T
he Banks Braves are set to defend
their 4A football state champion-
ship this weekend, when they face
La Grande at Hermiston High School (Sat-
urday, 6 p.m.).
Banks won its second straight Cowapa
League title with a 5-0 league record, and
recently swept the league’s Player of the
Year awards.
Banks senior Jarred Evans was named
Offensive Player of the Year, and senior
teammate Bryson Cook was selected as the
Defensive Player of the Year.
Banks coach Cole Linehan shared the
league’s Coach of the Year award with Sea-
side’s Aaron Tanabe, who led the Gulls to a
4-1 league record, 4-5 overall.
Seaside lost in the opening round of the
state playoffs, even with three all-league
running backs on the roster.
Juniors Aedyn Cook and Andrew Teub-
ner earned first team all-league honors,

while senior Jake Black was named honor-
able mention.
Seaside had three linebackers on the first
team: senior Levi Card, along with Teubner
and sophomore Lawson Talamantez. The
six-team Cowapa had 15 linebackers on the
all-league team.
Seniors Luke Nelson and David
Toyooka were selected as first team defen-
sive linemen, and Gulls’ senior Brayden
Johnson was selected as an honorable men-
tion defensive back.
Effective Jan. 1, the Sunset Empire Park
and Recreation District will prohibit the use
metal cleats on Broadway Field.
Metal cleats harm the field and causes
additional maintenance and resources by
the district, the district’s board of directors
determined on Tuesday, Nov. 19, in unani-
mously voting for Resolution No. 2019-09.
Skyler Archibald, the district’s executive
director, said that district users, including
Seaside Kids and the Seaside School Dis-
trict, are aware of the upcoming change.
“If there’s a situation, we’ll have to
stop the tournament and ask those players
to use different shoes for the tournament,”
Archibald said. “If we catch someone using
metal cleats, we’ll remove them for the rest
of the day, a second time, we’ll trespass
them from the field.”
Board member John Chapman said he
was concerned about clarifying potential
penalties and action for those who violate
the policy.
“We need something that states a guide-
line for failure to obey the rule,” he said. “If
you go to a hotel room and you ruin the bed,
you’re going to pay for the bed. If you wear
metal cleats on the field and you rip up the
turf you make cuts in it, you’ve got to pay
the cost of repair it, whether it’s $3,000 or
$4,000, you’ve got to pay for it. If there’s no
recourse, who’s paying that bill?”
“If we’ve had teams, programs and tour-
naments not adhere, we have billed those
teams directly for the staff time it took to
repair the field,” Archibald said.
After the vote for the new policy, board
members agreed to determine a penalty
structure in subsequent weeks.
“I wish that we had done this sooner, to
be honest,” Archibald said. “But it’s better
late than never.”
