nappa’s only senior has the Log-
gers off to a 2-0 start in league —
much of it due to a killer, left-handed
jump serve by Dietrichs. The outside
hitter opened the season with 17 kills,
11 digs and four ace serves in a loss at
Warrenton. In Knappa’s league opener
(a sweep over Columbia Christian),
Dietrichs had eight service aces to go
with fi ve kills. She added 10 kills with
fi ve aces in a three-game sweep over
Faith Bible.

he senior quarterback for the
fi fth-ranked Warriors could be
setting some single-season records
this year. In the fi rst two games,
Bodden Bodden is 29-for-55 passing
for 393 yards. On the ground, he
has rushed 19 times for 127 yards.
Bodden Bodden threw three touch-
down passes in an opening win over
Knappa, then ran for two scores in a
loss at Heppner. Defensively, he had
an interception in both games.
Gladstone holds off Astoria, 21-20
Seaside blanks Newport
By GARY HENLEY
The Astorian
Astoria had just 73 yards rushing Fri-
day night to Gladstone’s 351.
But, the Fishermen took advantage of
the “Great Equalizer” against the Gladia-
tors: Turnovers.
Gladstone eventually won the non-
league football game at Dick Baker Sta-
dium, 21-20, but made it much tougher
than it should have been.
The Gladiators had four turn-
overs — three of which led to all three
Astoria touchdowns — and the Fisher-
men came within one successful two-
point conversion of winning the Week 2
matchup.
As it was, Astoria failed on two of its
three two-point attempts in the one-point
loss.
Gladstone senior running back Tate
Brechbiel was the star of the night,
rushing for 247 yards on 35 carries,
and sealed the game with a 47-yard
run on a third-and-nine play in the fi nal
minute.
The Gladiators were in great shape
with four minutes left, leading 21-12 with
the ball at the Astoria 14-yard line.
But a fumble gave new life to the Fish-
ermen, who scored seven plays later on a
50-yard pass from Rocky Rub to Colton
McMaster, who broke several tackles to
reach the end zone.
Astoria was unable to recover the
ensuing onside kick.
The Gladiators lost two of their four
fumbles, and Gladstone’s leading receiver
was Astoria’s Connelly Fromwiller, who
intercepted two passes by Gladiator quar-
terback Bradye Owen, who completed
just one pass to his own team.
Gulls 48, Newport 0
Heppner 15, Warriors 12
Warrenton’s best drive of the night came
at the end of the third period (11 plays, 65
yards), with Hordie Bodden Bodden scor-
ing his second touchdown on the fi rst play
of the fourth, on a 5-yard run.
The Mustangs answered with an 11-play,
65-yard march of their own late in the
fourth. But it wasn’t easy. With a fi rst-and-
goal at Warrenton’s 1-yard line, Heppner
promptly committed a false start, followed
by a center snap over the quarterback’s
head, which eventually set up a fourth-and-
goal from the 14.
And on one of his few completions of
the night, Heppner’s Landon Mitchell
found Kason Cimmiyotti in the corner of
the end zone for the go-ahead score.
Bodden Bodden — who completed
17-of-39 passes for 183 yards to six diff er-
ent receivers — threw his only interception
in the fi nal seconds to end Warrenton’s last
drive.
Ethan Caldwell caught fi ve passes for 79
yards for the Warriors, who should be back
in the win column later this week, when
they visit winless Culver.
The Warrenton Warriors, as the old say-
ing goes, left it all on the fi eld Saturday
night in Heppner.
Rated fi fth in the latest Oregon School
Activities Association rankings, the War-
riors — who should start picking up some
fi rst place votes at the 3A level — gave the
No. 1-ranked 2A team all they could handle
in the nonleague matchup.
Despite being outplayed by the War-
riors for three-and-a-half quarters, the Mus-
tangs used a late score to topple Warrenton,
15-12.
The Warriors controlled the game, and
made sure that nothing would come easy
for the Mustangs, who made it tougher with
countless mistakes of their own.
Heppner held an early 7-6 lead, but that’s
how it remained through three quarters.
At the 2A level, the Knappa Loggers
bounced back from last week’s loss at War-
renton with a 16-12 victory over Toledo,
which was ranked seventh in the latest
coaches poll.
Knappa (1-1) has a bye this week, then
plays Sept. 24 at Clatskanie (0-2).
In the 1A 8-man Casco League, the Jew-
ell Blue Jays improved to 2-0 with a 72-13
win at Siletz Valley. So far, nearly half the
games in the Casco have been forfeits.
Across the river, Ilwaco scored its fi rst
win of the season, defeating Toutle Lake
26-14; while Lummi Nation did the near
impossible, beating Naselle 58-20, snap-
ping a 24-game regular season win streak
for the Comets.
A September preview of a November
state championship game?
Fans may get that look later this week
when Seaside visits Estacada for a Week 3
nonleague football game.
The Gulls are certainly looking like they
will be contending in late November, as
Seaside cruised to another mercy-rule win
Friday, building a 41-0 fi rst half lead on
their way to an easy 48-0 win over Newport.
It’s been a fun season so far for Seaside:
Two wins at Broadway Field, and two per-
fect games for the Seagull defense, with
Seaside outscoring the opposition 103-0.
The Seaside defense has yet to be chal-
lenged, and the off ense has yet to be
stopped, with the Gulls averaging 10.8
yards per play.
Newport had 55 yards in total off ense, to
347 for Seaside. The Gulls had 249 yards
on rushing on 22 attempts (11.3 per carry),
while quarterback Carson Kawasoe was
7-for-7 for 98 yards.
