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

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 Heppner Fillies lost their
first league volleyball game
against a very experienced
Weston-McEwen team last week
4-15, 6-15. 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. They lost the
game 4-15.
The second game was a heart
breaker as the Fillies fought back
with six points to the visitors’
eight. But the Fillies broke down
defensively and couldn’t seem to
get the breaks they needed as they
lost 6-15.
The Fillies will regroup as they
have some tough competition in
the next few weeks leading into
the district tournament which will
be held in Heppner, Saturday,
Oct. 30.
The JV girls faced Weston-
McEwen for the first time this
season. The Fillies came out
ahead in the series winning the se
cond and third, losing the first
6-15, 16-14, 15-10.
The first game, the Fillies had
a difficult time getting into
rhythm with missed net shots,
low percentage of serves and out
of bounds shots. The lost the
match 6-15.
In the second game the Fillies
came out with fine serving and
took a 5-0 lead. Weston-McEwen
fought back and gave the Fillies
some competition as they trailed
by only one point 10-9. Both
teams dug hard and battled to a
14-14 tie. Heppner pulled out the
victory 16-14.
The third game proved too
much for the visitors as the Fillies
stayed ahead after the first point
and never looked back. 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.
Cardinals lose squeaker to Bulldogs
By Anne Morter
In what was an exact replica of
last year, as far as the score was
concerned anyway, the lone Car
dinals lost a squeaker to the
Culver Bulldogs on the road last
Thursday, Oct. 7, 12-14. The
loss dropped the Cards from the
undefeated ranks in league stan
dings, leaving Culver and Dufur
the only two undefeateds remain
ing. After this weekend, only one
will remain as Culver and Dufur
are due to square off this Satur
day in Dufur.
The Bulldogs defense was
staunch, shutting down the usual
ly potent Cardinal ground game.
With the Cards held to 98 yards
on the ground, they took to the
air where quarterback Jared
Ashbeck connected on 11 of 23
passes for 180 yards. “ Their
quarter, leaving it up to the Cards
to play catch-up. lone made their
first score o f the day when
Bridger Baker made 60 yards on
a pass reception from Ashbeck.
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. The Bulldogs had
213 yards on the ground and 62
