Prep Roundup: Echo Cougars fall
in first round of football playoffs
TIGERS:

leaned on their 335-pound
fullback Andre Holmes
who barreled his way into
the end zone to cut the lead
to 12-7.
Holmes was Central
Linn’s second leading rush-
er in the game, carrying
the ball 15 times for 61
yards and a score. Grogan,
who also plays linebacker
for the Tigers, said it was
not always easy to tackle
Holmes.
“Oh it was hard to get
him. It wasn’t just one per-
son it had to be a group and
you had to go low,” Grogan
said. “I hit him hard a cou-
ple times and he still didn’t
go down. He’s a real big
boy.”
But after the score the
Tigers quickly grabbed
the momentum back as a
few quick plays put Stan-
field back in Cobra terri-
tory. Facing a 2nd-and-3
from the 38, Grogan took
the snap and a quick three-
step drop and fired the ball
toward receiver Brody
Woods, who caught the ball
on a slant route and outran
the defense up the middle
for the touchdown and a
20-7 lead. Grogan said that
was the biggest drive of the
game for the Tigers.
“It changed the momen-
tum back because they kind
of had it after getting the
score,” he said.
The Tigers’ prettiest
touchdown of the game
came midway through the
second quarter still leading
20-7. Facing a 3rd-and-5
from its own 40, Grogan
again took the snap and
dropped into a play-action
pass, and then cocked back
his arm and fired a rock-
et down the field to find a

plays from scrimmage in
the first half with seven
of those resulting in rush-
ing touchdowns as the of-
fensive line paved gaping
holes.
“I thought this was their
best game of the year,”
Grant said of the offensive
line. “They’re really com-
ing together and communi-
cating and understand what
they’re doing … they’re
telling me what to run and
not me telling them and
that’s what you want to
have this time of year, it
shows they really under-
stand.”
Grieb, who has been
Heppner’s big-play guy
all season, was a big ben-
eficiary of the line’s play
as he carried the ball just

Cobras on Friday in Stanfield.
streaking Justin Shelby all
alone behind the Cobra de-
fense for a 60-yard touch-
down to put Stanfield up
28-7.
“I saw (Justin) and didn’t
see anyone around him so
I just kind of threw it up
and put it in a spot where
he could get to it,” Grogan
said.
The pass at the time
seemed like the final nail in
the coffin from the Cobras,
who just couldn’t consis-
tently put drives together
against the stingy Stanfield
defense. Running back
Braden Nightengale scored
the Cobras only other
touchdown of the game on
a 90-yard run in the third
quarter.
The win moves Stanfield
to the quarterfinals where it
will play the winner of to-
day’s game between No. 7
Lost River and No. 10 San-
tiam.
“This win gives us con-
fidence,” Barnes said. “We
were a little bit nervous
coming into this game,
(Central Linn) was far bet-
ter than a 3-6 team but this
gives us momentum we
need to carry into the next
round.”
Stanfield will host the
No. 10 seed Santiam Wol-
verines (7-3) from the
Tri-River Conference at 6
p.m. on Friday in the quar-
terfinal round.

five times but ended up
with 192 rushing yards and
four touchdowns. His only
non-touchdown carry was
a four-yard gain in the sec-
ond quarter.
“The line was unbeliev-
able,” Grieb said. “In the
playoffs every year our line
seems to take another step
and props to them.”
Heppner showed its
dominance up front from
the start, holding Gold
Beach (6-4) to minus-one
yard of offense on its open-
ing drive and then blocked
the ensuing punt to give the
Mustang offense the ball at
the Panther 17. After that,
Heppner needed just three
plays — all runs by Coby
Dougherty — before get-
ting into the end zone on a
one-yard Dougherty plunge
for an 8-0 lead with three
minutes expired.
Dougherty also had a
strong game for Heppner,
carrying the ball 13 times
for 117 yards and three
touchdowns.
The Mustangs scored
six more touchdowns in the
first half, the final one being
a 35-yard scamper by Beau
Wolters on 4th-and-2, and
the team averaged more
than 39 yards on each of
those six touchdowns.
On the defensive side of
the ball, Heppner held Gold
Beach to 182 total yards —
110 of which came against
the JV squad in the second
half — and forced three
turnovers. Grant believes
that shutting down the Pan-
thers’ offense early in the
game was a big key for
Heppner.
“I think they were dis-
couraged after we stuffed
them on the first two se-
ries defensively,” Grant
said. “I think if they (Gold

NORTH
DOUG-
LAS 50, ECHO 28 — At
Sutherlin, the Echo Cougars
couldn’t dig out of an early
hole and were eliminated
from the 1A postseason by
the North Douglas Warriors
on Friday.
An interception return for
a touchdown by Tazz Dill,
then two recovered onside
kicks that led to touchdowns
by Dominic Aguilar put No.
3 North Douglas (10-1) up
20-0 before No. 14 Echo (5-
4) had picked up a first down.
Warriors tackle Walker
Woolley was effective in dis-
rupting the Cougars’ rushing
attack, which finished with
just 87 yards, but quarter-
back Devan Craig was able
to get the Cougars moving
through the air and finished
9-of-14 for 206 yards with
four touchdowns and two
interceptions.
Klay Jensen had four
catches for 112 yards and
three touchdowns, and Da-
mian Curiel had four catches
for 89 yards and one touch-
down.
Echo also created four
turnovers on defense, but
couldn’t cut the lead any
closer than when a 38-yard
touchdown pass from Craig
to Jensen on the last play of
the first half made it 36-14.
North Douglas finished
with 415 yards of total of-
fense with 398 of those rush-
ing.
Beach) could’ve moved the
ball and chunked away it
could’ve been a lot differ-
ent for them. We definitely
prepared for their best and
it showed, we were ready.”
Gold Beach’s first score
happened just before time
expired in the second quar-
ter, capitalizing on a Hep-
pner fumble. The cash-in
play was a 19-yard touch-
down pass that cut the
score to 49-6. The Pan-
thers scored twice more on
touchdown passes in the
second half, a 60-yarder
and a nine-yarder.
After a quick score for
Heppner to start the second
half, Grant felt confident
enough to pull his starters
on both sides for the ball
and played the junior var-
sity for all but the first two
minutes of the second half.
Grant says that he was hap-
py to get the freshmen and

“I was upset we gave
up that touchdown before
halftime because I want-
