games, with a nonleague
loss to eventual state cham-
pion Crane in the middle of
the run.
Nixyaawii ran into a
couple of tough teams at
state in Country Chris-
tian and Jordan Valley, but
Bronson’s play earned her
second team all-tournament
honors.
“Her basketball IQ is
so high that we worked
toget her really well,”
BadWar rior said. “She
comes from a long line of
athletic family members.
She runs everyday before
school, and shoots baskets
before school. She wants
to be great. She is a rare
breed.”
Also named to the OOL
first team for Nixyaawii
was Mersayus Hart, while
Kyella Picard was named
to the second team. Sistine
Moses was selected to the
honorable mention team.

Haguewood said Otteson
has been eager to learn, and
has picked things up quickly.
“For Pilot Rock, it’s hard
to lose a player like that,”
Haguwood said. “He might
have changed schools, but
he didn’t change his level of
commitment. There’s a diff er-
ence catching a 92-mph fast-
ball, than a 70-mph fastball.
It is not an easy thing to do.
He’s learning every day. He is
a good solid player. We have
multiple catchers at the varsity
level, and that’s a good prob-
lem to have. Andrew is a great
defensive catcher, and Jace
has strengths as well.”
The hardest part of the
learning process for Otteson
has been adjusting the speed

Sophomore Baron Moses
and junior Aaron Barkley
were first-team picks for
the Golden Eagles, who

earned a sixth-place fi nish
at the 1A state tournament.
Moses led Nixyaawii
of the pitches, and the variety
of pitches that come across the
plate.
“My swing was not very
developed coming into Pend-
leton, and my pitch recog-
nition was not that good,”
Otteson said. “They have
helped me a lot. It’s fun,
and it’s challenging. I love
competing. It is all about the
work ethic.”
In addition to playing base-
ball at Pilot Rock, Otteson
played summer ball with the
TC Warriors in the Tri-Cities
the past two years. He said he
has learned valuable lessons
from each team he has played
for.
“We got to play a lot of
challenging teams,” he said.
“It was fun. Tri-Cities is fi lled
with D-I athletes.”
As a freshman, Otteson
was a pitcher for Pilot Rock, as
well as a shortstop and catcher.

He also played linebacker.
As a freshman, he played
fullback, receiver and line-
backer.
With football season still
a few months away, Otteson
said he doesn’t know how he
will fi t into coach Erik Davis’
game plan.
“I will do whatever it takes
to help the team win,” he said.
Pendleton has had a bit of
good luck when it comes to
football players coming in
from Pilot Rock.
Otteson’s transfer comes
on the heels of Nixyaawii’s
Tyasin Burns’ departure from
Pilot Rock because the two
teams were no longer allowed
to co-opt for football.
Burns had an impressive
senior season for the Bucks.
He was named a 5A-Special
District 1 fi rst-team safety and
a second-team running back.

W h i le b a s e b a l l i s
Otteson’s favorite sport to
play, he does love a good
game of football.
He has gotten to know the
football players through their
morning workouts.
“I have loved the group
of kids,” he said. “The junior
class is a tight group. They
are friendly, funny and great
students. It’s a great group to
be a part of.”
This past fall at Pilot Rock,
Otteson was named to the
Special District 2 all-league
team as a first-team quar-
terback. He threw for 1,122
yards and 21 touchdowns, and
ran for 360 yards and three
to match up against,” Bow
said. “With his ability to
play inside out, we were able
to run diff erent sets for him,
giving him an opportunity
to either pull defenders out
or use his size to stay inside.
His ability to score in 1-on-1
situations made him a tough
guy to leave alone with just
single coverage.”
