Class of 2022 graduates are
making their college debuts

AREA ATHLETES BEGINNING
THEIR COLLEGIATE CAREERS
The stage is bigger and the lights a lit-
tle brighter for a group of former Clatsop
County athletes who will be making their
appearance at the collegiate level begin-
ning this month.
A few Class of 2022 graduates are
already suited up and ready to play this
fall, including Seaside’s Lawson Talaman-
tez (Eastern Oregon football) and Warren-
ton’s Avyree Miethe (volleyball at Blue
Mountain Community College).
Talamantez and the Mountaineers open
their season Aug. 27 in La Grande against
Montana Tech.
Meanwhile, Miethe was in action Tues-
day (along with Naselle’s Peyton Dalton),
when the Timberwolves opened the 2022
season at Walla Walla University.
In cross-country, Warrenton’s Zander
Moha is ready to run for Corban University
in Salem, with the fi rst meet (Cascade Col-
legiate Conference) scheduled for Sept. 9.
More local athletes will begin their col-
lege careers in the winter and spring.
Two Warrenton wrestlers have added
their names to college rosters, signing let-
ters of intent with Oregon schools.
Parker Greenawald (fourth place at state,
145 pounds), will wrestle at Southwestern
Oregon Community College in Coos Bay;
and teammate Alex Tapia (second place at
state, 170) signed with Linfi eld University
in McMinnville.
Meanwhile, former Warrior baseball
player Jake Morrow, who recently com-
pleted his freshman season at Linn-Benton
and initially was headed for the University
of Washington, will suit up for the Wash-
ington State Cougars next school year.
Other signees among recently grad-
uated seniors include Astoria’s Colton
McMaster.
The multi state champion thrower for
the Fishermen track team will compete
at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New
Hampshire.
Other Class of 2022 Seaside athletes
moving on to the next level include Cash
Corder (Umpqua Community College bas-
ketball), Carson Kawasoe (Santa Clara
golf) and Ryan Smith (Mt. Hood track).

close out prep careers
While some athletes are moving on to
the next level, three recently suited up and
played their last football games as high
school athletes.
Astoria’s Trey Woodrich and Brayden
Worwood, and Knappa’s Tanner Jackson all
played for the West squad in the annual East-
West Shrine Game held Aug. 6 in Baker City.
Jackson went out with a bang, catch-
ing seven passes for 60 yards, includ-
ing an 8-yard reception for the game’s fi rst
touchdown.
The West won in overtime, 17-14, the
fi rst time in 69 years that the Shrine Game
went to an overtime period.

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.
