Less than 24 hours after winning the Class 4A football state championship, five members of the Papermakers’ title-winning team were back practicing.
Not in football. It came on the hardwood. On a Sunday.
Third-year coach Ryan Josephson posed the question to the players turning out for basketball if they wanted to have their first practice begin Sunday so they could be eligible to play by the end of the week.
He got a unanimous yes from Jackson Clemmer, Blake Asciutto, Titan Phillips, Kenny Wright and Charlie Bump.
“That speaks to why we’re a winning team,” Josephson said.
Josephson noted a higher energy level now that the varsity team is at full strength. Camas began the season with losses to Prairie and Sumner, and faced Evergreen last week before hosting Washougal with a full roster.
