POWDER VALLEY FOOTBALL
Badgers rout Cove, advance to semifinals
BY JAYSON JACOBY

Powder Valley needed only
one play to take the lead, and
that led to a barrage of touch-
downs as the Badgers dom-
inated Cove 46-8 in a Class
1A quarterfinal football game
Friday night, Nov. 11 at North
Powder.
The Badgers will play Lost
River in a semifinal Saturday,
Nov. 19 at 4:30 p.m. at Cal-
dera High School in Bend.
Lost River, which is in Mer-
rill near Klamath Falls, beat
Adrian 44-8 in a quarterfinal
game Saturday, Nov. 12. Pow-
der Valley beat Adrian 46-14
in October.
After forcing the Leopards to
punt on the opening possession
on a chilly night that brought
snow flurries late in the game,
Powder Valley took over on the
Cove 35.
After a 5-yard penalty on
Powder, Tucker Martin took
a handoff and raced 40 yards
for a touchdown. Cole Martin
added the 2-point conversion
to give Powder Valley a quick
8-0 lead.
“That’s pretty much typical
Powder football this season, we
have pretty much come out of
the game at full speed,” Badger
head coach Josh Cobb said.
“I was really proud of our
boys.”
Cove gained a first down on
its next possession and advanced
to the Badgers 38, but Powder
got a quarterback sack on 4th
and 7 to regain possession.
The Badgers appeared to
have scored touchdowns on
each of its first two plays, when
Jackson Chandler caught a long
pass from Cole Martin, but the
first of a flurry of penalties ne-
gated the touchdown.
Powder Valley ended up
punting, but on Cove’s next
possession Colt Cobb recov-
ered a fumble at the Cove 39.
Cole Martin capped the drive
with a 2-yard touchdown run.
The 2-point conversion
failed, and Powder Valley led
14-0, still in the first quarter.

Powder Valley’s Jackson Chandler slips past Cove defender Micah Jayne during a OSAA Class 1A quarter-
final playoff game on Friday, Nov. 11, 2022. Powder Valley took the victory 46-8.
second quarter, Cole Martin
ran for a first down on a fourth
down and short, then he broke
loose, tiptoed down the left
sideline and went 65 yards for
his second touchdown.
The 2-point conversion
upped the Badgers’ lead to 22-0
with 8:49 left in the first half.
Powder scored two more
touchdowns in the final 1:45
of the first half to lead 38-0 at
halftime.
The second half was an-
ticlimactic, with a running
clock due to Powder having a
35-point lead.
Cole Martin led the Badgers
with 253 yards rushing and
three touchdowns as Powder
Valley amassed more than 300
yards on the ground.
“Our offensive line was fairly
dominant,” Cobb said.
Tucker Martin had 48 rush-
ing yards and the one touch-
down, and Chandler had 70
receiving yards on two catches,
including a touchdown.
Defensively, Tucker Martin
forced a fumble that Chandler
recovered. Cole Martin had an
interception as the Badgers sti-
fled the Leopards for most of
the game.
“Riley Martin’s defense was
per usual, he had them well
scouted and the guys did their
job,” Josh Cobb said, referring to
Powder’s defensive coordinator.
Cobb said it’s gratifying to
have the Badgers back in con-
tention for a state champion-
ship after graduating several
seniors from the 2021 squad,
which lost a heartbreaker to
Adrian in the state champion-
ship game.
“Not a lot of people thought
we would be back in the hunt,”
he said.
NORTH POWDER — Af-
ter wrapping up the volleyball
season as the 1A Old Oregon
League champions, four Powder
Valley players were named to
the all-league team.
After a meeting and voting of
league coaches, junior Lacy An-
derson, senior Dallee Jo Bing-
ham, sophomore Marli Lind
and junior Jodi Bingham were
named to the listing. Lind was
one of only two sophomores
making the league listing that
included three seniors and six
juniors.
The Badgers led the honorees
with four players, while Imbler
named three players (Rachel
Stirewalt, Harvest Coston, Al-
yssa Jennings). Coaches voted
two Joseph players (Aimee My-
ers, Cooper Nave) to all-league
and a single Wallowa (Sophie
Moeller) player and a single
Cove (Lucy Mathews) joined a
single Pine Eagle player (Maggie
Stanbro) on the list.
