As senior point guard for the Viking boys basketball team mak- ing its second consecutive state appearance, “The pressure was tremendous,” Perry said. Coached by Bob McBeth, Perry initiated a delay offense as Tillamook waited in a 2-3 zone. And waited. V IKING And waited some more as Perry stood along the perimeter and drib- bled in place in hopes of drawing the Cheesemakers out of their defensive stance. With the clock approaching the 8- minute mark, Perry took a 3-point shot at the buzzer. The shot missed and the Vikings ended the first quarter tied with Tillamook, 0-0. Though the Cheesemakers went on to win the first round of state playoffs 43-32, Perry walked away from the experience with a lesson in patience and a clear understanding of what kind of pressure comes with perform- ROOTS ing at the varsity level. In addition to having his own ties to Siuslaw basketball as a player, Perry has another shared experience with this year’s team. He’s coached most of the players before as a JV coach two years ago. “I know the potential this team has,” said Perry. “It’s a very competi- tive group that is willing to work hard to be succesful.” After taking a year off from coach- ing, Perry saw the listing for head basketball coach of Siuslaw’s See ROOTS 3B Camp spots for eclipse book in record time Some sites still available outside eclipse path Campers snapped up reservations to camp in Oregon State Parks along the path of the Aug. 21, 2017, total eclipse in about an hour starting shortly after midnight on Thursday.

She is a proper, mature, independent lady, but plays like a kitten with toys. She is 9 years old and has a bit of a sensitive stomach, so she is on a special diet. Ms. Beasley is O.K. with other cats as long as they don’t get too bossy with her. This lovely lady had to come live with us due to her owners health. She is awaiting your visit. Lassie is a very bonny lass - a Scot- tish Fold. When she fi rst came in it took her a while to get comfortable and decide she could trust us, now she give us kisses and licks our hands and likes to be petted. She was found as a stray, we think she is about 8 years old. She is a sweet girl that talks with a growl - but don’t let that fool you, that’s just her Scottish brogue.
