Newspaper Page TextPage 2B SPORTS East Oregonian Tuesday, October 3, 2017 College Football Beavers still looking to play four consistent quarters By KEVIN HAMPTON Albany Democrat-Herald A bye week usually gives a team a leg up on preparing for the next game. The Oregon State football team had two weeks to game plan for No. 6 Washington, get healthy and allow Darell Garretson to get more reps as the No. 1 quarterback. On Saturday, the Beavers looked ready for the Huskies. The Beavers held UW to one score in the first half. The offense, however, never got on track and looked inept at times. The Beavers barely cracked 100 total yards going into the fourth before going on a scoring drive that added to the stats and made the final 42-7. Before that 10-play, 74-yard drive, the best possession for OSU was 30 yards on five plays that ended at the Washington 45 with a lost fumble. It was the only time the Beavers were able to get past midfield against the Huskies until the final drive. The Beavers tried to estab- lish the run, but failed to get going against the UW front. “The defensive line that we faced will probably be the best that we’ll face this whole season,” center Sumner Houston said. “They did their job and we just didn’t do ours.” Even more debilitating was the lack of an effective pass game. Garretson often dumped the ball to running backs or made short tosses to other receivers. The Beavers rarely tried to go deeper than 10 yards or so. Garretson completed two passes for 10 yards to wide- outs. He had a few dropped and the absence of starting receiver Isaiah Hodgins also limited the pass game. Coach Gary Andersen said afterward he didn’t know why Hodgins didn’t play. “We just need to make sure everybody stays 100 percent and keeps their head up no matter what happens to our offense,” linebacker Jonathan Willis said. For the second straight week, the defense showed stretches of strong play despite giving up big numbers. The Beavers sacked UW quarterback Jake Browning three times and intercepted him once. They had three pass breakups and five tackles for loss. For the first time this season, OSU was not led in tackles by a safety. Inside linebacker Manase Hungalu had 11 total stops and outside linebacker Bright Ugwoegbu had seven. That indicates the Beavers did a better job of stopping ball carriers closer to the line of scrimmage than in previous games, although of the four players tied for third with five tackles, two were cornerbacks (Isaiah Dunn and Kyle White) one a safety (David Morris) and there was another line- backer (Willis). But the defense could not hold together in the second half and letting games get away after halftime has been a theme for the Beavers this season. “It’s frustrating to come off having played a first half like that,” Hungalu said. “That’s the kind of defense that we practice. “The way that we played in that first half, we need to play like that in all four quarters.” BRIEFLY Local gymnasts place in Hillsboro competition Staff photo by Alexis Mansanarez Riverside’s Julian Elvert Jimenez goes toe-to-toe with Nyssa’s Abram Castro during Saturday’s match at Don Hendrix Memorial Field in Boardman. PIRATES: Play at Irrigon on Saturday afternoon Continued from 1B senior goalkeeper Jeremias Martinez. The Special District 4 school came to Boardman with only one substitute. Along with Peralta’s second half efforts, seniors Misael Madrigal and Luis Olvera and sophomore Ulyces Lopez all scored. But it was Peralta’s skillfulness on the field that elevated the Pirates on their home field “He’s one of the brains of the team,” assistant coach Jose Duenas said. “He gets along with everybody. Everybody plays together for each other and I think everything just worked out for him today.” Next on Riverside’s slate is a trip to Irrigon on Saturday. Nyssa hosts Umatilla on Friday. PENDLETON — Local gymnasts hit the mats in competition over the weekend, as the Eastern Oregon Gymnastics traveled to Hillsboro for a compulsory competition on Saturday. As a team, Eastern Oregon Gymnastics placed third out of sixth, and seven gymnasts placed individually as well. In Level 4, North Powder’s Felicia Murphy placed first in vault, first in floor exercise, and third in bars, beam and all-around; Pendleton’s Grace Chay placed fourth in vault and all-around, fifth in bars, seventh in floor and eighth in beam; Milton- Freewater’s Angelina Houser was fourth in bars, fifth in floor, seventh in vault and ninth in beam; and Pendleton’s Veenah Schultz placed third in beam. In Level 5, Pendleton’s Natalie White was third in beam and floor, and fourth in vault, bars and all-around; Shaelynn Silva was fifth in each event, and Alexa Large was fourth in floor, fifth in vault, bars, and beam, and ninth in all-around. Eastern Oregon’s next competition is back in Hillsboro on Saturday. Hermiston