Levi Geer (42) makes a dash for yardage
The Heppner Mustangs went to
the air to defeat the visiting
Weston-McEwen TigerScots, 34-
7, on Friday, Oct 2.
Sophomore quarterback Ryan
Matteson passed for four
touchdowns to three different
receivers for 248 yards. Filling in
for the injured Shane Matheny,
Matteson completed 15 of 27
passes after a shaky start.
The Mustangs received the
kick-off to start the game but
were forced to punt, pinning the
TigerScots back to their own 16-
yard line.
Senior defensive ends Casey
Evans and Tim Dickenson
combined to sack the quarterback
for a nine-yard loss to force a
punt by Weston-McEwen. A
short punt gave the Mustangs
good field position at the
TigerScots 26-yard line.
On first down Matteson kept
the ball on the option and picked
up 12 yards. On fourth down and

pass gave the ball to Weston

The lone Middle School
Cardinals played both North and
South
Sherman
in girls'
volleyball, which resulted in a
win-loss situation. This season's
opener was held Friday,
September 18.
The Cards first took on the
South Sherman Mustangs and,
within two matches, had a
smashing victory over the
Mustangs, 15-7, 15-4.
The Cards turned around
without rest and fought the
North Sherman Cougars. The
first match the Cougars came up
ahead, 15-11, but the Cards
picked up the pace in the second,
16-14, which led to a third
match. At the end of the
unexpected third match, the
Cougars came out ahead,
winning the game, 15-9.
"The sixth grade girls did very
well for their first game. We
could still use some practice and
hope to see what happens in the
next game at Arlington,"
commented the eighth graders.
