A10 • HERMISTONHERALD.COM PREP ROUNDUP BASEBALL Hermiston tennis has tough opening week HERMISTON HERALD Hermiston opened its tennis season on the road, where both the girls and boys teams suffered losses to Hanford (WA). The girls lost 7-0 to a tough Falcon squad. “It was a lot of first match jitters,” head coach Jason Sivey said. The Bulldogs’ No. 1 sin- gles player, Mackenzie Hill, had one of the best matches of the day. She only dropped the first of two matches 5-7 against Celeste Pe. Pe would go on to win the set (5-7, 1-6) and the Falcons kept building after that. For the boys, they were able to get one set in but ultimately lost 6-1. The Hermiston girls team took the court again Thurs- day, and had a rough go against the Southridge Suns, dropping all eight matches. “Similar to our Han- ford match (on Tuesday), we struggled to play our game and hit the shots we know how to hit,” Sivey said. “Overall the team kept fighting hard and never gave up ... I’m proud that we con- tinue to play hard even when we are down.” Sivey pointed out fresh- men doubles pair Ashlyn Hofbauer and Violet Mitch- ell’s performance, as they had the closest match of the day falling 6-4, 6-3 to Southridge’s Julia Crawford and Brianna Cosineau. Again for the boys, the Bulldogs had a tough out- ing. They fell 7-0 to South- ridge with senior Jason Morris having the most notable day. Morris put up a good fight but ultimately fell to his opponent. In Hermiston’s early matches, the Bulldogs have yet to be at full strength but once they are, head coach Shann West is confident they will turn things around. Against Walla Walla on Saturday, doubles pair Pat- rick Wicks and Thomas McCullough saw some of that success when the duo picked up Hermiston’s lone win. The Bulldogs eventu- ally lost 1-7 to fall to 0-3 on the season. Both teams will play at home for the first time Fri- day when they host Pasco (WA). WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21, 2018 SPORTS and Kelly beat Helix’s Bryce Fairchild 8-3. And in boys doubles, Weston-McEwen’s Calvin Papineau/Lebraun Albert defeated Umatilla’s Chris Self/Connor Journey 8-4 and Alex Wood/Noah Kelly defeated Trevor Reiner/ Caesar De La Cruz of Uma- tilla 8-5. On the girls side, the TigerScots were 2-1 as Ten- ley Alderson won her sin- gles match over Helix’s Noelle Texidor by an 8-1 score, and doubles team of Emma Olson/Cloe Davis defeated Umatilla’s Deanna Self/Marisol Munoz 8-1. Umatilla’s Junior Corea defeated Weston-McEw- en’s Caleb Mann 8-4 in boys singles action and Yessenia Garcia defeated Weston-McEwen’s Krysta Calvert 8-5 in girls singles. Boys doubles pair of Car- los Ortega/Cameron Mealey also picked up a win over Weston-McEwen’s Cam- eron Curtaindale/Taylor Swafford 8-0. Hermiston fares well in first track meet of season The Bulldogs opened their track season Tuesday on the road in Hood River. Leading the charge on the track for Hermiston were sprinters Jonathan Hin- kle and Scout Regan. Both swept in the 100- and 200- meter races. In the boys 400-meter race, the Bulldogs took sec- ond and third place when Deryk Anderson finished in 57.77 and Guiomar Garay clocked 59.33, respectively. Isaac Sanchez, who was a force to be reckoned with during the cross country season, won the boys 800- meter race (2:02.37) and in the 1,500-meters, Hermis- ton swept the field as only four Bulldogs participated in the event. They were led by Angel Benites Vera, who finished in 4:36.82. In the 110- and 300- meter hurdles, Tyler Rohr- man impressed in his first outing. He finished the 110- meter race in 15.38 — more than one second ahead of the rest of his competition — and the 300-meter race more than two seconds in front of the rest of the field (43.14). The Bulldogs also cleaned up in the 4-400- meter relay where Sanchez ran as the anchor. The group of Freddy Mendoza, Jacob McCabe, Guiomar Garay and Sanchez grabbed first place in 3:45.93. The girls team also had many notable finishes. In the 800-meter race, Amanda Nygard just missed a first place finish. In her first sea- son on the track for the Bull- dogs, Nygard placed second in 2:35.28. A Hermiston trio swept the 1,500-meter race. She- lia Solorio (5:31.53), Sidney Tovey (5:34.45) and Juli- anna Joyce (5:43.02) fin- ished first, second and third respectively. In both hurdle races, Madison Wilson took first place handily. In the 110- meter race, Wilson fin- ished in 15.77 and in the 300-meters she clocked 49.74. For the field events, Hermiston again took top spots including the boys shot put, were Antonino Fer- nandez (45-08.00) and Eric White (42-04.00) placed first and second, respectively. White did grab a first place finish in javelin after recording 145-08.00. In the girls shot put event, Stephanie Miears finished first (37-04.00) and she also led a sweep in discus. WE HEAR YOU!

