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.
