They will be joined by Pendleton’s Jenna Senter who earned the district’s No. 4 seed to BOYS TENNIS SUNRIVER — The Hermiston boys tennis team ran into the buzzsaw that is the Summit Storm at the Special District 1 tournament over the weekend, failing to steal a state qualifying spot. The Storm ran away with the team district title, and swept all four doubles qualifiers and clinched two more spots in the singles bracket. It’s a school record 10 players that the Storm are sending to state. “Summit tennis is like the Oak Hill of basketball,” Hermiston coach Shann West said. “They’re crazy good.” As a team, Hermiston finished sixth in the seven- team district which was disappointing for West to see. The Bulldogs top finishers were in doubles where Thomas McCullough and Patrick Wicks finished fifth — one spot away from a district berth. McCullough and Wicks lost to Summit’s No. 4 doubles team 6-1, 6-2 in the quarterfinals, and then met up with teammates Jason Morris and Koby Grigg in consolation. McCullough and Wicks won 8-2 in a pro set, and then won in three sets 3-6, 6-1, 10-8 to win the losers bracket. But with two outs, James West hit a pop fly to right field. Later in Game 2, Weston- McEwen took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first when Travis Hendley scored from third on a wild pitch. The lead didn’t last long, though, as Grant Union tied it in the top of the second and then added on with three more runs in the third to hold a 4-1 lead. Weston-McEwen got a run back in its half of the third on a Hunter Sater RBI double that brought home Hendley to make it 4-2, but that was all the TigerScots could muster. Dearing and Hendley both smacked three hits to lead the team on the day, while Brett East Oregonian JOHN DAY — The Weston-McEwen TigerScots wrapped up their 2017 regular season in disappointing fashion, as Grant Union won both games of Saturday’s doubleheader 5-4 and 4-2. Trailing 5-1 in their final at-bat in Game 1, the TigerScots (10-11, 8-8) nearly pulled off a thrilling comeback. Brendan Dearing singled and Travis Hendley reached on an error, setting up an RBI double by Brett Speed, a sacrifice fly RBI by Hunter Sater and an RBI groundout by Parker Munck to cut the lead to just 5-4. Speed added two hits, an RBI and three walks and Sater had two hits and two RBI. Sater threw 6 1/3 innings in the opener and gave up five hits and four runs with four strikeouts and a walk. Only one run was earned thanks to seven TigerScot errors. The loss leaves Weston- McEwen with a fifth place finish in Special District 6. ——— Game 1 R H E W-M 000 100 3 — 4 6 5 GUHS 203 000 X — 5 9 3 (W) T. Hendley, B. Speed (4).
