A5 THE ASTORIAN • SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 2020 SPORTS OBITUARIES Thrilling night at Aiken Field Bruce Rochat Berney ond with no outs, and Sven Johnson wasted no time in ending it, with a line drive to center scoring Moore with the walk-off, game-winning run. “It took us six innings to wake up, but the boys never gave up,” said Astoria Ford coach Tyler Lyngstad. “I am extremely proud of the effort today.” The Astorian The most exciting game of the summer had the cars at Ernie Aiken Field honking Thursday night, when Astoria Ford rallied from a 7-2 defi - cit to start the bottom of the seventh inning for an 8-7 win over Warrenton. Neah-Kah-Nie followed with a 14-5 win over the War- riors in the second game, and the Fishermen scored a 9-8 victory over Knappa to cap the Junior State baseball tri- ple header. The Astoria Ford crowd was silent for the fi rst six innings of the opener, as War- renton pitchers Duane Falls and Dylon Atwood allowed just two hits over Astoria’s fi rst six at-bats. Meanwhile, the Warrior bats were also kept silent by Astoria Ford pitcher Mike Moore. After Warrenton scored four runs in the top of the fi rst inning — highlighted by back-to-back RBI doubles by Falls and Atwood — Moore took the mound in the sec- ond inning, and retired nine straight over three innings. The Warriors tacked on two runs in the fi fth, as Talon McGrorty was hit by a pitch, then eventually scored on a wild pitch. Josh Earls drew a walk, advanced to third on a sin- gle by Ryan Hoagland then scored on an errant throw. Pirates 14, Warriors 5 Hailey Hoff man/The Astorian Warrenton’s catcher Duane Falls looks for another play after getting an out at home plate. Falls pitched fi ve innings for Warrenton, struck out eight and walked fi ve, and also picked two runners off fi rst base. Trailing 7-2, the Astoria Ford bats fi nally heated up in the bottom of the seventh. Aiden Giles led off with a single to right, Dylan Carlson was hit by a pitch, Tony Tum- barello singled to right and Gunnar Olson drew a bas- es-loaded walk to force in the fi rst run. After a pitching change, Karson Hawkins doubled to the fence in right fi eld, bring- ing in two more runs. Moore had a ground rule double to deep left center to score Olson and Hawkins, tying the game at 7-7. Bo Williams drew a walk to put runners at fi rst and sec- Warrenton had to turn right around and play one of the hottest teams in the region this summer, the Neah-Kah- Nie Pirates. With previous wins this summer over Astoria Ford and Knappa (including a 13-0 victory over Astoria Ford two days earlier, and a 7-0 win over Knappa), the Pirates built an 8-2 lead over War- renton after four innings, then ended the game with six runs in the fi fth (plus the two-hour time limit) for a 14-5 win. Neah-Kah-Nie pitchers Keygan Wagner and Eddie Loza limited the Warriors to six hits, with four strikeouts and four walks. Falls had three of Warren- ton’s six hits, with a double. The Warriors entered the day with just 10 play- ers, including two incoming eighth graders, and fi nished their second game with nine, when outfi elder Hordie Bod- den Bodden left with a slight injury. “Our youth really showed today,” said Warrenton coach Lennie Wolfe. “It was the fi rst time our young pitchers had an off-day, and we didn’t exactly help ourselves in the fi eld (with eight errors in the loss to Neah-Kah-Nie). But we just lost a doubleheader, and even with the youth we have, we’re still 7-3 for the summer, so I can’t really complain.” Warrenton is scheduled to play additional games Mon- day and Wednesday at Aiken Field. Fishermen 9, Loggers 8 Astoria Ford had to rally again in the nightcap against Knappa, ultimately a 9-8 win for the Fishermen. Down 3-0 early, Astoria tied the game in the fourth, only to have the Loggers score three more runs in the fi fth for a 6-3 advantage. The Fishermen fi nally scored all the runs they would need with a six-run sixth inning. A bases-loaded double by Gunnar Olson tied the game at 6-6 and Tony Tumbarello brought in two more runs with a single. Trailing 9-6 entering the seventh, the Loggers staged a rally of their own, scoring twice and putting the tying run at third base, before Bo Williams retired the fi nal bat- ter on a ground ball to