Isabel Payne also had a standout game, deliver- ing a momentum-shifting three-run double in the fourth inning that helped Heppner briefly take the lead. We s t o n - M c Ew e n jumped ahead early with a two-run homer from B. Ward in the first inning and extended their lead to 5-1 by the top of the third. But the Mustangs stormed back in the bottom of the fourth, scoring five runs on just two hits to go up 6-5. The lead seesawed through the fifth and sev- enth innings, with both teams exchanging runs. Maya Payne’s RBI single in the fifth briefly put Hep- pner ahead 8-7, but another home run by Weston-McE- wen’s H. Berry tied the game at eight in the sev- NOTICE OF BUDGET COMMITTEE MEET- ING #2, IONE SCHOOL DISTRICT #2.
