The lone Cardinals continued with
their winning ways, chalking up two
more in the win column last
weekend, defeating Echo on Friday
and downing Culver on Saturday.
Both games were played on the road.
The Cards now boast a 9-2 league
record, with their overall mark stan
ding at 12-6.
On Friday evening, a rejuvenated
Echo team gave the unsuspecting
Cardinals a run for their money
before falling 71-77. The last place
Cougars, with the help of a newly-
added transfer student from Alaska,
lit up the scoreboard in the second
half as the Cards struggled to focus
on the task at hand.
Mike Garrett led all scorers with
22 points. Deacon Heideman added
13 and Justin Miller and Gabe Gar
cia each had 11. Garrett also had a
good night on the boards, pulling
down 22 rebounds, 11 offensive and
11 defensive. Playing all over the
court, Garrett also paced the Cards
in steals with six. Point guard David
Wagenblast handed out 11 assists
with Ryan Halvorsen adding four
and Gabe Garcia chipping in three.
Deacon Heideman had four blocked
shots for the Cardinals. lone shot 40
percent from the floor making 31 of
77. Echo shot a red-hot 47 percent
from the floor, making 26 of 55 and
from three-point land, they hit four
of six for 67 percent. At the line, the
Cards were 13 of 26 for 50 percent
and the Cougars were 15 of 26 for
58 percent.
According to coach Del LaRue,
the Cardinals didn’t play well
although Garrett had a good in
dividual effort. “ We went through
the motions,” he said. “ When you
beat a team by 36 (in their last
outing) it’s hard to get too excited,”
he added.
On Saturday, the Cardinals made
the long trek to Culver and returned
with a 66-49 victory. The game was
close in the first half, when Mike
Garrett and Ryan Halvorsen were
forced to spend most of the second
quarter on the bench because of foul
trouble. But in the third quarter,
Gabe Garcia scored 13 of his game
high 19 points, banging in three
three-point shots, to lead a Cardinal
spurt that broke the game open.
Besides Garcia’s 19 points, which
included a total of four three-
pointers, Mike Garrett had 14
points. Deacon Heideman had 12
and Ryan Halvorsen added 10. The
Cards flexed their rebounding
muscles, outrebounding the Bulldogs
62-29. Garrett led the attack with a
season-high 25 boards. Halverson
pulled down 11 and Heideman add
ed 10. Heideman also blocked five
shots in the game. David Wagenblast
dished out 10 assists with Gabe Gar
cia adding four and Ryan Halverson
tallying three. Garcia also led in
steals with five. The Cards had a fair
shooting night, making close to 40
percent from the floor.
Coach Del LaRue was happy with
the win and commended Gabe Gar
cia for a good effort, noting that he
nailed several key three-point
baskets and played well defensively.
This weekend, the Cardinals face
a critical game with Condon on Fri-;
day and then travel to Cascade Locks ;
on Saturday. The Cards must beat
Condon to enter the district tourna
ment as the first place team from
their division. The Condon games
will be played in lone starting at 3
p.m. with two JV contests.
Mustangs take heart
stopping win over Vikings

Umatilla could only hit 10-22 for 45
percent.
Heppner led 60-57 after three
quarters and that set the stage for the
exciting finish.

Mustangs saw five players in dou
