WHS football loses to Heppner
By Bruce Dustin
For The Columbia Press
The Warrenton Warrior
football team suffered a 15-12
loss at Heppner last Saturday
night.
A first-quarter score of
6-7 -- a one point deficit for
Warrenton, was followed by
a second quarter score of 12-
7, with the Warriors in the
lead.
Hordie Bodden Bodden
had run the ball in for two
touchdowns by the first half,
a three-yard run in the first
quarter and a five-yarder in
the second.
The third quarter was emp-
ty of points but the fourth
was a touchdown pass by
Heppner, followed by a two-
point conversion.
Hordie had 13 completions
out of 34 passes for 181 yards
in the game. He had 15 run-
ning attempts for 69 yards.
Dylan Atwood had 67 yards
in 12 attempts.
Ethan Caldwell received 5
passes for 81 yards, Joshua
Earls had 4 receptions for
59 yards, Mikey Ulness had
2 for 21, Dawson Little had
2 receptions for 7 yards, and
Dylan Atwood had a recep-
tion for 14 yards.
“The game didn’t go as
planned offensively,” Hordie
said. “We struggled the entire
game and I made some bad
reads, reads that could have
sent some positive vibes to
our side.”
There was miscommunica-
tion defensively, too.
“We’ve worked hard, and
we’ll continue to work hard,”
he said. “But we just lacked
some energy against Hep-
pner.”
