HOF, continued from Page A14 K E I Z E R T I M E S SE NIOR HO USING G U I D E Kintner was the fi nal indi- vidual athlete that was honored. Kintner was a standout football and basketball player for the Celtics from 1994 to 1998 and ended his career as one of the most decorated athletes in Mc- Nary history. Kintner was a fi rst-team all- league receiver and safety in 1996 and 1997 and was the Of- fensive Player of the Year in the Valley League. Kintner also re- ceived fi rst-team all-state hon- ors at both positions and played a pivotal role in McNary’s fi rst football state championship in 1997. On the basketball fl oor, Kint- ner was just as dominant, earn- ing fi rst-team all-league honors in 1997 and 1998. Additionally, he was named to the fi rst-team all-state squad in 1998. Kintner was the Salem Sports and Breakfast Club Ath- lete of the Week multiple times, as well as the Senior Athlete of the Year. He also was the KATU Oregon State Athlete of the Year in 1998. After his career at McNary, Kintner played receiver at Or- egon State University from 1998-2002. He ended his career with the Beavers with 47 catch- es for 627 yards and six touch- downs. “It’s nostalgic. I’ve visited with a ton of people here that I haven’t seen in a very long time,” Kintner said. “I don’t remember a lot of particular games. It all happens in a blur. But what I do remember are the people. I could tell you a million different stories about a bunch of different people in this room. I remember the people and the experiences more than anything.” McNary’s 2009 state cham- pionship baseball team was the last honoree of the evening. Their team roster included Sheldon Austria, Jake Burgess, Justin Burgess, Sean Curry, Tay- lor Jones, Jordan Keeker, Bri- an Kottek, Zach Moeller, Alex Oesterblad, Zack Olpet, Austin Owings, Nick Phillips, Taylor Shepard, Scott Stoddard, Spen- cer Tejedas, Garrett Van Cleave, Jared Van Cleave and Jackson Wilde. After reaching the postsea- son, the Celtics — led by 2009 Oregon Coach of the Year Craig Nicholson — easily won their fi rst two playoff games. McNary defeated Tualatin 12-8 in the quarterfi nals and then beat Tualatin 5-4 in the semis to reach the title game, where they would face off against Rose- burg. A dominant seven-inning pitching performance from Moeller allowed the Celtics to defeat Roseburg 5-1 to claim the state crown. “It’s all about family. Keizer is just a big family. The com- munity supports their players so well. We were just a byproduct of that,” Garrett Van Cleave said. “This team was a brotherhood. We were willing to run through a brick wall for one another and that bond couldn’t be broken.” McNary is expected to make more frequent hall of fame in- ductions in the coming years and has another ceremony scheduled in October. “We have a lot of great teams, great athletes and great coaches who haven’t been honored yet that need to get honored,” Jes- peresen said. ATHLETE of the Week presented by JACOB JACKSON Senior at McNary High School The senior shortstop went 4-for-4 with two doubles and two RBIs in McNary’s 11-5 loss to North Salem on Thursay, March 21. Jackson is second on the team in hitting with a .333 batting average and leads the squad in walks (6) and runs scored (7).

BASE, continued from Page A14 appearing to forget their was only one out on a fl y ball to the outfi eld. “We made some bad base-running mistakes,” Keeker said. “Those are mental things that are disappointing to see.” Allen seemed to recover on the bump following the fi rst in- ning as he got through the sec- ond and third fames with ease. However, it all fell apart in the bottom of the fourth. With two on and two out, an RBI-double by William Tsuka- maki put the Vikings up 5-1. Allen surrendered another run after walking the next two bat- ters. Then, Bernal hit a three- DIRECTIONS FROM KEIZER: I-5 South, exit left on Market St, continue past Lancaster Dr, right on Tierra St NE, left on Glencoe St NE UNIT TYPES: • assisted living • memory care studio apartments run triple on a misplayed ball from McNary left fi elder Noah Bach. “The misplayed fl y ball in left ended up being a really big play,” Keeker said. North Salem scored anoth- er unearned run on an error by Devon Bedoya and went up 10-1 as Allen was unable to fi n- ish the inning. On the verge of being run- ruled, McNary refused to give- in, despite the large defi cit. After a walk by Allen and a single from Jackson, Covalt laced a two-run double to the center fi eld wall in the top of the fi fth. McNary got a run in the top of the sixth on an RBI-ground- out from Bedoya and anoth- er run in the seventh on an RBI-double from Jackson.
