WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2016 ROUNDUP: continued from Page A6 ARLINGTON 37, IONE 8 — At Ione, the Arlington Honkers kept their hot start to the season going with a win over Ione to stay unbeaten on Friday night. Ione (0-5, 0-3 SD4) coach Todd Knop said that turnovers played a big part in his team’s lack of suc- cess in scoring the football on Friday. “We moved the ball really well, got in the red zone a few times, but we fumbled three times, lost all three, and had an inter- ception going into the end zone,” he said. Knop said one fumble in particular was a back- breaker for the team, as it came with Ione trailing just 6-0 early in the irst quarter. Ione had a perfect pass play to a wide-open receiver, but the receiver fumbled the ball imme- diately after catching it, which swung the momen- tum back into Arlington’s favor. “Honestly, I think this game may have played a little differently if we don’t fumble there and get a score instead,” Knop said, “We just made too many mistakes.” Arlington plays at Du- fur Friday and Ione will travel to Perrydale for 7 HERMISTONHERALD.COM • A7 SPORTS ECHO 3, JOSEPH 2 — At Echo, the Cou- gars fought off a comeback attempt by Joseph to earn a big Old Oregon League victory on Saturday afternoon 25-19, 25- 22, 19-25, 21-25, 15-8. p.m. starts.

Boys Soccer IRRIGON 4, UMATILLA 4 — The the Irrigon Knights and Umatilla Vikings combined G O O D for six goals in the second half to finish in a 4-4 tie in a thrilling Special District 4 game on Saturday. “It was the most exciting game we’ve had this year,” Irrigon coach Paul Keefer said after the game. “It was a great game between two rivals … we would’ve liked to have a win but we’ll take the tie.” Umatilla (4-3-2, 1-1-1 SD4) got the scoring going just seven minutes into the game when Luis Castro centered the ball towards the goal from the left side, and his pass connected with the head of Ben Binene and redirected into the back of the net for the 1-0 lead. That score stood until the 36th minute when Irrigon’s Oscar Armenta sent a corner kick toward the net where Ruben Barrera stepped up and sent in a header into the goal for the Knights to tie the game at 1-1 and send it to halftime. Out of the halftime break is where things got real interesting. In the 45th minute Irrigon’s Pedro Maciel was handed his second yellow card of the game, earning a red card and ejection. That meant that Irrigon would have to play the final 35 minutes of the game 10 on 11. But the Knights did not back down, and instead grabbed ahold of the mo- mentum and ran with it. In the 52nd minute, Kenny Blurton blasted one into the net with an assist from Barrera to give Irrigon a 2-1 lead, and then just 10 minutes later Irrigon had a throw in deep in Umatilla’s zone by Marcos Mejia and after a few passes toward the net the ball found the back of the net for a 3-1 Knights lead. But Umatilla was not done either. S H E P H E R D The Vikings worked its offense quickly after the third Irrigon goal and turned in three goals in a span of four minutes, two from Ernesto Mejia and one from Elian Armenta to erase the deficit and give Umatilla a 4-3 lead with 10 minutes to play. However, Barrera was in the right spot at the right time for Irrigon as he scored the tying goal at the 72nd minute on a rebound shot that got away from Umatil- la’s goalkeeper to make the score 4-4. Keefer said he was proud of his team to earn the tie, especially after playing at a disadvantage for nearly the entire second half. “The kids did really well and stepped up when they needed to the most,” he said. “Umatilla put the press on us and didn’t back down at all … I’m really proud of these guys.” UHS (4-3-2, 1-1-1) 1 IHS (3-1-1, 1-1-1) 1 3 3 — — 4 4 Goals First Half 7’ — UHS Ben Binene (UHS 1-0) 36’ — IHS Ruben Barrera (Tie 1-1) Second Half 52’ — IHS Kenny Blurton (IHS 2-1) 62’ — UHS own goal (IHS 3-1) 63’ — UHS Ernesto Mejia (IHS 3-2) 67’ — UHS Ernesto Mejia (Tie 3-3) 70’ — UHS Elian Armenta (UHS 4-3) 72’ — IHS Ruben Barrera (Tie 4-4) ——— Report game scores and statistics by calling (541) 966-0838.
