School varsity ski team com-
peted in its first giant slalom
race of the season, held Sat-
urday at Mt. Hood Meadows.
Due to limited snow on the
traditional GS courses, the
race was run on Gemini,
which is generally used for
slalom racing. After two
runs per racer, both HRV
varsity boys and girls line-
ups came out in first place
overall and with individual
champions. On the boys side,
Austin Keillor posted the
fastest combined time of the
day and Lucy McLean led the
girls.
Top five finishers are as
follows (times are two-run
combined):
Varsity boys: 1st overall
(Cleveland 2nd, The Dalles
3rd)
Austin Keillor, 1st, 51.48
William Lamer, 3rd, 53.16
Charlie Sutherland, 7th,
56.24

against CRC foes Pendleton
and Hermiston on the road
over the next two weeks.
Headed into the meat of the
season, coach Noteboom is
optimistic about where his
lineup is, both physically
and mentally.
“I think the boys are excit-
ed about where we’re at,” he
said. “They’ve bought into
the new style of play and I
think they’re enjoying bas-
ketball a lot more than they
did last year.”
The Eagles went winless
last season and finished at
the bottom of conference and
state standings. As of Tues-
day, they’re second in the
CRC, with Pendleton leading
with a 7-4 record and a No. 6
ranking.
“They’re (Pendleton) defi-
nitely the favorite,” Note-
boom said. “But there’s no
reason we can’t be second in
the league, at least. If we can
continue scoring the way we
have, rebound better and not
give up as many layups I
think we’ ll be in g reat
shape.”

out sluggish, scoring just
seven points in the first
quarter and falling behind
41-19 by halftime. On the re-
verse, Heritage was on fire
from the field and managed
an impressive 14 three-point-
ers by the end of the game.
The Eagles finished with a
solid 19-point fourth quarter,
but the effort was too late to
make much of a dent in their
deficit.
Sklyer Hunter and Dan
Kuechmann chipped in with
nine points and Andrew
Roberts scored 8 to lead the
team in scoring.
“We weren’t closing out
very well and they were,”
Noteboom said. “I think play-
ing back-to-back like that
hinders us a bit too.”
After a home game this
Friday against Stevenson (7
p.m. Vannet Court), the Ea-
gles will put their turned-
around tactics to the test

SCOTTIE ZIEGNER drives to the hoop for two of 11 points Satur-
day vs. Heritage. The senior center and team leading scorer had 17
points the night before in HRV’s 69-61 win over Woodburn. After a
home game Friday night (7 p.m. vs. Stevenson), the Eagles go on
the road to Pendleton and Hermiston to open their CRC schedule.
all in team standings behind
Summit and Bend, reflecting
a move up one place from the
first OHSNO race of the sea-
son. Summits’ Olivia Moeh
was first with a time of
14:00.9. Freshman Valerie
Fischer placed fourth with a
time of 14:26.9, following two
more Summit racers.
Bend and Summit racers
filled in the next spots until
sophomore Daisy Dolan of
HRV came in tenth place
with a time of 15:32.6. Junior
Denali Emmons was hot on
her heels at 11th place with a
time of 15:35.6 and junior
Lauren Robinson was 17th
with a time of 16:36.6. Se-
nior Terri Hewitt had a
strong showing at 23rd and
freshman Hannah Hill was
29th. Both boys and girls
races had 68 competitors,
which was a smaller field
than normal.
Next up for the Eagles is a
skate style race at Mt. Bach-
elor on Jan. 24. This is the
first ever combined race be-
tween the OHSNO league
and OISRA league and it will
be the biggest high school
Nordic event ever held in the
state of Oregon. The Eagles
look forward to testing their
mettle against a larger field
of Nordic racers.
