SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 6, 2016 Sailors from 1B “Dominic had a great night and battled in the paint,” said Crook. Wells also went 7-for-8 from the freethrow line. Hunter Simington had 8 points, 4 rebounds and 2 steals. However, taking advantage of Mapleton turnovers in the fourth period, Lowell was able to pull away and finish 61-31 for the win. Against Yoncalla, the Sailors stayed within six points for most of the game, thanks in large part to a 22-point performance from Simington, with 18 points com- ing from 3-point shooting (six total). Simington also chipped in 5 rebounds and a pair of steals. Wells had 12 boards and sank eight points to go with 4 blocks and 2 steals. “It was a great game that real- ly came down to the wire,” Crook said of the matchup. Tied at 41-41 with 2:40 remaining on the clock, turnovers played into Yoncalla’s hands down the stretch. Forced to foul for possession, the Sailors weren’t able to close the gap before falling, 50-41. Still, it was an impressive defensive performance by the Sailors. Gabe Simington grabbed 12 rebounds, scored 6 points and had 2 blocks from the post posi- tion. AJ Foster had 8 assists, 4 steals and 3 points for the Sailors. “In his second basketball game ever, AJ is becoming one of those players you can’t take off the court,” said Crook. “He’s a great defender and passer.” Yoncalla was an “Elite 8” team at state the last two seasons and a team that beat the Sailors by an average of 37 points a game. “It was great to see us battle and compete like that,” said Crook. 5 B The Lady Sailors had a tougher time with Yoncalla and Lowell, falling 54-10 to Lowell and 48-11 to Yoncalla. “We played two experienced teams Friday and Saturday, and the girls never quit,” said coach Mike Murray. “They are getting priceless experience the hard way, on the job, but it’s a deter- mined group of girls.” Last night, Mapleton hosted Reedsport (after press deadlines) in a nonleague game. This Friday’s games at Falls City have been rescheduled for Saturday, with the girls tipping off at 5:30 p.m., followed by the boys at 7 p.m. Mapleton senior Hunter Simington had 22 points against Yoncalla Saturday night, including six 3-point shots and 5 rebounds.

The Wilson has fished well for fall Chinook this season, and although things will probably start to slow down toward the end of the month, there are still some good fish coming in. Keep an eye on the weather and River conditions. All of the usual techniques, such as bobber fishing, divers and bait, and back bouncing should be effective. Although it’s still a little early, Thanksgiving is time to start thinking about winter steelhead on the lower Wilson. This basin has some early returning hatchery fish and they should start trickling in towards the end of the month. YAQUINA RIVER: Chinook The Yaquina River and bay is open for Chinook salmon. Fishing is slow. Trolling her- ring in the lower bay is an effective technique. Eggs and bobber can be productive in the upper bay and river as the season pro- gresses.

Meet Tanny Hey there I’m Tanny, I’m a sweetheart, I enjoy being with people all the time and I’m a little over 17 pounds. I love going for walks and am very well leash trained. I sleep in a crate at night, I like it I feel safe and cozy. I have had a few people interested in me, but I have some issues with my skin that have made them change their mind. My foster parents are working on my skin issues and I have an appointment to see a specialist about my skin this month. Now about my skin I don’t have any hair loss, I do break out in hives on occasion. I have had a yeast infection or a bacteria infection that has just been messing me up a little bit. With all this said the people at the shelter want to say I would need a family that has a vet in mind to keep taking care of me and I would like a fenced yard, a comfy couch, and maybe a brother or sister to play with. If you own a dog already they must come in to meet me when your application has been approved. Has it been 5 years or more since your tank was pumped? Then it’s time!
