SPORTS Saturday, October 28, 2017 East Oregonian Page 3B Prep Football Mustangs roll into playoffs East Oregonian HEPPNER — The Heppner Mustangs put together their fifth consecutive victory on Friday night with a 48-6 win over Corbett at Les Payne Field. Heppner (5-3 overall) held Corbett to just 98 yards of total offense, while the Mustangs piled up 491 yards in the victory. “We came out pretty sharp and jumped up early,” Heppner coach Greg Grant said. “I think the kids have come a long way. I made us run some plays into their (Corbett’s) strength just to test us and to our credit we made it through.” The Mustangs ran the ball 53 times for 363 yards and two touch- downs, with Coby Dougherty leading the way with 181 yards on 20 carries. Beau Wolters had 54 yards and one touchdown and Jayden Wilson ran for 28 yards and a score as well. Wilson’s more impressive night came in the passing game, where the freshman completed 11-of-18 passes for 128 yards and four touchdowns. Wolters was on the receiving end of two of those and led the team with 51 yards, while Kevin Smith and Logan Burright also hauled in a touchdown recep- tion. The Mustangs led 19-0 after the first quarter and 35-0 at the break. Corbett did not score until the fourth quarter. Heppner will now await its first round playoff match-up likely to be played next Friday or Saturday. Staff photo by E.J. Harris Heppner’s Hunter Nichols races towards the finish line during the 3A/2A/1A/ special district 5 meet on Friday in Pendleton. XC: Nichols finishes fifth Continued from 1B entire race,” Hook said. “But with this thing it’s harder to breathe. Right about here with about 500 meters left, I actually felt done. I wanted to stop but then I was like, ‘I can’t.’ So, I had to finish the race. I know I wasn’t pushing my hardest but I finished and I didn’t want anyone else to pass me. I feel like I did pretty good for my first districts. I maybe could have finished a little stronger but I felt it was a good race.” The tie breaker came down to Ellyse Tingelstad and Eliza Irish, whose top-10 finishes gave the Outlaws the edge. “Our fifth and sixth runners are really picking it up this year and that’s how we beat Union this year,” Hook added. Union’s Alisa Fox earned a first place finish after clocking 19:46.3. The Union boys team always took home the individual cham- pionship with Alex Graffunder claiming the boys individual title. Graffunder was well ahead of the rest of the field, and finished the race in 15:40.9 — five seconds of a new personal best. Heppner’s Hunter Nichols finished in fifth place (17:01.3; 6) to qualify for state for the second consecutive year, and was able to keep up some very fast runners, as the second through fourth place runners finished 30 seconds a part. The entire Union boys and girls squads and the Burn boys team and Enterprise girls team qualified for state. Of the indi- vidual runners, Nichols will be joined by Burns’ Emmett Klus, and Nyssa’s Olivia Page. The state championship will be ran at Lane Community College on Nov. 4 ——— NYSSA 55, UMATILLA 6 — At Umatilla, the Vikings ended their season with their third consec- utive loss, falling to Nyssa 55-6 on Friday night. The win clinched the Eastern Oregon League title for the unbeaten Bulldogs (7-0, 5-0) Umatilla ends 2017 with a 4-5 overall record and a 1-4 mark in the Eastern Oregon League. District 1) will await its first round game next weekend. PILOT ROCK 54, ARLINGTON 24 — At Pilot Rock, the Rockets finished off their first season in 8-man football in a good way, beating Arlington 54-24 on Friday night. Pilot Rock finishes the season 3-5 overall. Arlington ends the season 5-4 overall after a three- game losing streak. VALE 65, RIVERSIDE 14 — At Vale, the Vikings handed the Riverside Pirates their sixth consecutive loss with a 65-14 game on Friday