EIGHT - Heppner Gazette-Times. Heppner. Oregon Wednesday, October 13, 1993 Mustangs scuttle Pirate Ship 37-7 Fillies lose first league game, JV’s win Photo by Joyce Hughes Jeff Botefuhr (23) gains yardage against the Riverside Pirates last Thursday at the fairgrounds in Heppner. The Heppner M ustangs answered the question, “ Who is the best football team in Morrow County” emphatically with a 37-7 pasting of the Riverside Pirates at the Morrow County Fairgrounds Thursday night, Oct. 7. The Pirates never had a chance as the Mustangs scored twice in the first six minutes of the first quarter and never looked back. Riverside fumbled on their first play from scrimmage and it took only four plays for Heppner to score from the Pirates’ 20 yard line. Fullback Jim Tellechea smashed 10 yards to the Riverside five yard line and then bulled in from the three to make it 6-0 before the coffee was even done The "HOOD TIME” D ealers Are Back HHS Booster Club’s 8th Annual RENO NITE October 16, 1993, 7 p .m .

Len Brittner kicked the ball off to the Pirates and nailed a lineman while Jon Hanna recovered the ball to set the Mustangs up for their next scoring drive. Quarterback Rick Koffler gain ed 3 1 yards on four carries in the 56 yard drive and halfback Kevin Payne scored from six yards out for a 12-0 lead. The pat was wide left. Payne came back with a vengence after a one-week absence. He scored two touchdowns, caught two passes for 32 yards, carried the ball seven times for 44 yards and racked up a season-high number of defensive points with two in terceptions and a fumble recovery and several assisted and unassisted tackles. The Mustangs are a good team getting better. The defense of the Mustangs appears to bend but not break. Riverside had a total of 128 yards offense and scored a lone meaningless touchdown in the fourth quarter. Lineman Joe Lindsay and Dwayne Dunaway controlled the line of scrimmage and Payne and Brittner the backfield. Jon Hanna is seeimg more and more time on the field and recovered two Pirate fumbles during the game. Jim Tellechea and Ryan Munkers also racked up the defensive points in a total team effort. Fullback Jeff Botefuhr capped an 18 play drive, scoring the Mustangs' third touchdown with a two yard plunge and Brittner added the pat for a 19-0 lead. Kevin Payne intercepted the Pirates’ only scoring opportuni ty to end the half. Heppner scored the first two times they had the ball in the se cond half. Koffler hit Brittner with a 22 yard scoring strike with 10:36 left in the third quarter and hit Brittner again two minutes later with an 11 yard pass for a 31-0 Mustang lead. Koffler threw three touchdown passes on the evening and was 10-19 for 151 yards and one interception. Koffler hit Payne with a 12 yard touchdown pass on the first play of the fourth quarter to close the scoring for Heppner. The pat was missed. The Mustangs seem to have a tough time putting a good snap, good hold and good kick together. The balance of the game the crowd was left wondering just how many penalties referee George Gillette and his crew would call. Both teams were penalized heavily and clipping seemed to be the penalty of choice for the evening. Heppner returns to Columbia Basin Conference action Friday night, Oct. 15 hosting the Pilot Rock Rockets. The Rockets are winless in league play.

The match went two games with Heppner plagued with inconsistency. The Fillies jumped out to a 3-2 lead but fell to a slow momentum and never seemed to capitalize on the Tiger Scots’ mistakes.

But the Fillies broke down defensively and couldn’t seem to get the breaks they needed as they lost 6-15.

The front row play of Jessica Sumner, April Roll is and Tina Kemp lead the Fillies to a 15-10 victory. The C-team Fillies played a tough Weston-McEwen team but ended up short losing in three games 6-15, 15-5, 8-15.

In what turned out to be the key factor in the game, the point after attempt failed. The third quarter was scoreless for both teams and time was running out when Ashbeck and Baker connected again for a 22 yard pass play touchdown. The point-after at tempt. which would have tied the game was stopped by a determin ed Bulldog defense. Culver's Nat McRostie gave the Cards fits, rushing for 186 yards and scoring both touchdowns.
