SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 2015 HERMISTONHERALD.COM • A11 CLASSIFIEDS • SPORTS Echo Tigers split double header with Prospectors EO MEDIA GROUP SOFTBALL In a 3A Eastern Oregon League doubleheader on Fri- day, the Echo softball team had a couple of slow starts, but it rallied to salvage one of them. Against the Grant Union Prospectors, Echo spotted WKHP ¿YH UXQV LQ WKH ¿UVW LQQLQJ RI WKH ¿UVW JDPH DQG WZRLQWKH¿UVWLQQLQJRIWKH second. Echo rallied from a GH¿FLW LQ WKH RSHQHU WR win 9-8, but couldn’t muster the bats in an 8-2 loss in the nightcap. Echo (7-4, 4-2) retains sole possession of second place behind still undefeat- ed-in-league Vale. Grant Union sits in fourth place. Monique Montoya was 1-for-4 with three RBIs and Samantha McQuown was 3-for-4 out of the eight hole. McKenzie Gonzales contin- ued to pitch well, throwing all seven innings and allowing eight runs, four earned, on eight hits and fanned 11 and walked six. GU sent 10 batters to the SODWHLQWKHERWWRPRIWKH¿UVW and Echo responded with six of its own. Down 5-0, Mon- toya reached on an error to plate both Christopher and Hannah McCarty to cut the SWARAT: continued from page A10 knit community there. When Blackburn learned Swarat was leaning toward NNU, he added his support. “I was all for it,” Black- burn said. “He came to (assis- tant coach) Sean (Williams) and I, and both of us know the coach over there. He thought about it more than I (did) be- fore I went to college. He was like, ‘Hey, I’m going to go check it out. What do I need to say to the coach?’ All these lead to 5-2. After GU extend- ed the lead to 7-2 in the sec- ond, Erika Parks scored on a wild pitch in the third and was followed shortly thereafter by Gonzales, who scored on an error to make the count 7-4.

It wouldn’t last, as GU pushed across the go-ahead run in the top half of the sev- enth, but Ray walked with one out and came around on Christopher’s two-out walk- off single to hand Echo a 9-8 come-from-behind victory. ——— ECHO 9, GRANT UNION 8 GU 520 000 1 — 8 8 5 EHS 202 211 1 — 9 10 4 S.

I was like, ‘Man, he’s really thought about this.’ That’s what makes him a great person — he’s thought out, he’s planned.” Swarat, a cross country runner and saxophonist in the pep band, was thrilled when NNU gave him the opportunity to pursue both interests. In his junior year, Swarat visited Nampa, where his sister is currently a student, but the cross coun- try team was at a meet and the coaches were unavail- able. The counselors and professors passed his name The Prospectors scored in four innings and plated multi- ple runs in three of those four.
