Heppner’s Blake Wolters runs the ball on Friday in a
55-8 win over Weston-McEwen in Heppner.
ROUNDUP: La Grande
tops Mac-Hi again

developing right.”
The Knights (3-4,
0-2) will try for their first
league win against Nyssa
next Friday. Meanwhile,
Vale (4-3, 2-0) will travel
to Umatilla (1-5, 0-2).
LA GRANDE 49,
MAC-HI 13 — La
Grande topped Mac-Hi for
the second time this sea-
son, this time when they
hosted the Pioneers.
The Pioneers suffered
their first lost against La
Grande earlier in the sea-
son, when they were
defeated at home 48-0.
Mac-Hi (0-6, 0-4) is
still in search of their first
league win, and they’ll get
their last shot at one when
they host 4A No. 10 team
Ontario (3-3, 3-1) next
Friday.
GRANT UNION 50,
RIVERSIDE 0 — The
Riverside Pirates are now
0-7 for the season after
losing on the road to Grant
Union on Friday night.
“We played really
well in the first quarter,”
said Pirates coach David
Boor. “But the wheels
kind of fell off the wagon
afterwards.”
Riverside will play
their season closer next
Friday against Stanfield
(0-6, 0-2), who are also in
search of their first win.
TULSA, Okla. — Coby
Weiss made a 22-yard field
goal with 2 seconds left and
No. 23 South Florida scored
15 points in the final 7:10 to
beat Tulsa 25-24 on Friday
night.
Blake Barnett set up
the winning field goal with
a 32-yard strike to Tyre
McCants to the 5.
“The thing about him is
that he is so strong and he is
elusive,” USF coach Charlie
Strong said about the 5-foot-
11, 240-pound McCants.
When you tackle him you’d
better wrap up because he’s
going to break away.”
USF was helped on the
winning drive by a roughing-
the-passer penalty on defen-

sive end Trevis Gipson.
“I haven’t seen the play.
And I’ve got to be real care-
ful what I say,” Tulsa coach
Philip Montgomery said.
Montgomery obviously
wasn’t happy about the call.
“All I do know is that is
a tough call right there in
in that situation at that time
in the game,” Montgomery
said.
Barnett scored on 1- and
12-yard runs to pull the Bulls
(6-0, 2-0 American Athletic
Conference) within two with
2:10 to go, but was stopped
on a two-point conversion
run.
USF forced Tulsa (1-5,
0-3) into a three-and-out,
giving the Bulls the ball back
with 1:03 remaining on their
own 43 with no timeouts left.
“It was great that we were
able to pull this game out
when we have a national
audience when a lot of peo-
ple were able to see us,”
Strong said.
Weiss won the kicking
job just before the season
started.
“I told our guys, we didn’t
know who our kicker was,
but we know he is now,”
Strong said.

NLCS: Woodruff only
3rd relief pitcher to hit HR
Continued from 1B
Game 2 is Saturday at
Miller Park, with Wade
Miley pitching for the
Brewers against Hyun-Jin
Ryu.
The Dodgers did some
damage against the Brew-
ers’ bullpen. Milwau-
kee used seven pitchers,
including three score-
less innings from Hader.
Woodruff threw two per-
fect innings and got the
win.
“But for us to get a
look at these guys out of
the ’pen in a seven-game
series, I think that’s a good
thing,” manager Dave
Roberts said.
Manny Machado hom-
ered and drove in three
runs for Los Angeles.
The Dodgers commit-
ted four errors, includ-
ing two by catcher Yas-
mani Grandal, who also
had two passed balls.
NERVOUS TIME
Milwaukee manager
Craig Counsell’s pitch-
ing-by-committee strategy
continued to be a hit, at
least until the late innings.
Finally, the hard-throw-
ing Knebel restored order
by striking out Turner.
Knebel walked Joc Peder-
son with two outs before
Taylor’s long drive.
“It’s the postseason and
anything can happen, you
saw right there. It was a
good feeling for it to go
our way right there at the
end,” Knebel said.
DODGER BLUES
Kershaw was chased
before he could retire a
batter in the fourth inning.
It was another miser-
able October night for
the lefty, whose regu-
lar-season brilliance has
often disappeared in the
postseason.
UMass, rushed for 151 yards
on 25 carries. But outside
of a 66-yard touchdown run
early in the third quarter that
evened it at 10, Cronkrite
didn’t do a lot of damage.
Sharmari Brooks ran for
100 yards on 28 carries for
Tulsa. He had two 10-yard
scoring runs in the third
quarter to put the Golden
Hurricane up 24-10.
Barnett completed 17 of
39 passes for 237 yards.
Tulsa’s Seth Boomer was
6 of 21 for 71 yards.
THE TAKEAWAY
Tulsa almost won the
game due to not turning the
ball over, combined with a
strong defense. Coming into
the game, Tulsa ranked last
in FBS in turnovers and turn-
overs per game, and sixth-to-
last in turnover margin.

Hermiston’s Wyatt Noland outruns Eisenhower’s Thomas Oplinger in the
Bulldogs’ 61-42 win against the Cadets on Friday in Hermiston.
SALT LAKE CITY — Tyler
Huntley threw for two touchdowns,
ran for another and caught a 58-yard
TD pass, leading Utah past Arizona
42-10 on Friday night.
On a play that typified the game,
Huntley handed the ball to Zack
Moss, who tossed it to Britain
Covey coming the other direction.
Covey, a title-winning high school
quarterback who is now Utah’s
leading receiver, threw a perfect spi-
ral to Huntley.
Utah (4-2, 2-2 Pac-12) led 35-0
less than two minutes into the sec-
ond half.
Chase Hansen sacked Khalil Tate
by the ankle late in the first quar-
ter and the Wildcats’ QB was visi-
bly limping after that point. Jamarye
Joiner replaced Tate for two series
before giving way to Rhett Rodri-
guez, who threw for 226 yards and
a 42-yard fourth-quarter touchdown
to Cedric Peterson for Arizona (3-4,
2-2).
Huntley, who went 14 of 19 for
201 yards, lobbed a pass to Samson
Nacua for an 8-yard touchdown that
capped a 15-play, 75-yard opening
drive, marking the longest posses-
sion of the season for Utah.
In addition to 64 yards rushing,
Huntley completed his longest pass
of the season (68 yards) down the
right sideline to Demari Simpkins in
stride for the Utes’ third touchdown.
