Clayton came out with no experience and learned what it feels like to win the first time he stepped on the mat. He simply outworked his opponent and pinned him in the third round when the score was 9-10. It was an exciting match. The whole team was on their feet cheering for him.” O ther M ustangs picking up first of the sea son wins were sophomores Jacob M oore and Earl Propheter. “With only one se nior and two juniors, this was a tough tournament to start the season,” Coach Lemmon went on to say, “but I was very pleased with the composure and attitude of every one of our wres tlers. We will only get better as the season progresses.” The Mustangs next compete Friday and Satur day at the largest annual w restling tournam ent in Eastern Oregon, the Muil- lenberg Tournament in La Grande. Lady Cards kick off basketball season T he lo n e Lady Cardinals kicked off their 2010-2011 campaign with a weekend split at their home tournament, the lone Basketball Bonanza. The Cards didn’t look like a team playing their first game of the new season, especially a team dealing with an abbreviated practice schedule due to volleyball success and snow days. The team moved the ball well and kept the turn overs to a manageable level, actually tallying more steals (18) than turnovers (17) in the contest. Playing River side, the Cards never trailed in the game, taking a 12-9 first quarter lead and build ing it to a 23-13 halftime lead. The Lady Cards were able to keep that same 10 point cushion until late in the fourth. Riverside closed the gap to a seven point margin midway through the fourth but lone held on for the 36-28 win. S h ad o w K e n d rick led all scorers with 14 points.
