A
storia will likely be
the team to beat in
Cowapa League soft-
ball next season, as the Lady
Fishermen landed seven
players on this year’s all-
league squad, fi ve of whom
will return next year.
This season’s Cowapa
all-League team included a
Player of the Year (senior
Hannah McCourt of Banks),
a Pitcher of the Year (Asto-
ria junior Julia Norris) and a
Designated Player of the Year
(Tillamook’s Miya Stahle).
Rosi Contri of Banks was the
only Coach of the Year.
In addition to Norris,
the Lady Fishermen had
four other fi rst team selec-
tions: junior catcher Kayla
Helligso, senior infi elder
Lexxis Lyngstad, junior
infi elder Hailey O’Brien and
sophomore outfi elder Halle
Helmersen.
Senior Jenna Barendse
and freshman Tenley Mat-
teucci were named honorable
mention.
Defending league cham-
pion Banks will lose four
fi rst-team players to gradua-
tion, including McCourt and
pitcher Kaylin Hernandez.
Seaside came up short of
the playoffs, but the Gulls
had more than half their start-
ers on the all-league team.
Seniors Alyssa Goin
and Brianna Hill were both
selected to the fi rst team, as
was freshman catcher Erin
Owsley.
Junior Emma Brown
and sophomore Kandice
Flaigg were both honorable
mention.

Jake Mullins has been
hired as the new varsity girls
basketball coach at War-
renton High School, ath-
letic director Ian O’Brien
announced Friday.
In a shake-up earlier in
the week, Robert Hoepfl
stepped down as the girls
basketball coach and ath-
letic director, and O’Brien
moved into his former role
as the Warrenton athletic
director.
Hoepfl and his family
will be moving to the east
coast, where his wife has
accepted a teaching posi-
tion in New Jersey. He had
served as the Warrenton
coach for the last four years.
O’Brien will remain as
the school’s head football
coach, in addition to his
duties as athletic director.
A 2004 graduate of War-
renton High School, Mul-
lins has been the varsity
assistant and head junior
varsity coach for the War-
renton boys program for
three years. He also worked
in the same role at Kennedy
High School in Mt. Angel.
Hoepfl took over as the
Warrenton girls basket-
ball coach in 2015-16, and
led the Warriors to season
records of 8-16, 16-9, 19-8
and 21-9 in his four-year
span as coach (64-42 over-
all, fourth on the school’s
list of coaching victories for
girls basketball). He was
the league’s Coach of the
Year in 2018.
Warrenton reached the
3A state tournament last
season, for the fi rst time
since 2010.
“What he’s done with
our girls basketball pro-
gram is awesome,” O’Brien
said of Hoepfl . “We haven’t
had that kind of success in a
long time.”
