Tigers stun Knights in come-from-behind win
Stanfield erases
20-point deficit to
beat Irrigon
By ERIC SINGER
Staff Writer
Friday’s game between
the Irrigon Knights and
Stan¿eld Tigers looked on
paper to be one of the best
games of the season.
The game featured two
undefeated teams sitting at
the top of the CBC against
each other, battling it out
for possible playoff posi-
tioning.
When the game was ¿-

24-yard ¿eld goal on their
¿rst overtime drive, Sandy
was taking shots at the end
zone. A Sanders pass on
second down almost found
Gabe Poulin in the back
of the end zone, but it was
just a bit too far. Then, on
third down, Sanders over-
threw Robert Snyder and
Ena picked it off close to
his goal line, and almost
managed to score to seal
the win.
But he came just short,
and Hermiston had to make
another defensive stop late.
Cue Ena.
After a holding penalty
on ¿rst down and losses of
13 and 2 yards on their next
two plays, the Pioneers (0-
6) found themselves in a
3rd and goal situation from

nally played, it lived up
to its billing and more as
Stan¿eld erased a 20-point
de¿cit to defeat the Irrigon
Knights 49-41 in Irrigon.
“I thought we played a
pretty good game,” said Ir-
rigon coach Steve Sheller.
“I thought if we could have
got one more touchdown
ahead of them, it could
have done it. The Stan¿eld
Tigers just did not roll over
and die tonight.”
The game played out to
be a tale of two halves, as
Irrigon dominated the ¿rst
half on both sides of the
football.
The Knights (5-1, 1-1
CBC) offense was moving
up-and-down the ¿eld at
will behind the back¿eld
trio of Freddy Vera, Carlos
Zacharias and Austin Rice.
On Irrigon’s ¿rst pos-
session Zacharias took the
hand-off from quarterback
Nathan Verley and bounced
around the left edge before
outrunning the Stan¿eld de-
fense for a 46-yard touch-
down run.
A
successful
two-
point conversion gave the
Knights an 8-0 lead with
just under 10 minutes left
in the ¿rst quarter.
Stan¿eld (6-0, 2-0 CBC)
wasted no time to show off
their offensive ¿repower
as Thyler Monkus took the
hand-off from quarterback
Dylan Grogan and scam-
pered 65-yards to the house
to cut Irrigon’s lead to 8-7
early in the ¿rst quarter.
Then Irrigon began to
run away, as Freddy Vera
found the end zone twice
in the quarter with a three-
yard touchdown run and a
24-yard touchdown recep-
tion from Verley to give the
Knights a 22-7 lead in the
¿rst quarter.
The Irrigon trio ¿nished
with 291 yards and two
touchdowns on the ground
in the ¿rst half.
The second quarter saw
plenty of back-and-forth
action, as the Tigers and
Knights traded scores twice
to send the teams to half-
time with a 35-21 score fa-
voring Irrigon.
Stan¿eld coach Davey
Salas knew that his team
was better than what the
scoreboard showed, and
challenged his players to
step up.
Monkus and Grogan
were almost unstoppable
on the ground in the game,
combining for 37 rush-
es and 404 yards and ¿ve
touchdowns overall.
The Tigers sealed the
win on a 16-yard touch-
down run by Grogan with
just six seconds remaining
in the game.
the 35, with a shot to the
end zone almost guaran-
teed. Ena read the play per-
fectly, jumped it and ran it
back to mid¿eld.
That gave Hermiston a
chance to win with just a
¿eld goal, but that wasn’t
necessary. Garcia plowed
into the end zone on sec-
ond down, and Hermiston’s
players rushed the ¿eld in
celebration.
“Both teams battled
hard,” head coach David
Faaeteete said. “I told the
kids, ‘This is gonna be a
tough battle. Regardless of
a team’s win-loss record,
they’re gonna come in and
¿ght because everyone’s
hungry for a W. The later in
the season you get, the hun-
grier you are.”
Both teams, though,
seemed uninterested in
winning in the ¿rst half.
Of 15 ¿rst half drives,
11 were three-and-outs and
both teams combined for
¿ve holding penalties, all
but ending drives.
Hermiston took a 7-0
lead with 1:39 left in the
¿rst quarter when quar-
terback Nathan Hunsaker,
¿lling in for the injured
Dayshawn Neal, hit Jerry
Ramirez on a screen pass,
and the junior tight end
weaved his way through
the Pioneers defense, mak-
ing would-be tacklers miss
and breaking a few before
crossing the goal line for a
13-yard touchdown.
Hermiston would lead
just about the rest of the
game until a late Sandy drive
made things exponential-
ly more interesting. About
halfway through the fourth
quarter, Sandy embarked on
a nine-play, 64-yard drive
capped by 10-yard pass
to Grayson Fenwick to tie
things up. Hermiston was
whistled for a pass interfer-
ence penalty the play be-
fore on 2nd down to set up
the touchdown. Sandy only
had the ball down at Herm-
iston’s goal line because
Sanders slipped away on a
strange play.
With a third-and-one
from Hermiston’s 41,
Sanders ran a silent, quick-
snap quarterback sneak
and was piled around, but
somehow he slipped out
and gained 25 yards, set-
ting up the pass interfer-
ence penalty and later the
touchdown.
A long punt return from
Mitch Brown got Hermis-
ton down to the Sandy 26,
but a fumble on a zone-read
exchange gave Sandy the
ball, who simply knelt to
send the game to overtime.
Then it was Ena’s cue to
snatch back the momentum
that lead to Hermiston’s
win.
“It honestly just means
we got heart and we’re
ready to come out and ¿n-
ish,” Ena said. “It was a
good game and I’m glad we
won.”
Hermiston will play is
¿rst Columbia River Con-
ference game Friday at The
Dalles.

