It has been quite a journey, these last 13 months for Reagan Jamison, Addison Harris, and the entire Camas girls basketball program.
Sometimes, it has felt like about 13 days.
And now? Well, the high school basketball season, a month after winning the state championship, is officially over for the Papermakers.
Jamison and Harris represented Camas on Sunday at the annual Northwest Shootout, an all-star game featuring the best seniors from Washington against the best from Oregon. Harris and Jamison were victorious again, helping Washington to a 101-80 victory.
“It’s crazy how much has happened in one year, 13 months,” Jamison said. “Going back to my junior year, it wasn’t the year I wanted, my team wanted.”
Jamison was hurt for most of that season, and returned to the court to help Camas make it to the state finals. But the Papermakers lost in the championship game.
They went all-in for the 2023-24 season.
“That tough year made the good moments so much better,” Jamison said. “Losing the state championship last year made winning this year so much more special.”
And then the accolades followed. Harris was the state tournament MVP. Jamison was on the all-tourney team, too, as was junior Keirra Thompson. Harris and Jamison, as seniors, got invited to the Northwest Shootout.
“Being able to have a healthy season and then compete in this great game against some of the best players in Oregon, it wrapped up my senior year,” Jamison said. “I’m glad I got to do it with Addie, too.”
A video highlight of the game showed Harris with a steal, and a fast-break lay-up, scoring after splitting two defenders.
“I did pretty good. A couple quick little baskets here and there,” Harris said. “It was a blast playing with those girls.”
The all-star team met for the first time on Friday, and they took this game seriously. There was a three-hour practice that day.
“Everyone around you plays on such a high level,” Harris said. “We just made each other better.”
Harris noted that many of the Washington players were on Camas’ scouting reports through the season. Now, she and Jamison were teammates with these former foes.
“It was fun to be sitting on the same bench as them,” Harris said.
Saturday night, both all-star teams attended a banquet. Every individual player was highlighted, with their accomplishments spotlighted.
“It was a really special experience,” Jamison said. “That speaks to how different and special this showcase was.”
During the game, Jamison defended 6-foot-4 Ava Heiden, an Iowa commit. Heiden and Jamison are club basketball teammates. Jamison said they were laughing at one another, enjoying the moments on the court.
Scott Thompson, Camas’ head coach, was at the Northwest Shootout, too.
“It’s kind of sad. It’s a chapter closing,” Thompson said. “I think back to when these girls came in as freshmen, and some of the introductory conversations I had with them. They were just so young, and so talented, and so coachable.”
Four basketball seasons later, the Papermakers are state champions, and two of the players are among Washington’s best in this all-star game which has been held for 30 years.
“Here we are, and they are playing their last high school game,” Thompson said. “It went by fast, but it was worth every second.”
Harris will be heading to Montana State after graduating high school. Jamison will be going to the Ivy League, playing for Penn.
Harris took the time to thank her family and friends for all their support through the years.
“I’m so glad God has given me such an opportunity for my sports to take me this far,” Harris said. “I wouldn’t trade my experiences for anything.”
“It’s still kind of surreal to me,” Jamison added. “It doesn’t feel like I’ll never be playing with these Washington girls, with Addie again. It’s crazy. It still hasn’t sunk in that I’m not playing high school basketball again. I’m just trying to enjoy these last moments, even though it just doesn’t feel real.”
