Destroy Wasco tlleppner registered its see old consecutive shutout and grabbed third place in the Columbia Basin Conference with a convincing 42-0 thrash ing of Wasco County here Friday in the season finale. The Mustangs, who finished 6 2 In CBC play and 7-2 overall, mounted a 21-0 half time edge and never looked back in overpowering Wasco (0-8). , "I think we did better than most people expected of us this year," said Mustang head coach John Sporseen of the third place effort. Indeed, lleppner was not highly regarded entering the campaign. But led by their first year mentor, the Mus tangs ripped off five straight victories to launch the season. Back-to-back setbacks to Umatilla (8 0) and Sherman 01) were the only roadblocks to an otherwise perfect mark. Karl Christman hauled in two touchdown passes from quarterback Jerry Cutsforth nd Bruce Young caught one TD pass and threw for another to spearhead the onslaught over Wasco. Cutsforth connected with Christman on a 28 yard aerial strike early in the going for the contest's first score. Jim McLaughlin ran for the two point conversion and lleppner led 8 0 after the first quarter. Young scooted in from one yard out early in the second stanza and Wayne Seitx grab bed an eight yard TD toss from Young later in the period.

"The kids stayed up for it and played well," he said. The win should give us some momentum for next year plus it gives our seniors a good feeling going out Naturally, we're pleased." Christman, who finished' the game with five receptions for 122 yards, hauled in a 14 yard pass from Cutsforth to begin the second half. Mark Parker added the PAT. Sophomore Dennis Peck, just one of several Mustangs . who'll return next year to battle for the CBC title, scampered 19 yards for a score minutes later.

In other CBC action Friday, undefeated and playoff bound Umatilla clinched the crown outright with 37 8 spanking' of Riverside. Oregon Trail won its third straight with a thrilling 12 9 overtime decis-. ion over Pilot Rock. And in a game which lleppner anxiously awaited the outcome, Sherman blasted Weston McEwen 30 13.

A W-M win, however would have put Heppner, Sherman and W-M in a three-way deadlock for second place. Sporseen, who is assisted in the coaching department by Dale Conklin and George Koffler, enjoyed great success for his first season in the CBC, generally regarded as one of the state's toughest A classifi cation circuits. The Mustangs shared first place with Umatilla for over half the season. They beat Condon, Pilot Rock, Oregon Trail, Riverside and Weston McEwen to open the season. Then came the hard-fought losses to Sherman and Umatil la before they closed with whitewashings over Pendle ton's JV's and Wasco County.