pre- serve the win. Seaside’s Kawasoe scores big victory in Portland By GARY HENLEY The Astorian The weather was hot, but Seaside’s Carson Kawasoe was hotter on the golf course earlier this week. A junior-to-be and three- sport athlete with the Gulls , Kawasoe scored a major win in his best sport, when he won the annual Bob Allard Memorial Golf Classic, Mon- day and Tuesday at Rose City Golf Course in Portland. Competing in the age 14-18 boys open division, Kawasoe shot a four-un- der par 140 to win by just one stroke over Cole Rueck, who shot a three-under par in Tuesday’s fi nal round. There were 60 golfers in the divi- sion, with top age group golf- ers from around the state. Kawasoe shot a 74 in Monday’s fi rst round, high- lighted by an eagle on the 10th hole. But it was Rueck who was atop the leaderboard after the fi rst round with a 70, fol- lowed by Nicholas Nautiyal (71), two golfers with a 72, and two others at 73. So Kawasoe had his work cut out for him in Tuesday’s second round. “I was tied for seventh, but I told the guys in my group, ‘you know guys, I’m just going to go win it.’ And I kept it going.” And Kawasoe answered the challenge by scorching the course in Round 2, with Misty Kawasoe Seaside’s Carson Kawasoe following his win in the Bob Allard Memorial tournament in Portland earlier this week. birdies on three of the fi rst fi ve holes. Kawasoe birdied No. 8 and fi nished the front nine with a 32. He recorded his second eagle on the 11th hole, on his way to a 34 on the back nine, for a six-under par 66. Kawasoe said Rueck “played really solid. He bogeyed (holes) three, six and nine. I had one bogey on the day and the putter got pretty hot on the front.” Still, Kawasoe was not following the leaderboard very closely. “I actually wasn’t,” he said. “Two of the kids I was playing with knew one of the dads in the last group, and we passed each other when I was on 18, and they were on 16. I had a two-shot lead with fi ve SEVENDAY FORECAST FOR ASTORIA TODAY SUNDAY MONDAY to play, and everyone seemed to know except for me. “Right after I tapped in on 18, they said, ‘I think you just won it.’” Kawasoe knew most of the other golfers in the tourna- ment. Rueck will be a junior at 5A Corvallis this year. “They were mostly from Portland and Vancouver,” he said. “Everyone congrat- ulated me, and they were all really cool about it. “It was defi nitely the big- gest win I’ve had,” he added. “I got myself over the hump. I started pretty slow this sum- mer, just trying to get back in the groove. After the fi rst round, I told my dad (Astoria Golf & Country Club golf pro John Kawasoe), ‘I think that might have got me over the hump.’” As for the Gulls, Seaside will be one of the favorites to win a 4A state title next spring — or whenever high school boys golf returns to the course. The Gulls would have been one of the favorites last spring, with all of their golfers returning this year. “It was a bummer to have it canceled, but I was glad to have some tournaments this summer,” Kawasoe said. “Luckily I’m young, so I get a couple more seasons. Cur- tis (Kunde) will be our only senior this year.” The champion from each division of the Allard Memo- rial will receive an invitation to the Tournament of Major TUESDAY WEDNESDAY Astoria Feb. 3, 1935 — July 27, 2020 Bruce Rochat Berney, several Victorian homes, of Astoria, died peace- helped establish the His- fully in his sleep on July toric Landmarks Commis- sion and served 27, 2020, due to for several years complications as the city’s his- from COVID- toric preserva- 19.

I saw the highest standard of health safety practices in effect during my hygienist appointment today—much higher precau- tions than I’d seen in a local hospital when having tests last month. The new sanitation equipment and attention to patient safety at Klemp Family Dentistry is in keeping with a dental practice I consider cutting edge with respect to all my dental needs. It’s wonderful having a world class dental practice here at the coast, one where I can have procedures performed for which I used to have to travel to a specialist in Portland. I have been a patient of several local dentists in the past, but none had the skill and, more importantly, the attention to patient comfort that Dr Klemp provides.
