2B COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL May 6, 2015 T RACK AND Continued from 1B respectively. Those times also rank in the top six of 4A. “He was just awesome,” Cot- tage Grove coach Ricky Knut- son said of Tharpe. “It was a breakthrough kind of day for him, especially in the 300 hur- dles. He ran out of lane eight but really attacked it.” The 100 became part of Thar- pe’s standard work load two weeks ago, and not only has he dropped time in that event each week, Knutson believes it has contributed to his improvements in the high hurdles. The Lions, who placed sev- enth out of 16 teams, got a second-place fi nish from Tyler Ledford in the 1500 meters. Ac- cording to Knutson, the fresh- man settled into fourth place after Sisters’ Jadon Bachtold set a quick early pace. Bachtold F IELD would go on to win in 4:13.84, but Ledford, who used a strong move with 300 meters to go, lowered his PR to 4:20.31 and beat several other Sky-Em foes in the process. Connor Howard lowered his PR in the 400 meters to 52.54 and placed sixth overall. Ryan Westerkamp fi nished seventh in the shot put with a throw of 44- 03, which is the third best mark in the Sky-Em. And Jayden Tucker contributed a pair of top- eight fi nishes in the horizontal jumps; his mark of 19-10.75 in the long jump set a new PR and ranks fourth in the Sky-Em. The girls also fi nished sev- enth on Friday. Cottage Grove was once again led by throwers Conner Borigo and Courtney Hammel. Borigo placed second in the shot put with a throw of 36 feet even, and Hammel won the discus with a new PR of 108-00. In the 1500 meters, Hudson Weybright hung with the lead pack until the fi nal 200 meters but still fi nished in third place. Her time of 5:06.31 is the sec- ond fastest in the Sky-Em. Chelsey Bottorff set a new PR of 28.12 with her fi fth-place fi n- ish in the 200 meters. Bottorff and Weybright later teamed with Halle Petersen and Han- nah Albrecht to place fi fth in the 4x400 meter relay. Their time of 4:21.39 ranks 10th in the state. On Friday, Cottage Grove will host the 11th annual Wally Cio- chetti Invitational. Field events begin at 2 p.m and the fi rst run- ning event will go off at 5 p.m. photo by Matt Hollander Chelsey Bottorff, shown competing at Springfi eld on April 10, set a new PR of 28.12 in the 200 on Friday. S OFTBALL Continued from 1B victory, the tide turned when fi rst baseman Katie Lyons twisted her ankle coming across home plate for a run in the bottom of the third. The subsequent infi eld shuffl e put several Lions in foreign positions, and that inexperience proved costly. Cot- tage Grove allowed four unearned runs over the fourth and fi fth innings, and Nina Horner and Haylie Hudson had RBI singles to help Sisters cut into the lead. The Lions appeared to have lost all of their composure during the Outlaws’ rally, and up to that point they had only managed four hits. But Wiltse had no doubt that Cottage Grove would come Cottage Grove 17, Sisters 9 Sky-Em Baseball Team Sisters Sweet Home Elmira Cottage Grove Junction City Sutherlin W 9 7 6 5 2 1 L 1 3 4 5 8 9 Tuesday's Results Sutherlin 17, Junction City 2 Sisters 9, Cottage Grove 2 Sweet Home 4, Elmira 0 Friday's Results Sisters 4, Sweet Home 0 Elmira 10, Junction City 3 Cottage Grove 9, Sutherlin 3 Today's Games Junction City at Cottage Grove 4:30pm Sweet Home @ Sutherlin 4:30pm Sisters at Elmira 4:30 p.m. Thursday's Game Cottage Grove at Junction City 4:30pm Friday's Games Sutherlin at Sweet Home 4:30pm Elmira at Sisters 4:30 p.m. W 9 7 5 4 4 0 Wednesday's Results Elmira 16, Santiam Christian 3 Thursday's Results Marshfi eld 5, Elmira 0 Friday's Results Sweet Home 13, Sisters 3 Sutherlin 7, Cottage Grove 5 Elmira 12, Junction City 4 Today's Games Elmira at Sisters 4:30pm Cottage Grove at Junction City 4:30pm Sutherlin at Sweet Home 4:30pm Thursday's Results Santiam Christian at Elmira 4:30 p.m. Friday's Games Sweet Home at Sutherlin 4:30pm Sisters at Elmira 4:30pm Junction City at Cottage Grove 4:30pm Sisters at Elmira 6:30pm COTTAGE BOWL League: 5 O'Clock Shadows Date: April 26 Sky-Em Softball Team Elmira Sweet Home Junction City Sutherlin Cottage Grove Sisters up with an answer on offense. “If we didn’t bounce back, the mo- mentum was going to continue to shift in favor of Sisters,” said Wiltse. “I al- ways have confi dence that we’ll come through in those situations.” The Lions then put together their best at-bats of the evening to score fi ve runs in the fi fth inning. After Abigail Bunce and Kalea Galbreath got on base with singles, Kassidy Whisler hit a two-run single to right fi eld, and Wiltse scored another run with her fi rst triple of the game. Sisters responded with two runs in the sixth inning, including a sacrifi ce fl y by Cassidy Long-Scott.

With the bases loaded, Gal- breath hit a two-run single that ex- tended the Lions lead to 15-8. Wiltse then hit her second triple of the game to bring in two more runs. “I don’t know what got into the girls in the latter innings, but it was defi - nitely what we needed,” said Cottage Grove coach Cheryl Frieze. “They re- ally started coming around, hitting the ball, getting on base and being aggres- sive.” However, Cottage Grove was not yet out of the woods. Kylie Steiner hit an inside-the-park home run that left Sis- ters trailing 17-9 with no outs in the top of the seventh, but Sayles retired three of the next four batters to fi nish the game.

Taylor's Towing “At times the pace of the game was hectic, and we panicked a bit — es- pecially after losing two key players (Cottage Grove’s Kamryn Ortloff was injured in the fi rst game),” Wiltse said. “But we tried to stay calm and make the outs — even if it meant giving up a run because we had a bit of a cushion.” In the fi rst game, Sayles went 2-for-4 and Kassidy Whisler went 1-for-3 with an RBI for the Lions, who beat the Out- laws 5-1. Sayles threw 11 strikeouts and didn’t give up an earned run. The Lions’ postseason hopes took a major hit on Friday when they lost to Sutherlin, 7-5.
