A strong running gam e and a
stifling defense helped the Heppner
Ponies to a 46-0 win over the visiting
Umatilla Vikings on Friday, Sept.
28, to improve their record to 2-0-1
on the year. The Ponies will play
at Pendleton on Thursday, Oct. 4,
in their next action.
The Ponies took an 8-0 lead after
the first quarter on a six-yard run
and two-point conversion by Matt
Kenny.
A huge second quarter turned
the game into a rout as Kyle Carlson
opened the quarter with a seven-yard
touchdown run with Kenny again
running in the two-point conversion.
On the Ponies' next possession,
Quinn Peck took his turn with a five-
yard run to make it 22-0. Carlson
then intercepted a Vikings' pass to
set up a M atthew Van Cleave run
o f 38 yards on a reverse for a
touchdown.
The
two-point
conversion again failed and the score
was 28-0.
One o f the w ackier plays
happened on the ensuing kick-off
as a high kick by Peter Geer bounced
o ff the chest and face mask o f the
Vikings' returner and went high into
the air; it was caught by Geer at the
V ikings' 34-yard line.
Peck com pleted a fourth-down
pass to Carlson for a 25-yard
touchdown. Van Cleave caught the
conversion pass to make it 36-0 at
halftime.
The Ponies took the kick-off and
marched down the field with Peck
capping off the dn ve with an 11 -yard
run for the touchdown. Carlson ran
in the two-point conversion to make
it 44-0.
The Ponies' final points came late
in the game when a bad snap on a
punt was recovered by the Vikings
for a safety.
The defense was led by Geer and
Gordon Wegworth at tackles and
Aaron Allstott at noseguard, Van
Cleave and Rory Kilkenny at ends
and linebackers Kenny, Carlson and
Sloan Keithley. Casey Maben and
Kody Lovgren had good games at
comer and Justin Gregory at safety.

Boardman raises over $3,500 for disaster fund
The Boardm an C ham ber o f
Commerce, the Boardm an Rural
Fire Protection District and the
Umatilla Chapter o f the American
Red Cross raised over $3,500 Sept.
27 collecting funds for the Sept.
11 disaster in New York,
Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania.
"The whole scene was very
patriotic with the fire department's
ladder truck raised to its full height
with an enormous Am erican flag
hanging over Main Street," said a
spokesperson.
The American Red Cross IRV
mobile was there as well as other
fire fighting apparatus. Armed with
their fire boots, used to collect the
money, firefighters spent the day
stopping traffic, dispensing smiles
and expressing gratitude to those
who donated to help the country's
fallen heroes.
Other donations came in the form
o f people stopping by the Red Cross
table and giving money there. One
young man came with his fish bowl
o f money he'd been collecting. It
had $60 in it and all the young man
asked was to have his fish bowl be
returned when the volunteers were
done counting his donation.
Many donors that day expressed
their gratitude in having the local
fund drive as they had not yet had
an opportunity to donate elsewhere.
Dana Follett o f the Umatilla
Chapter o f the American Red Cross
was pleased with the collected
am ount o f $3,551. She said 100
percent o f the funds will go to the
disaster relief back east.
C h ief Marc Rogelstad o f the
Boardm an Rural Fire Protection
District issued a challenge to all area
fire departments to "meet or beat"
the am ount collected by his
volunteers.
"Boardman showed its true colors
that day; they are red, white and
blue," said a spokesperson for the
Boardman Chamber o f Commerce,
who organized the event.
Those interested in contributing
to the American Red Cross may
contact the Umatilla County Chapter
in Pendleton by calling 276-1211.
