it. I told him to enjoy the
living heck out of it.”
Rollins said he plans to
major in agricultural entre-
preneurship, which includes
business, economy, agricul-
ture and accounting.
A man of many talents
The Cardinal finished
5-5 overall and 4-2 in Spe-
cial District 2-West play
this past season.
They lost to St. Paul
44-8 in a mud bowl in the
first round of the 1A state
playoffs. It was the Cardi-
nals’ first trip to state since
2009.
Rollins had 89 yards
rushing, nine tackles and
a quarterback sack in the
game.
Rollins was a first-
team all-league kicker and
punter, and was named to
the second team as a run-
ning back and guard, and
was an honorable mention
linebacker.
Rollins rushed for 712
yards on 91 carries for 13
touchdowns. He also led
the Cardinals with 106
tackles.
“Tanner is a kid who
is very versatile,” Stefani
said. “He is very football
savvy. He could roll into
the center position and
learn that position very
quickly. I could definitely
see him playing center. His
versatility is going to be
the big thing for him going
to college.”
Rollins also is an alter-
nate for the East team for
the 69th annual East-West
Shrine Game on Aug. 6 in
Baker City.
“Most of us kids who
come and play are farm
kids,” Rollins said. “We
have to work and that work
ethic translates to the foot-
ball field and the class-
room. I don’t live on a
farm, but I work on a farm
and ranch.”
Rollins also played bas-
ketball for the Cardinals,
who finished their season
20-2 overall and 9-0 in Big
Sky League play. They
lost a state play-in game
to Nixyaawii to end their
season.
Rollins averaged 5.4
points, seven rebounds,
2.5 steals and 2.1 assists
a game for the Cardinals.
He was selected to the Big
Sky League honorable
mention team.
Rollins and his younger
brother Bryce get their ath-
letic talents from their par-
ents Ed and Tricia.
Ed Rollins played foot-
ball and wrestled at West
Seattle High School, and
went on to play football at
Montana State, where he
was an offensive lineman
for the Bobcats.
Tricia played basket-
ball and was a cheerleader
at Lima High School in
Montana.

games played — he aver-
aged 38.2% from 3-point
range and shot 39.4% from
the field. In his freshman
season, Brown played in
10 games and scored 9.9
points per game off 56.3%
shooting from long range
and 56.1% from the field.
The additions come in
the wake of losing senior
guard Max McCullough
from the starting lineup.
Guard Zane Wright left
the program following
his graduation, while for-
ward Xavier Lovelace left
Eastern after finishing the
year second on the team
in scoring. Guard Manny
N’Tula will also transfer
this offseason to play closer
to home.
Following the loss of
several guards, Eastern has
stocked up its backcourt
with a sizable group of new-
comers. The Mountaineers
are coming off a season in
which first-year head coach
Kemp led the way for a
18-13 record overall and a
12-10 record in conference
play.
