Gary Rea earns snowmobile title
By Anne Morter
Gary Rea of lone was named
the Semi-Pro Racer of the Year
on the Oregon Snowmobile Rac
ing Circuit at their annual awards
banquet held March 21 in Baker
City.
Rea, in his second year on the
circuit, easily outdistanced the se
cond place finisher, based on race
results held in Canyon City,
Bend, Tollgate, Mt. Hood,
Halfway and West Yellowstone,
Montana. The racing season
stretches from the beginning of
January to the end of March.
Each race consists of two parts,
the first done on an oval race
track and the second on a
“ snow cross”
trail.
The
snowcross is set up something
like a motocross route. Rea was
nearly unbeatable on the oval but
admits he struggled on the
snowcross portion of the race.
But his strength on the oval and
consistently racking up a string of
second and third place finishes
along with an occasional first, he
captured the title.
Rea became interested in
snowmobiles some years back.
Six years ago, he bought his own
machine and has been "hooked
ever since.” Last year, he attend
ed school at Central Oregon
Community College in Bend and
also worked at Sweeney’s Work
and Sport. It was there he met
several racers who persuaded him
to join their team. He managed
to choose some good teachers as
his teammates, Mark Jarvis from
Bend and Rich Schrool of Vale,
finished first and fifth on the pro
circuit this year. Connecting with
these experienced racers also
opened the door for sponsors for
Rea. He was sponsored by
Sweeney’s Work and Sport,
Coors Dry Beer, Woody’s Trac
tion Control Devices, Advanced
Graphics and Signs and Casey’s
Body Shop.
As for next year, Rea plans to
remain semi-pro, although he
figures that he will probably get
some flak from the other racers.
He says that he needs to work on
his snowcross before moving up
to the pro circuit.

Heppner High tracksters
attack record books
H eppner
High
School
tracksters continue to attack the
record book with several outstan
ding individual and team efforts
over the past week, particularity
at the Cherry Festival Invitational
at The Dalles last Friday night,
April 10.
Jenny Krein in her first ever
3.000 meter run demolished the
existing school record with an
11:18.2 clocking. This beat the
old record set by Cathy Martin in
1985 with an 11:52.4, a better
ment of over 34 seconds. The
3.000 mark by Krein earned her
first place and she captured se
cond in the 1500-meter run by
lowering her time to a 5:17.1,
less than two seconds off the
school record and a freshman
class record.
Sophomore Leonard Brittner
increased his high jump mark to
6-5 and a Cherry City meet
record for first palce. He also
placed second in the triple jump.
Kim Umbarger was also a blue-
ribbon place finisher winning the
girls high hurdles in a personal
best o f : 17.7. She was fifth place
in the 300m low hurdles with
:55.9.
Kelsie Evans added a second
place effort to the girls lowering
her time in the 800 m run to
2:38.3.
The sole third place finish was
perform ed by the girls
1600-meter relay team of Evans,
Umbarger, Char Coe and Rondi
Robinson in a time of 4:39.8
which provided a pleasant sur
prise finish. This relay team was
short two regular members who
ran 4:33.7 earlier in the week in
a meet at Umatilla.
The boys 1600-meter relay
team of Willie DeBoer, T.R.
Riehl, Ryan Munkers and Tony
Burt placed fifth. Burt added a
fifth place finish in the 300
hurdles and a sixth place in the
400.
The girls 400-meter relay team
of Umbarger, Evans, Coe and
Krein placed fifth and Kevin
Kilkenny completed the scoring
for Heppner by placing sixth in
the discus.
"The fourth palce finish by the
girls was the highest team finish
in a major meet since 1985,” said
head coach Dale Conklin. "A
possible scoring error indicates
we were really third and we were
short a couple of people at student
conferences that might have earn
ed us even a higher place finish.”
Heppner competes this Satur
day in the annual Condon Inivita-
tional that is scheduled to begin
at 11 a.m. This meet may prove
to be the biggest challenge of the
season as there are some 33
schools scheduled to compete in
this event. Tuesday, Heppner was
in Maupin for a four-way meet
and next Tuesday will travel to
Pendleton to complete on the
BMCC track.
