Joseph High School’s var-
sity volleyball team came
away from the Old Oregon
League District Tournament
with a win and loss, good
enough for second-place.
The 22-8 Lady Eagles will
face Echo 6 p.m. Wednesday
on their home court in the
opening round of state play-
offs in Division 1A.
Joseph took an easy win in
the opening round of the tour-
nament at La Grande High
School, defeating Imbler
25-12, 9-25 and 12-25.
Sabrina Albee carried the
bulk of the water in that game,
with 16 kills, five assists and
four digs. Emma Hite added
seven kills eight assists, six
digs and a block, Camille
Crenshaw had two kills and
nine digs and Madelyn Nel-
son five kills and five digs.
Joseph faced No. 2-rated
Powder Valley in the second
game of the day. The Eagles
came away with one game out
of four in the set –– 25-19,
24-26, 25-19 and 25-15. The
team battled back from a
major deficit to win its single
match and hung close in two
of their three losses.
Hite had 11 kills, three
blocks, six assists, five digs
and a serving ace in the series,
Albee seven kills, seven
assists and eight digs. Nel-
son contributed nine kills,
three blocks and nine digs and
Crenshaw four kills and seven
digs.
Joseph also fell to Powder
Valley in the Dufur Classic in
early September. The team did
not play Echo in regular-sea-
son competition. Echo has
won 12 of its last 14 matches,
including edging Dufur in the
Big Sky District Tournament
in five sets Saturday.
Joseph is ranked No. 7
in 1A volleyball behind St.
Paul, Powder Valley, Hosanna
Christian, North Douglas,
Perrydale and Days Creek.
Echo is ranked No. 15.
Hite and Albee were
named first team all-league
players Saturday, Crenshaw
was second team all-league
and Nelson received honor-
able mention.

Fighting the
OPIOID CRISIS
GREG IS LEADING A BIPARTISAN EFFORT TO COMBAT OUR OPIOID CRISIS.
The bills that he helped pass give law enforcement more tools to fight this
epidemic and provide our local communities with resources to help design
and implement better treatment and recovery programs.
Greg took the input he collected at home -- from discussions with local law
enforcement officials, physicians, parents, recovering addicts, and treatment
providers -- and put it to work in Washington. Using their experience and
ideas, he helped write and pass the most significant effort by Congress
against any drug crisis in history.
“Walden helped craft & advance nearly
60 opioid-related bills”

Why is that?
Was the public welcome when the

thousands to lawyers for the
settlement against Wallowa County.
