The Heppner Mus­
tang track team traveled to
Boardman on April 10 for
only their second track meet
of the year. The Carnival of
Speed, which was due to be
held April 2, was canceled
due to inclement weather.
This was the Mustangs first
time on the track in a little
over three weeks.
The time off didn’t
seem to hurt the Mustangs,
however. The girls’ team
scored 109.5 and earned
first place. The boys’ team
earned second place while
scoring 60 points. Many
athletes had outstanding
times and distances.
Erin Price led the
Mustangs with two individ­
ual wins in the 100 hurdles
and 300 hurdles, and sec­
ond place in the 200 meters.
Brynna Rust finished a
close second behind Price
in both the 100 hurdles and
300 hurdles. Price, Rust,
Catherine McElligott and
Emilie Anderson ran on
the first place 4x400 relay
team. Rust also ran a leg
on the third place 4x100
relay team. Emilie Ander­
son excelled in the jumps -
earning second place in the
long jump and third in the
triple jump. Alana Wilson
recorded a district-best time
in winning the 400 meters,
and Catherine McElligott
finished a close second in
the 800 meters. Other plac­
ers: Jodessa Chapa - 6th in
1500 and 3000; Lea Hein
- S“1 in 3000; Carrie Hague-
wood - 7th in triple jump
and high jump; and Kelsi
Putman - 5th in 200.
Jordan Hatfield re­
corded three individual
titles in the triple jump, 110
hurdles, and 300 hurdles.
Hatfield, David Bertsen,
Conner Pappas and Lau
Hortoft finished second in
the 4x 100 meter relay. Hor­
toft raced to a third place
finish in the 400 meters.
Pappas earned two 8th place
finishes in the 100 and 200
meters. Jared Hedman fin­
ished sixth and Seth Palmer
eighth in the 1500. Jordan

Students performed the Broadway musical,
“Godspell Junior”, the weekend of Easter at lone Com­
munity Church. Godspell opened on Broadway in May
of 1971 and is a series of parables based on the Gospel
of Mathew set to a variety of modem music.
Directors, Rev. Lea Mathieu and Rev. Stacy Shel­
ton, began working with volunteer students in grades 2-8
in February in preparation for this performance. Students
met up to twice a week for rehearsal, memorized music
and line and hosted two performances.
“We have some very talented young people in our
community,” said Rev. Mathieu. “It was a treat for us to
help guide these students in this recital.”
The main character for the event was Jesus
Christ, played by Emily Holland. All students had musi­
cal interludes, solo’s and memorized acts that lead into
a standing ovation from the audience. The directors are
already preparing for a performance for next year.
