Prep Roundup
Outlaws top
TigerScots by
27-17 score
East Oregonian
ATHENA — The Enterprise
Outlaws and Weston-McEwen Tiger-
Scots met up on the softball diamond
on Wednesday, but instead a football
game broke out as the Outlaws
defeated the TigerScots by a 27-17
score.
It was certainly a highlight game
for both offenses, as the Outlaws and
TigerScots combined for 44 runs,
34 total hits, 15 extra-base hits, and
drew 22 walks. The only half-inning
without any runs scored was the top of
the first, when the TigerScots held the
Outlaws scoreless.
“Both teams just hit well,” Weston-
McEwen coach Jeff Griggs said.
Tyree Burke had a big day at the
plate for the TigerScots as she went
3 for 4 with two home runs, five RBI
and three runs scored. Jordyn Lambert
went 3 for 4 with a home run of her
own in the game with five RBI. Lilyan
Duckett, Skyler Walter and Amie
Coffman each had three hits as well
for the TigerScots.

HERMISTON 18, BEND 3 (5

the Bend Lava Bears on Wednesday
afternoon.

BULLDOGS: Quick turnaround to host Lakeridge on Thursday
Continued from 1B
and escaped with a 6-5 victory.
This time, however, the Bulldogs
were on the losing end of a one-run
game falling 5-4 to Kamiakin at
Armand Larive Middle School.
Kamiakin got out to a 5-0
lead in the top of the second, but
Hermiston quickly answered to
cut its deficit to 5-4 after three
innings of play.
The Bulldogs didn’t let the
Braves (2-4) add on to their
lead thanks to the work of Wyatt
Noland, who entered the game in
the third and threw four shutout
innings of relief. Noland allowed
only one hit while striking out
five and walking three. His
performance was just one of the
positives Moore takes away from
Wednesday.
“We did a lot of good things
today,” Moore said despite the
loss. “You take a look at the
second inning, we gave up five
but it could have been a lot
worse.”
Brylee Dufloth started on the
mound for Hermiston and got
out of trouble early in the first
inning when Kamiakin’s Payton
Flynn hit a line drive to right field
for the Braves’ third out that left
two runners stranded in scoring
position.
Hermiston went 1-2-3 in the
bottom of the inning to bring the
middle of Kamiakin’s lineup to
the plate, and with it even runs
to take a lead it would never
relinquish.
The bases were loaded in the
second after two singles and a
walk. With no outs on the board,
Dufloth was in trouble and made
his first mistake of the game.

Hermiston’s Andrew James follows through after grounding out
to the second baseman to end the second inning of the Bull-
dogs’ non-league game with Kamiakin on Wednesday in Herm-
iston. James went 0-for-3 at bat Wednesday.
A pitch hit Conner Banta and
advanced all runners to give the
Braves their first score. Another
walk and another hit by pitch sent
the Braves around the bases to
take a 3-0 lead.
After Nolan Degarno hit an
RBI single to add to Kamiakin’s
lead, Hermiston had a 5-2-3
double play to help stop the
bleeding.
Before a fly out to center
field to end the inning, Flynn
hit a grounded that was bobbled
giving Degarno enough time to
score.
Despite letting five runs go,
Moore was pleased with the
Bulldogs’ efforts.
“I stress defensive situations
in practice and guess what? Fly
ball we communicate and ground
ball we get a double play and
we’re out of the inning,” he said.
It wouldn’t take long for
Hermiston to add runs of its own.
A walk with the bases loaded
in the bottom of the second finally
put the Bulldogs on the board,
and three more in the third gave
Hermiston a chance at another
comeback win.
Daniel
Gossler,
Trevor
Wagner and Dustin Maddox
all contributed — Gossler and
Maddox each with an RBI single
and Wagner with an RBI double.
“It was a team effort to come
back,” Moore said. “We did a
lot of good things, but again we
just need that one hit to break the
game open and we almost had it.”
In the sixth inning, Hermis-
ton’s Caden Schwirse stepped
up to the plate. Schwirse was
responsible for a two-run RBI
single in Saturday’s win and was
close to another with runners on
first and second. But Schwirse’s
line drive went straight to the left
fielder to end the inning.
UP NEXT
The Bulldogs will only have
a day off before returning to
the diamond for the latter half
of their four-game homestand.
Hermiston will host Lakeridge at
3 p.m. Friday.

