Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, September 17,1997 - FIVE
By Kara Miller
The lone Lady Cardinals are
playing tough volleyball against
very competitive teams. Their
pre-season has consisted of
Heppner, Wallowa and Pilot
Rock.
Opening up the year with
Heppner, Thursday, September 4,
the team had tense pre-game
jitters; however, the girls were
ready to play and it showed with
their enthusiasm on and off the
court. Coach Charity McElligott
has seniors Brenda Burright,
Kara Miller and Jenny Sullivan,
juniors Niki Sullivan and Katie
Tworek and sophomores Camie
Bumght and Nikki McElligott on
her varsity squad, and sopho
mores Enn Crowell and Brandi
Brantley floating between varsity
and JV. With Katie Tworek out
of action due to injury, Nikki
McElligott stepped into the back
row position while Kara Miller
and Brenda Burright shared
setting duties.
lone's noisy birds averaged 98
percent serving as a team with
Camie Bumght, Brenda Burright
and Kara Miller hitting 100
percent from behind the line,
while Jenny and Niki Sullivan hit
99 percent for the match that
went two games but took almost
two hours to complete. Camie
Bumght
beat
out
Nikki
McElligott by one with 10
spikes, while Niki Sullivan had
seven and Kara Miller and Jenny
Sullivan each had six. The first
game ended 15-11.
The second game had the
Cards down 14 to 9 before they
picked up their momentum and
came back to win, 17-15. Both
games saw good volleys, player
communication and excellent
serving by the Cards.
Following the big night in
Heppner, the Lady Cardinals
hosted the Wallowa Cougars in
the Cardinal Roost on Friday
night, September 5. The Lady
Cards started off well, but due to
tired limbs and a very good
opponent,
lone's
smaller,
younger team was no match for
the powerful highly ranked cats
from Eastern Oregon, and lone
fell short in two.
lone kept their excellent
serving streak going but couldn't
capitalize with killing points.
Brenda Burright and Kara Miller
shared setting highs with 14 and
17 respectively, and Brenda and
Camie Bumght had four and five
blocks to their credit. Camie led
with seven spikes and Niki
Sullivan was right behind her
with six. The match went to two
games and the final scores were
8-15 and 6-15 in Wallowa's
favor.
The third pre-season match-up
had the Cardinals traveling to
Pilot Rock to take on the 2A
Rockets on Tuesday, September
9. Pilot Rock couldn't get their
game going in the first match and
lone won it, 15-1. With Brandi
Brantley stepping up to serve
seven points, Kara Miller, six,
and Brenda Bumght and Niki
Sullivan each scoring one, the
Cardinals
continued
their
excellent serving.
Erin Crowell and Jenny
Sullivan scored five and seven
points, with Brenda adding one
and Nikki McElligott, two, to
take the second match, 15-8.
Thursday, September 11,
Heppner came for a return match
against the Cardinals, meeting
them in lone. Again lone had
excellent serving from its
players, with Brenda Burright
scoring 13 points for the match
that went three games. Kara
Miller scored 10 points. Nikki
McElligott and Camie Burright
each had seven, Jenny Sullivan,
five, and Niki Sullivan, two, for
96 percent serving throughout.
Camie Bumght, Niki Sullivan
W eb
P ages
H eppner G aze pee
676-9228
and Nikki McElligott each had
seven spikes, and Miller led the
setting with 29, while Brenda
Bumght was right behind her
with 28. The scores were lone,
15-12, 16-18 and 15-9.
On Saturday September 13,
the varsity netters traveled to
Wahtonka for the Eagles' annual
tournament. Also competing
were the Condon Blue Devils,
Dufur Rangers and the hosts,
Wahtonka Eagles.
The first game put lone
against
the
always-strong
Rangers. The Cards were
uncustomarily quiet as they took
the floor and their serving was
lackluster compared to their
previous week's games. Nikki
McElligott scored seven points,
Camie Bumght and Jenny
Sullivan, two, and Kara Miller
and Niki Sullivan one for the 13-
15 loss.