Linebacker Club meets on Thursday HERMISTON — The Hermiston Linebacker Club will hold its weekly luncheon from Noon to 1 p.m. on Thursday at Desert Lanes Bowling Alley. Those that will attend need to RSVP by calling 541-567-5215 by 3 p.m. on Wednesday so your spot can be reserved for the luncheon. Hermiston varsity football coach David Faaeteete will be on hand to preview the Bulldogs’ game against Ridgeview in Redmond as well as look back on their victory over Hood River Valley. DUCKS: Nature of Freeman’s injury still unkown Continued from 1B ington State (5-0, 2-0) this Saturday. “We’re not going to sit around and feel sorry for ourselves. Washington State, or anyone else, is not going to feel sorry for us. Next guy up, and go practice. Make sure we’re ready to play” Taggart said. Center Jake Hansen said he spoke to Herbert after the game against Cal. “I just kind of gave him a hug and said we were all here for him,” Hansen said. Herbert has thrown for 1,264 yards and nine touchdowns with two inter- ceptions this season. He’s also rushed for three scores. The injury was to Herbert’s left, non-throwing, side. Taggart would not rule out his return this season. Freeman had already run for 51 yards when he was injured, also in the opening quarter. The nature of the injury was not revealed. Freeman has rushed for 592 yards and an NCAA-leading 10 touchdowns this season. Mitchell was injured in a collision with a teammate on an early punt return. He returned to the game only to leave again. Mitchell was the Ducks’ top receiver with 18 catches for 217 yards and two touchdowns going into the game. Oregon was already missing senior receiver Charles Nelson because of a right ankle sprain. The nature of Alie’s injury was not known. If he is unable to go, the job would go to Burmeister, a freshman who enrolled early at Oregon. The Ducks also have freshman walk-on Mike Irwin on the roster at quarterback. “I do think Braxton or Taylor or whomever we put in there can go in there and run our offense,” Taggart said. SEAHAWKS: Wilson threw for 182 yards and two TDs in second half Continued from 1B 26 first-half points; the 10 against the Colts was the most this season. They have yet to score a touchdown in the first quarter and Justin Coleman’s 28-yard inter- ception return was just their second first-half touchdown of the season. Seattle has gotten away with being sleepy at the start against the Colts and 49ers. But it’s not a trend they know can continue. “It took us a while again and you can ask me all those questions why and whatever. I don’t care,” Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. The Colts played a nearly perfect first half, the only mistake being Jacoby Brissett’s pass that Coleman undercut and returned for a score. They led 15-10 at halftime and had the home crowd booing the Seahawks as they left the field. But the second half spiraled in a hurry. The Colts had just 32 total yards in the second half and a 13-second span where Seattle scored 14 points was too much for Indianapolis to overcome. “You have to just find a way to stop the bleeding,” Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. “You have to make plays. You have to answer and respond. We did it in the first half.” Here’s what else to know from the game: DETERMINED RUSS: It was a different Russell Wilson in the second half. And the play that emulated it the most was his 23-yard touchdown run on Seattle’s first drive of the half where Wilson popped up after diving for the goal line and gave an emphatic fist pump about finding the end zone. Wilson was 13 of 17 passing for 182 yards and two touch- downs in the second half, along with his TD sprint. “That’s the Russell that we like. Don’t get me wrong, he’s always cool, calm and collected. But guys want to see that passion from him,” Baldwin said. BRISSETT’S PROG- RESS: Brissett played well for the first half making his third straight start since being acquired from New England. But the Colts could get nothing established offensively in the second half. Brissett was 16 of 29 for 157 yards, one touchdown and one interception. But he was just 2 of 9 for 15 yards in the second half. “They’ve got a lot of good players, don’t get me wrong, but I think we had our plays there where we missed opportunities,” Brissett said. UNSUNG GUYS: Seattle got huge efforts from players deemed expendable by other teams. McKissic was once cut by Atlanta, but his athleticism earned him a spot in Seattle and he showed it with his TD run and a 27-yard TD catch. Coleman was acquired in a trade just before the start of the regular season and has twice this year been thrown into a major role. And Marcus Smith, who finished with 1 1/2 sacks, was a former first- round pick who was a bust with Philadelphia. It was Smith that forced Brissett to fumble and was returned by Wagner for a TD.
