SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 2019 | 3B Viks “We need to talk more. We need to be more of a team. I think, right now with those girls, they ha- ven’t been asked to lead. They’ve always just been asked to play. Now, they’re being asked to focus and push themselves to take over. They haven’t had to do that before.” One of the problems is the shifting leadership structure of the team. “We’ve been so se- nior-dominated for so long with such strong senior leadership, they know with a really young team we’re expecting those kids to come up,” Hornung explained. “We have to push them to not be afraid to speak up. Don’t be afraid to tell peo- ple what to do, to say what you see — because we’ll back you up.” from 1B season in basketball, she tore her ACL. So, she’s nursing an ACL inju- ry, which is tough. She’s only been playing since mid-August, and it’s hard to get back into playing a game again and jumping. It’s hard for her, but she’s doing well. She’s slowly getting back into it.” While the team was strong in the first set on Thursday, the second set saw trouble. “I don’t know if we came off flat, but we seemed somewhat com- placent,” Hornung said. “We just made a ton of mental errors.” They lost the set 18-25, with a lot of errors com- ing from a lack of com- munication. You dream it, build it. SHAWN we 6SHFLDOL]LQJLQƓQHKRPH FLEMING CONSTRUCTION INCORPORATED Hornung also saw serv- ing as an area that needs focus. “We missed way too many serves. Just fo- cusing on playing our game. Not making mental mistakes and not giving points away.” By the third set, Col- lins and Tupua rallied the team, establishing them- selves at the net and set- ting the tone for a 25-19 win. One of the reasons for the win was defense, which Hornung called “stacked.” “With Lindsey Long and Hayden Muller, they’re both small and quick and they can just see the court really well,” Hornung said. “The de- fense was stellar. It was hard to put balls away from us.” Long, as well as Kya Blake and Delaney Foglio, is a returning varsity play- er from last year. “All three are all playing really well and just getting used to playing varsity, getting used to having a much larger road. They’re not there to take up space, they’re expected to pro- duce. That’s been fun to see them stepping up.” And then there’s Zoe Alberty and Muller, the team’s centers. “I think Hayden will have a huge year. She was awesome last year as a freshman.” The fourth set was looking like another win with the score set at 16- 14. But then things turned south. “Desi rolled her ankle and we had to pull her out. Her first match she ever played in high school, and she got hurt. So, we had to throw in Hailee Outlaw who is our center in JV and comes up to varsity in case our center gets hurt. I said, ‘Well Hailee, I guess you’re playing middle.’ She said she hadn’t played middle in two years, but I was like, ‘Well, get used to it.’ “You can tell it rattled us.” Siuslaw lost the set, 19- 25. “In the fifth set, we mixed things around with our backrow players, said Hornung. “Lindsey Long, played front row and she did great. But, ultimate- ly, they took it to us. We tried to claw back but we couldn’t come all the way back. We had chances, but we didn’t capitalize. It’s just the way it goes.” The final score of the fifth set was a tight one: 13-15. Despite the loss, Hor- nung said there was huge potential for the team to start racking up wins in the future. “If we keep getting better and the girls keep pushing and they focus, the sky’s the limit,” Hor- nung said. “With some- one like Mia, and if the other players rally around her, with her we can take out anyone. But we’ve got to keep our heads up. We can’t let mental errors beat us, which is what happened yesterday. As long as we stay focused and play our game, I think we can at least be compet- itive with all the games in the league. “If they believe in them- selves, we can beat teams.” Fishing improves and continues to get better as the season progresses.

TENMILE LAKES: Trout, warmwater species, largemouth bass Bass fishing has been good on Tenmile Lakes. Anglers are catching most of the bass along the deep- er weedlines and sub- merged trees. Topwater lures have been catching bass in the low light peri- ods or even in the shade during the middle of the day. Yellow perch fishing continues to be decent with anglers catching yel- low perch along the edges of weedlines. Most of the fish are under 10-inches long but there are a few 12-inch plus fish being caught. Trout anglers continue to troll for trout. A few trout have been caught on bait by anglers targeting yellow perch.

The harvest of cabezon along with copper, quill- back, and China rockfish are now all closed to boat anglers. Shore anglers will still be able to harvest these rockfish species (but are encouraged to release them) and 1 cabezon a day. Anglers may also choose to fish the offshore longleader fishery outside of the 40-fathom regulato- ry line, which is open year-round. The longlead- er fishery has a daily bag limit of 10 fish made of yellowtail, widow, canary, blue, deacon, redstripe, greenstripe, silvergray, and bocaccio rockfish.
