CLATSOP CLASH | SEASIDE WINS
FOURTH STRAIGHT
Penalty kick wins
it for Seaside girls
The Daily Astorian
Seaside scored its second
win of the season Tuesday,
in a late night Clatsop Clash
game with Astoria at CMH
Field.
A penalty kick by Sea-
side’s Lizzy Barnes midway
through the second half was
the game’s lone goal, giving
the Gulls a 1-0 victory.
The Lady Gulls take over
fourth-place in the league
standings, at 2-4-1 (2-7-2
overall), ahead of Astoria
(1-5-1).
“The beginning of the
game started a little slow, but
then we started applying some
pressure,” said Seaside irst-
year coach Josh Garhofer.
“And Patty Granillo (a senior
defender) was a big part of
that. Offensively, we had a
few corner kick opportunities,
but we just couldn’t score.
“GeriAnn Klaffke had a
tremendous game for us.”
Klaffke — a junior goal-
keeper who has been substi-
tuting for Kirstin Lent (con-
cussion) for the last two
weeks, recorded the shutout
in goal for Seaside, which
plays at Valley Catholic next
Tuesday.
Astoria has a week off
before playing at Tillamook
Tuesday.

Seagulls score
in 71st minute
to snap tie

W
ARRENTON — It
was a little “Clatsop
Clash Throwback” in
boys soccer Tuesday night at
Volunteer Field.
Physical play, yellow cards,
a penalty kick, a late goal to
win it … and in the end, Sea-
side posted its fourth-straight
win over Astoria, 2-1.
And four Clatsop Clash
victories for the Gulls — is
something Seaside has not
done since the 1990s.
Colton Carter’s goal off a
short pass from Henry Chap-
man in the 71st minute snapped
a 1-1 tie, and kept Seaside’s
league title hopes alive.
Seaside dominated the irst
half of play in both time of
possession and shots on goal,
yet led just 1-0 at the break.
In the 13th minute, Car-
Seaside’s Brent Walsh, left, and Astoria’s Gustavo
Velazquez battle for possession in first half action.
ter took a crossing pass and
hammered home the irst shot
of the game, scoring from 25
yards out.
Minutes later, Carter
banged a shot attempt off the
right post.
The Fishermen came out
charged in the second half, and
played evenly with the Gulls
for the irst 10 minutes.
A shot on goal by Trevor
Byrd was saved by Sea-
side keeper Jesus Perez, and
the Gulls managed to break
up a pair of corner kick
opportunities.
It was a penalty kick that
evened the score in the 53rd
minute.
At the 13:50 mark of the
second half, a handball was
called on the Gulls in the pen-
alty area, resulting in a pen-
alty kick for Astoria’s Rafael
Alcantar.
As Seaside keeper Jesus
Perez dove to his right, Alcan-
tar went the other way, placing
the ball into the lower right of
the net to tie the game.
The next 10 minutes was
Seaside senior Jackson Januik
vs. Astoria goalkeeper Kyle
Birge.
A recharged Januik was
all over the ield, and deliv-
ered three laser-beam shots on
goal, all of which were saved
by Birge.
“Kudos to the Astoria
keeper,” said Seaside coach
John Chapman. “He made
some great saves. The two
low attempts by Jackson were
good shots, and (Birge) made a
couple of diving saves.”
The one shot that Birge
couldn’t save came with 8:50
left, when Henry Chapman
chipped a pass over an Astoria
defender, Carter gathered it in,
positioned himself for the shot,
and ired it into the back of the
net, just inside the right post.
In the closing minutes,
Januik broke up an Astoria
breakaway by Aldo Cruz, pre-
venting a possible goal.

Oregon Ducks look for
answers in bye week
By ANNE M.

