The Eastside Lions defeated Camas 43-15 Saturday to win the Rugby Washington Boys HS championship.
The Eastside Lions will play Camas in the Washington state Boys HS final after the Lions won this weekend.
Eastside were already set to play in the final, as they entered the final regular-season game at 7-0. But Camas, idle this weekend, were hoping Liberty would lose this game. Had Liberty won, the Patriots would have been 4-3-1, just ahead of Camas at 4-4.
Eastside won impressively over Camas this weekend, taking a game between two of the strongest teams in the state of Washington, and perhaps more than that.

In snowy conditions, that became more messy after the sun showed up toe convert it all to slush, Eastside got two tries from Lewis Chambers and tries from Kai Holec and Parker Jackson.
Eastside also got a penalty try, while Kellen Eskridge added a conversion.
Washington's Rainier Highlanders recorded a nicely-taken win over Camas, one of the top teams from Oregon.
Both teams came out looking for a physical edge in the match, but Rainier were able to score two tries at the 11th and 14th minutes to grab early control of the match.
