lone varsity teams were unable
to travel to Helix on Friday, Jan.
17, because o f the sudden ice storm
that hit both communities. On Sat
urday, Jan. 18, h ow ever, the
Wheeler Falcons flew into town to
take on both lone boys’ teams and
the lone Lady Cardinals’ varsity
squad. The lone Lady Cards led the
whole way-cruising to a 47-34 win
over the Falcons.
Suzy Heideman led lone inside
the paint, while Brenda Bumght led
the Cardinals from outside.
Heideman and Bumght had the
game-high 14 and 13 points, re
spectively. Heideman also led the
rebounding effort with 14.
Wheeler’s Connie Humphrey, a jun
ior, lead the Falcon scoring attack
->
with i 12.
The Falcons stayed close to the
lone offensive pressure, leaving the
score within four, 24-20 on the
board. The score made people think
it was going to the wire, but in the
third quarter, the fire was turned
up underneath the Cardinals’ feet.
They outscored the Falcons 13-4,
and easily made it through the
fourth, keeping up the offensive
and defensive tactics that were suc
cessful in the third.
Dawn Boor and Camie Bumght
were new starters in the Lady Car
dinal lineup. Boor added seven
points, three rebounds and two
steals. C. Bumght had eight points,
four rebounds and five steals. All
the bench saw playing time as the
Cards added another win to their

Mustang girls tether Wahtonka Eagles, 55-35
by Molly Rhea
On Saturday, January 18, the
hosting varsity Mustang girls
easily tethered the Wahtonka
Eagles, 55-35. Due to the ice
storm Thursday night this was the
only CBC action for the entire
weekend
Coach John Boyer has developed
a strong team that enables him
substitute freely It is routine for
Heppner’s score sheet to list at
least seven players scoring. Eight
o f the ten varsity players
contributed
with
points
to
Saturday‘s win
The first quarter both teams
mounted an effective press which
had the Mustangs trailing 7-10 at
the end o f the period
The
pressure
loosened
somewhat
during the second and Heppner
pulled ahead 24-19 as they headed
into the half.
What Coach Bov er told his team
during the break worked. For
although both teams went back
into full court pressure for the
third quarter, the Mustang girls'
efforts were not hampered and
they outscored the Eagles 15-8, to
lead at the end o f three. 39-27.
Heppner \ised the final quarter to
widen the margin, outscoring
Wahtonka 16-8. winning the
game 55-35.
Stat keepers had Heppner
shooting a strong 45 percent from
the field The Mustangs shot six
for 12 free throws, while the
Eagles made five o f 12. In the
turnover department. Heppner
2
logged 16 i while Wahtonka had 27.
Lori Moeller, Heppner’s only
senior and a solid team leader, had
an outstanding game, leading all
scorers with 16 points, eight
rebounds, three steals and two
assists. Jill Barber scored eight,
with two steals, an assist and a
board
Annie Hisler hustled her way to
seven points, along with three
rebounds, four steals and one
assist Freshman Casey Ingraham
got credit for seven points, four
rebounds and a steal. Jaci Hughes
scrambled to six points, five
steals, one assist and one rebound.
Brooke Boy er scored four points,
as did Lexi Matteson Matteson
Bill Schonly, radio voice o f the
Portland Trailblazers always says
it: "You've got to make your
freethrows." And it was never as
true as Saturday night, January 18,
as the Heppner Mustangs hosted
the Wahtonka Eagles
The Mustangs were 5-22 from
the chanty stnpe as a winnable
game got away from them down
the stretch and Wahtonka ended
up with a 54-43 win
The Mustangs broke on top and
led 15-12 after the first quarter
against a big front line that went 6'
5*, 6' 4" and 6' 3" for the Eagles
JefT Watkins scored six o f his 10
points in the first stanza against
the taller Eagles
Heppner Clung to a 23-22 half
tone lead and play ed very patiently
against Wahtonka
The Eagles had two small runs
in the third auarter and led 40-35
entering the last quarter Midway
through the last quarter. Heppner
ullea even with Wahtonka The
agles hit two baskets and led 47-
43 and the Mustangs started to
foul Heppner was particularly bad
from the line, hitting only 4-13 in
the last quarter from the line
Jim Schlaich had 13 points and
12 rebounds to pace the Mustangs.
Jerid Ployhar had sev en rebounds
and Eric Schonbachler added six
rebounds to go with nine points
Robert Person and Sam Evans
led the Eagles with 14 points each
and Josh Ice and Ben Cartwright
each had 10 points for the
balanced Wahtonka attack
. While it was a frustrating loss,
coach Bob Ployhar said. "The
kids played hard and executed
well, but you can't expect to beat a
;ood team when you only make
ive o f 22 free throws.
The Mustangs were without the
service o f lunior Chris Anthonv
who broke his collarbone and will
be out o f action for the remainder
o f the season.
The loss brings Heppner's league
record to 2-2 on the season
