HERMISTON
Williams’ move in works for months
Ex-Hermiston
wrestling coach
interviewed for
Spokane job in
the spring
By SAM BARBEE
East Oregonian
The departure of Herm-
iston wrestling coach Shaun
Williams to Central Valley
High School in Spokane,
Wash. seemed sudden, but
according to CV Athletic
Director Grant Walter, it was
in the works for months.
According to Walter,
Williams interviewed for
the vacant head wrestling
coach position in March
when John Owen retired.
Walter said Williams was
their top candidate after the
interviews, but a hold up with
the special education depart-
ment protracted the process.

Williams has begun teaching
special education there.

Hermiston principal Tom

Attempts
to
reach
Williams by phone have been
unsuccessful.
As a wrestling coach at
Hermiston, Williams led the
Bulldogs to three straight
team state titles since taking
over for Curt Berger in
2012. Previously, Williams
was an assistant at Central
Valley and at Moses Lake
before coming to Hermiston.
He attended North Idaho
Community College in Coeur
d’Alene before transferring
to the University of Oregon
as a student athlete. A native
of South Africa, Williams
represented his country in the
2004 Olympics in Athens.

LA GRANDE — The Eastern
Oregon University men’s soccer
team will be hosting a weekly
Monday Night Fútbol Series, head
coach Stan Rodrigues announced on
Friday afternoon.
Every Monday from 5-6:30 p.m.,
both Rodrigues and the rest of the
Mountaineer men’s soccer team
will train participants ages 6-14 in a
variety of areas, such as foot skills,
ball control, soccer knowledge, and
more. “Monday Night Fútbol is a
way to connect these talented and
well-coached former youth, now
collegiate players, in our community
and provide some skills training and
games for the kids that do not have
a way to travel or participate in a
recreational league to join in the fall,”
said Rodrigues.
The six-clinic series will begin
on Sep. 14 and will continue every

they tried to battle back but things just
kept (going wrong): false start penalties,
defensive pass interference, missed
assignments. Things didn’t go our way.”
Hunsaker took over in the fourth
quarter and engineered Hermiston’s
longest drive of the night, a 12-play
affair that ended when Tucker Salinas
had a nice ball knocked out of his hands
in the end zone on fourth down. But
Hermiston got the ball right back after
Hanford’s second fumble, and Hunsaker
found Coleman over the middle on the
ensuing play from 12 yards out.
“I think luck is where preparation
meets hard work,” Coleman said. “We
gotta get those three working together
with us. I think this was good out here.
It sucks taking a loss, but it’s hard. You
can only tell someone so much before
experience be the speaker.”
Hermiston travels to Kennewick,
Washington next week for a date with
the Kamiakin Braves at 7 p.m.
