streak to 5 in a row.

Both Camas teams won the 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.

PASCO, WA — It was expected, but it wasn’t a given, as the Camas Girls XC team won their second consecutive State title on Saturday, which was their fourth in five years.

Freshman Rachel Blair finished fourth, covering the 5,000 meter course at Sun Willows Golf Course in 18 minutes, 10 seconds. Sophomore Emma Jenkins was seventh in 18:17, and sophomore Emily Wilson was was in thirteenth place, clocking in at 18:30.

Maddie Woodson and Kaylee Merritt rounded out the five scoring Camas runners, who posted a team score of 81 points.

Many of the girls also compete in Track & Field, as well as run for club teams, so they are well-conditioned all year long. Blair also said their team is coached well, and that although it’s an individual sport, the girls on the team work well together, and encourage each other to excel, and to do their absolute best.

The team begins practice before school even begins in September, and they always set lofty goals for themselves.

More details to come.

Camas — The Papermaker’s football offense spoke loud and clear Friday night in the first round of 4A playoffs at Doc Harris Stadium. And the defense screamed loudly too, in a 49-6 crushing of the Bethel Braves.

It was over by halftime. The fans loved it.

 

Wide Receiver Jordan Del Moral ran for four first-half touchdowns, and Camas scored touchdowns on their first five possessions. It was a fantastic game for QB, Liam Fitzgerald, who passed the ball to a variety of receivers throughout the night.

“We had a great night,” said Fitzgerald. “I hope we do well again next week. We’ve been putting in the time, and we have an amazing team here.”

Del Moral scored the first four Camas touchdowns on runs from inside the 10. He finished with 66 rushing yards and another 70 on three receptions.

Jordan Del Moral
WR Jordan Del Moral ran for four first-half touchdowns.

In the first half, Fitzgerald completed 16 of 23 throws for 237 yards. Among them was a 43-yard catch and run by Drake Owen for the fifth Camas touchdown.

Coach Jon Eagle, like his players, enjoyed the sixth first-half touchdown, which was a 51-yard interception return by Blake Roy.

“I appreciate how hard the boys played tonight,” said Eagle. “We work them very hard, and it shows. It’s also a reflection of all the coaches, and the support of all these great fans here at Doc Harris Stadium.”

In total, there were three interceptions, including another by Jared Bentley, who picked off a pass in the end zone. Jack Colletto intercepted the first pass of the second half.
Senior Sean Ramage is announced.

The Braves only had a net 19 yards rushing, with 142 passing yards, with three completions of more than 30 yards.

The Papermakers return this Friday at Doc Harris Stadium.
