WEDNESDAY, MAY 24, 2017 HERMISTONHERALD.COM • A11 SPORTS BMCC pool could close for good June 2 Bulldogs draw tough match-up By ERIC SINGER Staff Writer HERMISTON — For the first time since 2013, the Hermiston softball team finds itself back in the 5A state tournament. Of course this time Hermiston’s road to a state championship game ap- pearance is much tougher as the Bulldogs slot into the 2017 tournament as the No. 15 seed after turning in a 10-16 overall record and a 3-9 mark in the CRC. Up first for Hermiston is the No. 2 seed Marist Catholic, who comes in with the most potent of- fense in the state. Led by reigning Class 5A Player of the Year and University of Oregon signee Lauren Burke, the Spartans put up 311 runs this year for an average of just over 13 per game. The Spartans also allow an average of just 2.3 runs per game, which means Hermiston’s offense will need contributions from every spot in the lineup and will need to find ways to manufacture runs. Hermiston will also need another strong per- formance from pitcher Ju- lissa Almaguer, who has led the Bulldogs to big wins over Hood River and Hillsboro over the past three weeks. First pitch is set for 5 p.m. at Marist Catholic High School in Eugene. Tigers ready for title defense STANFIELD — The Stanfield baseball team put together an incredible run to a state champion- ship in 2016, and now the Tigers are ready to do it again this year. The Tigers start the Class 3A state tournament as the No. 1 seed, after completing a 22-2 overall HERMISTON HERALD HERMISTON HERALD FILE PHOTO Hermiston pitcher Janelle Almaguer winds up in the May 2 game against Pendleton at Steve Cary Field. record and a perfect 15-0 mark in the Eastern Ore- gon League. They start the tournament bearing the best offense in Class 3A, compiling 311 total runs — an average of 12.9 per game. The first team stand- ing in the Tigers way is the No. 16 Catlin Gabel Eagles, the second place finisher in the Lewis & Clark league. The first round match-up will take place on Wednesday with first pitch set for 4 p.m. at Madigan Field in Stan- field. The Eagles went 10-8 overall and 8-4 in league play, and managed just 5.4 runs per game and allow an average of 4.8 runs. The two teams played just one common oppo- nent this season, Rainier, whom Stanfield swept 4-3 and 3-2 in a doublehead- er on April 1. Meanwhile Catlin Gabel was swept by Rainier in three games this season by a combined score of 24-3.

A large leak in Blue Mountain Community Col- lege’s swimming pool may force the college to perma- nently close the pool a year early. The college considered closing the ailing pool in the spring 2016, but after gathering public input and working with local swim teams agreed to keep it open through 2018. But Casey White-Zollman, vice president of communica- tions, said a “significant leak” has been discovered that could be too costly to repair. The college drains the pool for maintenance each summer after local high schools and the Pendleton Swim Association finish their season. This year’s closure is set for June 2. White-Zollman said at that point a contractor will be able to fully assess the leak and give the college an esti- mate on repairs. The agreement be- tween BMCC, Hermiston High School, Pendleton High School and Pend- leton Swim Association included $25,000 from the college and $25,000 split between the other swim teams for mainte- nance over the two extra years of operation. But White-Zollman said a clause in the agreement would allow the college to close the pool early if needed repairs exceed that amount. She said BMCC has kept all three swim teams apprised of the latest de- velopment and they will know more after the pool is drained June 2. The college is not currently scheduling swim classes for the fall.
