The H eppner M us
tang football team ran their
season record to 7-0 with
a 50-14 victory over the
Stanfield Tigers on Fri
day night. Heppner scored
touchdowns on six of their
10 possessions in the game.
The only scores for the Ti
gers came late in the game
when the outcome had al
ready been decided.
Heppner received the
opening kickoff to start the
game. They were forced to
punt the ball to the Tigers.
Heppner got it right back
when Kaden Clark inter
cepted a pass at the Mus
tang 33-yard line. Heppner
moved the ball over mid-
field but the drive stalled.
A fake punt play saw Logan
Grieb run the ball 41 yards
down the left sideline to
give the Mustangs a first
and goal at the seven-yard
line. Two plays later CJ
Kindle ran the ball in from
three yards out for a touch
down. That made the score
6 - 0 .
The M ustangs then
kicked off and Stanfield
fumbled the ball. Kevin
Murray fell on it to give the
Mustangs the ball at the 50-
yard line. Clark then threw
a swing pass to Kindle, who
took it all the way for an
other Mustang touchdown.
Clark threw to a wide-open
Weston Putman for the two-
point conversion to make
the score 14-0. The Hep
pner defense forced another
punt to give the ball back
to the offense. Clark then
threw a pass to Grieb. who
outran the defense for a 62-
yard touchdown play. Jesse
Corbin kicked the extra
point to give the Mustangs
a 21 -0 lead at the end o f the
first quarter.
Early in the second
quarter the Tigers punted
the ball. Corbin caught it
on the run and returned it
60 yards for another touch
down. Corbin made the PAT
kick to make the score 28-0.
After the Tigers turned the
ball over on downs, Clark
threw a shovel pass to Brian
Rill, who took it 47 yards
before being knocked out
of bounds at the one-yard
line. On the very next play
Rill carried the ball in fora
touchdown. The score was
now 34-0.
Once again the Mus
tang defensed forced a
punt and the offense scored
again. Clark found Grieb
open on a corner rout and
hit him with a 32-yard pass
for another touchdown.
Heppner scored the two-
point conversion when
Clark found Putman open
again, and that made the
score 42-0 at halftime.
Heppner kicked off to
start the second half and
forced another Tiger punt.
Six plays later the Mustangs
scored again when Tommy
Bredfield ran the ball in
from 16 yards out. Clark
threw to Rill for the two-
point conversion and it was
now 50-0 with seven min
utes left in the third quarter.
The JV kickoff team
came in to boot the ball
away. The younger Mus

game and gained valuable
experience against the Stan
field varsity team. Stanfield

possessions with each other
three times as neither could
sustain a drive. Jorgen An
derson intercepted a pass
to get the ball back for
the Mustangs. When that
Mustang drive stalled, Len

yard punt to pin the Knights
deep in their own end of the
field. Coby Dougherty then
intercepted an Irrigon pass
and ran it into scoring posi
tion. On the final play of the
half, Lindsay completed a
pass to Dougherty, but he
was stopped before he was
able to score. Heppner led
the game 8-0 at halftime.

in the drive and completed
two passes to Dougherty
for a total of 20 yards. Hep
