hit 3/3 with one kill. Amber Peck
was 1/2 with one kill, Janelle
Healy tipped 1/1 for a kill and
combined for a block, while Jaci
Hughes hit 1/1.
In JV action the Mustangs
plucked and seared the fledgling
Eagles to deliver the win, 15-11,
15-5.
The young Mustangs looked a
little balky in game one,
suffering a few miscues to allow
the Eagles to sail to a 8-4 lead.
At that point Macy Rhea stepped
behind the service line to score
points five through 12, the
Mustangs bolted to the lead and
stayed there, winning 15-10.
In the second game the JV
Mustangs again lagged back
while the Eagles winged to a 4-0
lead. Kim Pointer used her turn
behind the service line to put the
Mustangs ahead 5-4, then after
the Wahtonka server netted one,
Kathleen Greenup iced the win
by scoring points six through 13.
The junior varsity went on to win
the game and the match, 15-5.
In this mostly service match
the JVs were 100 percent (19/19)
in the first game and went 18/21
(86 percent) in the second and 93
percent for the match.
This is a busy week of net
action as all three of the Heppner
teams saw action on Tuesday,
October 14, against the Pilot
Rock Rockets.
Sherman County will be in
town on Thursday, October 16,
for their rematch. The JV and C
team travel to La Grande on
Friday, October 17, to play
LaGrande's C teams.
On
Saturday, October 18, both
Umatilla and Stanfield come to
Heppner for another varsity
round robin.
Heppner will finish up their
regular season schedule on
Tuesday, October 21, by taking
on the second-place Tiger-Scots
in Athena. The Mustangs hope
to hang onto their undisputed
first place slot.
Columbia Basin Conference
league champions earn a bye for
the district tournament and
proceed directly to first round
state playoffs on November 1.
Teams earning second through
fourth place will compete on
Saturday, October 25, at Umatilla
for the opportunity to go into the
state playoffs in second place. If
two teams end the season tied for
first place, a playoff will be
scheduled prior to the district
tournament.
The Wahtonka Eagles swooped
into Heppner Thursday, October
9, in an attempt to dig their claws
into the Columbia Basin leading
Mustangs. Although at one point
it looked as though the Eagles
may have landed, the feisty
Mustang squad refused to be
used as a perch and came away
with the match, 14-16, 15-6,
15/10, to remain unbeaten in
CBC action.
Heppner played scrappy in
game one with Mindy Binschus,
Jill Barber, Jessica Van Winkle
and Petra Elguezabal working the
Eagles over at the net. The
Mustangs were up eight to three,
then 13 to nine, but just when
another victory looked to be in
the bam with a 14 to 10 lead, the
Eagles came flying back behind
the hitting of Katie Lewis to
snatch the win 16-14.
The Mustangs quickly got their
feet back underneath them for
game two, established the lead
and refused to relinquish it.
Heppner was ahead 6-2 when
VanWinkle went behind the line
to serve up points seven through
11; three of these efforts were
aces.
After a hard hitting
complete rotation the Mustangs
were leading 14 to six when
VanWinkle stepped up to ace
game point.
The tie-breaker was hard fought
and intense as the lead was
exchanged. While Annie Hisler
and Jill Barber were setting the
ball precisely, Lexi Matteson and
Casey Ingraham dominated the
net with kills and blocks. Just
witnessing the last rally of the
evening was worth the price of
admission as the ball was dug
out, passed, set and smashed
back and forth across the net
several times before the mighty,
mighty Mustangs took the game,
15-10, and the match to remain
in sole possession of the number
one slot in the CBC.
"This was a great match for us,"
said coach Tern Gentry. "They
(Wahtonka) played tough, and
we were able to up our intensity
to take the win."
The Mustangs demonstrated a
consistent 94 percent serving
success for the match. Flawless
from behind the line were
Elguezabal serving 10/10 and
Jaci Hughes, 4/4, while Barber
served 18/19 and Van-Winkle
went 14/15.
The hitting was hot throughout
die lineup. Matteson successfully
hit 14 for 16 with seven kills,

"Thcrese: The Story of a
Soul", a new live drama written
and produced by award-winning
actor and director Leonardo
Defilippis, will be presented as
dinner theater at St. Patrick's
Parish Hall in Heppner on
Sunday, October 26. Dinner will
begin at 5 p.m., and the drama
will follow.
The life of Saint Therese of
Lisieux would had remained
buried in obscurity if she had not
written down her own story
before dying of tuberculosis at
the age of 24 in a French
monastery in 1897.
Her
autobiography quickly circulated
around the wold, and her simple
spirituality touched the hearts of
millions, making this hidden
Carmelite sister one of the most
beloved saints of all time.
This 90-minute drama, with an
original orchestral score, is on its
debut national tour, presented by
Saint Luke Productions of
Beaverton. It features Maggie
Mahrt in the title role of an
ordinary middle-class girl who
enters a convent at the age of 15.
"She discovers a way of life
based on humility and simple
trust in the mercy of God. Her
honest, direct spirituality speaks
powerfully to our busy modem
age," said a news release.
This is the first one-woman
drama produced by Leonardo
Defilippis, who has delivered
more than 1,200 one-man
performances to audiences of
more than 325,000 people in the
United States, Canada and
Europe.
Defilippis, trained as a
Shakespearean actor, founded
Saint Luke Productions in 1980.
Since then, the company has
produced seven live religious
dramas and five videos that have
been broadcast worldwide, and
received awards in the New
York, Chicago and Cascade Film
Festivals.
The drama is suitable for ages
10 and up.
Admission and
dinner is $7 for an individual or
$20 for a family. Tickets are
available at Murray's Drug Store
and the Morrow County Abstract
office and from the Rev. Gerry
Condon.

The third annual Fall into
Winter bazaar was held last
Saturday, October 11, from 11
a m. to 3 p.m. at the lone Legion
Hall.
The bazaar, which funds the
Jason Halverson Memorial
Scholarship, is organized by
Cathy Halverson and Jannie
Allen of lone. Seventy-five to
100 people in the community
donate baked goods and crafts to
sell and several people also
donated their time to help out
during the bazaar.
Isa Brown of lone donated a
quilt which was handmade at the
Berthold Indian Reservation
located in North Dakota. Laurel
Cannon arranged an antique glass
section.
Shelly Rietmann
arranged a soup lunch. Ron
Neighom played the guitar and
sang.
The Fall into Winter bazaar is
known by the volunteers as "the
fastest bazaar in the west",
referring to the first hour in
which almost all of the crafts and
baked goods had been bought.
Cathy Halverson, organizer, is
appreciative of all the support
she has received from the
community. "Everybody's really
good about helping and without
everybody's
donations
and
support I don't think that this
bazaar could work," said
Halvorsen. "Jannie Allen does a
lot of work and without her, we
couldn't do this."
The lone youth group helped in
the kitchen, selling raffle tickets,
taking money and helping with
anything that needed to be done.
Many of the people who
attended the bazaar were amazed
at the efficiency of the event.
Jen McElligott, who volunteered
her time at the bazaar, said, "I
can't believe how hard Jannie,
Cathy and Laurel work on this.
It's nice to live where people are
so willing to pitch in and donate
things."
The bazaar was, without a
doubt, a success. At 12:30 p.m.
the Legion Hall was almost bare.
The volunteers breathed a sigh of
relief as they looked over the few
crafts that were left. The kitchen
was out of soup and had only a
few pies remaining to sell. But
all were satisfied with the fact
that the community helped them
immensely, yet they were now
able to give something back.
