Dayville/Monument
football loses road
game
The Dayville/Monument foot-
ball team battled in Friday’s non-
league football game in Spray, but
Mitchell/Spray/Wheeler came out
with the 24-13 win.
“It was going pretty good, but
we were down on numbers,” said
head coach Kyle Hand.
Quarterback JT Hand didn’t
play in the game because of a pre-
vious injury, and quarterback Don-
ovan Schafer went down injured in
the third quarter.
Most scoring action took place
in the first half with Mitchell/
Spray/Wheeler scoring three
touchdowns in the first and second
quarters, and Dayville/Monument
scoring two touchdowns in the sec-
ond quarter.
Schafer threw to receivers Gabe
Walker-Hopkins and Mark Thomas
for 12 points, and Tell Cox caught
Schafer’s pass for 1 extra point.
At halftime, Mitchell/Spray/
Wheeler led 18-13.
“In the second half, both teams
were really physical,” Hand said.
“It was a good defensive game.”
After Schafer went out, Walk-
er-Hopkins, Thomas and Cox took
turns covering the quarterback po-
sition.
In the final 30 seconds, Mitch-
ell/Spray/Wheeler broke away for
a 95-yard run to score a touch-
down.
Thomas and Walker-Hopkins
had interceptions in the game.
Hand credited freshmen Jaydon
Hoffman and Zachary Ferguison
for stepping up and playing well.
“They made some good tackles
and completed their assignments,”
Hand said.
To allow time to heal from inju-
ries, Dayville/Monument has can-
celed this Friday’s nonleague game
with McKenzie.
Wednesday, October 3, 2018
The Tigers will host the South
Wasco County Redsides at 1 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 12, in Monument.
“I think we have a good chance,
as long as they heal up,” Hand said.
“They’re beat up this week but still
have high spirits, and they’re hav-
ing fun. That’s important.”

The Prospectors will compete
at the Mustang Invitational at
Thompson Ranch in Heppner on
Thursday, Oct. 4. Varsity girls start

Grant Union cross

Baker City
Long Creek/Ukiah
soccer defeats
Umatilla junior
varsity
Eighteen runners on the Grant
Union boys and girls cross country
teams took on Friday’s Baker In-
vitational held at Quail Ridge Golf
Course.
“Baker was a hard course with
a lot of uphill,” said head coach
Sonna Smith. “We ended with our
varsity boys team running in a
tighter group for placing, but we
are still working up to moving the
entire pack closer to the front of
the race.”
Smith said she was pleased with
the better numbers of boys partic-
ipating. Eleven finished the race.
Eli Sheedy was unable to complete
the race after injuring his knee
partway through. Six racers on the
girls team finished the race.
“Middle school boys again fin-
ished a strong third, 4 points be-
hind Union which is our main com-
Long Creek/Ukiah junior var-
sity, a class 1A school, won their
opening soccer match 9-3, hosting
the 3A Riverside junior varsity on
Wednesday, Sept. 26.
“It was a good opening game.
The kids learned a lot of lessons
about doing it alone versus work-
ing together,” said Long Creek/
Ukiah head coach Amos Studt-
mann. “I think in the future they
will pace themselves better and
pass the ball more. We’re working
on both teamwork and finishing
with a good shot, because we got
close many times and missed the
last shot.”
Mathéo Buchart scored three
goals, and Marsel Kozhogvlov
scored three goals.
Studtmann said he’s especial-
ly impressed with Kozhogvlov,
a foreign exchange student from
Kyrgyzstan, because he had never
played soccer before joining the
team. He said goalie Jesus Olmos
blocked several shots. All of Studt-
mann’s eligible athletes had play-
ing time.
Long Creek/Ukiah was sched-
uled to face Riverside junior var-
sity again on Tuesday, past press
time, the match played in Board-
man. The local team faces the Four
Rivers junior varsity team at 1
p.m. (MT) Saturday in Ontario. On
Wednesday, Oct. 10, Long Creek/
Ukiah hosts Riverside junior varsi-
ty at 3 p.m. in Long Creek.
Grant Union
football takes hit
from Kennedy
The Grant Union Prospectors
fell in Mt. Angel to the Kennedy
Trojans, 37-0.
Head coach Jason Miller said
his team was talented and tough
but didn’t perform well in this
game.
Grant Union (2-3 overall) will
face the Stanfield Tigers (0-5
overall, 0-1 league) in the Pros-
pectors’ first league competition
of the season at 7 p.m. Friday in
Stanfield.
