Report: Barring a miracle, Stotts is likely out as Port-
land head coach after season — The Portland Trail Blaz-
ers are expected to move on from head coach Terry Stotts
after this season, according to a new report from Shams Cha-
rania and Sam Amick of The Athletic. Unless the Blazers pull
off a playoff miracle, Portland is expected to opt for a new
head coach once the season concludes, per the report.

Continued from A5
In a game that went five ex-
tra innings, where pitching
and defense dominated, a soft
line drive off the bat of junior
Chase Terry dropped in cen-
ter field and brought home
Connor Zook for the winning
score.
The Mountain View bench
cleared to chase down the kid
who finally put an end to the
game that seemed as though it
would never end.
“I thought he was going to
catch it, and then we were go-
ing to go on to the 13th inning,”
said Terry of his walk-off hit,
the first of his high school ca-
reer. “I just wanted the game to
be done.”
Terry had a chance to deliver
the game-winning hit earlier
in the game, but did not come
through. That left his coach a
little antsy when he fell behind
by two strikes, as he did earlier,
in his final at bat.
“I was a little nervous be-
cause he had taken two straight
strikes earlier at bat,” said John-
son. “Finally with two strikes
he was finally able put one in
play and make something hap-
pen.”
As was the case in the first
meeting, both teams sent out
their top arms. Zach Reynolds
toed the rubber for Summit,

Lyons refers to the model
as 9-8-8: eight days of play-
ers practicing in helmets and
shoulder pads with no live
tackling to the ground, nine
days in just helmets and no
more than eight full-contact
days. The current proposal
would also limit full-contact
practices to no more than two
consecutive days.
“We’re trying to provide as
much flexibility within the
model as possible and not dic-
tate what days they get to do
what, and give each coach the
ability to coach how they want
to,” Lyons said. “But then also
limit the number of contacts
that we currently have from a
direct hit, head-to-head con-
tacts that you currently have in
practices.”
During live-tackling prac-
Dean Guernsey/Bulletin
Summit’s Zach Reynolds fires a pitch against Mountain View on Tuesday.
while the lefty Aaron Platner
was on the mound for the Cou-
gars.
And once again, the two aces
delivered.
Reynolds did not allow
a baserunner in the first 10
Mountain View batters he
faced. It was not until the
fourth inning that the Cougars
had a baserunner.
Joe Vaccaro’s two-out single
in the fourth inning was able
to drive home two runs for
Mountain View to tie the game
2-2.
While Mountain View was
able to get to Reynolds later in
the game, the opposite was true
for Platner.
After being a little erratic
early in the game and giving up
a home run to Luke Bents in
the fourth, the southpaw set-
tled into a groove. Johnson had
to visit the mound to try and
settle down his pitcher who
was trying to throw every pitch
by the Summit batters with lit-
tle success.
“Be around the zone and you
will get the results he wants,”
said Johnson of what he told
Platner on the mound. “He was
up in the zone, we just tried to
settle him down. The only one
who can beat him is himself.”
Platner found his zone. Af-
tices, no more than 90 minutes
of full contact will be permit-
ted under the initial proposal.
“What I’m hearing, a lot of
coaches aren’t using 90 minutes
so we may look and say, ‘Is that
75 minutes?’” Lyons said.
The study found that 48.5%
of the concussions recorded oc-
curred during August training
camp. The teams involved in
the study were Virginia Tech,
North Carolina, Wisconsin,
UCLA, Air Force and Army.
Todd Berry, executive di-
rector of the American Foot-
ball Coaches’ Association,
said there was some concern
among coaches that Army and
Air Force awould skew the
study data. The two academies
play a run-heavy, triple-option
offense that can lend itself to
more contact, he said.
Overall, though, Berry said
the study is helping guide
changes many coaches were al-
ready moving toward.
“We wanted things based on
data rather than assumptions,”
Berry said.
NCAA rules currently man-
date at least two of 25 presea-
son practices be contactless
and conducted without pads,
Berry said, but a survey found
most coaches already run
about six of those leading up to
the season.
He said going to nine pad-
less practices, essentially walk-
throughs, seems like a drastic
change to coaches.
“To us that’s kind of a giant
leap,” Berry said. “We’d rather
take a step and then measure
the results and say, ‘OK, we
ended up in a good place.’ And
take another step and keep im-
proving along those lines.”
Coaches have been mov-
ing away from high-impact
drills such as Bull in the Ring
and the Oklahoma drill, where

ter giving up the home run,
he struck out eight of the next
11 batters that he faced over
the three-inning stretch. The
emotion showed after his final
strikeout in the sixth inning
captured the intensity of the
game.
“I was trying to overthrow it
and that really messed me up.
I just focused more and threw
more strikes,” said Platner, who
finished with 13 strikeouts in
six innings and 111 pitches.
“I was happy because I didn’t
want anyone to score. It was
just building up from the other
innings.”
Not to be overlooked, the
bullpens of both teams seized
the moments as well. Moun-
tain View’s Jordan Kennedy
and Declan Corrigan allowed
one hit in six innings of relief,
while Summit’s Jake Hendricks
allowed three hits in six innings
out of the bullpen.
Rarely do high school base-
ball games go as long as Tues-
day night’s game. It was the
type of game that neither Terry
nor Platner had ever played in,
when a doubleheader counts as
one game.
“This is my first time, it was
pretty crazy,” said Platner. “Lot
of focus, everyone had to be
focused and it was just a good
game. I love these games.”

players mostly just run into
each other.
“Most of our coaches ar-
en’t doing it so I don’t know if
it’s going to move the needle
much,” Berry said. “But I get it.”
Berry said scaling back too
much on hitting in practice
could lead to players not being
properly prepared to protect
themselves in games.
“We’re fearful if we go too far
in one direction we’d have a lot
of injuries in that first game,”
Berry said. “There is a process,
a teaching progression to get
players to learn how to control
their bodies.”
The final proposal could
look different than the 9-8-8
model, but changes are likely to
be small tweaks, Lyons said.
“I think the balance is there,”
Lyons said. “Do I think there’s
enough there to teach and
work through it? I think the
answer is yes.”
