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).

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.

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.
