Newspaper Page TextSIX The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday February 1, 1979 Cards drop big ;ame to Echo, Arlington . 1 t -n By Janet McElligott lone dropped both games this weekend, Friday night to Echo 71-51 and Saturday night 70-46. "We weren't ready to play (Friday night). We were executing our offense pretty well, but our shots just weren't dropping," said lone Coach Del La Rue. "We were just flat," said the coach. "We didin't play good defense." The night did have several bright spots as Kevin McCabe took down 20 rebounds, "prob ably the best he's done in about two years," according to LaRue. He was followed by Robin LaRue with 11. LaRue and Dennis Stefani shared honors of high point man with 12. Kevin McCabe tallied 11, Gregg Rietmann added 9, while Danny Mc Elligott had six and Shawn LaRue one. Larry Holeman had 22 for the victorious Cougars. Saturday things began to look up for the Redbirds as they sprinted away from the Honkers 18-12 in the- first quarter. But slowly and sure ly, the superior height advan tage the Honkers won out "We just couldn't sustain that," said LaRue of his first quarter lead. "The first quar ter and a half we didn't do too bad. Then they started going inside to Bailey (Arlington's 6'5" center and last year's All-State selection) and we just couldn't stop height like that." Even if the Cards were dealt a rough hand they held on tough. Three Cardinal players went on to score in double figures. Danny Mc Elligott . Dennis Stefani and Gregg Rietmannn each had 10. Robin LaRue and Shawn LaRue each had six, while Kevin McCabe dropped in four. Jim Bailey poured in 24 points to lead the opposition. McCabe was high rebound er, this time with only 7, Rietmann followed closely with 6. Again Coach LaRue said, "It was hard for us to combat that superior height." LaRue was the first to admit Arlington is a "real good ball club. They shot real well (43 per cent) and are one of the strongest teams in the state." Looking ahead to the week end, Cascade Locks faces lone in lone Friday, and lone travels to Cascade Locks Saturday.
