Seaside Signal E UGENE — The Seaside Seagulls are not wasting any time in making them- selves the team to beat in 4A football. And if they weren’t one of the favorites before, they are now. The Gulls will certainly pick up some first-place votes in the coaches poll this week following an impres- sive 33-22 win Friday, Sept. 7, at No. 3-ranked Marist. It was a rare road trip for the Gulls, who have just three road games this season. Seaside gave up the first score, but an- swered with three touchdowns in the second quarter, and the Gulls were never threatened after that in their second straight win over a top 10-ranked team. Seaside handed the ball to Alex Teubner 32 times, and the state’s best running back re- sponded with 256 yards and four touchdowns, running his season total (through two games) to 477 yards rushing and 10 touchdowns. Teubner could reach the 1,000-yard mark by Seaside’s league opener, Sept. 21. He had TD runs of eight, seven, 26 and three yards, with Duncan Thompson adding a nine-yard scoring run. On the other side, Marist lost its top defen- sive player, 5A all-state linebacker Jacob Husk, to a shoulder injury in the first quarter. Trailing by 11 early in the fourth, the Spar- tans had a fourth-and-goal from the Seaside 1-yard line, when Teubner stuffed Marist run- ning back Lucas Patterson at the line, forcing a turnover on downs. The Gulls took over at their own 1 with 10:26 remaining, and Seaside’s 16-play drive ended up at the Marist 10 when time expired. Seaside hosts Gladstone 7 p.m. Friday at Broadway Field.

Sweet revenge There will be lots more goals to accom- plish and games to win, but for one night only in late August, revenge was sweet for the Sea- side Gulls. Facing the same team that ended their hopes and dreams in 2017, the Gulls opened 2018 with a win over the Henley Hornets, 55- 13, to avenge that loss and spark what they hope will be a state championship season. Seaside’s win over the Hornets at Broad- way Field will raise some eyes at the 4A level, as the Gulls overcame a couple of early turn- overs and thoroughly dominated a team that finished 2017 in the state quarterfinals. Ranked seventh in a pre-season coaches poll, Seaside put up 55 points against a team that had not given up that much since 2012.

He got stronger as the game progressed, and added 102 yards on just eight carries in the second half to finish with 221 yards on 22 totes. More importantly, Teubner was in the end zone six times, scoring on runs of 47 and 49 yards. He also had an interception on defense. Seaside quarterback Payton Westerholm was only 3-of-10 passing, but he averaged 23 yards per completion, and kept the chains moving when he had to. The Gulls racked up 443 yards in total of- fense, 374 on the ground. But the first score came through the air, as Westerholm opened the scoring with 9:45 left in the first quarter, tossing an 11-yard touch- down pass to Chris Avery. The next six touchdowns belonged to Teubner, whose 47-yard scoring jaunt with six seconds left in the first half basically put the game away. After giving up an 82-yard scoring drive to start the game, Seaside’s defense allowed just three first downs over the second and third quarters. The Hornets were just 3-for-13 on third down conversions. After scoring on its opening drive, Henley could only manage two field goals from Brian Baker (26 and 34 yards) the remainder of the game. Seaside’s Gio Ramirez added 61 yards rush- ing, which included a 48-yard run late in the third quarter to set up a 1-yard blast by Teubner. The Gulls’ second-string offense even put together an eight-play, 57-yard drive late in the fourth quarter, with Jake Black scoring from a yard out, and Aedyn Cook adding the two-point conversion. The Gulls head south later this week, for a nonleague game Friday at Marist. GARY HENLEY/SEASIDE SIGNAL ALEX TEUBNER Football The senior opened his final season by rushing for 221 yards and six touchdowns (22 carries) in a 55-13 win over Henley Aug. 31. Teubner followed that with a four-touchdown, 256-yard ef- fort in a 33-22 victory over No. 3-ranked Marist Sept. 7. Through just two games, Teubner is near- ly halfway to 1,000, with 477 yards rushing and 10 touch- downs. Hole- in-one Tony Vowles of Bellev- ue, Washington recorded a hole-in-one, Aug. 17 at the Highlands Golf Course in Gearhart. Vowles aced the 91-yard, par 3 fifth hole us- ing a lob wedge. SOCCER Boys blank Scappoose Seaside Signal SCAPPOOSE — Scap- poose has moved up a level to Class 5A, but that did not change anything between the Indians and the Seaside boys soccer team Sept. 4. The Gulls — expected to challenge for a 4A state title — showed that they’ve still got the better team, with a 3-0 win over Scappoose in a game between the former Cowapa League rivals. Since 2007, Seaside holds a 16-3-5 record over Scappoose. Cubs 1, Gulls 0 Two teams that may meet up down the road met Aug. 28 in Seaside, where the Gulls hosted Newport in a nonleague boys soccer match. And the Cubs got the best of Seaside once again, 1-0. Ranked No. 1 in the state entering the playoffs last year, the Gulls suffered an upset loss to Newport in a quarterfinal game at Broad- way Field, as Newport won 2-1 on a late score, with just 10 players on the field. In Tuesday’s rematch, the Cubs scored on a free kick with 15 minutes re- maining, and held off the Gulls for the shutout win. “It was a great game,” said Seaside coach John Chapman. “I thought we had a slight advantage in the first half, and they (the Cubs) made some adjust- ments in the second half, which was 50-50. It real- ly could have gone either way.” Lady Gulls score wins Seaside Signal Seaside took advantage of a pair of penalty kicks on the final 15 minutes to post a 2-1 win over Estacada, in a nonleague girls soccer game Sept. 8 at Broadway Field. Trailing 1-0, a foul in the penalty area gave Seaside’s Chloe Bartel the first penalty kick, which she placed into the upper left corner of the net. Minutes later, a hand ball resulted in a penalty kick for Katie Zagata, who made the shot for the game-winner for the Gulls. Gulls 5, Rainier 0 RAINIER — After open- ing the season with a loss and a tie, the Seaside girls soccer team scored its first victory of the year Sept. 4, a 5-0 deci- sion at Rainier. The Columbians started with just 10 players and were down to eight by the end of the game. “Credit to Rainier for just playing,” said Seaside coach Josh Garhofer. “And their girls are tough, even when they went two players down.” Still, it wasn’t enough to keep up with the Gulls, whose first goal was scored by fresh- man Emma Arden. “Our midfielders all played well, Chloe (Bartel), Maddy (Brown) and Jess (Angulo-Joli), our striker who started the game on de- fense.” Seaside used three play- ers in goal, with Taylor Car- son playing the first half, and Kara Spell and Audrey Kunde in the second.
