NEWS&COMMUNITY
Is Now the Time to Incorporate?
Chamber, CAC to jointly host Feb. 23 town hall on incorporating Pacific City Would you support Pacific City becoming a city? Do you want to know more before answering “yes” or “no” to that question? The Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce and the Pacific City-Woods Citizens Advisory Committee are jointly hosting a Feb. 23 community town hall meeting that will seek to present the facts, both pro and con, of incorporating as a city. The free public meeting will run 6:30-8:30 p.m. at Kiawanda Community Center, 34600 Cape Kiwanda Dr., Pacific City. Currently, no community in South Tillamook County is incorporated, while most of our neighbors in the north part of the county are. And that means that general government services such as land use planning, law enforcement, and road maintenance are provided by Tillamook County. The town hall will address what it would
take for Pacific City — or any other South Tillamook County community — to incorporate, and is billed as a “just the facts” town hall as neither the Chamber or the CAC has come out with a position in support of, or in opposition to, incorporation. Amongst the items the Chamber says will be addressed are the requirements to becoming a city, what services could be provided, and the advantages and disadvantages of local control. There will also be an opportunity to view a sample city budget as well as plenty of time for questions. The panel leading the discussion will include both the executive director and members services director of the League of Oregon Cities, Manzanita Mayor Garry Bullard, Manzanita city manager Jerald Taylor, and Bay City Mayor Shaena Peterson. Also scheduled to attend is the Tillamook County trea-
surer, Tillamook County Commissioners Chief of Staff and the city recorder for Bay City. The Chamber held a similar town hall about 10 years ago. At that time, a straw poll showed little support for incorporating Pacific City. However, things may have changed, says Chamber board member Doug Olson, who notes that there is considerable money on the table via the Transient Lodging Tax. Pacific City has contributed more than $900,000 to the TLT in the last year. While 70 percent of that would still need to be used for tourism marketing or tourist-related facilities, the remaining 30 percent of those funds would have no such strings attached. For more information on the upcoming town hall, visit www.pcnvchamber.org or watch for the Sun’s detailed pre-event coverage in the Feb. 19 edition.
Visit Tillamook Coast vets applications for tourism-related projects Visit Tillamook Coast has had their recently received 17 applications for its phase 2 Transient Lodging Tax facilities grant vetted by legal counsel and all have been declared as legally eligible for the grant. Applicants will make presentation on their grant proposals at the Tourism Advisory Committee’s March 8 meeting. The TAC is charged with scoring and ranking the applications and then pass the applications on to the Economic Development Council, who will, in turn, make recommendations to Tillamook County Commissioners. The 17 applications are: City of Rockaway Beach, $18,250 for the completion to an upgrade to the kitchen in the civic facility’s event space; Kiawanda Community Center (sponsored by the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District), $339,148 for a 2,000 square foot
addition to its current facility; Nestucca Valley Community Alliance (sponsored by Tillamook Lightwave), $97,812 for a 60-space parking lot for the proposed 2.2-acre Pacific City community park and skate park; North County Recreation District, $40,000 for a parking lot and storm water renovation to NCRD facilities; TAPA, $29,800 to build an ADA bathroom for theater goers; Tillamook County, $74,537 for Cloverdale wayside; Tillamook Forest Heritage Trust (sponsored by Port of Tillamook), $100,000 to fund a Supplemental Planning Project of the 26-mile coast segment of the Salmonberry Trail; Tillamook County, $50,000 to support a two-year, fulltime project manager position for the Salmonberry Trail; Tillamook Forest Center (sponsored by the Oregon Dept. of Forestry), $80,000 to support the construction of an education pavil-
ion at the center; City of Manzanita, $30,000 to fund the finalization and design for the 1.6-mile segment of the Oregon Coast Trail link to Neahkahnie Mountain; Rockaway Beach, $26,069 for repair to the Caboose at Rockaway Beach; City of Tillamook, $100,000 for Carnahan Boat Dock replacement and ramp repair; Tillamook Urban Renewal Agency, $40,000 for renovations to Tillamook City Hall lobby to create a suitable display for artwork including a 1943 mural; Port of Garibaldi, $57,450 for an event center tent and event equipment; Tillamook County Parks Dept., $132,659 for the Cape Kiwanda Beach Access Improvement; Twin Rock Friends Camp, $77,500 for the installation of a triple line and climbing wall; and, finally, the City of Tillamook, $31,454 for the Tillamook Bike and Skate Park.
IRS scam callers active in Tillamook County and around the state According to the Tillamook Co. Sheriff’s Office, Tillamook County has been amongst the areas targeted by “an aggressive and sophisticated phone scam targeting taxpayers.” Though callers claim to be employees of the IRS, they are not. Scammers use fake names and bogus IRS identification badge numbers in the ruse. They may know a lot about their targets, and they usually alter the caller ID to make it look like the IRS is calling. Victims are told they owe money to the IRS and it must be paid promptly through a pre-loaded debit card or wire transfer. If the victim refuses to
cooperate, they are then threatened with arrest, deportation or suspension of a business or driver’s license. In many cases, the caller becomes hostile and insulting. Several of the recent calls have told the victims, once they received their money, to go verify their signature at the Sheriff’s Office. Some victims have been told they have a refund due to try to trick them into sharing private information. If the phone isn’t answered, the scammers often leave an “urgent” callback request. According to the Tillamook Co. Sheriff’s Office, the IRS will never: one, call to demand immediate payment,
nor will the agency call about taxes owed without first having mailed you a bill; two, demand that you pay taxes without giving you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe; three, require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, such as a prepaid debit card; four, ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone; or five, threaten to bring in local police or other law-enforcement groups to have you arrested for not paying. For more details on this ongoing scam, visit www.irs.gov/uac/IRSUrges-Public-to-Stay-Alert-for-ScamPhone-Calls.

