B2 SPORTS East Oregonian Baseball: Continued from Page B1 before the fi rst game, it was so crazy.” She has played in all three of the Knights’ games, and is scheduled to start Saturday, May 1, when Riverside visits the Knights. Game time Luna heard the whis- pers behind her during the Knights’ fi rst game against McLoughlin — ‘Is that a girl catching?’ She walked in her fi rst at-bat, then took a pitch on the elbow. “I still have the bruise from it on my elbow,” Luna said. “Ryan said no guy wants a girl to get a hit off of them. It’s nerve-racking.” The following week in the Knights’ 13-2 win over the La Grande JV, Luna walked, fl ew out to center, singled and grounded out. In three varsity games, she has one hit, has scored three times and has an RBI. Her on-base percentage is .875. In the fi eld, she has 15 putouts and one error. She would like her hitting stats to improve to help the team. “I think I have adapted pretty well,” she said. “It’s a lot diff erent than softball.” Having Luna behind the plate allows Vera to tap into the versatility of his other players, especially if he needs one to pitch a couple of innings. “We trust her to be back there,” Vera said. “She has been really solid. That fi rst game she really struggled because she hadn’t seen the fastballs and curveballs. She is defi nitely in charge. I actually told the guys before she joined the team that it would be diff erent. We have to respect her, treat her as a teammate and treat her as family. They have done a really good job. I think they are all scared of her.” And that’s OK. “It’s nice to know they don’t treat me any diff er- ent,” Luna said. “I think they expect more of me. The coaches, knowing how I am, push me harder, and I hold myself to a higher stan- dard.” Life experiences After her first game, Luna had a couple of little girls come up and talk to her. They thought she was cool. “My heart melted,” she said. “Going out there, I didn’t do it to fascinate other people or get attention. The support I have right now is something I didn’t expect. I love to play and it challenges me. I have to work every day for my position. When they told me that — it was a heartfelt moment, for sure. You don’t realize how much you impact others.” Luna, who carries a 4.0 GPA, also plays volley- ball and basketball for the Knights. She is co-vale- dictorian of her class with Emma Mueller. She is looking at Eastern Oregon University to pursue a nursing degree, and maybe play college softball. Playing baseball this season has reinforced her notion that all things are possible if you put in the work. “I can use this later when I go to college,” she said. “Playing baseball has made me a tougher athlete. I am in a weight class now to get stronger. I have not had to push myself and fi ght for a position like this before. At the end of the night, I’m happy knowing I gave 100%. I am humbled, for sure.” ON THE SLATE Times subject to change (2), 1 p.m. SATURDAY, MAY 1 MONDAY, MAY 3 Prep baseball McLoughlin at Pilot Rock/Nixyaawii (2), 1 p.m. Umatilla at Dufur/South Wasco County (2), 11 a.m. Riverside at Irrigon (2), 1 p.m. Stanfi eld/Echo at Union/Cove (2), 11 a.m. Sherman/Arlington/Condon at Hep- pner/Ione (2), 11 a.m. Prep softball Weston-McEwen at Pilot Rock/Nixy- aawii (2), 11 a.m. Echo/Stanfi eld at Enterprise/Wallowa/ Joseph (2), noon Prep track and fi eld McLoughlin at