Outlaws clawed by
Cougars on the gridiron
By Rongi Yost
Correspondent
The Outlaws were out-
matched in their home game
against the Cascade Cougars
on Friday, October 5, and fell
in a final score of 30-7.
Both squads played excel-
lent defense in the first quarter,
and neither team was able to
get on the scoreboard. Sisters’
two big defensive highlights
were two fourth-down stops.
In the second quarter,
Cascade completed a long
drive for a touchdown and
were good on their two-point
conversion.
The Outlaws’ next drive
stalled, and a muffed snap on
the punt left the ball downed
on the one-yard line. Cascade
plunged across the line into
the end zone for the TD, and
again converted on the two-
point conversion.
Sisters answered back later
in the quarter with a strong
punt return, and then finished
their drive with a three-yard
TD pass from Taylor Fendall
to Korbin Sharp. Wyatt
Hernandez kicked it through
the uprights for the extra point
and the Outlaws narrowed the
gap to 16-7 at the half.
Cascade dominated play
the entire second half. The
Cougars scored on a long TD
run in the third to pull to a
23-7 advantage.
The Cougars’ defense
blitzed on almost every play,
which overwhelmed Sisters’
offensive line. The aggressive
Cougars were in Fendall’s
face on each drawback, and
Gator Haken was harassed and
stopped in the backfield.
Several Outlaws racked up
numerous tackles. Joel Miller
led the squad with 13 followed
by Matt Harris who recorded
nine. Eli Gurney also posted
nine tackles and recorded a
pass deflection. Trey Stadeli
and Hunter Spor had eight
tackles each. Ethan Martin
added six tackles and one sack.
Sharp finished the night
with four receptions for 53
yards and a touchdown.
Coach Neil Fendall noted
the fight his Outlaws dis-
played all night long, and told
The Nugget it makes him want
to fight also.
“My heart breaks for
them,” said Fendall. “I just
want to see them get one, and
we’re going to just keep plug-
gin’ away.”
Miller and Martin played
with passion and drive
throughout the contest. The
duo told The Nugget that they
have a love for the game, have
the drive to keep going, and
have to keep chugging, even
when they’re down.
The Outlaws will play at
home against Philomath on
Thursday, October 11.

Two simple
ways to exercise
adherence
There is a simple way to
ensure you stick to an exer-
cise program: Enjoy it.
It is well known within
the community of social
psychologists and behav-
ioral scientists that a person
will continue to exercise as
long as they are enjoying the
process and determine that
they’re benefitting from their
efforts.
There are two inputs to
consider: Is the exerciser
getting fulfillment from lac-
ing up the shoes, grabbing
a weight, or buckling their

If someone heard that cart-
wheels were an excellent
exercise for back pain, and
decided to follow this advice
despite having no gymnas-
tic skills the activity will be
very short-lived. This is true
for any exercise program.
The exercise program must
be challenging AND must be
within a person’s limitations.
What is it that a person
wants to accomplish? What
do they enjoy doing? What
will keep this going? If walk-
ing for 30 minutes meets the
criteria of stress relief and a
time for a calm mind then
this shouldn’t be scoffed at.
If 30 minutes of walking is
intended to give someone
better legs and weight loss,
then the input won’t match
the outcome. Know this
while thinking about start-
ing a program. Imagine six
weeks down the line: Will it
be sustainable?
Be careful in the exercises
or activity being pursued,
diligently imagine goals and
whether the program will
meet them. Ask yourself if
those goals are compatible
with an enjoyable process.
Seek out helpful advice, and
like Mom always said: “don’t
do something just because
everyone else is doing it.”

bike helmet for an exercise
session? If so then they’re
likely to continue to exer-
cise. The second input: Is
this person achieving some-
thing? Beyond aesthetics,
there are a variety of consid-
erations. Does it help them
with stress? Are they learn-
ing new ways to move their
body? Is blood cholesterol
improving and insulin sensi-
tivity enhanced? If they are
achieving something that’s
personally meaningful, then
they’re likely to continue.
It’s apparent with the
flux of gym goers and yo-yo
exercise programs, diets and
classes, that people are hav-
ing a difficult time meeting
these two criteria. A per-
son may be getting results
they started out for, but
they’re miserable eating let-
tuce with an hour of bore-
dom on a treadmill every-
day. This person will soon
drop out because the cost is
greater than the benefit to
them. Conversely, someone
may enjoy a weight lifting
program, but isn’t seeing
the weight loss result they
sought after. This person will
also have short-lived exer-
cise adherence.
These two determi-
nants are a balancing act.
