Mustangs the win over the Pan­

25-22 lead at halftime. The Mus­
tangs stretched the lead to 41-34
after three quarters of play and
hung on for the win.
The Mustangs were led by Tim
Dickenson’s 19 points and 14 re­
bounds. Chns Anthony had 12
points and 10 rebounds. Derek
Gunderson led the team with four
assists and two steals.
Against the Pirates, Gunderson
had given the Mustangs a 9-6 lead
with a three-pointer with 5:10 left
in the first quarter. The Pirates
then ran off 13 straight points to
take a 19-9 lead before freshman
Ryan Matteson hit a three-pointer
with 25 seconds left to make it 19-
12 after one. Kevin Baker hit for
16ofBoardman’s 19 points in the
quarter.
Gunderson then hit another
three-pointer to cut the lead to 19-
15 early in the second quarter.
Both teams played tough defense,
causing numerous turnovers and
missed shots for most of the quar­
ter. Matteson then hit another
three-pointer to cut the lead to 21 -
20 and Dickenson hit a lay-up af­
ter grabbing a rebound to give
Heppner a 22-21 lead with 1:00
to play in the first half. Neither
team was able to score and the
half ended with the Mustangs
leading by one.
The third period was a lot like
the second with good defense
played by both teams. G eoff
Camine of the Pirates hit two
three-pointers during the quarter
to give the Pirates a 33-29 lead.
Bias Elguezabal made a short bas­
ket to cut the lead to 33-31 at the
end of three.

fourth quarter hitting a jumper to
tie the score at 33. The Pirates

and the Pirates made another bas­
ket to give them a three point lead
before Dickenson hit on a three-
point play to tie the game at 39-

A Riverside free throw and a
rebound and put back by Baker

erside stretched the lead to 46-41
before Anthony hit two of three
free throws to make it 46-43 with
:29 left.

make it 49-43, but Anthony hit a
jumping, leaning three-pointer to
cut the lead to 49-46 with four
seconds left. The M ustangs
couldn’t come up with the steal
though, and two more free throws
made the final score 51 -46, giv­
ing the first place trophy to the
Pirates.
The Pirates remained unbeaten
at 7-0, while the Mustangs fell to
3-5 in the pre-season.

four three-pointers. Dickenson
ended up with nine points, seven
rebounds and three steals before
fouling out midway through the
fourth quarter. Matteson came off
the bench to hit three three-point­
ers and finish with nine points.

points and rebounders with 14.

It is hard to know where to be­
gin to say thank you to our friends
and neighbors for all of the sup­
port we have received over the
past few weeks. The cards, phone
calls, personal visits, prayers and
gifts of food have been greatly
appreciated. We would especially
like to recognize the efforts of the
lone EMTs.
Thanks also to everyone who
helped with the dinner after the
service. It was a true picture of
community spirit. It is obvious our
wife, mother and grandmother
touched many lives and we are
all touched by your remembrance
of her.

Dear Santa,
My curiosity was piqued to try
and discover your identity. I
wanted to show my appreciation
with a gift, but don’t have a clue
where to send it.
I want you to know what an
impact your thoughtful gesture
had on me. Sometimes daily life
seems so pointless and the battle
endless. That is where I was when
your card arrived. Your anonym­
ity makes me see everyone in a
new light. So while the gift itself
was useful and appreciated, the
gift of your encouragement and
support was far more valuable.
The kids used theirs for Christ­
mas shopping and I’m going to use
mine to buy myself new clothes.
So, whoever you are, thank you
for your generosity and thought­
fulness and the gift of hope I re­
ceived as a result. If anyone read­
ing this doubts his existence, yes,
there really is a Santa Claus.
The happiest of New Years to
you, Santa.
