1B-4A – Title teams not going anywhere

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Each state champion from Class 1B to 4A has a good chance of finding themselves in familiar territory again next year. All of these teams won a state title with the exception of Camas who was in the title game. Here's why the can all repeat or three peat.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>4A- Camas</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Yes, they finished 2nd this year but make no mistake, they will be the favorite going into next season. They return their whole rotation from this season. That rotation had arguably the most talented team in the state. They ended up placing 2nd at the state tournament and will have a chip on their shoulders next season. They should be a nationally ranked team next season. [player_tooltip player_id='317648' first='Keirra' last='Thompson'] returns as the point guard. She and wing/post player [player_tooltip player_id='580772' first='Addison' last='Harris'] are on the national radar. [player_tooltip player_id='580773' first='Riley' last='Sanz'] had a breakout season and showed her ability to score the ball. It doesn't stop there, [player_tooltip player_id='361145' first='Reagan' last='Jamison'] is a versatile player with great length and talent. [player_tooltip player_id='590581' first='Sophie' last='Buzzard'] is a great shooter who can score. [player_tooltip player_id='589887' first='Kendall' last='Mairs'] provides more length and versatility, with a defensive mindset. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>3A - Garfield</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We will be looking at a possible three peat in 3A. [player_tooltip player_id='279612' first='Katie' last='Fiso'] is at the top of the list for college recruitment. She is a 5 star guard who can do it all. [player_tooltip player_id='391867' first='Sarah' last='Lessig'] brings back a unique combo of size and skill. [player_tooltip player_id='391868' first='Jayda' last='Lewis'] was 2nd team all state tournament and gives Garfield one of the best backcourt combos in the state.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>2A - Ellensburg </h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The winning streak they are on is impressive, not losing a game in two years. They will miss some big pieces. [player_tooltip player_id='115393' first='Olivia' last='Anderson'] has been a dominant force during their two title run as well as [player_tooltip player_id='115407' first='Rylee' last='Leishman'] in the backcourt. Still, there is enough coming back, led by point guard [player_tooltip player_id='375545' first='Jamison' last='Philip']. She is one of the top guards in 2A. [player_tooltip player_id='583788' first='Brooke' last='Ravet'] had a nice state tournament. [player_tooltip player_id='592523' first='Alana' last='Marrs'] will be back to provide size and length. Three peat? </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>1A -, Nooksack</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nooksack has the number one ranked player in the Class of 2024,in [player_tooltip player_id='281968' first='Devin' last='Coppinger'She already has one state title and two looks highly possible. [player_tooltip player_id='593747' first='Lainey' last='Kimball'] and [player_tooltip player_id='583786' first='Tana' last='Hoekema'] return as starters who played well in the post season and gives Nooksack toughness and size inside and out. Hoekema had a double double in the quarterfinals and grabbed 9 rebounds in each of her other two games in Yakima. Kailey Anderson went 4-7 from three in the quarterfinals off the bench. Nooksack will be back in the tournament next season looking for a very possible repeat championship. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Class 2B - Colfax </h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>State tournament MVP [player_tooltip player_id='366890' first='Brynn' last='McGaughy'] returns as one of the best prospects in the state regardless of classification. She was impressive, showing her versatility as a talented scorer inside and out. Her ability to rebound is a sight to see in itself. [player_tooltip player_id='580775' first='Hailey' last='Demler'] had a huge state tournament. She made 1st team all tournament and is just a sophomore. There were only three seniors on the roster and they have the best player in 2B.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Class 1B - Neah Bay</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were only two Seniors on the roster. The loss of tournament MVP [player_tooltip player_id='598105' first='Allie' last='Green'] will be felt.
