Travis Wilhelm
By Gerry Steele
Of the Baker City Herald
The East entered the 1998
East-West
Shrine All-Star
Football Game with a highly-
touted passing game. And, when
the lights were turned out in
Bulldog Memorial Stadium
Saturday evening, the West had
found out why.
Five East quarterbacks com
bined to complete 24 of 44
passes for 387 yards and four
touchdowns to hand the West a
34-6 defeat in the 46th annual
classic held to raise money for
the Shriners Hospital for
Children in Portland.
Manst’s Bucky Rivera and On
tario's Mike Peterson did most of
the damage for the East. Rivera
drew the starting assignment and
completed 14 of 24 passes for
208 yards and one touchdown.
Peterson, the Class 3A player
of the year while leading Ontario
to the state championship,
completed 2 of 2 passes for 73
yards and a pair of scores.
Peterson, who spent most of the
evening at a receiver position,
also caught eight passes for 90
yards.
North Valley's Brad Kudlac
was the East's big-play receiver,
snaring three passes for 113
yards and two touchdowns.
The East used a bit of razzle
dazzle to score its first
touchdown with 5:47 left in the
first quarter.
Facing a third-and-8 on the
West 27, Rivera took the snap
and handed the ball off to
Kudlac sweeping to the left end.
Kudlac in turn handed the ball to
Peterson going the other way on
a reverse.
But, the trickery didn't stop
there. Peterson spotted South
Umpqua's Dane Williams down
field and fired a 27-yard TD
strike. Jeff Scott of Bonanza
added the conversion kick.
The East's second score, with
2:18 left in the first period, also
came on an apparent fluke play.
After recovering a West
fumble on the East 42, the East
needed just five plays to score.
This time, Peterson found
Kudlac on a 46-yard TD aerial.
Kudlac took the ball in stride on
the left sideline, broke two
tackles while cutting across the
field and scooted in for the
score.
Ironically, the pass wasn't in
tended for Kudlac. Peterson
actually was throwing the ball to
Baker tight end Dan Scnvner,
who was also open about five
yards in front of Kudlac. But the
ball sailed over Scnvner's head
and into Kudlac's hands.
"I think it was supposed to
have been for me," Scnvner said
moments later on the sidelines,
confirming what an East
assistant coach told him as the
offense came off the field
"That's OK, we scored. That's
the main thing," Scnvner said.
The conversion kick was
missed, leaving the East on top
13-0.
The East increased its lead to
21-0 with 3:36 left in the first
half, and again Peterson played a
key role.
After taking over on its own
49, the East mounted a 10-play
scoring drive.
Greg Grant
Peterson did the honors on a 1 -
yard plunge which wasn't as
easy as it might sound. Sliding
in at quarterback, Peterson first
bounced off a pack of players in
the center of the line. He then
rolled off the pack and dove into
the end zone off right tackle.
Jared Lewis of Wallowa scored
the two-point conversion on a
fake PAT kick.
The West mounted its lone
scoring drive following the
ensuing kickoff. Starting on its
own 29 the West needed 12
plays to score.
Santiam’s Aaron T homas did
the honors on a 2-yard run up
the middle. Thomas appeared to
be stopped twice, but second and
third effort produced the points.
The scoring drive was sparked
by Regis quarterback Bart
Bishop who completed 5 of 7
passes for 53 yards.
The East struck quickly to open
the second half, scoring seven
plays into the third quarter.
On the scoring play, Rivera
found Kudlac in stride wide
open in the center of the field for
a 42-yard TD connection.
Kudlac took the pass over his
shoulder without breaking stride
and raced untouched to the end
zone. Scott's PAT kick boosted
the East up 28-6.
The East finished the scoring
with 2:68 lett in the game when
Scott found Sweet Home's TNT
Nichols with a 3-yard scoring
toss.
The East finished the game
with 440 yards total offense, the
West 395.
J.C. Udey of South Wasco
County was the East's top rusher
with 31 yards on six carries.
Matt Benjamin of Tillamook
led the West ground game with
84 yards on 13 carries.
Caleb Robbins of Douglas
completed 6 of 11 passes for 97
yards for the West. Bishop was 9
of 23 for 96 yards. Tony Carley
of Monroe caught six passes for
77 yards.
The win was the fourth straight
and fifth in the past six games-
the teams tied in 1994-for the
East which now leads the overall
senes 22-21-3.

Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, August 19,1998 - FIVE
Travis Wilhelm was Heppner
High School's delegate to the
game and Greg Grant, Heppner
High School teacher and football
coach, was assistant coach for
the East.
"It was a fantastic week spent
with quality kids," said Grant.
"It was even more fun when they
all played so well and
experienced so much success.
Travis made several tackles
defensively at strong safety and
outside linebacker positions."
"It's a neat experience for a
coach to get to coach kids from
all over," added Grant. "I know
I'll run into them later in life."
