We were hoping this decision would lift you up but unfortunately it seems to be a drag.

Here's how Washington teams stacked up at Camas this year (only best rank shown per school):

Division B
Redmond MS - 5th
Timberline MS - 8th
Skyridge MS - 13th
Asotin MS - 17th
Liberty MS - 21st
Evergreen MS - 30th
Willows Prep - 34th

Redmond appears to be the favorite to win B this year, holding their own against some very good teams. Timberline doesn't have much of a history, but they've shown themselves to be a contender this year, as I think they were unstacked at Camas.

Division C
Tesla STEM HS - 1st
Camas HS - 2nd
Bothell HS - 3rd
Redmond HS - 14th
Mountain View HS - 18th
Raisbeck Aviation HS - 21st
Curtis Senior HS - 28th
Central Valley HS - 37th
Asotin HS - 39th
Washougal HS - 40th
Seton Catholic HS - 46th

The top three appear to be set as Tesla STEM, Camas, and Bothell this year. Tesla STEM and Camas appear to have a slight edge over Bothell so far, and if they keep going at this pace, we could have a very close race in Division C this year in the top 2 (and maybe top 3).
