BRIEF Hermiston rallies over Richland PHOTO COURTESY OF BEV MANSANAREZ Staff writer Alexis Mansanarez poses during one final stroll through Butte Park in Hermiston. By ALEXIS MANSANAREZ STAFF WRITER I wasn’t sure what to expect, if I’m being honest. I knew that my first job out of college would most likely be in a small town, but moving from Seattle to Hermiston was ... a change to say the least. No more UberEats, no more Uber and definitely none of the con- venience living in a big city can bring. But something happened my very first day that sums up my entire 11 months here. I was in the Starbucks drive- thru (of course) and when I pulled up to the window to pay for and grab my coffee, the barista told me the person ahead of me already took care of it. I was so happy I called my father to gloat about my free grande drip. I went on to tell him how something like that had never happened to me before, and that this town had made a good first impression. The football state champion- ship that followed didn’t hurt and the countless athletes, coaches, parents and fans I met along the way made my short stay here all the more special. I want to thank you for letting a stranger into your town, your lives and the cherished sport community in Hermiston, Pend- leton and all throughout Uma- tilla and Morrow counties. The memories, friends and experiences I have made and had in Hermiston will stay with me forever. It was here where I was reminded day in and day out why I chose this crazy career. I smiled as teams, athletes and coaches hoisted trophies and celebrated championships and I was heartbroken when local teams came up just short of the postseason. Throughout both counties, I was continually impressed with the talent and grit every single student possessed and as some- one who didn’t play sports in high school, I was also con- stantly amazed by how much athleticism was on display. Each game on different fields and inside different gyms, I was welcomed by kind coaches and talented athletes. I hope I did your stories justice, and I hope that whoever comes next will find the same joy I did in a city ‘where life is sweet.’ ——— Alexis Mansanarez has been a sports reporter for the Hermis- ton Herald and East Oregonian since August 2017 and is leav- ing for a new job at the end of this week.

Hermiston Legion put up a two spot in the top of the seventh to secure a win over Richland on July 4. It was the team’s third win in 11 games. The team has yet to unlock all of its poten- tial but the late rally in the Tri Cities showed prom- ise against a tough future WIAA opponent. Hermiston (6-18) took a very early 1-0 lead after the top half of the opening frame but a powerful Rich- land offense was on display and the home team got back out in front, 2-1, after the first. Each team scored three runs in the fifth to keep the advantage in Rich- land’s favor, 5-4, but Tick and Checho Rosales each brought home runners on RBI single line drives to center field to ultimately put Hermiston on top. Rustin Edmiston was awarded the win after pitch- ing 2 1/3 innings of relief. Edmiston allowed only one hit and struck out one bat- ter while toeing the rubber. Seth Prewitt got the start for Hermiston and lasted three innings before being replaced in favor of Ethin Randolph.
