lone Cards JV girls lose in homecoming games
lone Jvs in action against Condon
By K a ra Miller
The lone JV volleyball team
came out to do some destruction,
but found the Condon Blue Dev
ils’ JV team was equal to the task.
The first game consisted of many
rallies, ending in lone’s favor, 16-
14, but lone lost the next two
games, 3-15 and 5-15, and the
match.
Jennifer Thompson and Erin
Crowell both had serves on the
C ardinal side o f the board.
Allison Halvorsen was a double
threat, both on the net and the
back row. Halvorsen put in three
spikes and received 14 serves, for
the offensive line. Jessica Krebs
added a couple of saves to help
Chanssa Gates set up some assists
for the front line. Another shin
ing star that night was Crowell
who put up six points with her
awesome serves. Even though the
girls didn’t come out with the win,
they were positive and very hard
working.
The JV team will travel to Cul
ver on Saturday, Oct. 25, to play
right after the varsity game that
starts at noon.
Mustang varsity, JVs defeat Sherman County
The Heppner High School
varsity volleyball team's first
game against Sherman County
Thursday, Oct. 16, was a tough
one for the Mustang girls. They
lost to the Huskies, 15-6, in the
first game, but the Mustangs
turned the tables in the second
and third games and defeated the
Huskies, 15-4, 15-4, to take the
match. The large and enthusiastic
Mustang crowd added to the
excitement of the game, their last
home match of the season.
Jill Barber served 16 out of 19
for the game. Jaci Hughes was
perfect in serving for 7/7 and
Jessica Van Winkle served nine
out of 10. Annie Hisler made
eight out of 10 serves;
Elguezabal made six out of eight
serves; Amber Peck, four out of
five; and Lexi Matteson 1/2.
"The girls had problems in the
first game," said varsity coach
Tern Gentry. "But they turned it
around and showed that they
have a lot of guts. The came back
Next CRP signup scheduled
Conservation Reserve Program
(CRP) general sign-up 16 will be
held during a five-week period
from October 14 through
November 14.
"This will be another
opportunity for landowners to
sigh’ iff/ fbr a voluntary program
to get financial and technical
assistance for improving their
land,
water
and
wildlife
resources," Skip Matthews said.
"If you haven't tried to get into
the program, if your CRP
contract offers were not accepted
with the 68,539.6 Morrow
County contract acres (a 71
percent acceptance rate) in sign
up last spring, or if you have
contracts expiring this fall, this is
the time to make new contract
offers."
The CRP is designed to
improve
America's
natural
resource base. Landowners enter
into
contracts
with
the
Commodity Credit Corporation
(CCC) to enroll erodible and
other environmentally sensitive
land in contracts for 10 to 15
years. In exchange, they receive
annual rental payments and a
payment for up to 50 percent of
the cost of establishing approved
practices.
The CCC will continue to
evaluate and rank all eligible
CRP
offers
using
an
Environmental Benefits Index
(EBI), which is based on the
potential environmental benefits
from enrolling the land in the
CRP. The EBI is composed of
six
environmental
factors
(wildlife habitat cover benefits,
water quality benefits, on-farm
benefits of reduced erosion,
benefits enduring beyond the
contract period, air quality
benefits,
and
conservation
priority areas) plus a cost factor.
Included in the cost factor is a
provision to bid less than the
maximum rental rate and receive
additional points up to a
maximum of 15.
The EBI's wildlife habitat
cover benefits factor is revised
since the last sign-up to
recognize the improved wildlife
benefits attributable to certain
covers. The air quality factor is
also modified, and an additional
subfactor is added to the cost
factor to further encourage the
CRP's cost competitiveness.
Maximum CRP payments will
be determined based on county
average dryland cash or cash rent
equivalent rental rates adjusted
for site-specific, soil-based
productivity factors.
CRP
payments can include an
additional amount, not to exceed
$5 per acre per year, as an
incentive to perform certain
maintenance obligations. Cost-
share assistance will be provided
to establish approved cover on
land enrolled in the CRP.
Interested producers and
landowners should contact the
