SEASON OUTLOOK
Union, led by Kirkov and Sork, is the favorite in the 4A Greater St. Helens League with Battle Ground looking to challenge. Camas, led by Boyd and Kaler, top the 3A GSHL. But Columbia River has good depth to challenge. Washougal has talent at the top and needs to develop at the bottom of its lineup to battle Mark Morris in the 2A GSHL. La Center again looks to be the favorite in the 1A Trico League.
The actual training, the running every morning this past summer, was a physical challenge.
The will to get up every morning this summer was not difficult for Mark Tedder to summon.
“I just knew my time would go down every time I woke up,” Tedder said.
