MAY 24, 2019, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE B7 McNary’s upset attempt falls fl at BY MATT RAWLINGS Of the Keizertimes Despite ending their reg- ular season with multiple injuries and fi ve straight de- feats, the McNary baseball team was still able to earn an OSAA playoff berth. Unfortunately for the Celtics, they were matched up with #5 West Linn, who showed why they have been one of the best high school baseball programs in the state for the last fi ve years. McNary only had three players reach base for the entire contest as the Celtics saw their season come to a close with their 8-2 loss against West Linn on Mon- day, May 20. David Allen, McNary’s ace, was on the hill for the Celtics in his fi rst ever post- season outing. Allen proved over the course of the year that, no matter who they’re playing, he could keep his team in the game if he had his best stuff. However, the Lions were able to get to the McNary right-hander in the bottom of the fi rst. After getting the fi rst out, Allen issued back-to-back walks, then gave up a single to load up the bases. Allen got up 0-2 in the count on West Linn’s Zach Bell, but he left the follow- ing pitch out over the plate, and the Lions designated hit- ter crushed the ball over the wall for a grand slam, putting the Celtics in an early 4-0 hole. “It takes the wind out your sails a little bit when they hit a grand slam in the bottom of the fi rst,” McNary head coach Larry Keeker said. Although he bounced back to throw scoreless frames in the second and third innings, Allen gave up a two-run bomb to JJ Hoover in the bottom of the fourth, extending McNary’s defi - cit to 6-0. Allen fi nished his night after fi ve innings, giv- ing up six earned runs on eight hits. On the offensive side, the Celtics were faced with the tough task of facing one of the top pitchers in the state in Jonathan Kelly — who will be pitching at Xavier University next spring. In his fi ve innings of work, the West Linn righty didn’t give up a hit and re- tired 15 of the 16 batters that he faced. “(Kelly) was better than anyone we faced all sea- son,” Keeker said. “Not only did he have a plus-fastball, but he threw breaking ball pitches for strikes whenever he wanted to. We were out- matched quite frankly.” McNary was actually be- ing no-hit for the fi rst six in- nings of the contest, but se- nior captain Ty Covalt fi nally provided a bright spot for the Celtics in his fi nal high school game. After Riley Gates drew a leadoff walk, Covalt sent the fi rst pitch he saw deep over the wall for a two-run ho- mer to put the Celtics on the board — it was McNary’s only hit of the game. It was also Covalt’s fi rst dinger of his high school ca- reer. “I was really happy for Ty,” Keeker said. “It was fun to see him do something positive because not much else was going right in that game.” McNary fi nished the sea- son with a record of 10-15 and was 5-7 in Mountain Valley Conference play, fi n- ishing fi fth.

TRACK, continued from Page B8 seventh in the 300-hurdles (42.28 seconds) and Nikita Martushev also placed sev- enth in the 400m (53.15). McNary freshman Aron Montoya snuck onto the po- dium by grabbing an eighth place spot in the javelin (140-8). McNary’s top overall fi n- isher of the day came on the girls side thanks to Sabella Alfaro, who placed fourth in the javelin with a throw of 115-11. Alfaro, however, came into the meet as a state-hopeful, but fell eight feet short of her personal-best. “(Alfaro) didn’t have a bad day by any means. She went out there and competed well. She just didn’t have her best day,” Gauntz said. Isabella Walker placed fi fth in the high jump (4-10) while Kennedy Buss took sixth in the discus with her personal-best throw of 101- 7. Brandi Grundberg also took sixth in the pole vault, hitting the 10-foot mark for the fi rst time in her career. Kylie Dean made it to the podium by placing eighth in the shot (34-8.25).
