Madras girls drop opener
As I See's Urn
by Sid Miller
When the Madras White Buffalo
girKopcncd up their 1990-91 bas
ketball season, it was on the road,
as they traveled to Crook County
on December I, where they met a
fired up Crook County squad and
dropped the game 65-50. The Crook
County girls just out-shot the Buff
girls and had the hustle for that
day.
kelly Kronburgcr had the hot
hand scoring several three-point
shots and ended the game with 26
points. At times it looked like the
Buff girls had lead shoes on and
couldnt move the way they are
capable of doing. A team that is
usually first down the floor on fast
breaks were left in the dust by the
scrappy Crook County Cowgirls.
The Cowgirl press put some pres
sure on the ball handlers and caused
several turnovers resulting in some
easy baskets for the host team. It
was just a day for the Cowgirls who
were all fired up and came ready to
play ball.
For the White Buffalo girls it
was senior Carol Miller who had
quite a game and was one of the top
rcbounders for the Buffs. She scored
10 points to share top scoring
honors with senior Becky Soliz
who also had 10 points at game's
end. The next game for the Buffs is
at Redmond.

ble figures as Laura Sahme and

6; Kris King, 4; Heather Clowers,
4; Luann Foltz, 2; Talya Scott, 2

The Buffs went right to work
out-scoring White Salmon 20-8 in
the first quarter and 22-13 in the
second quarter to take a 42-2 1 half

trouble with the exception of foul

and took her share of the rebounds.
She scored 10 points. Shirley Allen
collected the only three-point basket
for the night. She played a good
game and ended up with six points
for the night. Kris King turned in a
good performance both on defense
and offense. She too ended up with

Sahme had several assists and ended

off the bench, had a basket and two
foul shots for four points. Margie
Durette added three points with a

Madras Buffaloes win Tourney
The home town fans had some
thing to cheer about this past week
end as the Madras White Buffaloes
blasted their way to victory and
came out the winners of their own
tournament December 7 and 8,
1990.
In their first game, the Buffs
jumped out to an early lead and
were never in any serious trouble
throughout the game as they handl
ed a well-balanced Henley team by
the score of 73-56 on Friday night.
They were able to contain the Hood
River Valley Eagles 67-49 for the
championship on Saturday.
Eric Peterson was outstanding
in both games, scoring 26 points
against Henley and 19 in the game
with Hood River. Scott Moses also
had two real good games scoring
17 points against Henley and 14 on
Saturday night against Hood River.
Peterson and Moses were tough on
the boards in both games.
Tony Holiday added some punch
to the team at point guard. Holiday
had no problems getting the ball
through the trap plays put on by
the defense. He scored eight points
in the Henley game and 12 against
Hood River. Ryan Boyle also con
tributed on the backboards giving
the Buffs added punch in that
department. Boyle did his share of
scoring, with 14 against Henley
and 10 against Hood River. Jeremy
Symons, the other starter, was very
effective on the defensive side and
scored two against Henley and six
against Hood River. Jake Cooc
hise came in from the bench and
was very instrumental on both
offense and defense. He scored
four points in the Friday game and
two points in the final game. Mark
Harris also rjme in from the bench
and had good games. As the season
goes along and when things are
ironed out, things could get pretty
interesting in Buffalo Country.
Coach Blinco said the team still
needs some work in certain areas.
He also mentioned that young ball
players have a certain amount of
time to play each year, like 20
games or so. Spencer Gerke and
Leif Suppah have put in some play
ing time already and, while this is
pre-season, the coach feels he should
save their playing time for league
action where they will be eligible
the rest of the season. If he had
played them during the tournament, n
that would have taken playing time
away later on. They are going to
have their days soon.
The next varsity action will be
December 15 at Grant Union and '
December 18 at Hood River.
In a four-way wrestling meet, the
Madras White Buffaloes placed

Riverside third with 23 and Shel
don 4th with 23.

team dominated the lower divisions
while the Mt. View Cougars domi

lone loss was to Mt. View by the
score of 26-39. On the other hand
the Buffs were victorious in meets
with Riverside by the score of 52
18 and they topped Sheldon by the
score of 50-1 8.
Madras wound up with five
championships and Mt. View had
seven while Riverside took the
heavy weight. Coach said, "We
were pleased with the performance
for our first outing and it gave us
an opportunity to see how effective
we ve been so far with the moves
we have been coaching. On the J V
level, we won 12 and lost 10 with
Mt. View. The other teams had
only two JVs total. We had two
first year wrestlers in our varsity