Renata Anderson, MA Pam Wagenaar, Administrative Assistant 2237 SW Court, Pendleton 541-276-5053 • www.renataanderson.com son started and struck out two in two innings and Wil- son allowed only two walks in the final three frames. Moises Garcilazo had a team-best three hits, while Noah Holford, Seth Cran- ston, Wilson and Samson each had two hits. Umatilla had a quick turnaround and returned to the diamond Friday, when the Vikings were at the wrong end of a walk-off vic- tory, as Portland Christian earned a 7-6 victory in seven innings in Portland. The Vikings (2-1) had just tied the game at 6-6 in the top of the seventh when Seth Cranston drew a walk, and then moved around the bases on a Portland Chris- tian error before scoring from third on a passed ball. In the bottom of the seventh, with Cranston pitching, Portland Christian’s Nelson Marshall led off with a sin- gle, advanced to third on a wild pitch and a passed ball and then scored the winning run on a single to right field by Nathan Hansen. Cranston was Umatil- la’s top hitter as he went 2 for 3 with two doubles, two runs scored and three RBI. Andrew Wilson also had a double. Kole Keller pitched well for the Vikings, tossing 5 2/3 innings while allow- ing three hits six runs (one earned) with five strikeouts. The two teams were sup- posed to play a double- header, however the second game was called in the third inning due to darkness with Umatilla trailing 2-1. The Vikings will con- tinue their road stint at the Iron Triangle Tournament on Friday. DUFUR 14, RIVER- SIDE 10 — The Riverside Pirates opened their season Tuesday with a tough loss to Dufur. It was reminiscent of the first game last sea- son where Riverside also dropped the game 10-0. This time around, the Pirates (0-1 overall) were able to get some offense going against the Rangers (1-0) but it wasn’t enough for the win. Heppner faced Pilot Rock in both teams season open- ers. The Rockets came out on top, defeating the Mus- tangs 9-2. Bryson Pierce and Logan Weinke combined to throw six solid innings for the Rockets, allowing four hits and two unearned runs with eight strikeouts. Weinke added one hit at the plate — a double — with two runs scored and two RBI and Chris Weinke also had a double with two runs scored and one RBI. Coby Dougherty, Beau Wolters, Tyler Carter and Wyatt Steagall tallied the four hits for the Mustangs. Kannon Wilkins got the start on the mound and took the loss allowing six runs total with three strikeouts in two innings, and Steagall threw 3 1/3 solid innings of relief. Just days later, the Mus- tangs suffered another big loss but this time is was at the hands of Irrigon. The Knights put together a 11-1 victory to push Heppner’s record to 0-2. The Mustangs had one more game on the road before returning home. They faced Pilot Rock/ Nixyaawii on Tuesday. Results of the game were not available at press time. Umatilla comes out of tough weekend ahead In Touchet, the Uma- tilla Vikings piled up 28 hits and 24 runs as they thumped Touchet (WA) last Tues- day in a season-opening doubleheader. In Game 1, the Vikings (2-0) were led by Kole Keller. On the mound, Keller started and threw four com- plete innings, allowing only one hit, one run, three walks with three strikeouts. And at the plate, Keller was 3 for 4 with three RBI. Freshman James Wilson closed out the game with two innings on the mound, allowing just one hit with two strikeouts. In Game 2, Cody Sam- son and Andrew Wilson combined to throw five solid innings on the mound. Sam- continued from Page A9 walk with no hits, no runs and nine strikeouts. Mer- cado struck out 13 Tigers in six innings, allowing just one hit and one run. TCP got on the board after Woods was lifted in the fifth and scored once in the fifth and three times in the sixth. Stanfield made a comeback in the seventh. Woods led off the inning with a single — the team’s first hit of the game — fol- lowed by TJ Smith dou- bling and Shayne Keltz reaching on a dropped third strike to load the bases with no outs trailing 4-0. Damian Curiel then hit into an RBI ground- out to bring home Woods, and Makiah Blankenship brought in a pair on a single to right field. And with the tying run on third with one out, Dillon Dunlap hit into a game-ending double play. The second game was all offense, no pitching with a combined 25 runs and 19 hits between the teams. Stanfield led 9-7 as TCP went to bat in the bottom of the third, but then TCP scored a whopping eight runs in the frame to grab ahold of the lead at 15-9 and didn’t look back. In that game, Justin Kee- ney, Woods, and Curiel each had two hits to lead the Tigers. Hunter McCanch also had a triple. Stanfield’s next game was Tuesday again in Washington. The results of the matchup between White Salmon and the Tigers were not available at press time. ———— Game 1 R H E SHS 000 000 3 — 3 3 5 TCP 000 013 X — 4 2 1 (S) B. Woods, T. Smith (5) and A.
