Outlaws tackle the Tigers on the gridiron
By Rongi Yost
Correspondent
The Outlaws trounced the
Tigers 34-10 at Junction City
on Friday, October 16, and
pushed their league record to
6-0.
Sisters started off strong,
holding Junction City to
three-plays-and-out. Mitch
Gibney blocked the ensuing
punt off the left edge, and
Jacob Gurney recovered it
and ran it down to the Tigers’
15-yard line. After a nine-
yard run around the edge by
Logan Schutte, Gibney fin-
ished the drive off with a six-
yard sprint for the score.
The Outlaws’ third posses-
sion was an eight-play drive,
highlighted by a 51-yard run
by Gibney off the left side.
He took the pigskin another
two yards and punched it
across for his second TD of
the night.
Sisters also got two touch-
downs by Logan Schutte, one
a nice 30-yard cutback run
off a sweep to the right side
in the second, and a four-yard
plunge off the right side in the
third.
Quarterback Tanner Head
went three-for-four on the
night passing, which included
a 24-yard screen pass to his
brother Tyler in the fourth
quarter to finish off the
Outlaws’ scoring.
Junior Johnny Gurney
had a big night defensively,
picking off two Junction City
passes. Tyler Head also had a
pick in the second quarter that
helped set up a score.
Sisters had big games from
Jacob Gurney at linebacker,
CL
and the Outlaws’ three defen-
sive tackles, who rotated in
— sophomore Brady Wessel,
senior Rory Petterson, and
freshman Joel Miller — were
key in stopping the Tigers’
inside-run game, and forc-
ing the ball outside and into a
passing mode.
Coach Gary Thorson said,
“Our defensive coordina-
tor, Neil Fendall, has done
a phenomenal job with our
defensive unit, and they are
probably the key why we are
undefeated at this point in the
season.”

Saba led the defense with
five tackles on the night.
Johnny Gurney recorded three
tackles and two interceptions,
and Tyler Head had three
tackles and one interception.
Gibney registered three sacks
and one blocked punt.
Special teams were also a
bright spot for the Outlaws,
with Gibney’s big blocked
punt, and Zach Morgan, who
did well for the Outlaws, both
punting and on kick-offs.

Saba added two PATs as well.
Logan Schutte was the
Outlaws’ leading rusher,
with 104 yards on 15 carries.
Gibney added 99 yards rush-
ing on 14 carries.
“We continue to improve
each week, and are playing
very solid right now in all
aspects of the game,” said
Thorson. “Our defensive
coaches did a very good job
this week in terms of prepara-
tion, and offensively I thought
our offensive line had a good
night overall against a defense
that threw a lot at them to
block. I cannot say enough
about the effort this team puts
out on Friday nights, and it is
inspiring to watch as a coach.
We have a great fan base right
now, and the program appre-
ciated them making the trip
over the mountains for the
game.”
Sisters (6-0) is currently
ranked No. 1 in the state in
4A. The Outlaws will cel-
ebrate homecoming in their
game against Elmira on
Friday, October 23. Kickoff is
set for 7 p.m.
BOISE, ID (AP) —
Federal scientists using new
technologies have mapped a
Cold Water Climate Shield,
an area spanning five western
states that could support via-
ble populations of native spe-
cies if the region continues its
warming trend.
Scientists say mapping the
cold-water refuges for cut-
throat trout and threatened
bull trout could help resource
managers make decisions
aimed at preserving popu-
lations of those and other
cold-water-dependent native
species in Idaho, Oregon,
Washington, Montana and
Wyoming.
Scientists say streams in
the region have warmed up
about a degree over the last 30
years and are getting hotter.
Advances in stream tem-
perature sensors and envi-
ronmental DNA sampling,
a new way to find out what
species inhabit a stream, have
allowed scientists to create
the detailed maps.
