LA GRANDE 64, MAC-HI
31 — At Milton-Freewater,
despite a game-high 19 points
from Luis Garcia, the Pioneers
were unable to deal with La
Grande’s pressure in the half
court as turnovers kept their
offense in neutral on Monday.
The Pioneers (6-10, 0-3 GOL)
were shut out in the first and third
quarters and only cut into the lead
when La Grande (16-2, 4-0) went
to its bench.
Mac-Hi will play four games
this week with its next on
Wednesday when it hosts Ontario
at 5 p.m.

PATS: NBA, MLB, NHL provide contenders for most dominant
Continued from 1B
nated the ‘80s.
Troy Aikman helped the
Cowboys become the first team
to win three titles in four seasons
in the 1990s — and Brady
matched him a decade later.
Starr, Bradshaw, Staubach
(they called him Captain Come-
back), Montana, Aikman.
Vince Lombardi, Noll, Tom
Landry, Bill Walsh, Jimmy
Johnson.
None of them have a claim to
the sustained excellence of Brady
and Belichick, the only duo to go
to seven Super Bowls and win five.
“He cast a wizard spell over us
that changed everything,” tackle
Nate Solder said of Belichick and
the message at halftime, when the
Patriots trailed 21-3 before going
down 28-3 in the third quarter.
Joking aside, the Patriots
probably never panicked because
they can lean on things such as
16 consecutive winning seasons
(Dallas has the record with 20)
and an NFL-best 34 playoff
games and 25 postseason wins
for Brady.
“At halftime, I would say we
weren’t down at all,” said Brady,
who won his fourth Super Bowl
MVP award by leading two
fourth-quarter touchdown drives
that included 2-point conversions
to force overtime. “We were
disappointed in the way we
played, and we knew that we
could go out and do a lot better in
the second half.”
Brady and Belichick fall short
of the nine NBA titles that Bill
Russell and Red Auerbach won
together in Boston, or the six that
Michael Jordan and Phil Jackson
celebrated in Chicago.
There will always be argu-
ments for the multiple dynasties
of the New York Yankees, who
have 27 World Series titles. Short-
stop Derek Jeter and manager
Joe Torre won four together in a
span of five seasons from 1996
to 2000, not to mention Mickey
Mantle and Casey Stengle or Lou
Gehrig and Joe McCarthy.
And don’t forget about the
Montreal Canadiens, who won
16 NHL titles in 27 seasons from
the 1950s to the 1970s.
Then again, leagues were
smaller and rosters were thinner
back then, and the conversation
was nearly about Atlanta ending
its championship drought.
“To come back and just
stall and just give Tom Brady
a glimpse of a chance to come
back, we did that,” Falcons
receiver Taylor Gabriel said.
“It’s tough to lose like that in the
Super Bowl.”
Instead, the spotlight is firmly
back on Brady, Belichick and the
Patriots, who might not even be
done — they’re already favored
to repeat in 2018.

Barkley’s 24 carries Golden
Eagles boys past Helix
East Oregonian
MISSION — It wasn’t always easy, but
the Nixyaawii Golden Eagles were able to
extend their season-best win streak to 11
games on Saturday as they took down the
Helix Grizzlies 61-34 in an Old Oregon
League battle.
Running a box-and-one defense, the
Grizzlies were able to keep the Eagles’
(14-4, 11-0 OOL) offense in check in the
first half. Freshman star Mick Schimmel
was held to just four points in the game
and the Grizzlies (4-13, 3-8) trailed by
just two points at 27-25 at halftime.
“We definitely had to adjust to their
defense,” Nixyaawii coach Shane Rivera
said.
But in the second half, the Eagles got
in a rhythm and went on to outscore Helix
34-9 in the second half. A big reason
for the success was sophomore Deven
Barkley who led all scorers with 24 points.
“He hit a couple of outside shots, but
for the most part he was able to penetrate
and get to the basket,” Rivera said of
Barkley. “We put Chandler Case at the
high post and he (Deven) exploited the
defense and did a good job given that
Schimmel wasn’t a factor.”
Case turned in a double-double
for Nixyaawii with 15 points and 10
rebounds. Justin Williams led Helix with
18 points and Grant Christman added
eight points.
Helix heads to Cove on tonight, while
Nixyaawii heads to Powder Valley on
Wednesday.

BURNS 42, RIVERSIDE 38 (OT) —
At Boardman, the Riverside Pirates were
just seconds away from an upset over
Burns, but late-game magic and too many
missed opportunities led to a Riverside
defeat 42-38 in overtime on Saturday night.
Riverside (6-13, 2-7 EOL) led 38-35
with just seconds left in regulation when
Burns attempted a 3-pointer. The shot
missed, but bounced to Burns’ Kai Dahl
who stepped behind the 3-point line and
put up a shot, one that banked into the
basket just as the buzzer sounded, sending
it to overtime.
“The kids played really, really hard
and I’m happy for how well they played,”
Riverside coach Clair Costello said. “We
just can’t score right now and had some
bad breaks.”
Eon Castillo led Riverside with 12
points and five rebounds, while Ricardo
Rosales had nine points. Zane Taylor led
Burns with 10.
Riverside next plays its season finale at
Umatilla on Friday night at 7:30 p.m.

BURNS 46, RIVERSIDE 41 — At
Boardman, the Riverside Pirates led for a
portion of the fourth quarter, but did not
have enough to hang on against the solid
Burns Hilanders with a 46-41 defeat on
Saturday.
“We played so poor (Friday) against
Irrigon and then we played so well tonight
and we should’ve had them (Burns) beat,”
Riverside coach Clair Costello said, “We
just turned it over too much and didn’t
make enough baskets when we needed it.”
Lacey Mashos led Riverside with 14
points and Alondra Caldera had 10 points.
Skylar Wightman had six points and four
assists.
Riverside next plays at Umatilla on
Friday night.

Mission, Mary Stewart drilled 10-11 shots
from 3-point range and scored 41 points
to lead the Nixyaawii Golden Eagles to a
blowout victory over the Helix Grizzlies
on Saturday night.
As a team, Nixyaawii (18-0, 11-0
OOL) shot 47 percent (27-57) from the
floor and turned the ball over just four
times as they won for the 18th straight
game. Helix (8-8, 4-6) had its two game
win streak snapped with the loss on
Saturday.
Nixyaawii next heads to Powder
Valley on Wednesday night, while Helix
will head to Cove on Tuesday.
