The Hermiston Bulldogs football team stands for the national anthem before a home
football game at Kennison Field during the 2017 season. Hermiston won the Oregon
Schools Athletics Association football championship that season, then joined the
Washington Interscholastic Athletics Association and a league of teams from the
Tri-Cities because the school district had outgrown others in Eastern Oregon.
