SPORTS Tuesday, October 8, 2019 East Oregonian Soccer: Braves lead by 2 at halftime Continued from Page A8 Gomez’s attempted save, but Dawgs sophomore mid- fi elder Sydney Seavert pro- tected the net. Clark sent another shot on goal in the 32nd minute, and fi nally connected with the net 2½ minutes later to put the Braves up 2-0. “Their keeper did a great job today,” Kamiakin coach Chris Erkison said of Gomez. The Braves took their 2-point lead into the locker room, and would post two more goals before the day was up. “They came out and worked really hard today,” Bulldogs junior midfi elder Jayden Ray said of Kami- akin. “Our intensity level was low. We need to look back at this game, analyze it, fi x our mistakes, and move forward.” Nearly 12 minutes would pass in the second half before freshman forward Margot Massey gave Kamiakin its third goal. Gomez recorded another save after defend- ing the net from Clark, but the Kamiakin forward wasn’t fi nished. With 4:55 left to play, Staff photo by Kathy Aney Clark sent a 25-yard kick sail- ing into Hermiston’s net for their fourth and fi nal goal of the day. Clark would try to score once more in the fi nal seconds, but Gomez got the save just before the clock ran out. “They were more orga- nized today,” Erikson said of the Bulldogs. Although Hermiston allowed two less goals than its last meeting with the Braves, they were unable to record a shot on goal for the day. “That tells you where we’re at offensively,” Guizar said. “It was the lack of com- munication that hurt us. We did play a better game, but we are still growing.” Hermiston (1-9, 1-8 MCC), the eighth-ranked team in MCC play, is on the road Tuesday. They’ll chal- lenge the No. 4-ranked Han- ford Falcons in the fi rst meet- ing of the season between the teams. Game time is at 7 p.m. Football: San Francisco remains undefeated Continued from Page A8 NFL San Francisco Cleveland 31 3 turf after leading the Soon- ers to win over Bosa and Ohio State in 2017. San Francisco forced four turnovers overall. The 49ers were coming off a bye and had two weeks to prepare, while the Browns fl ew cross country. It showed. Breida raced past the Browns front line and went untouched on his long touch- down run, waving to safety Demarious Randall as he sprinted into the end zone with the 49ers longest run of the season.

Breida and Coleman combined for 211 rushing yards as San Francisco out- gained Cleveland 275-102 on the ground. That took pressure off Garoppolo, who passed for two touchdowns and com- pleted 20 of 29 throws. Garoppolo’s 5-yard throw to Breida put the 49ers up 14-0 early in the fi rst quar- ter. He later connected on a 22-yard pass to tight end George Kittle in the third that made it 28-3. A9 ROCKETS FALL TO GU and ENTER- PRISE — The Grant Union Prospectors hosted their 11th annual Dig Pink Rally Saturday, sweeping Pilot Rock and Enterprise in John Day. Dig Pink raises awareness of breast can- cer and fundraising pro- ceeds benefit local resi- dents through the Blue Mountain Healthcare Foundation Mammogra- phy Fund. The atmosphere was festive with pink fla- mingos on the school’s front lawn and pink, red and white balloons and decorations at every corner of the foyer and gym, but when it came to the games, it was all business for the Blue Mountain Conference opponents. Grant Union swept Pilot Rock 25-20, 25-9, 25-11. The Rockets (2-15 overall, 0-6 BMC) dropped their match to Enterprise 25-18, 25-9, 25-16. BURNS 3, UMA- TILLA 0 — The Vikings still are without a win after Saturday’s Eastern Oregon League match at Burns. The No. 2-ranked Hilanders took down Umatilla 25-14, 25-12, 25-7.

Riverside lost the first match of the day to Nyssa, 25-20, 25-10, 25-12. The Eastern Ore- gon League’s top-ranked Vale Vikings then took down the Pirates 25-20, 25-12, 25-13 later in the day. Riverside (4-14, 2-4 MAC-HI 3, BAKER/ POWDER VALLEY 1 — After two straight shutouts, the Mac-Hi boys posted a Greater Oregon League win against the visiting Baker Bulldogs on Sat- urday afternoon. Junior forward Kael Castruita scored the first goal of the match in the first half before Baker responded to tie the score at 1-1. Freshman Brayan Flores broke the tie, and senior Carlos Martinez notched the final goal of the match with a corner kick. “We had some guys that were really trying, and others were not,” Mac-Hi coach Jose Gar- cia said. “When you have a team that isn’t trying equally, it makes it really difficult. Even- tually, the guys work- ing so hard make mis- takes and get tired from covering. Hopefully, we can figure this out and everyone can play at the same level.” The Pioneers (5-5- 1, 1-2 GOL) travel to Ontario on Saturday. Girls soccer BAK ER / POW DER VALLEY 1, MAC-HI 0 — One goal was all it took to keep the Pioneers down on their home field Saturday. The visiting Bull- dogs scored in the open- ing 20 minutes. Senior Jacky Hernandez had a shot on goal in the first 20 seconds of the second half, but could not con- nect with the net. Fresh- man Giselle Ruiz had four shots on goal, and Rosie Velasco three, but Baker’s defense stayed strong. “Baker has a really young team, but we just played down to their level,” McLoughlin coach Martin Martinez said. “We played well, but just could not find the back of the net.” Mac-Hi (1-6-1, 0-3) travels to Ontario on Saturday.