Central Idaho Invita- tional, Lapwai, ID, 10 a.m. Arlington, Bickleton, Griswold, Hori- zon Christian, Ione, Klickitat, Mitch- ell-Spray, Monument, Wheeler at Con- don, 11 a.m. Prep girls tennis Pendleton at Redmond, 3 p.m. Prep boys golf Hermiston at MCC match, Kennewick, 10 a.m. Pendleton at Birch Creek, 11 a.m. Prep girls golf Hermiston at MCC match, Kennewick, 10 a.m. Pendleton at Wildhorse, 11 a.m. SUNDAY, MAY 2 College baseball Blue Mountain at Wenatchee Valley TUESDAY, MAY 4 Prep baseball Hermiston at Hanford, 5 p.m. Ridgeview at Pendleton, 4:30 p.m. Stanfi eld/Echo at McLoughlin, 4 p.m. Irrigon at Heppner/Ione (2), 2 p.m. Riverside at Umatilla, 4 p.m. Weston-McEwen at Joseph/Enterprise/ Wallowa/Elgin (2), 2 p.m. Prep softball Pendleton at Ridgeview, 4:30 p.m. McLoughlin at Weston-McEwen, 5 p.m. Pilot Rock/Nixyaawii at Echo/Stan- fi eld, 4 p.m. Enterprise/Wallowa/Joseph at Hep- Saturday, May 1, 2021 LOCAL STANDINGS Through games played April 29 MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL CASCADE COLLEGIATE CONFERENCE Team League Overall Corban 8-2 13-3 Oregon Tech 6-2 7-2 Southern Oregon 5-3 5-4 Bushnell 5-5 6-6 Warner Pacifi c 3-5 5-8 Eastern Oregon 3-7 7-9 Multnomah 0-6 1-22 #-Lewis-Clark State 0-0 22-2 #-Northwest 0-0 4-3 #-College of Idaho 0-0 8-9 Note: Due to COVID-19 concerns, Ever- green and Walla Walla have elected to opt out of the 2020-21 season. #-Teams that have opted out of spring conference schedule NWAC EAST DIVISION Team North Idaho Wenatchee Valley Columbia Basin Treasure Valley Walla Walla Big Bend Spokane Yakima Valley Blue Mountain League 3-0 5-1 3-1 2-2 2-2 1-2 1-4 0-2 0-3 Overall 3-0 5-1 4-1 2-2 2-2 1-3 1-4 0-2 0-3 WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL Team League Overall z-Bushnell 9-1 11-2 Eastern Oregon 8-2 14-4 Corban 4-6 7-6 Warner Pacifi c 3-5 7-8 Oregon Tech 4-4 4-4 Multnomah 0-10 0-17 #-Lewis-Clark State 0-0 14-6 #-Northwest 0-0 6-3 #-College of Idaho 0-0 4-14 Note: Due to COVID-19 concerns, Ever- green, Southern Oregon and Walla Walla have elected to opt out of the 2020-21 season. z-spring season champions #-Teams that have opted out of spring conference schedule NWAC EAST DIVISION pner/Ione, 3 p.m. Prep boys soccer Hermiston at Southridge, 7 p.m. Prep boys tennis Hermiston at Hanford, 4 p.m. Prep girls tennis Hermiston at Hanford, 4 p.m. Prep track and fi eld Weston-McEwen at McLoughlin, 3:30 p.m. Team Big Bend North Idaho Walla Walla Treasure Valley Wenatchee Valley Spokane Columbia Basin Yakima Valley Blue Mountain WEDNESDAY, MAY 5 COLLEGE BASEBALL Prep track and fi eld Pendleton at Hood River, 2 p.m. Prep boys tennis Kennewick at Hermiston, 4 p.m. Prep girls tennis Kennewick at Hermiston, 4 p.m. Pendleton at Hood River, 3 p.m. College men’s basketball Blue Mountain at Big Bend, 7:30 p.m. College women’s basketball Blue Mountain at Big Bend, 5:30 p.m. College men’s soccer North Idaho at Blue Mountain, 4:15 p.m. College women’s soccer North Idaho at Blue Mountain, 2 p.m. Overall 4-0 1-0 4-1 2-1 2-1 2-2 2-3 0-4 0-5 CASCADE COLLEGIATE CONFERENCE Team League Overall z-Lewis-Clark State 27-1 35-3 x-Oregon Tech 16-12 21-21 x-Corban 14-14 19-25 College of Idaho 11-21 19-28 Eastern Oregon 4-24 4-28 z-clinched CCC regular-season champi- onship, tournament host X-clinched playoff berth NWAC EAST DIVISION Team Spokane League 11-1 Overall 18-4 EASTERN OREGON AUCTION!
