Cardinals lose first game of season Lady Cards lose opener
By Anne Morter
The lone lady Cardinals lost
their season opener to Pilot
Rock last Thursday, September
8, but in the eyes of first year
head coach, Charity McElligott,
they showed promise. The lady
Cards took the visiting Rockets
to three games but couldn't
quite collect the win as Pilot
Rock claimed the match 15-7,
5-15, 16-14.
Communication problems
and jitters opened the door for
the Rockets in the first game.
With game time delayed, the
Cards looked cold once they
finally took the court. The girls
struggled to find their rhythm
as the Rockets eased to the win.
The match took on a different
look in the second game where
strong front row play by Suzie
H eidem an
and
M elissa
McElligott was complimented
by Jessica Stefani's hot servng.
This time it was the Rockets
who found themselves out of
contention before they realized
what happened.
The Cardinals looked ready
to finish off the match with a
win as they cruised out to a 7-0
lead in the third game. They
reached game point while Pilot
Rock had only nine points. A
couple of calls didn't go the
Cardinals' way and coach
McElligott noted that the team
went into a mode of playing
"safely, instead of playing our
gam e." That combination of
factors was all Pilot Rock need
ed to rally for the win.
Despite the loss, McElligott
has high hopes for the season.
With five returning starters and
two girls in the 6'0 range she
would have to be pleased. " I
think we have a very good
team and a chance to do good
things," she stated.

The lone Cardinals played
their first full football game at
home last Friday, September 9,
losing to defending state cham
pion Wallowa, 56-30.
The first half was all
Wallowa, as the Cards watch
ed their opponents put 32
points on the board in the first
half. Wallowa scored once
more before the Cardinals
responded with a couple of
scores of their own. The teams
traded touchdowns on their
way to the final margin.
The Cards racked up 199
yards of total offense in the
game but the bigger, stronger,
more experienced Wallowa
squad tallied a whooping 484
yards. The Cardinals, with
sophomore quarterback Luke
Swanson at the helm, ran 34
times for a net of 116 yards. In
the air the team stats said six
completions on 16 ties for a
total of 83 yards.
N
Sophomore Randy Scott pro
ved to be a bright spot as he led
the Cards in rushing with 58
yards and dodged opponents
as he returned kick-offs and
punts. Scott was responsible
for one of the Cardinals'
touchdowns. Rodney Ehrman-
traut scourd a touchdown and
was the second leading rusher
with 40 yards. Greg Holtz also
scored and had 39 yards
rushing.
Freshman Marc Orem was
another young player who
showed potential as he was the
leading receiver catching five
passes for 89 yards. Orem
set«»»*.! a touchdown and three
extra points. He also led the
defensive statistics with seven
unassisted and seven assisted
tackles. Nathan Heideman
added three unassisted tackles
and 13 assists in the game.
"T hey were tough," said
head Coach Gregg Rietmann of
the Wallowa team. Rietmann
said by the second half his team
had settled down and realized
they could play with them. " I
saw some bright sp ots," he
said, but also noted that the
game pointed out several areas
where more work is needed.
"It was a good first game for
us. We got to see everyone
play ," said Rietmann.
