The win marked the end of the road for the Papermakers, who weathered perhaps state's toughest schedule to sweep the 4A Greater St. Helens League, beat 2A favorite Tumwater and reach the 4A state quarterfinals with an interim coach at the helm.

Kamiakin advanced to play top-seeded Graham-Kapowsin in the 4A state semifinals next Saturday, time and location are yet to be determined.
