Softball from 1B careers that afternoon. Among those recog- nized before the opening game were seniors Lupita Figueroa ad her parents Jorge Figueroa and Belen Rivas; Angela Bartlett and her sister Abigail Bartlett; Lexie Smith and her par- ents Tara and Dan Smith; Audrey Lowder and her parents Rhonda and Nathan Lowder; Hayley Meier and her parents John and Nicole Meier, along with younger siblings Emma and Lincoln; and Alyssa Richards with her Baseball from 1B flowers and a certificate of appreciation.

With Siuslaw ahead Fishing from 1B first few summer steelhead by the eginning of May. Anglers are catching a good mix of hatchery and wild fish. S I L T C O O S , TAHKENITCH LAKES: Warmwater species Warmwater fishing is starting to get going on Siltcoos and Tahkenitch lakes. The recent warm weather is warming up the water and getting the warmwater fish more active. These fish will start heading into the shallows for the spring spawn creat- ing good fishing opportu- nities. SIUSLAW RIVER: Winter steelhead Winter steelhead fishing closed on the Siuslaw and Lake Creek on March 31 for the remainder of the season. Trout fishing in streams will reopen May 22. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook A few winter steelhead are still available, along with the occasional early summer steelhead. No reports of any spring Chinook yet. Trout fishing in streams will reopen May 22. YAQUINA RIVER: Winter steelhead Trout fishing in streams will reopen May 22. TENMILE LAKES: Trout, warmwater species, largemouth bass The Tenmile Lakes water levels are dropping and temperatures rising with sunny spring weath- er. This should improve the fishing conditions for bass and other warmwater fish in the coming weeks. Anglers use small jigs or a worm on a hook fished near the bottom to catch yellow perch this time of year. The Tenmile Lakes “Given our last three meets and the number of PRs, I’d see this team paced itself very well.” That would be especially true for Neece, who landed PRs in both the 100 meters (11.64) and long jump (20- 01), winning both events for district titles. Neece also won the tri- ple jump with a mark of 40-10 and qualified for state in the javelin with a second-place throw of 150- 07.5. Sophomore Phillip Burnett placed sixth in the 110-meter hurdles with a PR time of 19.94 for the team's second-best place- ment. In the shot put, junior Nathan Roane threw a PR mark at 32-06.25 to lace 21st. Freshman Joseph Shepard landed 12th with a PR leap of 32-07 in the triple jump. For the girls, junior Trinity Holmes placed third in the 400 meters after setting a PR time of 1:11.30. Holmes was also fifth in the 800 meters (2:54.24). Freshman Opal Burruss had a pair of fourth-place finishes, first in the 1,500 meters (6:19.45) and then in the 3,000 meters (13.23.85). In the 100-meter hur- dles, sophomore Emily Stevens finished sixth in 19.45. Neece will be the only Mapleton representative at this weekend's meet in Monmouth. The final schedule of events will be determined today and available online at www.athletic.net/Track AndField/meet/350523/ info. parents Kevin and Susie Richards. Siuslaw also acknowl- edged the seniors playing for Marshfield, handing out yellow roses to each senior member of the Lady Pirates. Coaches Sean O’Mara also thanked the dedicated members of his team’s vol- unteer coaches Jodi O’Mara, Jamie Hunt, Ashlee Cole, Kim Gibson and Shari Fisher. “These coaches have had long-term, positive impact on our athletes’ lives, well beyond the game of softball,” O’Mara said. The Viks then took the field and, as O'Mara later pointed out, "The athletes really showed up. They were loose but focused, not letting the distractions of Senior Night on their home field dictate their approach on offense and defense." From the pitcher's circle, junior Nina Aaron threw two complete games and was 4-for-4 in the opener en route to a 7-6, 4-3 sweep of the Pirates. Meier went 3-for-4, Figueroa was 2-for-4 with an RBI and Smith had 2 RBIs. The Lady Viks rallied in the bottom of the seventh for two runs to secure the win, then won the night- cap with batting from freshman Bailey Overton, who stole two bases and scored run in the 4-3 victo- ry. The sweep of the Pirates moved Siuslaw into fourth place to finish the season, dropping Marshfield into fifth. "We peaked late in the season with four wins in our last five games," said O'Mara. "The athletes should be proud of their continued effort through- out the season on offense, defense and in mental toughness." 5-0, the Pirates were able to go on a 5-run series in the fifth inning, all unearned, to tie the game at 5-5. Siuslaw came back to score in the bottom of the inning to take a 1-run lead as junior Caleb Hennessee took over the mound in relief. The Pirates scuttled the Viks lead, scoring 2 runs in the sixth and 7 runs in the seventh for a 12-6 win. Hennessee was 2-for-4 at the plate with 2 RBIs and a pair of stolen bases. Junior Dalton Stinger had an RBI and 2 runs scored. Junior Jared Northrop scored twice for Siuslaw. "Offensively, we did well early. But when they made a pitching change, we struggled to adjust," said Shinn. "Unfortunately, our errors came at very untimely times and led to our pitchers throwing more pitches to get out of innings." In game two, Marshfield scored 8 runs in the sec- ond inning, along with 5 more in the sixth, to secure a 14-0 shutout. were stocked with legal rainbow in mid April. Tenmile Lakes provide some nice holdover trout this time of year, and some can measure over 17-inch- es long. Troll slow with a wedding ring tipped with a worm to catch these larger trout.
