The Imbler Panthers put a
dent in the Heppner Mustangs'
season record, beating the
Mustangs, 18-0, in nonleague
action at Imbler, Friday, Sept.
15. •
Both teams came into the
game with a top 10 coaches'
poll ranking with Heppner
fourth and Imbler eighth. The
game was tight and hard
hitting and was much closer
than the final score showed.
Both teams were conser
vative through the first quarter
on th e su n n y day w ith
temperatures in the 90s. Hepp
ner turned the ball over deep
in Panther territory with senior
Casey Diehl intercepting Brian
Koffler's flat pass at the Imbler
20 y a rd . line. The Panthers
needed only five plays with
quarterback Ben Lowe sneak
ing the ball into the end zone
for the score from the yard line.
Chris Sykes blocked the pat
and Imbler led 6-0.
The M ustangs tried to
answer back on the next drive.
Heppner drove 59 yards to the
Imbler one yard line but were
stuffed on two running plays
and a fumbled snap on fourth
down. Big plays on the drive
were nine yard runs by Rod
Zumwalt and Jim Schlaich and
pass completions from Koffler
to Ben Ewing and Schlaich.
The game tightened up in the
second half. Both defenses stif
fened and the game was played
between the 30 yard lines with
M ustangs Sykes, Schlaich,
B rent G u n d erso n , S h au n
Hisler and Eric Schonbachler
leading the defensive charge
while Im bler's two senior
tackles Josh McDonald and
Tony Porfily and linebackers
Deal and Austin Bingaman
stopping the Mustangs.
Midway through the fourth
quarter, Heppner held the Pan
thers at the 10 yard line. After
taking over on downs, the
Mustangs faced a fourth and
