Eagles ruin Buff's home opener The Hood River Valley Easglcs came to town and beat the Buffs 20-12. to spoil the home opener for the 1989, Buff football season. Hood River loaded with talent and rated among the top teams on the states polls, had their hands full all evening long trying to keep the Buffs under control. The Buffs came right after Hood River set ting up some tough defensive plays as the linemen put pressure on Eagle quarterback, Kerry McGon igal all evening long. It was the tough defense part of the Buffs as the Eagles were highly regarded in aerial attack. It was Buff jersey No. 4, Mike Holcomb, in the Madras backficld who kept the crowd on their toes as from time to time made some big Crook Co. For the second week and a second heart breaker as the Crook County Cowboys, pulled this one out of the fire in a tough played game by both ball clubs. After two hard played quarters, the Cowboys went into the locker room with a 14-12 half time lead. Both of the cowboys first half touchdowns came on long runs by Dunnaway, the first covering 62 yards and the kick was good, giv ing them the score of 7-0 at that point.

This will keep the defense guessing who it will be, Holcomb or Harris, to carry the ball as both backs have good cre dentials in carrying the ball and always dangerous on scoring at any time. It wasn't until the third quarter before both teams could score with Hood River hitting pay dirt first and leading 7-0. The Eagles kicked off to the Buffs when Holcomb got a hold of the ball, saw some day light and he was off to the races running 85 yards to score to put the Buffs on the socre board.
