SPORTS BRIEFING
BASEBALL
Elks game moved to 7:35 p.m. due to heat — Due to
the heatwave that has brought record-high temperatures
across the Northwest, the Bend Elks moved the start time for
Wednesday’s game against the Corvallis Knights at Vince
Genna Stadium. Originally scheduled for 6:35 p.m., the game
will be moved to 7:35 p.m., when the temperature is expected
to drop into the low 90s, the Elks organization announced.
Those who attend the game will be allowed to bring sealed
water bottles and electrolyte drinks into the stadium. The new
policy will last through Sunday. Tuesday night’s game was also
moved to 7:35 p.m. For more information, visit bendelks.com.
Skaggs’ family sues Angels, 2 employees for negli-
gence — The family of former Los Angeles Angels pitcher
Tyler Skaggs filed lawsuits Tuesday in Texas and California
charging the team and two former employees with negligence
in his drug-related death two years ago. The lawsuits — filed
by Skaggs’ parents in Texas and his wife in California —
name the Angels organization as well as former Los Angeles
communications directors Tim Mead and Eric Kay as defen-
dants. Skaggs, 27, was found dead in his suburban Dallas ho-
tel room on July 1, 2019, before the start of what was supposed
to be a four-game series against the Texas Rangers. Kay was
indicted by a federal grand jury in October on drug charges
for allegedly providing Skaggs with the drugs that caused his
overdose death. Kay was charged with drug distribution and
drug conspiracy in Skaggs’ overdose death, according to the
indictment in Fort Worth, Texas. The charges carry a max-
imum of a life sentence and 20 years in prison, respectively.
His trial is set to begin Aug. 16.
GOLF
PGA Tour to end COVID-19 testing after 50 official
events — The PGA Tour began requiring COVID-19 tests
more than a year ago when it returned to competition amid
the pandemic. It will have overseen testing at 50 official PGA
Tour events when the program ends next month. The final
PGA Tour event for testing — not including the majors —
will be the Barbasol Championship on July 15-18.
CYCLING
Cav is back! Cavendish posts 31st Tour de France stage
win — In October last year, Mark Cavendish posted an in-
significant 74th place at the Belgian classic Gent-Wevelgem.
Depressed and dejected, the sprinter from the Isle of Man
suggested in an emotional post-race interview it could well
have been his final race. On Tuesday at the Tour de France,
the tears of sadness made way for those of happiness after
the “Manx Missile” posted a 31st stage win at cycling’s big-
gest event. “Just being here is special enough. I didn’t think I
would ever get to come back to this race,” said Cavendish, the
greatest sprinter in the race’s history.
HOCKEY
Oilers’ McDavid unanimous choice as NHL MVP — Ed-
monton Oilers captain Connor McDavid ran away in the vot-
ing to win his second Hart Trophy as NHL MVP on Tuesday.
McDavid became just the second unanimous Hart selection
— joining Wayne Gretzky in 1982 — in receiving all 100 first-
place votes from members of the Professional Hockey Writers’
Association. McDavid doubled up on honors by also winning
his third Ted Lindsay Award as the league’s most outstanding
player, which is voted on by players. Vegas’ Marc-Andre Fleury
won his first Vezina Trophy as the NHL’s goalie of the year.
New York Rangers’ Adam Fox won the Jack Norris Trophy as
the NHL’s top defenseman, and Minnesota’s Kirill Kaprizov
won the Calder Memorial Trophy as rookie of the year.

“As a coach I always prided
myself on being able to roll
with the punches, deal with
adversity and to take things as
they came my way,” Johnson
said. “I had no idea how little I
knew about that until this year.
“This last year and a half
taught me to be more resilient
… taught me to plan better,
and to appreciate the things
that I hold dear to me. Because
so much of what we had was
taken away and could have all
been gone in an instant.”
All eyes were on the Gov-
ernor’s office and the offices
of the Oregon Health Author-
ity to make their decisions on
whether or not sports could be
played. The decisions from the
state offices were often viewed
as reactionary, and the OSAA
had little say in the matter.
Football, initially, could not
be played, until the decision
by the OSAA in early Feb-
ruary to move forward with
non-contact football per the
OHA guidelines was met with
backlash. It was announced
two days later that full-contact
football could be played.
Masks had to be worn
during outdoor competitions,
the state ruled. That was un-
til Summit’s Maggie Williams
collapsed at the finish line
of an 800-meter run in late
April. Within a week, the mask
rule for outdoor sports was
changed.
Even as restrictions began
to loosen and the pandemic
started to fade, the Bend High
girls basketball squad, and all
of La Pine High School, were
sent into quarantine.

— Aaron Johnson, Bend High
boys basketball coach
Ryan Brennecke/The Bulletin
Bend’s Nate Koehler (2) dribbles down court during the first quarter
against McNary at Bend High on Friday. McNary defeated Bend 59-45
in the final game of the season for the Lava Bears.
“It’s been a vicious roller
coaster that I can’t seem to get
off of,” said Bend High girls
basketball coach Allison Gard-
ner moments after finding
out her team’s already delayed
and shortened season would
be even shorter and more de-
layed.
It was a year of resilience,
when high school athletes were
told “no,” to “hold tight,” and to
simply wait.
And wait.
And wait.
“Kicking the can down the
road,” became a common
phrase used among the high
school sports circle as key start
times came and went with little
back what is rightfully theirs:
their name, their image, their
likeness. This should have been
done a long time ago. It should
have come from the NCAA
and our universities. This is
just the beginning. We must
keep working to make sure
our college athletes are treated
fairly.”
University and athletics
leadership at the University of
Oregon, Oregon State Univer-
sity, University of Portland and
Portland State University all
issued statements in support of
SB 5 following its amending to
removing a controversial pro-
vision that called for college
athletes to receive royalty pay-
ments from school’s merchan-
dising deals.
Efforts for federal NIL leg-
islation, which was the prefer-
ence of the NCAA and most
all conference commissioners
and athletic directors, stalled
in Congress in recent weeks
due to differences between the
parties as to the scope of the
changes to what teams and ath-
letes could and could not do.
Once the green light was
given, it was full-speed ahead
— but with limited practices,
overlapping seasons, non-tra-
ditional schedules and in most
cases no postseason.
Still, most athletes adapted
to the adversity.
“Our kids came out and they
played every game like it could
be their last because they never
knew when something could
be taken away,” said Moun-
tain View football coach Brian
Crum after concluding an un-
defeated season in early April.
And now, less than two
