COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL OCTOBER 25, 2017 got hit right as he was fl exing that nerve. I was out for three months after that happened,” said Sweet Home’s head coach Eric Stutzer after the game. Stutzer reported that the player was then driven to the hospital, not via the ambulance, to have the injury evaluated. After the game got back underway, it was the Huskies that came out strong. After putting pressure on the Lions, a Cottage Grove defensive clearance resulted in a Sweet Home corner kick. The ball was whipped in and after it bounced around and could not be sent away, Sweet Home’s Carlos Galvez found the ball in the crowded six-yard box and was able to send it in to tie the game up at 1-1. It was just the sixth goal the Lions have given up all season. Not content with a tie, the Lions attack was revived. In the 51st minute, the Lions capitalized on a corner kick of their own. The pass was played short to Lathan Vanwagner who sent a ball into the box that found Raum who headed the ball in for his second goal of the game to put Cottage Grove back up. In the 65th minute, the game took another turn after Cot- tage Grove goalie Zach Stewart made a leaping save that pushed the ball over the upper crossbar. On the ensuing cor- ner, Stewart went to make another save but was undercut on the way down and dislocated his knee. “I went to save the ball he undercut me, he used his hips, fl ipped over and landed on it. Dislocated it and had to pop it back in,” said Stewart. Walking with a visible limp, Stewart stayed in the game. In Stewart’s time of need, it was the defense Wendy McNeill that saved the day as Cottage Grove didn’t allow a Sweet Home shot in the fi nal 15 minutes. Age: 55 “They packed it in and gave it their all so they Years Bowling: 15 could keep the pressure off of me,” said Stewart.

Continued from B1 want to strengthen up the defense,” said Stewart on the adjustment. Two minutes later, the Lions were attacking again. After a Kyle Conley steal, he found Raum ahead just outside of the 18 yard box in an attacking position. After he dribbled around a defender, Sweet Home’s goalie came out to chal- lenge and Raum slipped it by to put Cottage Grove on the board. The Lions, looking for a second goal, continued to push but could not fi nd the back of the net. In the fi nal ten min- utes of the half, it was Conley striking a perfectly placed pass to a streaking George Cervantes inside the box that Sweet Home’s goalie stopped. The Huskies found some chances in the closing minutes of the half but a foul and offsides call stopped their progress. Just four minutes into the second half, what looked to be just a player falling down turned into a scary situation. A Sweet Home player went down in a routine play but stayed down on the turf. Play was stopped for the next 25 minutes as an ambulance came and paramedics assessed the situa- tion. “I think what happened, there is a nerve that runs right [down your leg], I’ve had that injury before, and I think he Bowler Of Th e Week 3B Warriors start playoffs PHOTO BY ZACH SILVA/COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL North Douglas hitter Arianna Helgren spikes the ball in a recent match. Number one ranked North Douglas volleyball start playoffs tonight By Zach Silva zsilva@cgsentinel.com At the start of the season, the North Douglas volleyball team was not a team to be worried about. Last year’s team that fi nished sec- ond in state graduated fi ve seniors and the team was starting from scratch. But after a dominant season that saw the Warriors go 26-6 and 12-0 in league play, the Warriors enter the playoffs ranked number one in state. “Going into this season, people didn’t have very big expectations of us,” said head coach Anne Campbell. “So the last two or three years the ex- pectations were high because the last three years we’ve had our best play- ers coming back year after year. And this year after losing all those seniors, I told them people are going to expect us to not be very good because we lost all of our seniors. So we need to sur- prise people.” While holding the number one rank- ing, the Warriors lost last weekend in the league tournament which means that despite being the top ranked team and undefeated in league play, they will fi nish second in league to Days Creek. This second place fi nish means the Warriors will not get a fi rst round bye and instead will host Lowell to- night at 6:00 p.m. Going into the playoffs, the War- riors will be depending on the expe- rience and skill of outside hitters Ari- anna Helgren and Abby Whipple. The pair of juniors both started last year in the state championship game. “We have the same intensity, same passion for the game that we had last year even more. It’s really amazing. Just playing with these girls on the court,” said Helgren.
