On Friday, February 28, the
Spartans of Pine Eagle dashed the
Heppner Mustangs' hopes of
making a state basketball playoff
appearance,
winning
56-44
LaGrande's Quinn Coliseum was
the site of the regional matchups,
and the teams from Heppner and
Pine Eagle had the disadvantage of
having to win two games to
adv ance into the state bracket play
The Mustangs came out pressing
and contained the Spartans is the
backcourt on
their first
possession. Pine Eagle quickly
adjusted, capitalizing on Lyrica
Smith, a 6' sophomore, by
repeatedly lobbing the inbound
pass, enabling her to score six
points in the first quarter Smith,
combined with Jessica Vaughn,
w ho hit five of seven freethrows in
the first quarter, brought the
Spartans to a 13-8 lead after the
first eight minutes.
Although the team from Pine
Eagle managed to outscore
Heppner in ev ery quarter, the win
was anything but a runaway With
2:39 remaining in the game the
Mustangs were within five points,
38-43, when Jaci Hughes hit a
three-point goal to narrow the
margin to two points, 41-43.
With the clock running down
Heppner was forced to repeatedly
foul to gam possession With 1:39
on the clock Annie Hisler fouled
out, quickly followed by Hughes
With less than six seconds
remaining Lon Moeller earned
five fouls and the Spartans had put
the game beyond the Mustangs
reach.
Heppner converted a dismal eight
of 20 from the foul line while Pine
Eagle hit 18-of-30 The Spartans
blocked several Mustang shot
attempts, and the Heppner squad
just had too many turnovers to
pull off this game
Vaughn was the game's high
scorer with 23 points with Smith
adding 13. The only two other
Spartans to score were Cammie
Rowen with 11 and Monica
Elguezabel with nine
Moeller put forth a strong
performance, making 15 points,
nine rebounds and two steals
Hisler hustled to 10 points, six

Because of the many changes
that have occurred in the Fossil
Unit, future public hunting
opportunities will be reduced,
according
to
an
Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife
(ODFW)news release
ODFW
is asking for input in discussing
the options for future elk
management
and
hunting
opportunities
According to the release, public
access for hunting elk in the Fossil
Unit will be limited to
approximately 35.000 acres The
remaining acreage consists of
private lands and public access
will "undoubtedly be a problem",
the release continued
Possible solutions could consist
of:
-Keeping the existing limited
entry first season for either-sex elk
and reducing the total tag
numbers;
-Changing to a tag availability
system as is currently being used
in the South Fossil area; or
-Developing a new hunting
season that addresses elk damage
problems and limited hunter
access

the meetings, may contact the
