Heppner High School
boys’ and girls’ wrestling is
underway for the 2024-25
season. The teams, which
have grown since last year,
made a strong first impres-
sion, showcasing incredible
determination and skill
across eight challenging
tournaments since the be-
ginning of the season.
Several wrestlers from
both the boys’ and the
girls’ teams, have stood out
amongst their competitors.
Zachary Brown is hold-
ing strong to a record of
17-0 for the season thus
far. Landon McMahon is
holding a record of 19-2
after winning first at the
latest tournament that he
competed in.
Keeley Nairns, Journey
Cavan-Harris and Emilia
Cavan-Harris have each in
their weight class in every
tournament that they have
contended in since the start
of the season.
Coaches Zac Brown
and Tyler Robinson said
they were extremely proud
to share that the Heppner
Girls’ wrestling brought
home a second-place trophy
from the Elgin Memorial
Tournament. This is the
very first trophy for the
women’s wrestling program
since its inception at HHS.
The wrestlers and their
coaches also want to give a
huge thanks to the following
individuals, businesses and
organizations that helped
put together the funds to
purchase new mats for the
program: Heppner Booster
Club, Miller and Sons,
Silver Creek Construction,
Mid Columbia Concrete,
Threemile Farms, Watt
Construction, Allred Land
Worx, Wight Electric, Blue
Mountain Plumbing, Bank
of Eastern Oregon, Bailey
Heavy Equipment & Re-
pair, Morrow County Grain

Schwab, Coil Fabrication,
Devin Oil, Rogers Toyota,
Martin Construction, Mar-
tin Towing, Murray’s Drug,
Hansen Vet Services, Corey
Miller Farms, Thompson
Farms, Osmin Ranch, Mike
Mahoney, Colin Anderson,
and Allstott Construction.
The generosity and
support of each of these
individuals and entities
has been reflected in the
design chosen to honor the
memory of Sharon Miller,
who herself was a huge
supporter of the community
of Heppner and the HHS
wrestling program.
