Results for the top three in each classification are as follows: Grade School Lightweight: 1st - Ezekial Lopez - Aloha 2nd - Noah Preston - Indy 3rd - Leyton Adams - Hood River Grade School Middleweight: LAX Continued from Page A7 maining to seal the deal for the Eagles. “That was a huge momen- tum changer,” Luchsinger said of Brown’s goal. “I defi- nitely believe that broke Grant’s spirits. That’s one of the best behind-the-back goals I’ve seen in high school lacrosse.” Goals were once again by committee, with eight play- ers scoring on HRV’s roster, with Luchsinger mentioning that the well-roundedness of the Eagle offense was a huge strength because “there’s no one person (opponents) can take out of the game. The more guys involved, the bet- HRV Continued from Page A7 in the early innings, with a bunt from Walker sending him first and then advancing to second off a single from Ward, who hit a line drive to left field. Third baseman Kel- lan Duffy then stepped up to the plate and after two strikes, hit a line drive to left field that turned into a two- run double after Walker and Ward successfully reached home to put HRV up 2-0. The Eagles followed that up in the second, making Putnam pay for some poor pitching. Three HRV batters were walked by Kingsmen pitcher Alex Martin, which included an intentional walk of Duffy and a beaning of second baseman Patrick Har- 1st - Ian Preston - Indy 2nd - Dillon Lee - Metro Mat Club 3rd - Moise Lopez - Aloha Grade School Heavyweight: 1st - Trevor McCoy - Aloha 2nd - Ashton Brock - Aloha 3rd - Jack Tracey - Rick Sanders WC Middle School Lightweight: 1st - Malachi Tishendorf - Sherwood 2nd - Brendin Lee - Metro Mat Club 3rd - Logan Moore - Aloha Middle School Middleweight: 1st - Maka Yacapin - UP Vikings 2nd - Ryan Wheeler - UP Vikings 3rd - Evan Janson - UP Vikings Middle School Heavyweight: 1st - Devin Neal - UP Vikings 2nd - Romeo Montonago - UP Vikings 3rd - Caleb Fields - UP Vikings High School Lightweight: 1st - Jason Shaner - Hood River 2nd - Riley Riffe - UP Vikings 3rd - Patrick Wheeler - Unattached High School Heavy Lightweight: 1st - Baylee Tran - UP Vikings 2nd - Matthew Lee - Milwaukie 3rd - Tony Alvarez - Aloha High School Middleweight: 1st - Connor Kurtz - Centennial 2nd - Collin Swinehart - Central ter.” HRV’s goals leader was Brown, with three, followed by Barton (2) Bruce Ostler (2), Jackson Lebsack (1), El- liot Cramer (1), Cody Wheat (1), Ben Van Hoose (1), and Jackson Lebsack (1), who also had a team-high three assists. Goalie Mikey Hall made nine saves for HRV. HRV will now face the No. 7 Canby Cougars in the semi- finals on Wednesday and will be looking for revenge after Canby defeated HRV, 17-7 in last year’s Cascade Cup semi- finals. Due to graduation setup, the game will not be at the high school as it would normally be. Instead, the game will be at the boys lacrosse practice field at Westside Elementary at 5:30 p.m. MIDFIELDER Bruce Ostler attempts to evade a check during Fri- day’s game, during which he had two goals. vey — who, inexplicably, has been a favorite target of the opposing mound, getting hit by 10 pitches this season, nearly double the next clos- est total of any batter in the HRV lineup. With two outs and a chance to close out the inning, Martin threw two wild pitches within a span of just a few minutes that re- sulted in scores by Hunter and Walker. The hometown bats tallied eight hits in six innings, led by Duffy (2 for 3 at-bats, dou- ble, single) and centerfielder Dallas Buckley (2 for 3, dou- ble, single). The other six hits were the result of sin- gles by Hunter (1 for 2), Walk- er (1 for 4), Harvey (1 for 3), and Ward (1 for 3). Just because HRV has dominated so far in the play- offs, during which the team has outscored opponents 9-0 and given up five hits, does- n’t mean athletes haven’t been challenged. “We faced the conference pitcher of the year in back- to-back games,” Harjo said, referring to Dallas’ Logan Hatley of the Mid-Willamette Conference and Putnam’s Martin of the Northwest Oregon Conference. “We’ve competed so well against some of the best in the state. I’m so proud of how our guys have played. It’s been fun.” No. 7 HRV’s win set up a semifinal face-off with Co- lumbia River Conference rival Pendleton on Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. in Hood River (re- sults not available at press time). Despite entering the state tourney as a No. 14, the Buckaroos have thrived in the underdog role, defeating No. 3 Corvallis, 10-3 in the first round and No. 6 Cres- Bernie Fagan soccer camp will be coming to Hood River this summer.

Winner of that game will face the winner of Tuesday’s Sum- mit/Liberty game in the fi- nals, which will occur Satur- day at Volcanoes Stadium in Keizer. Pendleton has played HRV close on a couple of occa- sions this season, with two of the teams’ four meetings de- cided by one point, including a 9-8 HRV loss in Pendleton April 18. However, HRV took the season series 3-1 and has played extremely well at home, boasting a 12-1 record; the team’s sole blemish came from a 4-1 loss to Redmond March 31. Harjo said Mon- day morning he expected a good game. “To bor row a football ter m, it’s going to be a smash-mouth baseball game,” he said.

Hood, is closed to public use this summer season as a resident pair of bald eagles is nesting within the area. The eagle pair has nested in the same area for the last seven years and fledged twins in 2014. This year, there are two chicks currently in the nest. By implementing the area closure, the Mt. Hood National Forest intends to avoid disturb- ing the nesting eagles as disturbances can lead to the adult ea- gles abandoning the nest, leaving the eaglets exposed to ad- verse weather conditions or predation. Although no longer en- dangered under the terms of the Endangered Species Act, bald eagles are still protected by the Bald and Golden Eagle Protec- tion Act (Eagle Act) and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. The Eagle Act prohibits anyone from disturbing an eagle to a degree that interferes with normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering behav- ior. Closing the Rock Creek Day Use Picnic Area offer a buffer between the eagle nest and human activity. Individuals who vi- olate this area closure are subject to a fine of up to $5,000 or imprisonment for up to six months or both.The Rock Creek Reservoir boat ramp will remain open for boat launching. Howev- er, vehicles will not be allowed to park on the boat ramp and will need to park in the over- flow parking area located to the Photo courtesy of USFS south.
