With a varsity tournament at
Riverside and a JV tournament in
John
Day,
the
Mustang
volleyball teams galloped off in
opposite directions on Saturday,
September 6, and both trotted
home with second place honors.
The six teams participating in
Boardman included Imbler,
Hermiston, Enterprise, Riverside,
Heppner and the La Grande JVs.
Each team played two games
against every other team with the
ultimate winners determined by
games won and, if necessary,
points allowed.
The Mustangs beat Riverside
15-10, 15-10, defeated
En
terprise 15-8, 15-7, and stomped
La Grande's JVs 15-2, 15-3.
Heppner split with Imbler 15-10,
14-16, and Hermiston 15-12, 6-
15. Although Heppner and Her
miston had identical eight and
two win-loss records, (Hermiston
also split with Riverside) Her
miston was awarded the first
place trophy based on points
allowed.
Coach Terri Gentry was pleased
with her team's efforts. "They
had back row hits and good kills
- everyone played well."
Along with bringing home the
second place team trophy, two
Mustangs were named to the All-
Tournament team. Seniors Annie
Hisler and Mindy Binschus
received tournament All-Star
medals.
The John Day Junior Varsity
tournament included eight teams
divided into two pools. Each
team played two games against
every other team in their pool.
The two teams with the best win-
loss record in each pool then
advanced to bracket play.
In pool play Heppner dropped
both games to Grant Union, 6-15,
9-15, then came back to beat
both Dayville, 15-10, 15-1 Land
Prairie City, 15-7, 15-11. Grant
Union came out of pool play in
first place with a 5-1 record.
lone High School’s football
team kicked off their 1997 sea
son with a 24-12 loss to the
Wallowa Cougars Friday night,
Sept. 5.
Despite the game being held on
lone’s home turf, the Cougars
were too tough for the Cardinals,
lone received the opening kick
off and Dan Scott returned it to
the lone 40 yard line. From there
the Cougar defense took control
with 16 points in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, lone’s
Jake McElligott had a 45 yard
interception return for a touch
down for the only touchdown in
the half for lone.
In the third quarter, McElligott
had an 18 yard pass from his
brother, Mark M cElligott, to
score for lone. The Cougars
didn’t score in the second half.
In the fourth quarter, neither
team scored, which left lone with
the loss.
“Even though we lost, it didn’t
feel like a loss,” said coach Robin
Graff. "The kids gave 100 percent
and did everything they were
asked to do. We came up short
inside the 10 a couple o f times.
We think we played an excellent
game. Even though we lost, it was
a confidence builder for us.”
Defensively Marc Orem had
three sacks and many tackles.
Jake McElligott had two intercep
tions with one run back for a
touchdown. “O ffensively, we
threw the ball well," Graff added.
lo n e ’s next game will be
Thursday, Sept. 11 at 2 p.m. at
Sherman High School, against the
Culver JVs.

The varsity Mustang netters
received a wake up call on
Thursday, September 4, from the
lone Cardinals, losing in two
games, 11-15, 15-17. The loss
was
disappointing
with
Heppner's lead squad serving a
dismal 71 percent, but the
Mustangs displayed good move
ment on the court and had several
long rallies.
Annie Hisler, Jill Barber and
Janelle Healy shared the setting
duties, while a trio of senior
giants, Petra Elguezabal (5'10"),
Mindy Binschus (5'9") and Lexi
Matteson (5'11") worked at
blocking the even taller lone
team. Although the Heppner
squad looked pretty serious and
had some trouble handling lone's
attack they will soon gel and be a
force to be reckoned with in the
CBC.
The junior varsity volleyball
gals quickly dealt a loss to the
Cards, winning in two games,
Worship Service at 3 p.m.
Meeting* in th e 7th -d ay A d v en tist C h urch
560 North Minor
15-8, 15-10. The JVs' service
success was 85 percent for the
match and they rarely sent a
"free" ball over. This team is
laced with able setters which
produced several kills for an
exciting match.
The C team came out strong,
winning the first game, 15-7.
They were unable to maintain
their momentum, though, and
lost the next two games, 6-15, 8-
15. Once they get some of their
kinks worked out this team will
win some games. Their service
game went well with an 84
percent success.
The Mustang volleyball squads
plan to knock a few feathers off
the Cardinals when they travel to
lone on Thursday, September 11,
for a rematch.
