Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, April 13, 2022 -- SEVEN
Mustangs host home golf
tournament
Mustang baseball and softball hosted a combined
seven games this week
By Blake Carter
The Mustang golf team
has been competing all
month, placing highly as
a team at multiple tourna-
ments. This weekend the
golf team had the chance
to play on a course that
they are very familiar with.
Seniors Cody Fletcher, and
Derrick Smith help lead
the team, along with ju-
niors David Cribbs, Landon
Mitchell, Paul Linsday, and
Adan Guerra. Freshman
John Lindsay rounds out
the group of seven boys.
Senior Harley Anderson
is also competing on the
women’s side of the golf
tournaments. Each tourna-
ment, the Mustang boys
take their top five scores out
of the seven competitors,
their combined score is
then placed into the team
competition. Last Thursday
the Mustangs had a great
tournament and look to
continue their success this
season.
Heppner, Oregon was
very busy all week with
high school competition.
Heppner Mustang soft-
ball and baseball are al-
ready competing in very
important league games
early in the year. Baseball
and softball are dominated
by league games and fea-
ture very little non-league
matchups. Early in the sea-
son both teams are battling
league contenders and the
outcome of these contests
could play huge roles in
the end of season league
standings.
Heppner baseball start-
ed their week last Tuesday
as they hosted the Grant
Union and Prairie City
co-op team. The Mustangs
pulled out a gritty 3-0 victo-
ry to move to a perfect 4-0
in league play. Heppner has
won their last four games
behind stout pitching from
their two headed monster,
junior Tucker Ashbeck and
senior Toby Nation. Ash-
beck and Nation each threw
a complete game shutout in
the double header win last
week, and the two com-
bined for their third straight
shutout as they took out
Grant Union/Prairie City.
The two also have tremen-
dous help from their de-
fense in the field. The Mus-
tangs kept the Prospectors
at bay until they were able
to capitalize and score two
runs in the fourth. Heppner
loaded up the bases with no
outs after a couple singles,
and a bunt. Karver Wilkins
sent a fly ball into right field
that would score a run for
Heppner, Jake Lentz would
ground out in the next at
bat, but scored a Mustang
runner from third to make
the game 2-0. Heppner
tacked on another in the
sixth, Kason Cimmiyotti
pounded a ball to the second
baseman that would score
Cameron Proudfoot from
third base. Grant Union/
Prairie City had two base
runners on in the seventh
inning, but Nation shut the
door on the Prospectors.
Nation struck a batter out
for the second out before
shortstop Carson Eyenetich
snagged a line drive to give
Heppner the win. The Mus-
tang pitching staff allowed
just five hits, while striking
out nine batters.
Also competing last
Tuesday was the Heppner
softball team who hosted
their own doubleheader as
they battled the Enterprise,
Wallowa and Joseph co-op
softball team. The Outlaws
are a 3A opponent but fea-
ture a tough team. Heppner
couldn’t get much going
as they fell in back to back
games.
Friday, Heppner soft-
ball hosted the Grant Union
and Prairie City softball
co-op. The Prospectors sat
at number one in the OSAA
automated rankings headed
into the double header.
Grant Union showed their
talent as they beat Heppner
in two games.
Heppner baseball
rounded out the weekend
as they hosted the four team
co-op that consists of the
Sherman County, Condon,
Arlington and Wheeler
High Schools. Heppner
was able to go 2-0 against
the Huskies. Heppner ten
runned Sherman in the first
game as Tucker Ashbeck
and Caden George com-
bined to strike out nine and
allow just one run. Toby
Nation was efficient at the
plate as he batted in three
runs, George also batted in
two runs as the Mustangs
won 11-1. Game two was
much of the same, Heppner
shut out Sherman 10-0. This
time Nation and Karver
Wilkins combined to allow
no runs in five innings of
combined work. George
was efficient at the plate
once again, batting in three
runs this game. Kason Cim-
miyotti also hit two runs in.