TALKBACK Heart's Desire will not hold 2016 event To the Editor: Community Arts Project (CAP) is sad to report that it will not be presenting its annual fundraising event, Your Heart’s Desire, this year due to staffing and resource changes. As readers surely know, this is a big event requiring much planning and organizing. It is CAP’s hope that this popular mid-winter celebration of chocolate, wine, and art will return in some form in February 2017, as so many community members look forward to it each year and it has been a successful fundraising activity for CAP’s Art Literacy Program in schools. CAP is so grateful for all the generous community support for this event over the past 11 years, from sponsors, donors, volunteers, artists, dessert bakers, and attendees.
This year, even though the event was not scheduled to take place, many loyal sponsors from previous years made generous donations directly to the Art Literacy Program. CAP would like to express its sincere gratitude for this exceptional support from Cape Kiwanda RV Resort, Inc., Rosenberg Builders Supply, The Sportsman’s Pub-n-Grub, Tillamook Vision Center, Tillamook County Creamery Association, Anchorage Motel, and Inn at Pacific City. Thank you, all. Kim Cavatorta Community Arts Project Board member Hebo, Oregon The Pacific City Sun welcomes reader input. Please send Letters to the Editor via e-mail: tim@pacificcitysun.com. Submissions may be edited for length and grammar. Please be respectful and limit submissions to approximately 350 words.

Mastering the Plan Starts with the Community By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
T
ake millions of visitors, add hundreds of problems and conflicts and what do you get? For the residents of Pacific City, the most likely answer is the summer scene at Cape Kiwanda when tourists descend on our loved playground. The problem, say some, is that it is being loved to death. Enter the Cape Kiwanda Master Plan, which is being funded by a $95,000 grant from the county’s Transient Lodging Tax. Still in its infancy, Tillamook County and the company it has employed to craft a plan for the future, Cogan Owens Green, LLC, began its public outreach effort on Thursday, Feb. 4, when it held its first of three public sessions designed to get the local take on what’s needed, what’s wanted and what’s dreamed about in terms of improvement to the use of Cape Kiwanda and the surrounding area.

