Pine Eagle 37, Wallowa
28: The Cougars hung with
Pine Eagle throughout the
afternoon Saturday, Jan. 29,
but the Spartans got the last
say in a 37-28 Old Oregon
League victory in Halfway.
The teams were tied after
one quarter, but a rough sec-
ond put the Cougars in a hole
as they trailed at the break,
21-14. Wallowa responded
with a good third quarter to
get back in the game. Gabe
Nobles had seven of his
team-high 11 points in the
third as the Cougars made it
a one-possession game after
three, 28-25.
But Wallowa scored just
three points in the fourth,
two on a Kellen Knifong
fi eld goal, and saw their
rally fall short.

Joseph 39, Elgin 33:
The fi nal score may have
been closer than most would
have expected, but Joseph
largely played its junior var-
sity players in a 39-33 vic-
tory over Elgin on Friday,
Jan. 28.
In all, nine players got
into the scorebook for the
Eagles. Kane Johnson led
the way with nine points,
and three players — Jesse
Larison, Matthew Hoppel
and Rhyson Collier — each
scored six points. Joseph’s
typical starting fi ve all took
the night off against an Elgin
team that starts fi ve fresh-
men and has just six players
on the roster.
It was a much closer
game as a result. Joseph led
Pilot Rock 52, Enter-
prise 50: The Enterprise
boys basketball team was
on the cusp of its fi rst Blue
Mountain Conference vic-
tory of the season.
Rylen Bronson of Pilot
Rock, though, had other
ideas.
Bronson scored 13 points
in the fourth quarter and hit
the winning 3-pointer in
the closing moments as the
Rockets pulled out a 52-50
road victory over the Out-
laws on Wednesday, Jan. 26.
The freshman guard
scored 21 points to lead all
scorers, and, with his team
down 50-49 with less than
5 seconds remaining, hit his
second 3 of the quarter to
help the Rockets escape.
The Rockets led much of
the fi rst half, and were ahead
16-12 at the break, but never
could break away from the

Outlaws. Enterprise, in fact,
heated up in the third, scor-
ing 20 points to take a 32-31
lead into the fourth and posi-
tion themselves to possibly
get off the schneid in BMC
action. Jackson Decker had
11 of his 12 points in the
fourth and hit three 3-point-
ers, but it wasn’t enough.
Spencer Decker also
scored 12 points for the
Outlaws,
while
James

Heppner 67, Enterprise
26: The BMC-leading Hep-
pner Mustangs didn’t allow
Enterprise to hang around
as they quickly broke things
open in a 67-26 rout at home.
Heppner opened up an
11-point fi rst quarter lead,
then held the Outlaws to one
second-quarter fi eld goal as
it took a 39-14 lead at the
half. By the end of three, the
lead had reached 37 points.
Jackson Decker scored
10 points in the loss, but no
other player for Enterprise
had more than four points.
