B2 • HERMISTONHERALD.COM VIKINGS: continued from Page B1 Umatilla’s 38-yard line as the irst quarter came to a close. The Vikings immediate- ly asserted themselves in the second quarter, though, and Durfey intercepted a deep Weinke pass on the frame’s irst play. Eight plays later the Vi- king were back in the end zone for a 13-0 lead, but not before another costly penalty that wiped out a 72- yard catch-and-run by Sean Miller. Umatilla got most of those yards back when Durfey caught a short pass and rumbled up the side- line for a 40-yard gain, then scored on a 26-yard running back pass from Ramirez to Justin Maret with 8:12 left in the irst half. Ramirez stepped into ECHO: continued from Page B1 off touchdown left no real chance for Ione to respond. “We wanted to do it for our seniors because it’s their last year,” Craig said. “We had to do it for them.” The Cougars and Cardi- nals were both coming off opening week losses and neither team wanted to add another one, let alone in a ROUNDUP: continued from Page B1 drive, Grieb took a handoff on the Mustangs irst play of the drive and sprinted 61 yards through the Pros- pectors defense and into the end zone for the 16-0 lead. Grieb inished the game with 192 rushing yards on 15 total carries. On defense, senior Kev- in Murray led the way with 14 total tackles and Wyatt Steagall was close behind with eight. Jaca and Beau Walters also each registered interceptions in the game. Grant said the defense showed Friday that there’s the rush and lofted a loat- ing pass to Maret who was wide open behind the de- fense. He paid a hefty price as a Pilot Rock defender was there to deliver a big hit just after he released the ball. “I knew it was coming,” said the 135-pound fresh- man. “I played quarterback last year so I already know you’ve got to take hits and just stay tough, stay in there.” Ramirez was eager to run the play again after the Vikings tried it unsuccess- fully in their season opener. “With my gloves on I held the ball too hard,” he said. “So I was practicing with my gloves, trying to hold the ball a little softer. I already knew I could throw it, just I had to adjust how I was grabbing the ball.” Umatilla came out in the second half looking to shorten the game and use its advantages in numbers and size to wear down the Rockets, which suited up just 18 for the game. But despite being out- manned and out-sized, the Rockets kept Umatilla from getting back to the end zone until late in the fourth quarter on a 14-yard pass from Webb to Maret with 3:32 left. Durfey ran the ball 19 times for 91 yards after halftime, but let go of a fumble on the goal line that Pilot Rock’s Devin Hasher recovered with 6:43 left in the game. Durfey inished with a game-high 119 yards on 25 carries. “Deinitely it’s fun to just go up there and pound the ball in,” he said of his second-half duties. “It’s just fun. “I deinitely want to ig- ure out how to cover the ball up. I just need to keep my mind straight and keep rivalry game. Coming into Friday, Ione had won the previous ive matchups be- tween the two teams. Not only had Echo’s three se- niors – Jenson, Chris Me- drano and Dalton Wohlcke – never felt the triumph of a victory over their former league foes, they had never won a home opener. “All four of my years we haven’t won our irst home game, so coming out here and getting a win for the home crowd is unexplain- able,” Jenson said. “It’s the greatest feeling I’ve had in my high school career.” Next up for Ione is a home matchup with Sher- man next week, while Echo will travel to Pome- roy (Washington) to face a team it has never faced. “The momentum deinitely carries over,” Jensen said. “...We have the conidence that we can go out and beat anyone.” still plenty of holes to ix. “We’re still an imma- ture team with experience there,” Grant said. “I had two freshmen playing a linebacker, and there’s 4-5 kids that this is only their second varsity game.” Heppner hits the road again next week when it heads to Cascade-Leavenworth (WA) for a 7 p.m. kickoff. with a 234 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries — an average of more than 15 yards per carry.
