Washougal fans held their breath as the basketball took two bounces off the rim and continued to hover above the net.

Eleven Camas High School gymnasts defeated 30 opponents from Union Saturday, at Northpointe in Vancouver.
Washougal High School seniors Haley Briggs, Crystal Chase and Jolynn Wenick got the Centralia Tigers off their backs.
The Camas and Washougal high school wrestlers continued to climb ladders during the holidays.
The streak ended at eight wins to start the season for Washougal, but the boys are rebuilding for the long haul.
Camas High School senior wrestlers Talon Edmiston and Bryant Elliott advanced to the championship round of their respective 32-man Best of the West brackets Dec. 20, in Pasco. Both Papermakers settled for silver medals to lead the team to seventh place in the 30-school scramble.
A basketball rolls around at the Anderson house, and the boys continue to bounce it.
A shorthanded Camas High School girls basketball squad still won all three of its games at the Evergreen Holiday Hoops festival.
A Plainsman had a night to remember, but seven Papermakers set a new school record for points in a game. The Camas boys basketball players and coaches hadn't forgotten about the game-winning buzzer beating over the shoulder basket Robert Franks made against them in the first round of the district tournament. The shot gained national attention. A video of it is available on Youtube.
The synergy between the athletes and coaches in the Evergreen Storm Track Club is creating All-Americans. "We're kind of like a family," said Rachel Blair, a 13-year-old from Camas. "We spend so much time running together."
