Mustang JV girls lose
to Stanfield Tigers
By Molly Rhea
The Tiger JV girls team
pounced onto the Mustang's back
and refused to shaken off, as
Stanfield came up with their only
victory over Heppner on
Saturday, January 31.

after a quarter, then dug in and
extended their edge to 13 points,
29-16, at the half. Although the
Heppner squad only allowed the
Tigers another 15 points, their
first half lead proved to more
than enough and the Mustangs
went down 35-44.
Ashley Ropp led the Heppner
scorers with 11 points, followed
by Kathleen Greenup with nine.
Jessica Maben pulled down eight
rebounds to lead the Mustangs on
the boards.

Chris Anthony hit a jump shot at
the buzzer to give the Mustangs a
24-23 lead at halftime
The third quarter was back and
forth with the Tiger-Scots
holding a 39-37 lead at the end.
A three-point play by
Dickenson to start the fourth
gave the Mustangs a 40-39 lead,
th e Tiger-Scots regained the
l{ad and kept it through the end
of the game. Anthony hit a put
back shot off a rebound to pull
the Mustangs to within two, 50-
48 with 1:35 left. The Mustangs
were forced to foul and the
Tiger-Scots' Matt Rainwater hit
four straight to put the game out
of reach. Dickenson hit a shot at
the end to make the final score
55-50.
The Mustangs were led by
Dickenson with 20 points and 17
rebounds. Anthony finished with
11 points, including one three-
