ustangs take Echo but lose to Pirates in tournament
The ll-pner Gazctte-Tlme. Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, December 9, 1982 FIVE
liyCI.HNN SMITH
Last Friday, Doc. S, the
MuslanR cnRcrs started their
hnskctbnll season by traveling
to Rordman to play Echo In
the. brfiinnir.R of a four-team ,
two-flay tournament between
lleppner, lone, Riverside and
Echo. The top-rated Echo
Cougars Just could not beat
the Mustangs at the boards
and Heppner returned victor
ious with a win of 60 - 52.
Mustang Coach Brent Eg
gera was very pleased with the
outcome. "Echo was a pretty
good team. They liked to run
the ball a lot and at times Die
teams got out of control, but it
was a good win for us statisti
cally and mentally."
The Mustangs might have
scored even more points
against the Cougars but they
made too many mental mis
takes. "Wo made enough
mental errors to last the sea
son," Eggers commented,
"But Echo made as many
mistakes as we did and our
kids really used their heads
the last five minutes of the
game when it really counted."
Coach Eggers believes that
the Mustangs played together
as a team pretty well but that
lone girl makes J V boys' team

An lone high school sopho
more girl has done something
that no other has done before
her, She joined the J.V. bas
ketball team.
Since the school doesn't
have a girls' basketball team
this year, Paula Anderson
decided to go out for the
"boys'" team. She practiced,
tried out and made it.
"Practice is all right, but I
might get nervous during
games." she said. Although
this is her first year of high
school ball; she played in
sixth, seventh and eighth
grades.
J V. Coach David Sime said
no other girl at the school has
ever tried out for an otherwise
boys' team, but he anticipates
no problems. He said Ander
son will get the same playing
time as other players,
Anderson said it will be
interesting to see what hap
pens when the lone J.V. team
meets the Heppner freshman
team on December 14, as her
brother, Jerry, plays on the
opposing team.
When asked how she felt
about playing on the team, she
said she is treated like any
other team member, "I think
it's great." she added.

team loses first
game to Vikings
By GLENN SMITH

bfittle out their first game
against the Umatilla Vikings.
Although they made a strong
show, they lost 35 55.
Duane Neiffer, coach for the
freshmen, commented "We
played really well together so
far as a team effort is con
cerned, but our defense wasn't
too good and we had a bit of
foul trouble."
Umatilla was successful in
running a fast break on the
Mustangs, aiding the Vikings
In getting the lead for their
eventual win.
leading rebounders for the
Mustangs were Keith Kenni
son with 12 and Alex Lindsay
with eight. The leading scor
ers for the game were Alex
and Todd Lindsay, both with
10.
"The boys are here to get
experience for later playing
while having fun. We work on
developing their skills so that
they can be the potentially
best basketball players that
they can be. I was really
pleased with the outcome of
the game and the attitude of
the boys throughout it. I think
it's going to be a really good
year for the team," the coach
said.
The team's next game was
to be against the Riverside
Pirates on Tuesday. Dec. 7.
they still have some problems
to iron out. staling "We made
a lot of fouls and our offensive
execution was poor, Defen
sively, we played man to man
and pretty much held them."
leading scorers for Hep
pner were Jeff Orr with 21
points, followed by Mike Cur
rin with 16 and Marty Britt
' with 12. Together these three
accounted for 49 of the Mus-
. tangs' 60 points.

of season
By ASHLEY CONKLIN
Under new head coach Bar
bara Stefani, the lone Junior
High girls' basketball team
lost their first game of the
season to the Stanfield Tigers
by a score of 20 to 16.
The first quarter was a
defensive battle as Stanfield
took a 6 - 2 lead. The next
period provided even less
scoring as Stanfield chalked
up two points to the Cardinals
one. taking an 8 3 lead at
halftime.
The two teams came out in
the second half and added
more offense. Stanfield
doubled Ione's output of points
in the third stanza to build a 17
- 7 lead.
The Cardinals made a
comeback attempt in the
fourth quarter, but it fell short
as Stanfield won 20 to 16.
Ione's Deena Hams was the
game's leading scorer with 13
points. Also scoring for the
Cards were Patty McElIigott
with two. and Sandi Wright
had one point.
Seeing action in the game
for the Cards but not scoring
were Mary Ann Alvarado.
Kris Anderson, J J. Osmin,
Jill Conklin, Michelle Beck
and Michelle Papineau.
Ione's next game will be at
home on December 9 at 1:30
p.m. against the Wheeler
County Falcons.
Coach Eggers' rating sys
tem siwtted a 24 to Jeff Orr
and a 15 to Mike Currin. The
rating system is based on
positive points for points
made, interceptions, assists
and rebounds. Ncgataive
points come from turnovers,
fouls and missed shots. He
then adds them up and comes
out with the rating. Eggers
final comment on the game
was "At times we played out
of control, but I think, that,
and our mental errors diffi
culty will be straightened out
in the future games."
On Saturday, the team re
turned to Boardman for the
second round of tournament
action. This time the Mus
tangs faced the Riverside Pi
rates. Unfortunately, pro
blems that the Mustangs had
overcome in their bout with
the Echo Cougars cropped up
once more to take the victory
from the Mustangs with a
score of Heppner, 44 - River
side. 58.
Brent Eggers. commented
"We played a super game the
first 10 minutes, but our fouls
kept them in the game be
cause they kept making the
shots. They just pulled away
from us."
The Mustangs had 32 fouls
with Riverside making 26 of
the 44 free-throws. The fouls
turned out to be the key
statistic of the game. Four
Heppner players fouled out
and two players had four fouls
apiece.
"Our offensive execution
pretty much stalled." Eggers
said. "One of Riverside's
players that they were keying
on was Terry Seel, and al
though we held him to eight
points in the first half, in the
second half we did a poor job."
Seel had 29 points for the
game making 13 for 16 at the
free throw line.
Another problem that pla
gued the Mustangs was their
shooting, making only 25 per
cent from the floor. Most of
Riverside's misses were in the
second half when it was al
ready out of reach for the
Mustangs.
"The fouls were the key
statistic." Eggers" stated, "It
cost us the game. That and our
offensive stall in the second
half gave Riverside the ball
game."
Mike Currin, with 16 points,
was the only player who scor
ed in double figures for the
Mustangs. Currin also grab
bed 16 rebounds in the game.
He had a 18 rating according
to the coach's system. Currin
also made the All Tournament
Team.
"I thought the players'
mental effort to play under
control was a lot better than
the first game." Eggers said,
"and we are planning on
practicing very hard for our
next game." The Mustangs
will travel to Condon this
Friday and Saturday. Dec. 10
and 11. to compete in another
tournament.
