Hermiston’s Jazlyn Romero and
Paige Palzinski earned Mid-Colum-
bia Conference all-conference hon-
ors for track.
Romero, a junior, was named to
the first team for javelin, while Palz-
inksi, a sophomore, was an honor-
able mention pick in the shot put.
The selections were based on
regular-season times and distances.
Katherine Petsch of Kamiakin
was named the Track Athlete of the
Year, while Noelani Helm was voted
the Field Athlete of the Year.
Both Romero and Palzinski qual-
ified for the 3A state track meet in
their respective events.
Hermiston did not have any boys
selected to the team.
Walla Walla’s Jared McAlvey
(sprints/hurdles) and Patrick Utsch-
inski (shot put/discus) were named
the Athletes of the Year.
Pendleton suffered two
bad innings early on, and
it was enough to stop them
from defending their state
title.
On Friday, the Bucks let
slip seven runs in the first
two innings of a 5A quarter-
finals softball game at West
Albany on the way to a 9-3
loss to close their season.
“That’s just how it is,” said
Pendleton coach Tim Cary.
“(West Albany) is a good-hit-
ting team. We gave up a few
too many runs in those early
innings. It was too big of a
hole to climb out of.”
The Bulldogs jumped out
early with a pair of home
runs in the bottom of the first.
Mahayla Gamble’s three-run
homer on a 1-0 count got
things started, and McK-
a team and built each other
up. I couldn’t be happier for
them.”
Up next, Pendleton (16-8)
will challenge West Albany
in a 5A semifinals contest on
Tuesday. The Bulldogs are
coming off a 5-4 quarterfi-
nals victory over Churchill.

West Albany ends Pendleton’s season

enzie Kosmicki followed
with another on a full count
during the next at-bat.
Gamble threw a no-hit-
ter in the top of the second,
and Ellie Babbit sent the
Bulldogs’ second three-run
homer of the day past the
center field fence to score
Sidnee Holloway and Pres-
ley Jantzi.
Another no-hit inning for
Pendleton ensued in the top
of the third.
Haily Greening led off
the bottom of the third with
a dinger over the right field
fence to leave the Bucks
down 8-0.
“We didn’t get the bats
rolling for a few innings,”
Cary said, “but once the
fourth inning rolled around,
we put the bat to the ball.”
Kirah McGlothan got the
Bucks going in the top of
the fourth when she singled
a full count pitch to center
field. She took second base
on Kila Solomon’s ground-
out to first.
Two batters later, Maria
Lillienthal singled on a line
drive toward center field.
McGlothan scored on the
throw.
The Bulldogs chipped in
one more homer in the bot-
tom of the same inning when
Babbitt hit her second one
of the game. But the Bucks
fought back with a home run
of their own in the top of the
fifth, when Delaney Duchek
hit one on her first pitch at
bat. It would be her second of
the season.
Aspen Garton hit the final
home run of the game in the
top of the sixth, but it would
not be enough to make a
comeback.
“We had some nice high-
lights,” Cary said. “We just
didn’t hit the ball consistently
to put enough pressure on
our opponent.”
For her final game in her
debut season with the Bucks,
freshman Sauren Garton
hurled seven strikeouts and
gave up just three walks.
“She threw against a very
good team,” Cary said of
Garton. “She threw her heart
out today. She gave it all she
had.”
McGlothan, Duchek, and
Aspen Garton each went
1-for-3 at the plate with a run
scored to lead the Bucks in
offense. Gamble tallied 11
strikeouts, keeping Pendle-
ton without a base hit until
the fourth inning.
“We had a great season,”
Cary said. “The girls fought
through every game and
never quit at any point. Today
just simply didn’t work out in
our favor.”
the Bulldogs within a run.
With Samantha Atilano
on second and Cameron
on first, Noland sent a 3-1
pitch out of the park for an
8-5 lead.
“We just finally started
hitting the ball,” Hermis-
ton coach Kate Greenough
said. “The girls made
adjustments. That was the
big change there.”
The Cougars left a run-
ner stranded on third in the
seventh to finish the game.
“Holy Names has some
scrappy hitters,” Gree-
nough said. “You only have
winners from here on out.
Every team’s going to be
good.”
Noland, who drove in
four runs, also pitched a
complete game, scattering
eight hits.
Sydney Stefani and
Cameron also drove in runs
for the Bulldogs, who also
got two hits and two runs
scored from Smith.
Chloe Sexton drove in
two runs for the Cougars,
while Caitlin Manning,
Logan Luebbe and Syd-
ney Esterberg each had two
hits.

Hermiston 2
The Bulldogs’ season
came to an end with a loss
to the Panthers in the con-
solation round.
The Bullodgs scored on
a Bailee Noland fielder’s
choice in the first inning,
but the Panthers pulled
away from there, scoring
twice in the third inning
and once in the fourth and
sixth innings.
Sydney Stefani went
2-for-3 with a triple for
Hermiston, while Saman-
tha Atilano was 2-for-4 and
Daisy Maddox 2-for-3.
Bonney Lake 5,
Hermiston 0
Brooke Nelson threw a
no-hitter and struck out 19
to lead the Panthers past the
Bulldogs in the first round
of the state tournament.
It was the first state
no-hitter for Nelson, who
has signed with the Univer-
sity of Washington.
“She does a good job of
setting up batters,” Herm-
iston coach Kate Gree-
nough said of Nelson. “We
fell for some of her tricks.
She’s about as good as they
come.”
Bonney
Lake,
the
defending state champion,
scored five runs in the first
inning, but were held score-
less the rest of the game.
“We played really great
defense the rest of the
game, we just weren’t hit-
ting the ball well in that first
inning,” Greenough said.
Grace Brown and Hailee
Hagins each hit a double for
the Panthers.
Bailee Noland gave up
five runs on six hits in the
first. Janelle Almaguer
came on in relief and held
the Panthers scoreless.
“Janelle pitched awe-
some,” Greenough said.
“They didn’t get a runner
to third base for the rest of
the game.”
