Keirra Thompson’s career-best 26 points lifted the Camas girls basketball team to a 71-56 win over Union on Friday, helping the No. 1-ranked Papermakers earn the 4A GSHL title outright and top seed to next week’s 4A bi-district tournament.

The second and third seeds are still up for grabs between Union and Skyview ahead of next Tuesday’s regular-season between the two teams. Both teams are tied for second in league.

Brooklynn Haywood netted a game-best 33 points, including 13 in the first quarter when Union raced out to a 24-16 advantage.

SKYVIEW 76, BATTLE GROUND 33 — Jordan Labrador-Hallett hits seven 3-pointers and finishes with 27 points for Skyview.

The win moved Skyview (3-2) into second place in the 4A Greater St. Helens League. The Storm will face Union on Tuesday with the chance to secure the No. 2 seed to the bi-district tournament.

TaRyan Hamstreet had 10 rebounds to lead the Storm, and Charlotte Baker had eight.

Yvette Rosales scored nine points to lead the Tigers.

EVERGREEN 51, KELSO 50 — Kimora Ross came up with a big steal late as Evergreen had to withstand two late attempts by Kelso to conver a game-winning basket in the final seconds.

The win gave Evergreen (15-5, 7-1) the outright league title in the 3A Greater St. Helens League. Kelso was eliminated from postseason contention with the loss.

R.A. LONG 45, FORT VANCOUVER 37 — Alauna Brown scored 10 of her 18 points in the second half as R.A. Long fended off Fort.

Mark Morris remains tied for second in the 2A Greater St. Helens League.

Chloe Johnson scored 19 points and Isabella Albaugh added 18 for Washougal, which sits in fifth place. The Panthers need a loss by Ridgefield on Monday to move into a tie for fourth.