The second game was not
much better for the Cards, with
Nikki
McElligott,
Brenda
Burright and
Niki Sullivan
making one point each, while
Jenny Sullivan and Camie
Burright scored three each and
Kara Miller just one for a game
score of 11-15.
lone faced the tough Big Sky
East Condon team in their second
pairing. Condon brought the
largest bench and substituted
frequently. The Cardinals began
to look and play more like their
noisy selves, but the serving still
lacked the power shown earlier
in the pre-season match-ups. lone
dispatched Condon 15-5 behind
Jenny Sullivan's eight points,
Brenda Burright's four, Niki
Sullivan's two and McElligott's
one.
In the second game of the set,
Condon picked up the tempo, but
lone pulled ahead to win it 15-
13. Niki Sullivan served three,
Kara
Miller,
six,
Nikki
McElligott,
two,
Brenda
Burright, three and Camie
Burright, one, for the win.
The third and final match was
against the 2A Eagles. By this
time, the Cards were loud and
raucous and took the floor
looking for the win and the
tournament first-place trophy.
Erin Crowell stepped up and put
the first two points on the board
for lone and they were on their
way to a 15-4 win. Jenny
Sullivan scored three, while Niki
Sullivan and Kara Miller each
added one. McElligott hit a
streak and scored six in a row for
a total of eight from her and put
over the win.
The second game was a
repeat, with a final score, 15-4, in
favor of lone. Brenda Bumght
went on a scoring spree this time
and put over seven in a row for a
total of eight for the game. Niki
Sullivan had three points, Jenny
Sullivan, two, Kara Miller and
Nikki McElligott, one, and the
tournament was over, with lone
declared the winner by a
tiebreaker.
Brenda Burright was one of
the six girls named to the All-
Tournament Team, along with
Molly Durfey from Condon,
Amanda Lindell and Amy
Sawyer from Dufur and Shawna
Kyar and Katie Lewis from
Wahtonka. This marks the first
time that lone has won the
tournament in the several years
they have been invited to
participate.
lone traveled to Echo to face
the Cougars on Tuesday, Sept.
16, then the Lady Cardinals will
travel to Maupin on Friday, Sept.
19, to play the South Wasco
County Redsides. The varsity
games will begin at 5 p.m.
JVs suffer
tough loss
By Rick Paullus
The Heppner M ustangs JV
football team started out their sea
son with a tough 12-8 loss at
home to the Weston-McEwen
TigerScots on Monday, Sept. 8.
After a scoreless defensive first
quarter, Weston-McEwen recov
ered a Mustang fumbled punt at
H eppner’s 19 yard line. The
TigerScots marched down to the
four yard line and scored on a run
ning play with 4:39 left in the half.
The conversion pass attempt
failed and Weston-McEwen led,
6 - 0 .
The Mustangs mounted a good
drive after the kick-off to take the
ball deep into TigerScot territory,
giving up the ball on downs.
Freshman Ryan Matteson com
pleted passes to freshman Nick
Anthony for first downs twice to
keep the drive going.
With 10 seconds left in the half,
freshman Craig Scott intercepted
a pass and returned it 65 yards for
a touchdown. Sophomore Clint
Bellamy ran the ball in for the two
point conversion and at halftime,
the Mustangs were ahead, 8-6.
In the third quarter, the Mus
tangs’ defense came up with a
goal line stand to keep Weston-
McEwen from scoring. Heppner
took over at their own one foot
line, but a fumble in the end zone
was recovered by the TigerScots.
The conversion pass attempt
failed and Weston-McEwen held
a 12-8 lead with 2:06 left in the
third quarter.
The M ustangs had a final
chance late in the fourth period
after M atteson recovered a
fumble near midfield. Scott car
ried the ball 15 yards for a first
down with about two minutes left.
The TigerScots held from there
and the M ustang^ last pass
completion came up short on a
questionable spot.
The Mustang JV'team played
the Wahtonka JV team on Mon
day, Sept. 15. Heppner will get a
chance for revenge at Weston-
McEwen on Monday, Sept. 22 at
5 p.m.