Serven said that Nestucca’s years of absence in All-State shouldn’t be perceived as a lack of talent in the school but a recognition of a couple of factors: one, the recorded auditions are due just one month into the school year; and, two, in years past, OMEA has focused awarding the bigger 5A and 6A schools the relevant spots. “They really made a concerted effort to represent the small schools up to 4A this year,” Serven said about this year’s event.

wo Nestucca High School students recently were honored with a distinction that has been rare at the school — a spot in “All State” honor concerts held by Oregon Music Education Association. Nestucca senior Miranda White, who plays the clarinet, is the first Nestucca High band student to go to state since 2005. At the event, which was held in Eugene’s Hult Center, Jan. 16-17, she played in the All-State Symphonic Band. And White wasn’t the only Nestucca High School musical talent at the event. Cameron Weger also participated as she was selected for the all-state women’s chorale. “As an audience member, both performances were breathtaking,” said Kathleen Serven, director for the school’s band and choir programs. “Cameron said that being on that stage was amazing and Miranda said it was an incredible experience playing with the band.” The week before, others — both in the junior and senior high school — got a taste of the limelight as well as they performed at District III Honor Band and Choir concerts held in St. Helens, Jan. 8-9.

NEWS&COMMUNITY ODFW seeks Access and Habitat Board rep ODFW is recruiting for a hunter representative position to serve on the statewide Access and Habitat Board, a post that helps to provide hunting access and improve habitat on private land. Applications are due by Feb. 29. Those with an interest and experience in hunting and wildlife conservation are encouraged to apply. For more information, call Isaac Sanders at 503-947-6087 or visit www. dfw.state.or.us/lands/AH/get_involved.asp for application forms and more information. The Access and Habitat Program is funded by a $4 surcharge on hunting licenses. Funds are distributed through grants to individual and corporate landowners, conservation organizations, and others for wildlife habitat improvement and projects to provide hunter access throughout the state. The Board is made up of seven volunteers — three landowner representatives, three hunter representatives, and the chair. Together, they review and recommend wildlife habitat improvement and hunting access projects to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission. Board members, who are appointed to four-year terms by the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission, meet four times each year in various communities throughout the state to review project funding applications, hear public testimony and act as liaisons between the program and the public.
School District to hold Feb. 9 visioning workshop The public is welcome to attend a Feb. 9 visioning workshop for Nestucca Valley School District facilities for the coming year. The workshop, which will be held at the high school library, starting at 5:30 p.m., is part of an ongoing series, which happens annually to give district staff a chance to prepare for the near future. “Our focus at these workshops is to assess the condition of our facilities and to explore possible grant and bond opportunities that will help us address any problems,” said Misty Warton, elementary school principal. “There will be an architect at this next one, so though we won't be taking public comment, attendees will learn a lot.”
Coast Guard calls off search for teen
Tillamook Co. Sheriff’s Office, Nestucca Fire & Rescue will continue to comb beach By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
B
oth the U.S. Coast Guard and Oregon State Police have called off the search for a missing 17-year-old girl, who reportedly fell into the water at Cape Kiwanda on Monday, Feb. 1. OSP reported that at 2:50 p.m. on Feb. 1, four youths were climbing on the cape when Megan Owens, 17, from Marysville, Washington, fell into the water. OSP troopers responded along with Tillamook County Sheriff’s deputies, Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District, Netarts/Oceanside Fire and Rescue, North Lincoln Fire and Rescue, Tillamook Ambulance, and the USCG. Based on his reports, Nestucca Fire training officer Jim Oeder, who served as the incident commander, said Owens apparently was down at the area commonly known as the Punch Bowl when the accident happened. “It sounds like she may have slipped on the rocks,” Oeder said, adding that her friends were reportedly trying to get her back in when a “wave hit her and drug her back out.” First on the scene was Nestucca Fire under the direction of Oeder. “Within the first 30 minutes, we had two helicopters, the motor lifeboat, North Lincoln and Netarts water rescue teams and our team doing ground searching,” Oeder told the Sun. The Coast Guard’s on-scene response included a MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew from Coast Guard Air Station Astoria, an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew from Coast Guard Air Facility Newport and a 47-foot motor life boat crew from Station Tillamook Bay. During the search, two local fire and rescue personnel, who were searching the area on personal watercraft, reportedly fell into the water as sea conditions began to worsen. One was airlifted by the Jayhawk crew and taken to the beach where, according to Oeder, he was evaluated by medical staff from Nestucca Fire and Tillamook Ambulance. He was then transported to Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital. The operator of the jet ski was able to swim back to shore. Oeder said he

