Teubner runs wild in Gulls’ win
The Daily Astorian
SEASIDE — The Seaside
Gulls will have to wait ‘til next
year to get their Cowapa League
title … but they’re still very much
in the running for a state champi-
onship — this year.
Seaside put the finishing
touches on a great regular sea-
son Friday night, with a 19-14
win over eighth-ranked Banks at
Broadway Field.
After a bye next week, the No.
5-ranked Gulls will be one of the
frontrunners for the 2017 4A state
title, which would be their first
since 1994. The Gulls will host a
Sweet 16 game Nov. 3 or 4.
A big day for Alex Teubner on
offense, and turnovers on defense
helped Seaside win Friday’s
contest.
Banks ran 20 more offensive
plays than the Gulls, and out-
gained Seaside 431 to 366 — but
the Braves also had four turnovers
to Seaside’s one.
The Gulls jumped out to a 13-0
lead in the first quarter, following
a 21-yard Payton Westerholm to
Gio Ramirez touchdown pass, and
a 3-yard run by Teubner.
But the Braves battled back
with two scores before halftime for
a 14-13 lead at the break.
There was only one score in the
second half, and it belonged to the
Gulls.
Westerholm found Teubner for
a 15-yard touchdown play in the
third quarter.
And the score held up, as the
Gulls’ defense held off the Braves
in the final quarter.
Ramirez, Westerholm and Dun-
can Thompson each had an inter-
ception for the Gulls, and Teubner
recovered a fumble.
Teubner had one of the biggest
ground games in Seaside history,
rushing for 279 yards on 29 car-
ries, with a long run of 44 yards.
Westerholm completed 3-of-7
passes for 45 yards, with two
of his completions going for
touchdowns.
The Gulls had 321 yards rush-
ing, while the Braves had 321
yards passing.
Scappoose Indians post their final
Cowapa win over Astoria Fishermen
The Daily Astorian
The Scappoose football program
will likely have a tough challenge at
the 5A level beginning next school
year, so the Indians made the best of
their last game as a member of the 4A
Cowapa League Friday night at CMH
Field.
After giving up the first three
points of the game to Astoria, Scap-
poose scored the next 36, on its way
to a 36-3 win over the Fishermen in a
league finale.
Both teams advance to the post-
season, with the Indians receiving a
first-round bye as the Cowapa League
champion. Ranked 16th in the final
4A OSAA rankings, Astoria will take
part in a regional play-in game next
weekend — day, time and opponent
to be announced.
In two of their three previous
games at CMH Field this season, the
Fishermen won with shutouts (3-0
over Gladstone, 7-0 vs. Tillamook).
And after a scoreless first quar-
ter Friday, Astoria was on its way to
another, leading 3-0 on a 26-yard field
goal by Andrew Schauermann on the
first play of the second quarter.
But Scappoose senior Tevin Jean-
Colin Murphey/The Daily Astorian
Dylan Matteucci runs the ball for
the Astoria Fishermen.
nis returned the ensuing kickoff 60
yards to the Astoria 20-yard line, and
Jeannis was in the end zone seconds
later, catching a 20-yard touchdown
pass from Jerad Toman on first down.
Scappoose placekicker Benji
Davidson added a 34-yard field goal
just before halftime, for a 9-3 Indians’
lead at the break.
And it did not take long for Scap-
poose to take full control in the sec-
ond half.
After forcing the Fishermen to
punt on their first series, the Indians
scored in just three plays, a 30-yard
run by Jack Eggers.
The senior running back rushed
for 130 yards on just 15 carries, scor-
ing again on a 16-yard run with 3:30
left in the third quarter.
Scappoose had two touchdowns
wiped out by penalties, as the Indians
were flagged eight times for 70 yards,
but they still managed to score twice
in the fourth quarter.
Jimmy Jones had a 40-yard TD
run, and Connor McNabb caught a
20-yard scoring toss from Toman to
cap the Scappoose scoring.
Tyler Ranta had 47 yards rushing
for the Fishermen in his last game
at CMH Field, while Astoria quar-
terbacks Karsten Johnson and Trey
Hageman were a combined 8-for26
passing for 112 yards. Justin Villa
caught four passes for 34 yards.
Loggers dominate (again) in 46-6 win
The Daily Astorian
KNAPPA — Knappa took a break
from league play Friday, and didn’t
miss a step in pounding out their sev-
enth straight win of the season, 46-6
over Central Linn on the Loggers’
home field.
Knappa continues to walk through
the competition unchallenged through
seven games, their average score each
week being 43 to seven.
Ranked second out of the 27 teams
at the 2A level, the Loggers can fin-
ish off a perfect regular season next
Friday against Gaston (1-5 overall).
The Greyhounds have been outscored
149-35 in their last four games.
