A10 SPORTS Blue Mountain Eagle Wednesday, October 9, 2019 SPORTS ROUNDUP Prairie City volleyball pushes Jordan Valley to 4 sets in loss Laken McKay all serving over 90% as well,” Bass said. The Prairie City Panther volleyball team played com- petitively against the visiting Jordan Valley Mustangs Sat- urday, pushing the match to four sets, but the Mustangs came away with the win. Jordan Valley won the first two sets 25-20 and 25-17. Prairie City came back 25-12 in the third, but the Mustangs were able to pull out a 25-19 win in the fourth. “The girls played well. We just had too many unforced errors in the sets we lost,” said Prairie City head coach Jordan Bass. “The third set was a real turning point in the match, and the team was playing at their full potential in that set.” Rilee Emmel and Emily Ennis, both seniors, provided strong offense throughout the match with season-high kills of 11 and 9, respectively. Senior Shaine Madden led the team in aces for the match, serving at 100% with no errors. “We served at 89% as a team for the night with Rilee Emmel, Katie Hire and Prairie City/Burnt River football tripped up by late start on road A long delay in the foot- ball game at McKenzie High School in Finn Rock Fri- day night may have contrib- uted to the Prairie City/Burnt River Panther team’s 39-29 loss to the Eagles. The Panthers traveled six hours to Finn Rock only to have the game delayed more than two more hours until 9:45 p.m. due to the officials not being present. The Panthers gave up a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter, the game ending at midnight. “Declan Zweygardt, Jayden Winegar, Opie McDaniel, Jake McHatton, Marcus Judd (and) Doyal Lawrence led our effort,” said Panther head coach Scott Dean, adding his team was ahead for most of the game. If not for Grant County fans traveling to the game and it being McKenzie’s homecoming night, Dean said they may have canceled the nonleague game. “I know the rule to wait is one hour, (but) two hours and 30 minutes is extensive and not proper, and finishing at near midnight is ridiculous,” Dean said. Prairie City/Burnt River has a week off, then will cel- ebrate homecoming with a league game, hosting the Dayville/Monument Tigers at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 18. Ukiah/Long Creek volleyball competes well in win and loss The Ukiah/Long Creek volleyball team chalked up a win over the Burnt River Bulls Friday, the Moun- tain Lions sweeping on the road to Unity with scores of 25-13, 25-15 and 25-10. Competing at Dayville/ Monument’s Dig Pink Rally on Saturday, the Mountain Lions played strong against the Adrian Antelopes junior varsity team, pushing the match to five sets. Adrian won with scores of 25-9, 7-25, 18-25, 25-10 and 15-13. Head coach Reagan Enriquez said she couldn’t ask for more from the team last week. “We always enjoy play- ing Burnt River. With a school so involved with foreign exchange stu- dents, as our own, our skills are matched very well,” Enriquez said, adding that against Adrian junior var- sity their team “played nearly flawlessly.” She said the team has had many ups and downs this season, including los- ing both captains for the majority of the season. “The team, ever dili- gent on sportsmanship, still fought for the collabora- tion, only they keep with one another,” she said. “To say we are proud of the girls is inadequate for the amount we feel for them. As the season winds to an end, we hope the girls take away from this season a sense of accomplishment and skill.” The Mountain Lions will host Condon at 3 p.m. Friday in Long Creek.

Four Grant Union cross country runners set records at Thompson Ranch The 2A Grant Union cross country boys and girls teams were up against runners from 4A and 5A schools at the Hep- pner Invitational Thurs- day, Oct. 3, at Thompson Ranch. “It was a one loop course that made it dif- ficult for spectators, but some athletes do better on courses like this,” said Grant Union head coach Sonna Smith. Erika Dickens, a senior, had a season best run of 22:22.7, placing 15th in the field of 71 runners.
