Outlaws make all-league listing
Patricia Joy Munro
August 28, 1934 — March 1, 2017
By Rongi Yost
Patricia (Pat) Joy Munro
passed away with her family
by her side on March 1, at
her home in Salem.
Pat was born on August
28, 1934, in Moline, Illinois,
t o Lor en and Eve lyn
Dennhardt. She attended
school in Port Byron and
Hillsdale, Illinois and
Yamhill, Oregon, graduating
from Yamhill High School
in 1952.
Pat was active her entire
life, involved in her church,
school life when her kids
were young, and in her
community. She worked
for most of her adult life
including First National
Bank in Carlton, secretary
at Yamhill Grade School,
administrator and General
Manager at Black Butte
Ranch, and city planner at
the Marion County Planning
Department where she
worked until retirement.
Pat loved being with peo-
ple which was evident by
the many friends throughout
her life — from leading a
4-H club, to directing sing-
ing groups, playing softball
or organizing a Red Hat
Club, she was always busy.
Pat was always organizing
events, making sure holi-
days were celebrated, and
never missing a chance to
attend family activities.
Pat had a “sparkle” and
was known for her genu-
ine smile and laugh, her
bright colors, and matching
outfits. She loved working
in the yard, caring for her
flowers and always updat-
ing her curb appeal. She
sewed, crafted everything,
and loved to paint.
But the love of her life

was her family. She was
proud of her children and
grandchildren, never miss-
ing a chance to let them
know how much they were
loved. Our hearts are a little
broken, but we know she is
at peace.
Pat was preceded in
death by her parents, Loren
and Evelyn Dennhardt and
her brother, Jim Dennhardt.
She is survived by her chil-
dren, Janelle Beers (Bob) of
McMinnville, Julie Bellows
(Dan) of Carlton, Jeff
Munro (Lori) of Sherwood,
8 grandchildren, and her sis-
ter Loryn Moore of Canby.
A memorial celebration
will be held on March 18,

McMinnville. Donations

The boys basketball team
finished league as Sky-Em
Co-Champions and had five
players selected to all-league
teams.
First team honors went to
senior Keegan Greaney and
junior Ty Horner.
Keegan was only one
of the two returnees to
the Outlaws’ squad this
year. He was a third-year
first team all-league pick
and was an integral part
of the Outlaws success.
“Keegan has been a key
player on our team for three
years, and is literally one
of the best defenders in the
state,” said Coach Rand
Runco. “He is a tireless and a
tenacious defender. One vet-
eran coach at the all-league
meeting said that their entire
team could not score when
Keegan was in the game.”
Ty moved back to Sisters
as a junior and had a very suc-
cessful season his first year
back for the Outlaws. Horner
improved all season long and
was a dominant force inside
and outside.
Runco said, “Defensively,
he changed opponents play
and defended the basket.
He was key to the Outlaws’
defense, which continually

kept teams 20 points below

was a force in and out of the
paint. He increased as a threat
as the season progressed.
League coaches felt he was
the most improved player
throughout the season.”
Ben Saba, Tanner Head,
and Jack Berg were all honor-
able mention.
Saba was outstanding for
the Outlaws as a first-year
point guard. He was a fierce
competitor and did a great job
running the offense.
Runco said, “Ben was
tenacious and completely
unselfish. He had some key
games when he really stepped
up and carried us.”
Tanner stepped into a
starting role when his brother
Tyler was injured in the sec-
ond game of league, and fin-
ished as one of the leagues’
top rebounders.
“Berg is just a sophomore,
and in his first full year on
varsity, was a huge offensive
threat. Jack is also an excel-
lent scorer, especially from
behind the arc,” noted Runco.
“League awards are hard
because every player on the
team contributed equally,
with different roles,” said
Runco. “Any award that a
player gets is because of his
teammates, and this team
exemplifies that.”
Rand Runco, and his staff,
David Godfrey and David
Daniels, were named the
league’s Coach of the Year.
Runco told The Nugget that
all coaches were key to the
award and it honors the entire
program.
The Outlaws finished
17-8 overall and lost only
four games to 4A opponents.
They lost in a heart-breaker
in the first round of the state
playoffs on a last-second shot
from Gladstone.
