Dufur Rangers fall to Lady Cardinals, 53-33
By Kara Miller
The Lady Cardinals' varsity
game against the Dufur Lady
Rangers Friday, Jan. 3, started
out with a quick three-pointer
by Cardinal Dawn Boor and
that was all it took for the
Cards to gain the lead and get
their momentum for the rest of
the ball game. The Lady Cards
won the game, 53-33.
The lone girls held the
Rangers to eight points while
they upped their own by 14 in
the first quarter. Suzy Heide-
man helped the Cards in a big
way in the second quarter by
scoring seven o f her game-
high 15 points. Heideman was
the only Cardinal scorer o f the
quarter, but she kept the in
tensity rolling on the court.
Dufur matched Heideman with
their 57" junior, Amanda
Lindell, who led her team with
14 points.
In the third, the Cards mixed
up their offense and let every
one have a chance at a shot at
Camie Burright steals the ball against Dufur
the hoop. That strategy seemed
to be successful, as they held
the Rangers to one point,
while increasing their own Heppner JV teams nearly flawless
score by 17.

Lady Mustangs blow away W-M TigerScots
by Molly Rhea
The wind blew in the
Weston-McEwen Tiger-Scots
for the first league match up
on Friday, January 3, and the
Heppner Mustangs blew them
on out. Although it wasn’t
actually a “blowout” the
Heppner girls did best the
seventh ranked team - exciting
stuff for us Mustang fans
It was an intense game with
both teams in a press The
Mustangs trailed 11-14 after
the first eight minutes, then by
the end o f the second quarter
were able to narrow the Tiger-
Scot lead to one, 23-
24 Heppner scored 11 points
to Weston-McEwen’s eight in
the third, and 15 to best their
13 in the fourth to leash and
muzzle the Tiger-Scots
The difference in the game
came down to the free throw
line
In the first half the
Mustangs sent the Tiger-Scots
to the line 14 times to convert
10, while Heppner was able to
make only four o f 12 from the
charity stripe In the second
half Heppner put up a tough
defense while committing only
six fouls so as not to allow
Weston-McEwen a free shot
While the Mustangs were
playing “hands-off defense”
the Tiger-Scots committed 13
fouls, allowing the Heppner
girls to bag 11 o f 15 free
throws.
Lori Moeller led Heppner’s
scoring with 15, seven from
the free throw line, and pulled
down seven rebounds
Jaci
Hughes came off the bench to
tally 10, six popped in as free
throws Brooke Boyer came in
to rack up seven points, while
Annie Hisler and Casey
Ingraham each scored five Jill
Barber scored three with a
trey; Mindy Binchus and Lexi
Matteson each dished out a
bucket for two points apiece
Weston-McEwen’s Amber
Weatherspoon was their high
scorer with 15 in the losing
effort
This was definitely the CBC’s
game of the week and it took
some spunky Mustang girls to
reveal that the real “truth about
cats and dogs” is that they can
be beaten.

hy Molly Rhea
It was Saturday, January 4,
so the Heppner Mustangs and
most of tneir fans were in
Moro facing the Sherman
County Huskies Heppner’s
varsity girls were defeated by a
team of physical players that
worked a tight zone defense to
sew up the inside while hardly
missing a shot throughout the
game
After one quarter Heppner
trailed Sherman County 11-20.
The Mustangs came out in the
second quarter and worked a
series of plays to come within
two points before the Huskies
went into a scoring frenzy and
finished first half once again
leading by nine, 34-25.
The Mustangs worked hard
but continued to have a tough
time penetrating the zone,
while the Huskies never lost
their hothand The margin at
the end of the third remained at
nine, 35-46 Near the end of
the fourth quarter Coach John
Boyer went to a “shoot a trey
and quickly foul” offense that
brought Heppner within five
points, but they were unable to
overcome the deficit and
ending up losing, 50-58
The margin o f loss was again
seen at the free throw line with
the Mustangs converting on
only eight of 16 while Sherman
County hit eight o f 11 This
brings the Mustangs’ record an
even 1-1 for league play, and
9-3 for the season
With 14 points, Lori Moeller
was once again Heppner’s top
scorer Jaci Hughes came in
