The Condon Blue Devils over powered the lone Cardinals 52- 28 during lone’s homecoming game, Friday, Oct. 17. lone began the game with the ball but was forced to punt, which led to a 40 yard touchdown run by Condon’s Brad Camine.

H eppner playing 13 girls strong in the match, displayed why they sport a 14-0 record. “Unselfish play, talent and deter- rmnation carry this team of girls through their games each week.

Brooke Boyer, no. 1 setter- server, set the tone with setting and 6-6 service attempts. Ashley Mustangs blast Rockets By Molly Rhsa Pilot Rock rocketed over to Heppner on Tuesday, October 14, and the Mustang net squads blasted them right back over the hill as all three of the home-girl teams won their matches. The C team started out the evening o f volleyball action winning their match 7-15, 15-6, 15-8. The Heppner C's hadn't had a match since September 30 and it was evident in die opening game, as they looked a little flat. The C's had trouble just getting the ball over the net, both with serving and returns, and ended up dropping the first game, 7-15. In game two Heppner managed to switch off the Rockets' boosters for good. Krista Adams started off the game with an ace and the young Mustangs were off and running to a 6-0 lead. Maja Dietiker had four kills to lead the attack and the Mustangs won , 15-6. The third game was like a continuation of the prior. The C's allowed Pilot Rock's first server to score one point, then the Mustangs' Beth Baker went behind the service line to score points one through six to put the home team out front for good. Heppner was up 13-4 when the Rockets tried to fire up, but the charged up C's quickly quenched the flames and took the game and the match, 15-8. Serving 100 percent for the match were Dietiker, 9/9, Lindsey Ward, 9/9, Macy Rhea, 1/1, while Baker went 10/11 and Marissa McCabe was 4/5. Strong net play was displayed by Ward, Amanda Sneddon and Juanita Elguezabel. The JVs grabbed up their reins and never let go as they defeated the Rockets, 15-4, 15-13. Brooke Boyer started out by serving up the first three points and the Mustangs never looked back as they raced to a 15-4 win. Casey Ingraham was relentless in the first game as she went 100 percent from behind the service line (4/4) and had nine hits on nine attempts with five kills. The score was tied up at three apiece in the second game when Kathleen Greenup stepped back and scored points four through 11. With consistent serving and strong net play the Mustangs were up 13-4, then 14-5. Then the next twelve Mustangs served for game point. It was drawn out to watch, but the team looked like they were having a great time as they repeatedly dug out the hits and set up the hitters, but the JVs just couldn't seem to put a lid on the game. The girls definitely got in some playing time and finally took the game, 15-13. The JVs served 81 percent for the match. One hundred percent serving efforts were contributed by Allison Sykes, 8/8, Amy Papineau, 5/5, and Ingraham, 4/4, while Greenup went 10/11.

The Heppner varsity team hardly gave the Rockets a chance to rev their engines as they knocked them off in two quick games, 15-5, 15-3. The Mustangs maintained their high intensity attack in spite of a Pilot Rock team that was missing their core players. Heppner used only six servers (one complete rotation) to win game one with 100 percent service success. Game two was almost as quick as the Mustangs continued to pound the Rockets. Heppner went 20/22 from behind the service line in the second game, a 95 percent service success for the match. Mustangs contributing 100 percent serve success include Jill Barber, 9/9, Jessie VanWinkle, 6/6, Brooke Boyer, 5/5, Linsey Ropp, Jaci Hughes, Jayme Hansen and Annie Hisler, all 3/3, Amber Peck and Casey Ingraham, 2/2, while Mindy Binschus and Petra Elguezabal served 1/1. Smashing the leather to the hardwood for the Mustangs were Hisler who successfully hit six for six attempts with five kills, Lexi Matteson, 7/9 with five kills, Elguezabal, 5/7 with four kills and Binschus, 2/3 with two kills. Janelle Healy made several good passes to set up the hitters. Setting duties for the match were shared by Hisler, Barber, Boyer and Hansen. "I was pleased with our intensity tonight," said Coach Terri Gentry. "Sometimes it's difficult to maintain a high aggression level when playing a team that isn't very challenging. Our girls really kept up their mental game tonight." Come Share With Us At W ill ow C reek B a p tist C k urck W orship Service at 3 p.m .