NORVELL: Third on team in scoring DUCKS: Winners of 11 straight games,
Continued from 1B
Chippewas are winners of 10 straight
fourth straight season and a
match-up with Florida State
on Thursday in Los Angeles.
“I’m a really confident
guy and the coaching staff
and all the guys around me
put the confidence in me,”
Norvell said.
Norvell was a spectator to
history a year ago.
A 6-foot-5 shooting
guard from Chicago, he
was a top-100 recruit who
once scored 53 points and
hit 14 3-pointers in an AAU
game. But when he arrived
in Spokane, Norvell was
dealing with a lingering knee
injury and joined a roster
stacked with guard talent, so
he ended up redshirting.
Instead
of
pouting,
Norvell took the time to learn
from Williams-Goss, Jordan
Mathews, Josh Perkins and
Silas Melson. He observed
how those veteran guards
went about their business,
how they played the game
and led Gonzaga to the

Gonzaga’s Zach Norvell Jr. (23) shoots as Ohio State’s

game in the NCAA men’s college basketball tourna-
ment Saturday in Boise, Idaho.
national title game.
“Sitting last year was
big,” Norvell said. “Behind
great guards, I learned a lot
from those guys.”
Norvell had to use those
lessons as a backup to start
the 2017-18 season, playing
behind Corey Kispert. When
Kispert injured his ankle in
November, Norvell slid into
the starting lineup and shined,
finishing third in scoring
on a team full of scoring
options while becoming the
emotional leader and spark
for the Bulldogs.
“He’s got a winning
spirit about him,” Few said.
“He has an effervescence
and charisma. He not only
provides that stuff on the
floor, but off the floor is very
important.”
the type of player that doesn’t
come along real often in a
coaching career. I’m sure
coach Kelly Graves would
agree with that. She does
things that you can’t teach,
and that’s what makes her so
special.
“She’s a finalist for
national player of the year
and she’s only a sophomore.
That speaks to all the respect
all of us coaches have for
her and her abilities.”
Ionescu scored 36 points
during Oregon’s victory
over Stanford in the Pac-12
tournament championship
game and averaged 24.0
points, 10.0 assists and 8.5
rebounds during the first
two rounds of the NCAA
Tournament.
Central Michigan has
won 10 consecutive games
since a loss to regular-season
MAC champion Buffalo
on Feb. 14. The Chippewas
avenged that defeat with a
96-91 victory over the Bulls,
who are also headed to the
Sweet 16 after upsetting
Florida State, in the confer-
ence tournament title game.
Oregon has won 11
consecutive games dating to
its Feb. 4 loss to Stanford,
including a 77-57 victory
over the Cardinal in the
Pac-12 Tournament final.
The Ducks are 9-4 against
ranked teams, including two
wins over Texas A&M, the
fourth seed in the Spokane
Regional.
The Aggies will play
top-seeded Notre Dame
in the other semifinal on
Saturday at Spokane Arena.
“All I know is we’ve
won two and we have a
chance to win a third,”
Graves said of his team’s
road to Columbus. “I think
we’re a talented team and
we’re really starting to play
together.”
A year ago, Graves’ team
played the role of Cinderella,
advancing to the regional
finals as a No. 10 seed.
After beating No. 15
Seattle and No. 10 Minne-
sota by an average margin
of 35.5 points, Oregon will
try to end the fairy tale for
Central Michigan, another
double-digit seed.
“When the game starts,
it’s just basketball,” Ionescu
said when asked if going to
the Sweet 16 as a favorite
feels different than it did a
year ago. “No one thought
we were going to win any
games, and I know we didn’t
pay attention to that much,
but it’s different. This time
we are going to take it one
game at a time, just as we
did as a 10 seed last year.
“No matter what seed
we are, we are going to go
out and give it our all and
hopefully continue to win.”
