Mustangs send Knights
home empty-handed
Looking to defend their
Columbia Basin Conference
title from last year, the
Heppner Mustangs took
care of business against the
Irrigon Knights by a score
of 36-0 last Friday. The first
league game of the year was
also the Homecoming game
for the team.
A slow start by both
teams led to a first quarter
in which there were several
defensive stands and punts.
It was a quarter o f field
position and, as the quarter
ended, the Mustangs got
the ball at their own 46-
yard line to start the second
quarter.
A big run by Jordan
Bailey set up the Mustangs’
first score. A five-yard
touchdown run and PAT
run by Weston Putm an
made the score 8-0. On the
next Knight possession a
big quarterback sack by
John Propheter led to them
having to punt. On the very
next play Brian Rill threw
a halfback pass to Jesse
Corbin, who ran it to the
two-yard line. Rill scored
on the next play and the
Mustangs led 14-0.
The d efen se ag ain
forced a punt and this time
they blocked the kick.
Corbin scooped it up and
ran 55-yards for the score.
The PAT pass from Kaden
Clark to Corbin made the
score 22-0 at halftime.

scored when Rill ran the
ball in from 19 yards out.
The PAT pass from Clark
to Jaden Orr made the score
30-0. The strong play of
the defense forced another
Irrigon punt. A nice 45-yard
pass from Clark to Corbin
resulted in another Mustafig
touchdown and made the
score 36-0.
In the fourth quarter the
teams traded possessions
and the Mustang defense
stopped the Knights on a 4th
and 1 late in the game to get
the ball back. The offense
ran several running plays to
eat up the clock and took a
knee on the last three plays
to end the game. The final
score was 36-0 in favor of
the Mustangs.
The Mustang offense
was led by Clark who was
8-16 for 68 yards, one TD
and three Int. Rill rushed
for 140 yards, followed by
Weston Putman with 43,
while Tommy Bredfield had
27. Corbin caught five balls
for 77 yards and Logan
Grieb had one catch for
17. The Mustangs had 312
total yards of offense and
held the Knights to a total
of 71 yards.
Leading the charge on
the defensive side o f the
ball was B redfield who
was in on a total o f 14
tackles. Ethan Ashbeck
was next with six. Treston
Maben, Patrick Collins and
Propheter tallied five each.
JC Putman, Rill and Corbin
were in on four.

had an outstanding game
on offense w ith eight
catches for 177 yards and
four TD," said lone coach

Jason Juarez had another
strong game with a number
of impressive open field
tackles.”
