Colts drop last two games
Mustangs blank Huskies, 39-0 for homecoming win
By Rick Paullus
The Heppner Mustangs got a
homecoming win in the mud over
the Sherman County Huskies, 39-
0, on Friday, Oct. 20, in Columbia
Basin Conference football. The
win improves the third-ranked
Mustangs’ record to 5-0 in the
CBC and 6-1 overall.
The Heppner game against
Stanfield on Friday, Oct. 27, has
been cancelled. The Mustangs will
play Umatilla on Friday, Nov. 3 at
home.
The Mustangs took over at the
Huskies’ 49 after a short punt and
were faced with a third and long
after Chuy Elguezabal slipped in
the mud on a pass attempt. Stefan
Matheny went around end for 20
yards and a first down at the 37
to keep the drive going. Craig
Scott went for five and Michael
McCabe went for eight more and
a first down. After a loss, Joe
Papineau made a diving catch of
an Elguezabal pass for 21 yards
to the four yard line. McCabe
picked up one to set up a three
yard run by Scott for a touchdown.
Blake Knowles kicked the extra
point for a 7-0 lead with 3:49 left
in the first.
Knowles sent the kick-off
through the end zone for a touch-
back, and, after the defense held,
the Mustangs took over at the
Sherman County 19 after a one
yard punt. On third and 10,
Knowles caught a 19 yard touch
down pass from Elguezabal, then
kicked the extra point for a 14-0
lead at the end of the first quar
ter.
The Huskies put together their
best drive of the game on their
next series, but Brad Adams in
tercepted a pass at the Mustang
22 to end the drive.
Elguezabal picked up two and
Adams five before M cCabe
broke free for 27 yards to get into
Huskies’ territory. After an incom
plete pass, McCabe picked up four
and Scott took a short pass from
Elguezabal for 14 yards. Scott
then went for 21 to the four yard
line. Scott then went for two to
set up a one yard run for McCabe
for a touchdown. The kick was
no good and the Mustang led 20-
0 midway through the second
quarter.
The Mustangs took over at
their own 45 after the defense
held the Huskies on fourth down.
Matheny picked up 25 yards on a
pass but a clip brought it back for
only a five yard gain. McCabe
rushed twice for 10 yards and a
first down at the 40. Scott went
for 18 more, getting a good block
from Knowles. McCabe went for
five but the Mustangs lost three
on a fumble to make it third and
eight from the 20. Knowles then
took a hand-off on a double re-
verse for a touchdown. After the
kick failed, the Mustangs led 26-0
at halftime.
The Mustangs took over at
their own 30 after the second half
kick-off and McCabe went for 11
after a first down to get the drive
started. Matheny ran for six, then
Scott ran twice for five yards and
another first down. Matheny went
for eight and McCabe got six more
for another first down. After an
offsides penalty and an incomplete
pass, Matheny caught a six yard
pass from Elguezabal. Scott
picked up eight and Adams went
for three more and a first down at
the 10 yard line. Matheny then
completed a 10 yard pass to
McCabe for a touchdown. The
kick was no good and the Mus
tangs led 32-0.
The defense forced another
punt and Scott picked up good
blocks from McCabe and
Knowles and went 32 yards to the
25 of Sherman County. The Mus
tangs were unable to move the ball
and the Huskies took over at their
own 20.
The defense again held and the
Mustangs took ever at their own
34 after a long punt return was
brought back by a clip. Matheny
went for 13 and McCabe seven,
but a clip took the ball back to the
19. Knowles then picked up 44
yards on a pass from Matheny.
The offense stalled and the Hus
kies took over at their own 49 af
ter a punt.
The Heppner defense held
though and took over at the Husky
49. Scott took a screen pass from
Matheny for 13 yards. Things then
got a little crazy as a hold on a
long gain, an unsportsmanlike con
duct penalty and another hold on
another long run moved the ball
back to the 43 of the Mustangs.
McCabe picked up 11 yards on a
pass from Matheny and Adams
went for 11 more, but it wasn’t
enough as the Huskies took over
at their own 37.
Elguezabal then picked off a
long pass at the 34 of the Mus
tangs. A fumbled pitch lost seven,
but Scott went for 15, then four
more and a first down. McCabe
went for four to midfield to set up
a 50 yard pass from Matheny to
Papineau for a touchdown.
Knowles’ kick was good to make
it 39-0 late in the game.
Adams led the defense with 19
defensive points, including an in
terception. Scott got 16 points.
Matt Baker and Travis Bellamy
had strong games on the line and
had 12 defensive points each.
Knowles had 10 points and
McCabe and Elguezabal each had
nine defensive points.
The Mustangs had a balanced
offensive attack, rushing for 243
yards and passing for another 192.