EUGENE — This much
is clear: Oregon’s slide this
season can no longer be
looked at as a mere stumble.
With a four-game los-
ing streak, the Ducks are in
a hole that has put an 11-year
run in the postseason in dis-
tinct jeopardy. The Ducks are
2-4 overall and sit at the bot-
tom of the Pac-12 North.
Some fans are calling for
head coach Mark Helfrich to
be ired. Others are question-
ing the wisdom of new assis-
tant Brady Hoke’s defensive
changes, and even the use of
graduate transfers at quarter-
back for the past two seasons
rather than fostering long-
term player development.
Whatever the reason,
Oregon’s slide is a reminder
of how hard it is to get good.
And stay good.
When Helfrich took
the job at the start of 2013,
he had the daunting job of
replacing coach Chip Kelly,
who orchestrated Oregon’s
hyperdrive
spread-option
offense and led the Ducks to
their irst national champion-
ship game.
Then he had the daunting
task of replacing Heisman
Trophy-winning
quarter-
back Marcus Mariota. Ore-
gon lured a pair of graduate
transfers, irst Vernon Adams
and then this year Dakota
Prukop. Adams struggled
with injury his lone season
with the Ducks, and Prukop
lost the starting job after ive
starts this season to freshman
Justin Herbert.
Helfrich led the Ducks
to the irst College Football
Playoff championship game
just two seasons ago. But the
cracks started showing last
year when the Ducks went
9-4, their irst season with
fewer than 10 wins since
2007.

SAN FRANCISCO —
Donning fresh postseason vic-
tory gear, the Chicago Cubs
gathered on the mound and
posed for a group photo. They
jumped up and down, saluted
the fans cheering “Cub-bies!”
behind the visiting dugout and
then took the party inside.
Step one in their October
quest? Check.
Yet every one of manager
Joe Maddon’s men recognizes
the task ahead. The club with
baseball’s best regular-sea-
son record at 103-58 is being
counted on to end a 108-year
championship drought and all
the pent-up frustration in the
Windy City.
Chicago is headed back to
the NL Championship Series
for a second straight year,
eager to erase the memory of
a four-game sweep to the New
York Mets a season ago. Once
Matt Moore’s stellar night
was complete for San Fran-
cisco, the Cubs rallied with a
four-run ninth in a 6-5 victory
Tuesday that eliminated the
Giants in Game 4 of their NL
Division Series.
The same Giants who
had won the World Series in
every even year this decade
— 2010, ’12 and ’14 — and
had succeeded in 10 straight
postseason games when fac-
ing elimination.

GIVING BACK 2015-16

We are proud to present the 2nd annual edition of
Giving Back
Chicago Cubs’ Jason Heyward scores against the San
Francisco Giants during the ninth inning of Game 4.
Maddon said. “It’s pretty easy
when you want to have kids
act like kids. Listen, but you
see them on the ield, they
play. We play hard. I think we
play it right.”
Blue-clad loyalists stuck
around the ballpark long after
the inal out, cheering and
singing for the team favored
to win the World Series from
the start. The fans waited
about an hour before inally
heading for the exits.
Now, the Cubs go home
to wait out Thursday’s Game
5 of the Dodgers-Nationals
series and have a couple of
days to rest their legs before
Saturday’s NLCS opener.
Maddon will likely hand
the ball to veteran left-hander
Jon Lester in Game 1 at Wrig-
ley Field because he wasn’t
needed in a potential Game 5.
Chicago hasn’t been to
the World Series since 1945,
the year Billy Goat Tavern
owner Billy Sianis suppos-
edly placed his hex on North
Siders.
No pressure, certainly not
with this group that declines
to feed the superstition chat-
ter. No goat fear here, not with
a roster packing the talent and
the pluck to navigate the nerv-
iest late-game situation.
“Nobody really cares in
there about a curse or a goat
or anything else,” Lester said.
“If we make a mistake, we’re
not going to blame it on a
curse or anything else like
that. We’re going to blame it
on ourselves and be account-
able for it and move on to the
next play or the next moment.
