WRESTLING:
TigerScots boys show growth in win
East Oregonian
RICHLAND, Wash. — Jimmy
Patrick scored with ¿ve seconds left
to give the Weston-McEwen boys a
61-59 win over Liberty Christian
on Monday in non-league action.
A three-pointer on the other end
rattled out for the game’s last shot.
The TigerScots (6-7) trailed
until four minutes remained in the

the Patriots (10-2) down the stretch.
A pair of free throws put them

points and seven rebounds.
Weston-McEwen was led by
Brett Speed with 22 points, and

major key to victory.
Cameron Goodwin led the
Patriots with 30 points, hitting six
three-pointers.

BOYS HOOPS: Heppner cruises past Culver to stay unbeaten in CBC
Continued from 1B
six-point lead when Coria
hit a 3-pointer two and a half
minutes into the frame at
16-10. Vale, though, roared
back.
Cody Towers had four
points and Zach Jacobs had
four, and Brock Mattos had
two as Vale pushed ahead
20-19 despite another Coria
3-pointer. Vale would go into
the locker room for halftime
up 22-21.
Umatilla did enough
offensively to build a halfway
comfortable lead, and Kaden
:ebb caught ¿re.
Down 24-23 with around
three minutes left in the third
quarter, Webb showed why
there is a cause for optimism.
He scored 12 straight points
for the Vikings capped by
a layup, and suddenly the
Umatilla was up 35-26
heading into the ¿nal period.
“I was nice to see Kaden,”
Lete said. “I wouldn’t say
Kaden’s had a rough year,
but he hasn’t lived up to
everyone’s expectations. I
think it was kind of a con¿-
dence thing. I think he’s been
pressing on himself and he’s
got high expectations as we
all do for him. It was nice
to see him get some shots to
drop and get up some points.”
There, Umatilla tried to
take the air out of the ball and
kill the clock, but Vale didn’t
make it easy. The visiting
Vikings cut the lead to three
when Derek Hiatt scored two
points, but Simmons scored
on the ensuing possession
pushing the lead back to ¿ve,
and it was quickly 10 when
Simmons got another basket.

Mustangs cruised past the
Culver Bulldogs to stay
unbeaten in Columbia River
Conference play on Saturday.
“We shot it well and we
were able to stick to our
offense and do what we
wanted,” said Heppner coach
Jeremy Rosenbalm.
The Mustangs (14-1, 4-0
CBC) led 39-20 at halftime
and 59-28 after three, allowing
Rosenbalm to clear the bench
and try some different lineups
with an eye on the second half

40 — At Boardman, the Bull-
dogs found their way to the
free throw line for 34 attempts
and converted 23 of those to
provide the difference in a
physical Eastern Oregon
League contest on Saturday.
Riverside (6-9, 2-1 EOL)
was just 6-8 at the charity
stripe, but coach Clair
Costello said their lack of
attempts wasn’t due to a lack
of aggression on offense.
“We only took seven
three-pointers,” he said. “We
were attacking the basket but
(Nyssa is) a very, very good
defensive team and they
didn’t foul us.”
The Pirates also had a hole
punched in their game plan
before the tip when starter
Eon Castillo sprained his
ankle in warm-ups and scored
¿ve points in a limited role.
Felipe Olvera led River-
side with 17 points and added
four steals. Daniel Rodriguez
added nine points and ¿ve
rebounds. Andres Gonzalez
paced Nyssa (8-9, 3-0) with
24 points.
Riverside’s next game is
a non-league meeting with
Mac-Hi at 7:30 p.m. today in
Boardman.