a good back-up quarterback
option in Kevin Smith, who
passed for 227 yards, four
touchdowns and one inter-
ception on 8-of-12 passing
against Tri-Cities Prep in re-
lief of Clark a few weeks ago.
“They’re explosive,” Salas
said of Heppner’s offense.
“They stick to their blocks re-
ally, really well. They play for
each other. They don’t care
who gets the credit.”
Stan¿eld has proven it
can slow down explosive
offenses. It held a good
Weston-McEwen offense
to just 14 points two weeks
ago, and held a high-pow-
ered Irrigon offense to just
seven second-half points
last week. Heppner, though,
has more weapons than ei-
ther Weston-McEwen or
Irrigon.
To Salas, Stan¿eld has to
do two things: start fast and
match Heppner’s toughness,
as well as be sound in all three
phases — offense, defense
special teams — because the
Mustangs will do all three.

this year — the 46-26 win
over Imbler and last week’s
Irrigon win — as two games
Stan¿eld spotted leads. Salas
said Stan¿eld cannot spot
Heppner a lead of any size.
“We’re coming together
at the right time,” Salas said.
“I knew it would be a tough
stretch of games. We just beat
Weston-McEwen. We just
195-pound debut. Re-
enan doubled up on Far-
go titles at 182 this sum-
mer for the second time
in his career as Colbray
was a runner-up in Free-
style and Greco at 195.
The interesting part
of this bout will be
if Reenan has gotten
his weight up and will
be able to handle the
13-pound jump. There’s
no question that he has
the strength but the
drastic weight change
can take a toll on him.
Outside of that, this
match can be super en-
tertaining because both
guys have pretty great
offense and aren’t afraid
to go big with throws
since they both have
pretty great Greco back-
grounds.”
Colbray didn’t par-
ticipate in this event
last fall after sustaining
a concussion in Herm-
iston’s 31-27 football
loss at Coeur d’Alene
last season. Colbray
declined a return to the
gridiron this season, cit-
ing injury concerns that
could jeopardize his col-
legiate wrestling career.
Colbray is currently be-
ing recruited by Cornell
University in upstate
New York, Iowa State
University and Oregon
State University.

beat Irrigon, two of the top
dogs in the CBC. We’re right
there. We’re really right there.
That game just showed me
once these kids start believing
how good they are, they can
hold a really explosive Irri-
gon team to seven points in
the second half. ... It’s just a
matter of getting these kids to
believe.”

Munitions Response Site Prioritization
Protocol Umatilla Chemical Depot
Ammunition Demolition Activity Area
Hermiston, OR
The U.S. Army recently updated the
application of the Munitions Response Site
Prioritization Protocol (MRSPP) at Umatilla
Chemical Depot (UMCD), Ammunition
Demolition Activity (ADA) Area. The UMCD
was initially used for storage of conventional
munitions; and later expanded to include
ammunition demolition, renovation, and
maintenance; as well as testing, rework,
burning, demolition, and disassembly
operations associated with conventional mili-
tary munitions. Operations continued from
1941 through 1955.
The UMCD ADA was reviewed under the
Department of Defenseʼs MRSPP. This
protocol is used to assess Defense Sites
that may have unexploded ordnance,
discarded military munitions, or munitions
constituents; and to guide future
investigation or removal actions at such
sites. In assigning a relative priority for
response activities, the Department of
Defense generally considers Defense Sites
posing the greatest hazard as being the
highest priority. The MRSPP score for
the UMCD ADA is 4.
The MRSPP documents were revised in
response to the Remedial Design/Remedial
Action completed at the site in 2014. The
revised documents are available for public
review for 30 days. You are encouraged to
review and comment on the MRSPP and se-
quencing process used for the UMCD ADA.
The documents may be viewed by contact-
ing Michele Martin, Base
Realignment and Closure (BRAC)
Environmental Coordinator.
