TEN The Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, November 8, 1979 On to state Volleyball team second at district The Heppner women's vol leyball team finished second at the "7-A" District Volley ball Tournament last weekend in Pendleton so the team will be going to the state tourna ment. Heppner's first opponent will be the team from Enter prise, who first its Weston-McEwen won the second game of the match 15-12. Heppner had trailed again 9-5 and 14-9 but they fought back and fell just short. Geri Grieb's serving led Heppner to its win in the first game as the team just kept the ball in play and let the TigerScots make the mis- the game 16-14 and the match two games to one. A bad call by a line judge could have cost Heppner the match when she said Kellie Hammond touched a serve that was out of bounds when it was obvious Hammond did not. But the Heppner team fought back despite the bad was 1muL. "BwWnrtflpp M 'mmm So Heppner had to work its way up through the loser's bracket. The team was down after losing in the first round and they came up against Helix and they lost 15-4 in the first game of that match and it looked like the team might have a short afternoon of play. Helix had a tall girl, six-foot-one inch Rockal New iston, who dominated the first I game but was not a factor in the next two games as I Heppner won 15-8 and 15-7. . Kincaid and Abrams spikes led to the second game win for Heppner and the serving of Lynn Dee Devin, Grieb, Ham mond and Steagall led the way in the other win. The high point server for the 10 games the team played in the tournament was Steagall with 22. Devin had 20. Grieb 18, Abrams 13, Kincaid and Hammond 12, Nancy Miller had seven and Carolyn Plo charskv three.

Heppner trailed the Tiger Scots 1-0 before the first game of the match even started because the TigerScots were awarded a penalty point when Heppner Coach Sheri Brock decided to change her starting line-up just before the game started. Her strategy paid off be f ause Heppner came back to win the first game 15-11 after the team trailed 11-6. Both teams had trouble serving in the second game but the Mustangs had the most trouble leading to their defeat. So the third game of the match was the deciding one on which team would go to state. Heppner started out leading 3-0 and led 4-3 before the TigerScots made a big run. Weston-McEwen pulled ahead 11- 4 and it looked like the team from Heppner had lost its inspiration. But Alice Abrams came up to serve and she led the comeback. The TigerScots led 12- 6, 13-9, 13-12, 14-12 and 14-13 before Heppner tied it up at 14-14. Heppner scored the final two points of the game to win P i The team rejoices after the win oyer the Tiger Scots.
