Back on top: Camas football team takes 4A league title for 3rd time in 4 years

Taylor Ioane combined for four touchdowns as Camas bowled over Battle Ground, 42-0, to clinch their third 4A Greater St. Helen’s League title in four years on a wet night at Doc Harris Stadium on Friday, Oct. 28.

Ioane floated a 31-yard teardrop pass to the pylon to Ethan Ouchi in the first quarter to open the scoring, and added another passing score and two rushing touchdowns to lead the Papermakers to the victory. Ioane finished with a team-high 63 yards rushing and was 15-for-26 passing for 208 yards.

Battle Ground quarterback Jacob Champire finished with a game-high 90 yards rushing and had 106 yards through the air. The Tigers struggled to move the ball for most of the night, advancing into the red zone just once, missing a field goal try that was partially blocked.
