CAMAS — Camas High cross country athlete Micah Snell is happiest when racing — first in marathons starting at age 2, and now on the Papermakers’ cross country team.

Other athletes may get faster times, but Micah sets the gold-bar standard for a runner’s spirit. He pushes teammates and competitors to be their best as they push him in a specialized tri-wheel racing chair.
