THE DAILY ASTORIAN • FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 2016 SPORTS/FROM PAGE 1 Gaston rallies for win at Knappa nets The Daily Astorian KNAPPA — It was Senior Night with a lot on the line Thursday at Knappa, where the Lady Loggers hosted Gaston, the Northwest League’s irst place team. And the Greyhounds had to rally from a Game 1 loss to win the next three, for a 24-26, 25-11, 25-22, 25-22 victory. With just one senior on its roster, Gaston improves to 9-0 in league, while Knappa falls to 5-4. Despite the loss, “I was extremely happy with our play tonight,” said Knappa coach Jeff Kaul. “The girls played one of their best games of the season tonight. As Paris (Vanderburg) said during our post game huddle, ‘when we play like that, even though we lost the match, it felt like we were winners.’ I agree with that statement 100 percent.” Knappa opened with a 6-1 lead on its way to the Game 1 win. Gaston came back strong in Game 2, winning by 14 points. Games 3 and 4 featured multiple lead changes and back and forth volleys, along with some incredible saves and digs, Kaul said, “with blocks and hits from both sides.” Gaston relied on junior middle blocker and hitter Charity Hall to keep a step ahead of the Loggers. Jaden Miethe had 21 digs to lead the Loggers, followed by Alisha Murphy with 16 digs. Kaitlyn Landwehr in- ished another all-around good night with 12 kills, 10 digs, six assists and three blocks, in addition to 13-of- 13 serving. Mack Strain had six kills, Vanderburg inished with ive assists, and Kaitlyn Truax added 17 digs. Fishermen score road victory over Valiants The Daily Astorian BEAVERTON — A stronger second half attack helped the Astoria boys soc- cer team post a 2-0 Cowapa League win at Valley Cath- olic Thursday. The Fishermen snapped a 0-0 halftime tie early in the second half, when Jose Gonzales scored off a cross- ing pass from Jorge Herre- jon; and Herrejon scored on a pass down the center of the ield from Trevor Byrd in the closing minutes to secure the win. “It’s the best game the boys have played yet,” said Astoria coach Lee Cain. “Valley put up a good ight, but we transitioned to a stronger attack in the sec- ond half, and made a vast improvement.” Astoria hosts Seaside Tuesday.

The No. 2-ranked Valiants added two more goals for a 4-0 halftime lead, on their way to a 9-0 Cowapa League win over Astoria Thursday night on a rain-slickened CMH Field. Valley Catholic improves to 6-0 in league play (7-3 overall), while Astoria slips to 1-4-1 in league. The Valiants entered the game carrying a six-game win streak, having outscored those last six opponents 32-1. They can now make it 41-1, as the offensive-minded Val- iants dominated play, allow- ing the Fishermen to cross mid- ield only a handful of times in each half. Astoria inished with just two shots on goal for the game, both free kicks by Jenna Rudolph in the second half. Valley Catholic scored its irst goal just three minutes into the game, when Callie Kawa- guchi dribbled the ball across the top of the penalty box, left to right, and scored from 20 yards out. Taylor Menkens scored on a header at the 5:03 mark, off a corner kick from Katelyn Snook — the second of 10 cor- ner kick opportunities for the Valiants. Chloe Brock scored on a nicely-placed shot in the 15th minute; and following a delected save, Menkens scored her second goal with 10:18 left in the irst half. Brock and Menkens each tacked on a goal in the sec- ond half, while Kawaguchi scored back-to-back goals in a four-minute span midway through the half, to inish with the hat trick Riley McGee scored off another corner kick for Valley’s inal goal of the night, with 12:07 left. Sparked by good play from Claire Albright and Ashlee Dal- ton, the Astoria back line held on and allowed just two corner kicks in the second half, with nice play in goal from Lexi Law, who made saves on two breakaways for the Valiants.
