FOUR - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, February 8,2012 Lady Cards hold on to second place approaching districts The lone Lady Car dinals held on firmly to their second place spot in the Big Sky East with a split last week, losing a key match up on the road in Condon and coasting to a win at home against Echo. The Cardi nals’ record now stands at 14-4 on the season, 8-2 in the Big Sky Conference (BSC). In Condon on Janu ary 31, the Knights got out to a quick start, lead ing 14-6 at the end of one quarter, but the Cardinals came back and only trailed by 5, for a halftime score of 20-15. After the break, the Knights went on a scoring tear, outscoring lone 19-9 in the third, and held on for the 52-40 win. “This was another very physical game and we lost the rebound battle,” said Coach Mike Garrett. “That, along with a cold shooting night, was the dif ference in the game. Con don is a very good team and every time we play them we find out something that we can work on and improve. With the win, they secured the Big Sky East #1 seed and we will hopefully get a chance to play them at Districts.” Jo A n n a P a tto n was the Cardinals’ leading scorer with 14, and Shadow Kendrick had 10. On Friday, Febru ary 3, the Cardinals got a slow start against Echo but quickly turned a 10-10 first quarter tie into a 33-14 half-time lead. The Cards lengthened the lead to 45- 20 before coasting home to the 55-39 win. “ We played very well against Echo,” said Coach Garrett. “We had 12 turnovers (season low) and the second quarter was one of the best quarters that we have played all year. The team is starting to come together, and I hope that we are getting ready to peak at the right time. We have a busy week to finish out the regular season and I think that is going to help us go ing into Districts.” Shadow Kendrick notched a double-double with 17 points and 14 re bounds. Lacey Thompson added 11 points, lone 55, Echo 39 Echo (7-13, 5-5 BSCL’Rachael Round, 11; Katelyn Elligsen, 10; Evan- Mustang boys set for districts The Heppner High basketball teams traveled to Enterprise last Friday to play the Outlaws. The Mustangs girls’ varsity team played great defense and held the score even at half-time. The Out laws then came out hot in the third quarter to take the lead by six points going into the final quarter. Good free- throw shooting by Heppner as a team (13-18) and Carrie Haguewood’s eight for nine from the stripe made it close at the end o f regulation. Although they ultimately gave up the victory, losing 50-47 to the Outlaws, the Mustangs controlled the boards and played well as a team. The boys’ varsity beat the Outlaws 55-50 in a hard-won game in Enter prise. The game was up for grabs in the fourth quarter, but Heppner came away with the needed win. In the second set of Heppner varsity basketball team members (L-R): Cam Day (1), Aidan Wright (2), Jake Bowles (24), Justin Bailey (4), Stephen Thompson (3), Justin Franger (11), Cody Orr (23), JC Putman (0), Bryce Fowler (20), Kyle Harrison (12) and Garret Robinson (5) with coach Jeremy Rosenbaum and as sistant coach Ken Grieb. -Photo by Sandy Matthews games during their week- end road trip, the Mustangs stopped in Elgin to play the Huskies.
