Zamora 6-3, 6-4. The duo
continued to improve and
hit consistent shots through-
out the match. VonStein
noted they still need to work
on their footwork and net
play.
Silva and Fitzke (No. 2
doubles) beat Verbin and
Sanchez 6-1, 6-1. Sophie and
Lauren are just sophomores,
and according to VonStein
should develop into a very
nice pair. They dominated
play and hit strategically
placed shots in their second
match together.
Fitzke said, <We9re a good
match and work together
well. Sophie9s serves are
really good and strong and
fast, and I9m stronger at
returning the ball. Today, we
worked hard to keep the balls
low because they had trouble
returning them.=
Winter and Rush (No. 3
doubles) defeated Garcia and
MacDowell 6-1, 6-1, and
Ezell and Jade Anaya (No.
4 doubles) beat Abildurger
and Gridinar 6-4, 4-6, 7-5, in
the most challenging match
of the night. It was Anaya9s
first match of the season, and
she did a great job. VonStein
noted that Jade is an ambi-
dextrous player, which was
very helpful. She played at a
steady pace, and her quick-
ness across the court was
very good.
<Overall, the girls have
made great improvement and
are doing very well,= said
VonStein.
The Lady Outlaws were
to make up a game with
Cascade on Monday, April
22, and then play at home
against Corbett on Tuesday,
April 23. They will travel to
Estacada on Thursday.

The Outlaws started their
week with a tough 15-2
loss at home to Summit on
Tuesday, April 16, but two
days later posted a 10-3 JV1
win at McNary.
In the win over McNary
on Friday, a mix of varsity
and JV players from both
teams played in steady rain.
The rain didn9t affect the
Outlaws9 performance as they
outplayed McNary from start
to finish.
Sisters held a 5-2 advan-
tage after two quarters of
play. In the second half, the
Outlaws held McNary to just
one goal, and tacked on five
more of their own for the win.
Gator Haken scored four
goals for the Outlaws and
Trey Stadeli contributed
two. Riley Sellers, Wyatt
Maffey, Max Palanuk, and
Matt Harris each scored one
goal. Connor Martin, Ricky
Huffman, Wyatt Maffey, and
Max Palanuk all had one
assist.
Harris scooped up nine
ground balls to lead the
Outlaws, but freshmen
Connor Martin, Gaven
Henry, Riley Sellers, Wyatt
Maffey, and Tanner Pease
really helped out as each of
them recorded five ground
balls. Sisters finished with
48 ground balls compared to
McNary9s 23.
The defensive unit
of Harris, Oscar Rhett,
Austin Ekern, and Mathew
Retherford had an excellent
game and made Anthony
Randolph9s job in the goal
much easier. They did a great
job, and limited McNary to
just 15 shots. Sisters also
won the faceoff battle 10-5,
and controlled the ball on the
offensive end.
Sisters had seven players
unable to attend the game,
so the 16 players that did
travel were able to get in a lot
of playing time and varsity
experience.
<This was a good game for
us to go on the road and get a
convincing win after our loss
to Summit at home earlier in
the week,= said Patton.
In Tuesday9s loss to
Summit, the Outlaws had
trouble stopping the Storm9s
fast break off the faceoff in
the first two quarters, and
were down 11-2 at the half.
Sisters did improve defen-
sively as the game pro-
gressed, and only allowed the
Storm three goals in the final
half.
Haken scored both the
Outlaws9 goals in their loss
to Summit on Wednesday.
Matt Harris led the team
with seven ground balls, and
goalie Anthony Randolph had
19 saves on 51 shots by the
Storm, which Patton stated

is excellent against such a
strong team.
Sisters committed 21 turn-
overs in the contest, com-
pared to Summit9s eight.
The Outlaws did have
several good shots on goal,
but unfortunately they were
saved by their very good
goalie.
Patton said, <Our young
guys continue to improve
from week to week, and the
older boys are doing a good
job of leading by example.
Despite the lopsided score,
we competed hard the whole
game, and had some positive
possessions to build on.=
The Outlaws will play at
home against Summit JV on
Wednesday, April 24, at home
against Marist on Friday, and
wrap up their week on the
road against West Albany on
Saturday.
