By SAM BARBEE
Staff Writer
For the last two years, the
Kuna Kavemen traversed
the Blue Mountains to come
to Hermiston, and twice left
with dual meet wins. This
year was a different story.
Hermiston came up with
eight pins in 14 matches to
KDQGOH WKH .DYHPHQ
Thursday afternoon at The
Dawghouse. Hermiston left
right after to travel to Couer
d’Alene, Idaho for the Tri-
State tournament that runs
Friday and Saturday.
