“I was pleased with the
physicality of the defensive
front. I thought we tackled
well,” Smith said. “I thought
it was competitive and I was
appreciative of the eﬀ ort of
those guys ﬂ ying around.”
Sophomore Chance
Nolan and freshman Sam
Vidlak took turns at quar-
terback. Both had moments.
Nolan threw the day’s
best pass, a 25-yard laser
to Musgrave for a touch-
down on the ﬁ rst red zone
series. Vidlak, playing with
the second and third units,
completed 8-of-13 passes
for 85 yards. Though he
was sacked twice, Vidlak
showed some poise and
elusiveness, and an arm with
zip that sometimes drops
down to a sidearm motion.
“You could see how

decided not to play this year.
“For us, we weren’t sure
if we were going to have a
season until like two weeks
ago,” Preuninger said.
Among those deciding
not to play is junior Chase
Elliott, who led the team in
scoring last season. Also,
Dax Davis transferred to
Echo and Gator Goodrich
transferred to Stanﬁ eld.
comfortable he was with
some of the progressions,
managing the game with the
clock running,” Smith said
of Vidlak, who graduated
from Hidden Valley High
in December 2020. “He’s
gotten better from practice
one to 15. He’s got a great
opportunity to make a nice
jump now in the summer
because he’s been exposed
to these 15 days of prac-
tices.”
The highlight for Nolan,
who completed 3-of-6
passes for 45 yards, was the
TD pass to Musgrave. The
sophomore tight end beat a
double team to pull in the
25-yard scoring pass just
over the goal line.
“A great, great pass, and
great protection,” Musgrave
said. “I was able to get the
ball and Chance was able to
throw the ball where only I
could catch it.”
While the offense had
moments, the defense prob-
Leading the way for
Hermiston this season will
be senior Garrett Hendon,
juniors Jayden Ramirez and
Hector Ramirez, and soph-
omores Kiki Carrillo and
Rafael Vargas.
Also joining the team is
senior Riley Clark, who did
not play last season, but has
great leaping ability.
“Most of them played JV
and a little varsity,” Preun-
inger said. “This season we
are focusing on attitude and
eﬀ ort. We come into the gym
with a good attitude and give
ably won the day given the
limited reps. In ﬁ ve red zone
series, the Beaver defense
stopped the oﬀ ense twice
on downs, and forced ﬁ eld
goals on two other series.
The defense also stopped
one of the two-minute drives
on downs, and forced a ﬁ eld
goal on the other.
Five weeks of spring
practices were capped
when Hodgins got one knee
at midfield and proposed
to Lawson. The team cele-
brated as if they had landed
a bowl berth.
“A lot of dudes were
surprised,” Hodgins said.
Over ﬁ ve weeks of prac-
tice, Smith conﬁ rmed what
he thought about his team.
“We’ve got a tight-knit
group. They compete, day
in and day out. They got
after each other, but with a
mutual respect,” Smith said.
“We’ve got some great lead-
ership on this team. We were
more physical defensively.”
our best and everything else
will fall into place.”
One of the drawbacks to
the COVID regulations for
Preuninger will be the lack
of a student section.
“It would be nice to have
that school spirit in the
gym,” he said. “It will be
like a summer league game.
It will have a weird feeling
to it.”
The Bulldogs will open
their season at Hanford on
May 12, and will host Kami-
akin on Thursday, May 13.
Both games are at 7 p.m.
