Spring sports review: Columbia River soccer, Seton Catholic baseball finish third in state

A couple of teams brought home trophies for placing at state this past weekend.

A few individuals climbed atop the podium as champion, too.

The athletic year is complete for the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association.

The Columbia River Rapids, looking to repeat as state soccer champions, ended up third place in the Class 2A boys soccer tournament. River fell to Squalicum in the semifinals on Friday, then bounced back for a 2-1 victory over Sehome in the third-place game.

The Seton Catholic Cougars had a similar journey in the Class 1A state baseball tournament. Seton lost to Montesanon on Friday in the semifinals, but rolled past Overlake/Bear Creek 9-2 in the third-place game on Saturday. It is the first trophy for the baseball program.

In track and field, Cohen Butler capped off his incredible career with a state meet record performance in the 3,200. The Camas senior won it in a time of 8 minutes, 43.72 seconds.

Union’s Leilani Mays won the 100 hurdles.

The region also can celebrate two pole vault champions: Sierra Garden of Camas won the 4A girls pole vault and Mason Thomas of Woodland claimed the 2A boys pole vault.