It’s a fun season to be a Knappa
Logger.
“I’m super proud of our kids,”
said Knappa coach Aaron Barendse.
“We played a very choppy team, we
stuck to the game plan and kept our
composure. The boys did a great job
representing our program, school,
community … but most importantly
themselves. These kids are special.”
The Loggers are going to score
lots of points per game no matter who
the opponent is, but ultimately it may
be the defense that leads them to their
first state title since 2008.
“The defense stuck to the game
plan and stuffed a good football
team,” Barendse said. “Braedon
(Eltagonde), Luke Goozee, Jacob
Ford, Cody Stuhr were asked to do a
less-than-glamorous job. They took
it on and completely ruined Central
Linn’s power run game. Reece (Hunt)
and Jaxson (Goodman) played great
up front as well.”
On the outside, defenders “Joe
(Ramvick) and Eli (Takalo) did great
stretching plays out,” he said. “Mason
Hoover had another great game
defensively, as well did (Spencer)
Teague. Kanai (Phillip) once again
took away their top receiver and Reu-
ben’s (Cruz’s) physical play stuffed
anything that looked like it would
break. Great team effort defensively.”
Meanwhile, the Knappa offense
was its usual unstoppable self.
“We came out firing on all cylin-
ders,” Barendse said. “Mason Hoover
had a huge run early to give us our
first TD. The line blocked very well.
Kanai had some big receptions and
Bubba (quarterback Kaleb Miller)
was Bubba, calm, cool and collected
making some great plays with his arm
and feet.”
Goozee also had a big run for a
touchdown.
“It was a huge team win for us,”
Barendse said. “To play a physical
team and beat them at their game in
the trenches was great to see. Looking
forward to next week’s game and fin-
ishing up the regular season.”
The Astoria volleyball team’s
appearance in the regional play-in
round was a walk in the park Sat-
urday afternoon, as the Lady Fish-
ermen made quick work of their
match with North Valley, winning
25-11, 25-13, 25-7.
And now it’s on to the Sweet 16
for Astoria, which will hit the road
for the next round (Saturday, Oct.
28), possibly a long road trip to
either Crook County or Baker.
No matter where they go, Asto-
ria coach Jessie Todd and the Lady
Fish will be happy to be there.
“They’ve never been there
before,” Todd said of her team.
“And it’s real exciting that we’re
still playing. At this time last year,
we were done. We were 28th in the
state (Astoria is now ranked sev-
enth in the final ranking), and we
missed the play-in round.”
Astoria was never threatened
in Saturday’s matinee, as they dis-
posed of the Knights in three quick
games.
“I was very pleased,” Todd said.
“The girls were really focused.
They came in early, and they came
out strong once the match started,
right from the start. And they
stayed strong throughout.”
Kes Sandstrom had a team-
high 11 kills and a block, while
Julia Norris added eight kills and
a block. Darian Hageman also got
in on the attack, with six kills to go
with two blocks.
Corrin Howard finished with
25 digs, and Chelsea Christensen
added 16 digs.
“We talked after the match about
going on the road and being ready,”
Todd said. “I just said, ‘there’s 16
teams left, and you’re one of them.’
I think they can appreciate that, and
they’re excited to be there.”
It will be Astoria’s first state
playoff match since 2014, when
the Fishermen lost a first round
match at Marshfield.
Two years ago, Todd took her
Sheridan team to the 2015 3A state
tournament at Forest Grove High
School, where this year’s 4A tour-
nament will take place Nov. 3-4.
In other regional play-in action
Saturday, Seaside was unable to
secure a return trip to the Sweet 16,
as Sweet Home swept the Gulls,
25-17, 25-7, 25-21.
Royals romp
to 42-19 win
over Warrenton
The Daily Astorian
PORTLAND — Portland
Christian turned a seven-point
halftime lead into a 42-19 victory
Friday night, as the Royals hosted
Warrenton in a Lewis & Clark
League football game.
For the second week in a row,
the Warriors played well early, as
a 2-yard touchdown run by Logan
Fischer gave Warrenton an early
lead.
The Royals answered with a
pair of second-quarter scores — a
48-yard run by Zach Cummins and
a 13-yard jaunt by Kane Milhalak,
for a 14-7 lead at halftime.
Portland Christian was able to
open up a 35-7 advantage in the
opening minutes of the final period,
before the Warriors were able
to score a pair of fourth-quarter
touchdowns, including a 47-yard
punt return by Preston Miller and a
7-yard run by Fischer.
Portland Christian had 354
yards in total offense, to Warren-
ton’s 138. Warrior quarterback
Jacob Morrow was 3-for-18 pass-
ing for 61 yards, while Fischer
rushed for 77 yards on 24 carries.
Warrenton hosts Clatskanie
Friday.
