York led Siuslaw over Brookings-Harbor Tuesday night with 10 kills, 2 aces and 5 digs. Viks from 1B additional scoring from Collins and an ace served up by fresh- man Kendall Robinson. Long went on to deliver the final kill shot for a decisive 25-10 win. Siuslaw made even quicker work of the Bruins in the sec- ond set, with Collins serving 9 consecutive points — including 2 aces — for a 14-4 lead. Six kills from junior Makenzie York in the set brought the Lady Viks a 25-7 Buying or Selling? I can help.

In the third set, Siuslaw seemed to let its guard down, falling behind by 2 points twice early in the game before clos- ing the sweep with a 25-15 win. York led the Lady Viks with 10 kills, 2 aces and 5 digs; Richards had 7 kills and 3 aces; Long had 6 kills, 1 ace and 5 digs; Mia Collins had 5 kills, 6 digs and 3 aces; Emma Collins had 3 kills and 2 aces; Macalin Mason had 2 kills. The win put Siuslaw at 4-3 in the Far West League and in a tie for third place with North Bend heading into Thursday’s match with Douglas (2-6) on Glenn Butler Court. Though the Vikings man- aged another sweep, taking the Trojans in just three sets, it was no easy feat against the scrappy Douglas line-up, which took Siuslaw to the narrowest of win margins in all three games, 25- 23, 25-23, 28-26. Unfortunately for the Lady Vikings, North Bend also had a sweep Thursday night, down- ing winless Brookings-Harbor 25-5, 25-14, 25-18 to preserve a tie with Siuslaw for third place in the Far West heading into the final week of the regu- lar season next week. It creates a dramatic show- down situation between the two teams, who will face each other Tuesday night at North Bend. The Bruins will have the advantage later in the week, when they take on fifth-place Douglas while the Lady Viks face second-place South Umpqua on the road — making a win at North Bend for Siuslaw especially important in the play-off scenario. Both games will begin at 6:30 p.m., with post-season play beginning Oct. 14. Sailors match with the Red Devils and Falcons. First up was a match with Oak Hill as the Lady Sailors zoned in on their first win of the season. Mapleton took the Falcons with relative ease in the first set, 25-12, then edged out Oak Hill in the third set, 25-18 before hammering home their first win with a definitive 25-10 victory. Mapleton then faced fourth- place Lowell (7-3), which han- dled the lady Sailors in three straight sets, 25-3, 25-8, 25-20. Next week, Mapleton will host Eddyville (2-7) on Tuesday before traveling to McKenzie (10-0) Thursday. Both matches begin at 6 p.m. Saturday, Mapleton will host Siletz Valley (8-2) at 2 p.m. and McKenzie at 6 p.m. to close out the regular season in the Mountain West League. two per day over 8-inches.

With the recent rains, there are probably a few fish sneaking in. Bobber fishing bait, back- bouncing, back-trolling plugs or divers and bait, or casting spinners can all be effective methods. Anglers are reminded the Wilson River is closed to salmon angling until Dec. 31, upstream of Jordan Creek (River Mile 21.9). Summer steelhead fishing on the Wilson has been moder- ate to slow, but there are good numbers of fish throughout the system. Late September can be a great time to target these fish as cooler nights lower water temps, and fish that have been holding get more active. Target riffles and the top of pools during first and last light, and concentrate on deep- er holding pools once the sun is on the water. Fishing stealthy, with light gear, and targeting first and last light is often the key to success with these fish. Trout season continues with some cutthroat around, but fishing for them in the Wilson’s clear summer flows can be tough. Remember, the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8 inches. YAQUINA RIVER: Chinook, trout Chinook is open and with the rain early this week fishing is starting to pick up in tide- water. Trout season opened May 22, and there should be some nice cutthroat around. Remember, the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8-inches.