night. The Pirates’ season comes to an end at 2-6 overall and a 0-5 mark in the Eastern Oregon League. BURNS 30, IRRIGON 6 — The Irrigon Knights season came to an end Friday when they suffered at 24-point loss at the hands of Burns. The Knights (4-4 overall, 2-3 Eastern Oregon League) played tough in the first half and entered the break down only 8-6, but the Hilanders (5-4, 3-2) rallied in the second half, and their efforts were too much for Irrigon to stop. “Gosh, we played really really really good in the first half,” head coach Steve Sheller said. “(Burns) came out and had some answers for us in the third quarter and we had answers for them in the first half. They really played outstanding tonight against a team that is always in the playoffs. We’re trying to compete and this Eastern Oregon Leauge play. The kids played well and actually to their credit, we ended up 4-4 while playing a really tough schedule.” Sheller praised the efforts of quarterback Adrian Roa, who threw some really nice balls to Daniel Vera — one for a touch- down and one for a 435-yard gain — and the efforts of the defense, despite them giving up 30 points. Irrigon’s season ended with this loss, while Burns looks forward to the playoffs. WESTON-MCEWEN 22, CULVER 6 — At Culver, the Weston-McEwen TigerScots ended their season on a positive note, thumping the winless Culver Bulldogs 22-6 on Friday night. The win snapped a three-game losing streak for the TigerScots. Weston-McEwen finishes 2-5 overall and 1-2 in the Columbia Basin Conference. MONROE 55, STANFIELD 27 — At Stanfield, the Tigers finished the regular season unpleasantly, as the No. 2-ranked Monroe Dragons handed Stanfield a 55-27 loss on Friday night. The 27 points were the second- most scored in a game by the Tigers this season, but Monroe’s offense was too much for the Tigers defense. Stanfield finishes 2-5 overall and 2-1 in the Columbia Basin Conference, and will prepare for a first round playoff game next week. ECHO 70, HARPER CHARTER 14 — At Echo, the Cougars clinched a spot in the 1A state playoffs by thumping Harper Charter 70-14 in a league playoff game on Friday night. Echo (7-2 overall, 4-1 Special Tiger Woods pleads guilty to reckless driving, avoids jail PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Tiger Woods pleaded guilty Friday to reckless driving in a deal that will keep him out of jail as long as he stays out of trouble, resolving charges from an arrest last spring in which he was found passed out in his Mercedes with prescription drugs and marijuana in his system. Woods spoke only briefly during a hearing at a Palm Beach County courthouse, answering questions from a judge about his plea agreement. Prosecutors dropped a driving under the influence charge for the superstar golfer, and the judge warned him to behave. “This particular plea agree- ment has no jail time on it.

However, if you violate your probation in any significant way, I could revoke your probation and then I could sentence you to jail for 90 days with a fine of up to $500, is that understood?” Judge Sandra Bosso-Pardo said. Woods, 41, nodded. He did not make any statement during the hearing or outside the courthouse. Woods will enter a diversion program and spend a year on probation and pay a $250 fine and court costs. He has already met some of the program’s other requirements, completing 50 hours of community service at the Tiger Woods Foundation, Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aron- berg said. Aronberg didn’t say specifi- cally what Woods did with the charitable group, but said he met the terms of the deal. Woods also attended a workshop where victims of impaired drivers detail how their lives were damaged. Aronberg said most DUI offenders do not qualify for the diversion program because they have a prior record or were in an