2B ܂ WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2018 ܂ APPEAL TRIBUNE Tall ships returning to Oregon in October Abby Luschei Salem Statesman Journal USA TODAY NETWORK If you missed the chance to see fam- ous tall ships Lady Washington and Ha- waiian Chieftain in person or just can- not get enough of them, good news: they are coming back to Oregon in October. Yes, you read that right — except this time, the two vessels will not be docked at the same port. From October 2-7, La- dy Washington will be docked in Coos Bay while Hawaiian Chieftain will be in Astoria. Zachary Stocks, the program devel- opment officer at Grays Harbor Histori- cal Seaport, said that having the boats at different ports helps them expand their reach on the coast. “Fall is actually our busiest time of year,” he said. “Folks come home from their summer travels and want to enjoy the last bit of sunshine before the rain starts.” Lady Washington, which has been featured in movies and series including “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl,” “Star Trek: Genera- tions” and ABC’s “Once Upon A Time,” is “a replica of the first American vessel to make landfall on the west coast,” ac- cording to a press release from Grays Harbor Historical Seaport. Along with Hawaiian Chieftain, the two ships visit approximately 40 ports each year where visitors get the chance to experience life at sea during the 18th and 19th centuries. Since the tall ships will not be moored together, Battle Sails, excur- sions where both ships recreate an au- thentic 18th-century naval battle, will not be available. However, Adventure Sails and stationary dockside tours are being offered along with the option for schools to reserve maritime heritage field trips. Each ship can also be char- tered for private events.

He's the kind of coach that still has an effect on me for sure." There was speculation in recent years that Casey was nearing retirement from coaching, and his name surfaced as a possi- ble replacement for then- OSU athletic director Bob De Carolis in 2015.

"I wish I had made every player better." Count former OSU standout Joey Wong among the players Casey helped become a better person and player. "He definitely got the most out of his players," said Wong, a Sprague High graduate who played second base on the 2007 national cham- pionship team.

Along with the nation- al championships, there were five conference championships. Casey left on his own terms. "I do think that it’s nice for somebody to work 24 years and you’re not hav- ing a press conference talking about how great a guy he is, but you had to let him go cause he’s had six losing seasons in a row," Casey said. Casey's tenure includ- ed controversy the last two seasons. Star pitcher Luke Heimlich pleaded guilty to molesting his 6-year old niece when he was 15, a story that became pub- lic in June of 2017 before the Corvallis Super Re- gional. It drew national attention. Heimlich did not ac- company the team to Omaha for the 2017 sea- son, but returned to Cor- vallis for his senior year and was named National Pitcher of the Year. Casey isn't sure what his future holds. "I have no oceans to sail, no mountains to climb. I have no hobbies. I don't know what the hell I'm gonna do," he said with a smile. "But I am ever grateful because I'm a blessed man." ghorowitz@States- manJournal.com or Twitter.com/ghorowitz Pat Casey Age: 59 Hometown: Newberg Coaching career: Spent the past 24 sea- sons as head baseball coach at Oregon State. ...
