ne[t oSSortunity to turn the

Even amidst the struggOes
of the season, the %uOOdogs
stiOO have a good chance to
make it back to the OSAA
SOayoffs, but wiOO need to
get some momentum going

Hermiston wiOO have to

Senior 1athan Hunsaker

On SaSer this game couOd
be a good oSSortunity for
the Hermiston defense to
carry some momentum over
from its Serformance against
Sandy as the Riverhawks
offense has struggOed in
recent weeks
After scoring 4 Soints
in its onOy win so far against
Mac-Hi in Week , the
Riverhawks have netted just
25 Soints combined over its

I-4 to meet a tough EagOes
(-) sTuad
This game brings some
added Sressure on both
sides, though, in terms of
Oeague standing The +erm-
iston %uOOdogs struggOed
mightiOy through ¿ ve weeks
before ¿ naOOy getting their
¿ rst win Oast week, and it’s
not known if The DaOOes wiOO
be abOe to ¿ nish the season
due to SOayer safety issues
Those factors heOS make
this what Davis caOOs a
µcruciaO’ game for his %uck-
aroos sTuad $ win over the
EagOes on )riday couOd Sut
the %uckaroos in the drivers
seat for SOayoff Sositioning
“I don’t know if this game
needs anymore Sressure,
to be honest,´ he said “I
think the coaches and I’m
hoSing the kids are starting
to grasS the rami¿ cations of
this footbaOO game as far as
continuing our season We
absoOuteOy have to beat +ood
River in order to even Oook at
going on to the ne[t OeveO´
So how can the %ucka-
roos take down the EagOes"
“It’OO be defensiveOy for
us,´ says Davis “We’re
going to have to be abOe
to estabOish our defense
because Hood River throws
a Oot of different sets at you
They throw a Oot of crossing
routes and run some misdi-
rection, and they don’t
stretch the ¿ eOd as much, but
SOay more baOO controO´
The %ucks defense has
been just as inconsistent as
the offense this season, giving
some great games against
teams Oike Ontario, /a *rande,
and $& Davis, but aOso being
outSOayed by the Oikes of
Summit and Ridgeview
Davis aOso beOieves that if
his defense can sOow down
the Hood River offense, it wiOO
give the %ucks offense a better
chance to ¿ nd a rhythm earOy
“Our offense has been
cOicking at times, but not
enough,´ said Davis “If our
defense can corraO some of
their (SOays), then I think our
offense can reaOOy take off´
%oth units wiOO get a big
boost this week, though, as
senior defensive end/wide
receiver Devon Roe is Srob-
abOe to SOay on )riday after
missing Oast week’s game
with a concussion
Roe’s return wiOO aOso
heOS out immenseOy as
the -2, 205-Sounder has
Sroved to be one of 3endOe-
ton’s most reOiabOe oStions
at wideout, as weOO as being
one of the Oeaders aOong the
defensive front
His return mi[ed with
the resSonse of his team Oast
week against AC Davis has
Erik Davis feeOing Sretty
good about his team
“9ery few coaches wiOO
actuaOOy say that there is
such a thing as a “good
Ooss,´ said Davis, “but I was
abOe to hoOd my head a OittOe
higher because the Oook in
our kids’ eyes showed that
they started to beOieve´
Davis and the %ucks aOso
gained some con¿ dence
in the sSeciaO teams unit,
headOined by kicker Seba-
]tian Corona who driOOed a
schooO-record 4-yard ¿ eOd
goaO in Oast week’s Ooss
“1ow we know that when
we get inside the 0-yard-Oine
we have a chance to Sut some
Soints on the board,´ said Davis,
“which is a Sretty good weaSon
in high schooO footbaOO´
Amidst aOO the Sositivity,
however, the %ucks did get
some more bad news aOong
the injury front this week
Starting offensive tackOe
Cade Anderson has been
ruOed out of )riday’s game
with a concussion, and
starting tight end/safety
Dakota McCambridge was
of¿ ciaOOy ruOed out for the
rest of the season after an
MRI showed a SartiaOOy torn
AC/ and meniscus
“Dakota wiOO be tough
because he was a senior
Oeader,´ said Davis “%ut
he’OO be right there on the
sideOines )riday night
heOSing us out´
