with even scoring. Joe
and Zane did an excellent
job moving the ball,” said
Coach Jim Swanson. “Our
defense against a high-
scoring Nixyaawii team
played out in the end.”

“This was probably
our best all-around game
of the year. The boys only
lost by one to a very strong
C/W/A team that beat us
the first time pretty easily. 1
am very proud of all of the
team, especially TJ, who

Local businesses reminded to
gear up for St. Pat’s
Aside from plenty of
fun activities for the whole
family, local businesses
also have special opportuni­
ties to get involved in the St.
Patrick’s Day celebration
this year.
There will be a trophy
awarded to one local busi­
ness that participates in this
year’s Great Green Parade.
This will be a roving trophy
and will change each year,
depending on the local busi­
ness winner. The trophy
was designed by Wood on
Wood and is sponsored by
Community Bank.
“We would love to have
great participation by our
local merchants and hope
you’ll consider being a
part of this year’s ‘Great
Green Parade’ on Saturday,
March 16,” says chamber
Executive Director Sheryll
Bates.
To enter the parade,
businesses or individuals
need to fill out a registra­
tion form and get it back
to the chamber office or to
Joe Perry at Bank of Eastern
Oregon no later than Friday,
March 8. Contact the cham­
ber with any questions at
541-676-5536.
Bates says the chamber
would also, once again, like
to see teams put together to
Cardinals fight hard but fall
short of state
compete for the Welly Toss
“Boot Trophy” March 16
during St. Patrick’s week­
end. The event will take
place from 10 a.m. till noon
on Willow Street, between
Murray’s and Artisan Vil­
lage.
Those who reg ister
teams are asked to put down
three preferred throw times
and, if they need to split up
their teams, also to make
a note of that. Teams are
also asked to make sure
they have a team captain
and put a contact number so
they can be notified of their
toss time.
The lone C ardinals
fought hard during districts
in Hermiston last weekend,
but both teams ended up
falling short of their state
championship dreams. The
boys’ basketball team lost
62-78 to Sherman on Feb.
14. Bailey Haguewood was
high scorer o f the game
with 21 points.
The girls managed to
set down Sherman 36-33
but then fell to Condon/
Wheeler/Arlington 22-50
on Friday, Feb. 15. A 44-
47 loss on Saturday when
they played Echo for third
seed in the state playoffs
then ended the girls’ season.
Lacey Thompson was lead
scorer for the team in game
one with 14 points and
game two with 11 points.
Shadow Kendrick led scor­
ing in game three with 12
points, followed by Thomp­
son with 11.
The Cards will keep
on rolling, though, as track
season starts practice next
Monday, Feb. 25. The Car­
dinals’ first track event of
the season will be a clinic in
Hood River on March 9.
