country runners
compete in Union
Grant Union Prospector
cross country runner Curtis
Perry earned a personal record
Saturday at the Buffalo Peaks
Golf Course in Union, and,
on the girls side, Sierra Cates
earned a season record.
The Grant Union boys team
placed fifth out of seven teams.
The second mile of the var-
sity course was an uphill climb.
“Even though the majori-
ty of the athletes did not PR,
they raced at a high level and
placed well among our district
contenders at the meet,” said
Grant Union head coach Sonna
Smith.
Max Bailey, on the middle
school team, moved up one
place in the standings.
Smith said the wind was
chilly, but once the athletes be-
gan racing they warmed up.
“This Saturday at Idlewild,
we could see snow,” she said,
adding, “We hope to have ev-
eryone healthy and peaked by
district.”
The race at Idlewild Camp-
ground hosted by Burns will
begin at 10:45 a.m. for varsity
boys, followed by the girls at
11 a.m.

Prospector
football team
overwhelms
Bulldogs in Culver
The Grant Union Prospec-
tors claimed a 52-7 win Friday
at the Culver Bulldogs’ field.
Although turnovers plagued
Grant Union in the second
quarter of the nonleague game,
they led 22-0 at halftime.
“Offensively, we played
OK in the first half,” said Grant
Union head coach Jason Mill-
er. “The second half was much
better offensively.”
He added, “Defense played
stout the entire game.”

held at Buffalo Peaks Golf Course in Union.
middle linebacker Cauy Weav-
er, a senior, said the game al-
lowed the younger players to
gain more experience.
“It also helped us see what
we can improve on,” he said.
Grant Union (4-1 over-
all) hosts Imbler (1-2) for the
Prospectors league opener and
homecoming at 6 p.m. Friday.
Grant Union
volleyball team
garners two 3-0
sweeps in one day
The Grant Union Prospec-
tor volleyball team was on a
roll Saturday, sweeping En-
terprise and Elgin.
Their first stop was in En-
terprise, where they beat the
Outlaws 25-7, 25-15 and 25-
16.
Facing Elgin at the Hus-
kies’ court later that day,
Grant Union won with scores
of 25-8, 25-15, 25-9.
This was Prospector Syd-
ney Brockway’s first day
back, playing all-around —
she had been playing back
row due to an injury.
“She definitely made an
impact,” said Grant Union
head coach Shae Speth.
“Mariah Moulton had a
great day with very few er-
rors offensively and defen-
sively,” Speth added. “We
did well with controlling the
ball and running our offense
effectively.”
In Elgin, Reagan Shel-
ley was out with an injury
during warm-ups.
“Taylor Allen stepped in
and did a tremendous job,”
Speth said.
The two wins puts the
Prospectors on a 13-game
win streak.
Grant Union has a 20-1
overall record, and they are
6-0 in the Wapiti League.
“Heading into the second
half of league, we have defi-
nitely been focusing more
on fine-tuning our game
and minimizing our errors,”
Speth said.
She said she expects this
week’s matches to be tough.
Grant Union hosts Im-
bler for homecoming in
John Day on Friday with
junior varsity at 3 p.m.,
followed by varsity at 4:30
p.m.
The Prospectors travel to
Union to face the Bobcats at
1 p.m.