accident. About 2,500 first-time offenders have graduated from the county program since it began four years ago. “This is designed for first-time offenders, where the person made a one-time mistake and they’re going to overcome it,” Aronberg said. “Mr. Woods was treated like any other defendant in his situation.” SCOREBOARD Local slate PREP VOLLEYBALL Saturday No. 9 Heppner at No. 8 Reedsport (2A first round), Noon No. 12 Pendleton at No. 5 Sandy (5A first round), 4:30 p.m. No. 15 Echo vs. No. 2 Country Christian (1A second round), 2 p.m. No. 16 Helix vs. No. 1 North Douglas (1A second round), 2 p.m. PREP BOYS SOCCER Saturday Catlin Gabel at Riverside, 3 p.m. Milwaukie at Hermiston, 7 p.m. (5A Play-in) PREP GIRLS SOCCER Friday Irrigon at Riverside, 4 p.m. Nyssa at Umatilla, 5 p.m. Saturday La Salle at Hermiston, 5 p.m. (5A play-in) COLLEGE VOLLEYBALL Saturday EOU at Northwest Christian, 5 p.m. COLLEGE WOMEN’S SOCCER Saturday Corban at EOU, 11:30 a.m. COLLEGE MEN’S SOCCER Saturday Corban at EOU, 2 p.m. COLLEGE FOOTBALL Saturday College of Idaho at EOU, 1 p.m. Prep Scores FOOTBALL Adrian 56, Cove 8 Amity 42, Dayton 34 Barlow 53, David Douglas 22 Beaverton 28, Sunset 27 Blanchet Catholic 38, Gervais 17 Burns 30, Irrigon 6 Camas Valley 34, Triad School 16 Cascade Christian 62, Illinois Valley 0 Central 36, Corvallis 18 Central Catholic 52, Gresham 7 Churchill 63, Crater 21 Clackamas 70, Centennial 13 Clatskanie 35, Warrenton 20 Coquille/Pacific 44, Pleasant Hill 18 Crane 46, Wallowa 38 Days Creek 54, North Lake 14 Douglas 39, North Valley 14 Dufur 54, Glendale 22 Echo 70, Harper 14 Elkton 60, Chiloquin 0 Enterprise 20, Imbler 14 Falls City 60, North Douglas 0 Franklin 21, Cleveland 17 Glencoe 55, The Dalles 6 Gold Beach 48, Bandon 12 Grant 14, Madison 0 Grant Union 56, Union 0 Harrisburg 22, Glide 15 Heppner 48, Corbett 6 Hermiston 42, Pendleton 15 Hillsboro 47, Parkrose 20 Hosanna Christian 44, Powers 0 Jefferson PDX 51, Roosevelt 16 Jesuit 48, Westview 0 Kennedy 34, Regis 0 King’s Way Christian School, Wash. 28, Benson 22 Knappa 50, Gaston 0 La Pine 46, Creswell 0 Lake Oswego 35, Lakeridge 6 Lakeview 27, St. Mary’s 26 Lebanon 44, Dallas 7 Liberty 42, Aloha 21 Lincoln 28, Wilson 13 Lowell 66, Mapleton 32 Marist 49, Eagle Point 16 McKenzie 62, Mohawk 32 McMinnville 50, West Albany 43 Mitchell/Spray/Wheeler 42, South Wasco County 12 Monroe/Triangle Lake 55, Stanfield 27 Mountain View 31, Bend 28 Neah-Kah-Nie 66, Nestucca 16 North Eugene 24, Ashland 21 North Medford 45, Willamette 19 North Salem 34, Roseburg 28, OT Nyssa 55, Umatilla 6 Oakland 28, Lost River 15 Oregon City 68, Reynolds 35 Pilot Rock/Nixyaawii 54, Arlington/Con- don 24 Putnam 14, Milwaukie 7 Rainier 60, Portland Christian/Columbia Christian 0 Reedsport 45, Myrtle Point 0 Riddle 20, Crow 16 Ridgeview 27, Redmond 8 Rogue River 36, Bonanza 14 Sandy 42, St. Helens 18 Santiam 62, Central Linn 6 Santiam Christian 28, Washougal, Wash. 18 Seton Catholic, Wash. 35, Vernonia 32 Sheldon 62, Grants Pass 20 Sherman 68, Perrydale 14 Sherwood 40, Newberg 21 Silverton 47, Woodburn 14 South Albany 21, Crescent Valley 7 South Medford 56, South Eugene 12 South Salem 30, Forest Grove 7 Southridge 42, Century 41 Sprague 47, McKay 6 Summit 44, Hood River 7 Sutherlin 34, Yamhill-Carlton 16 Thurston 70, Springfield 14 Tigard 28, Tualatin 6 Toledo 88, Waldport 18 Vale 65, Riverside 14 West Linn 49, Canby 7 West Salem 57, McNary 6 Weston-McEwen 22, Culver 6 Willamina 31, Sheridan 0 Wilsonville 44, La Salle 20 Yoncalla 34, Siletz Valley 18 Class 4A(equals) Play-In(equals) Banks 40, Elmira 0 Cascade 35, North Bend 7 Estacada 30, Astoria 14 Henley 35, Junction City 6 La Grande 43, Molalla 6 South Umpqua 46, Stayton 13 Sweet Home 52, Crook County 6 Baseball MLB POSTSEASON WORLD SERIES (Best-of-7; x-if necessary) All Games Televised by Fox Houston 2, L.A.
