Lady Celts top Sprague
APPEAL,

Abbie Hawley made sure
McNary got off to a fast start,
scoring seven points in the fi rst
fi ve minutes, as the Lady Celts
defeated Sprague 59-40 on Fri-
day, Jan. 26.
“I had a lot of intensity in
my head and I knew that we
needed to win this game,”
Hawley said. “I was trying to
play as hard as I could. I think
we were just playing really good
as a team and that was our goal
today was to play as a team.”
Hawley broke open an 8-8
tie on a 3-pointer with three
minutes remaining in the fi rst
quarter.
Kailey Doutt then scored six
straight points to give McNary
a 17-8 lead heading into the
second period.
“We cannot feed off our of-
fense because we’re not always
going to be shooting well,”
McNary head coach Elizabeth
Doran said. “Right now that’s
kind of what happens with us.
We hit a couple of shots and
released in October, 2016, a year
before the executive board made
its fi nal decision, and had all six
Salem-Keizer schools, including
North Salem, in a league with
Bend. The committee proposed
19 drafts over the year and all
updates were emailed to every
superintendent, athletic director
and principal in the state. The
drafts were also posted to the
OSAA Website.
“We wanted people to get
the information,” said Weber,
who also noted that more than
200 people from all areas of
the state at both small and big
schools testifi ed in person at
one of the public hearings.
Salem-Keizer superinten-
dent Christy Perry talked about
the student poverty in the dis-
trict and that extra travel would
be another barrier for students
to get a diploma. She pointed
out that many student athletes
struggle to pay any fees and
don’t have access to private
lessons. But Weber and Radm-
acher noted that schools with
free and reduced lunch had the
opportunity to move down a
classifi cation. North Salem did.
McKay did not.
Perry argued that pov-
erty wasn’t just a McKay is-
sue, pointing to the 41 percent
poverty level at McNary. She
said athletics “keeps students in
school and get them across the
(graduation) stage.”
Salem-Keizer said that each
of its schools would make
around 58 trips to Bend each
year. Using charter buses, due

we start playing better on both
ends of the court. I wish it was
the other way (feeding off de-
fense) but that is how it works.”
Leah Doutt and Paige
Downer each knocked down
a 3-pointer to stretch the Lady
Celts lead to 23-11.
McNary lead by double dig-
its for the rest of the game.
Sprague closed the fi rst half
on a 5-1 run to get within 30-
19 at halftime. However, the
Lady Celts answered with eight
straight points to stretch their
lead to 38-19 with 4:58 re-
maining in the third.
Kailey Doutt, who picked
up her third foul with 3:55
remaining in the fi rst half, fi n-
ished with 23 points in limited
action to lead McNary. Playing
with four fouls, Doutt scored
eight points in the fourth.
Hawley added 12 points.
Downer scored nine points on
three 3-pointers. Leah Doutt
also fi nished with nine points.
to the bus driver shortage, that
would cost the district $2,000
per trip. The district is also es-
timating $14,280 per school for
substitute teachers while coach-
es who also teach miss class time
to travel with their teams.
To lessen the amount of
trips, Weber showed a sample of
creative scheduling the OSAA
received from Bend athletic
director Dave Williams. Under
the example, sports like cross
country, track and tennis that
have a state qualifying meet at
the end of the season wouldn’t
play a league schedule. Williams
estimated a total of 136 trips
from Bend to Salem-Keizer for
all three Bend schools.
OSAA said it took a 30,000
foot view with classifi cation,
doing what is best for the entire
state. According to Dan Smith,
who runs oregonprepsports.
net, 10 leagues across the state
would travel more than Salem-
Keizer and the travel time for
the entire state was less than a
minute increase on an average
trip of 1:15. 36 to 1:16:32 from
the last four-year block.
Curt Schelley, superinten-
dent of Grant school district in
John Day and chair of the clas-
sifi cation and districting com-
mittee, said his teams travel six
hours one-way for league games
and were able to maintain a bal-
ance of academics and athletics.
“We have high poverty and
kids that live 40 miles from the
school and haven’t been nega-
tively impacted,” Schelley said.
“We often look through lenses
of our own school districts and
we have blinders on because we
want to benefi t our own dis-
trict.”
Dr. Julie Bingham, a clinical
psychologist in Salem, whose
daughters play soccer and run
track at South Salem, spoke of
the dangers of traveling to Bend
on the Santiam Pass. In a letter
she received from the Oregon
Department of Transportation,
she noted that there were 1,419
crashes on the pass from 2011-
2016 and 33 fatalities.
Bingham also pointed to a
letter from the Medford school
district sent to the OSAA about
the dangers of traveling to Bend
but a graph showed only 926
incidents between 2013-17 and
one fatality. She noted the driver
of a tanker truck who crashed
and died on the Santiam Pass in
December.
Schelley, who coached bas-
ketball at Summit, countered by
saying he valued the trips over
the Santiam Pass to Salem more
than trips south over highway
97 or through Mt. Hood be-
cause they were closer and the
roads were better maintained.
Salem-Keizer also asked why
OSAA chose a six-class system
when the committee previously
stated that a fi ve-class system
would have less traveling.
Schelley said while a fi ve-
class system did decrease travel
for some schools, it increased it
for others. When athletic direc-
tors from across the state met
for a conference in Sun River,
directors from 1A to 5A schools
overwhelming wanted a six-
class system while those in 6A
chose a fi ve-class system.
“No school or student
should be given more priority
than another school or student,”
Schelley said. “Were’ trying to
do the best we can to make sure
this is the best system for the
state or Oregon.”