MEGAN OWENS, 17, of Marysville, Washington, reportedly fell into the water while climbing at Cape Kiwanda on Monday, Feb. 1. Rescuers from Coast Guard Air Stations Astoria and Newport, Nestucca Fire, and water rescue teams from North Lincoln and Netarts were among those searching for the girl. walked out with emergency personnel crew and was later checked out at Samaritan North Lincoln. Oeder added that the two North Lincoln Fire rescuers are doing well and are expected to be able to return to work soon. The three individuals that Owens had been hiking with, who Oder said were “all wet and really cold,” were also evaluated by the ambulance crew. They were transported to Tillamook Regional Medical Center where chaplains from the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office met them. The weather at the time of the initial call was reported to be 8- to 10-foot swells with wind speeds of 5 to 10 mph. Aircraft from the USCG continued their search late into the night of Feb. 1. OSP troopers and Tillamook County deputies remained on the beach until search crews arrived early the morning of Feb. 2. Notification of those in-
volved and their families was done by the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office Chaplains. Oeder said that the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office and Nestucca Fire will continue their search for the “next week or so. “Both agencies are going to be doing patrols at times throughout the day,” he added. A NEED FOR EDUCATION Cape Kiwanda has a history of accidents and deaths including two in 2015 and seven in the last seven years. And that’s just the kind of record that has several people calling for action, including Nestucca Fire Chief Kris Weiland. For his part, Weiland, who was away at a conference when the Sun caught up with him on Feb. 3, said he intends to meet with representatives from the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon State Parks when he returns to see if signage or fencing can be added. Noting that its the tourists, not the locals that have been involved in these accidents, Weiland said he believes educating visitors will be an important tool in cutting down on tragedies such as this one. “We need to teach the people that don’t live on the coast the hazards of the coast,” he said. “It needs to be a part of an educational program that we take to the schools (in the Willamette Valley). It’s the people that don’t live here that don’t know (about the danger at the Cape).” Another possible deterrent was offered by longtime resident Pat Ireton, who told the Sun that he’d like to see a memorial put atop Cape Kiwanda to scare away those that might otherwise go into dangerous areas. Ireton remembers a visit to a beach in Hilo, Hawaii many years ago where he and his wife Pearl encountered a memorial for youths that were killed in 1952 from a tsunami. “It shocked both of us. It was so intense that we remember it 30 years later,” he said about seeing the sign. He says this experience makes him think that should a similar memorial be put up at Cape Kiwanda — an idea he has pushed Senator Arnie Roblan about — it just might discourage visitors from going into hazardous areas. “Its rather a mind blower to see that people have died,” Ireton said.

She joins Pacific City resident David Yamamoto, Wheeler Mayor Stevie Burden and Tillamook Futures Council vice-chair Jennifer Purcell in what is currently a four-person race for commissioner position no. 2 in the May 2016 election. “Trees, Cheese and Ocean Breeze — it’s the reason we live here,” wrote Peterson in a press release announcing her candidacy. “Loggers, farmers and fishermen are the backbone of Tillamook County.

Great Speaker Series to feature Robert Hamm Robert Hamm returns to the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum on Saturday, Feb. 13 to present “Becoming Oregon: From Expedition to Exposition,” as part of the Museum’s Great Speaker Series. Several years ago, Hamm visited Tillamook to talk about the maps that made Oregon what it is today. This time he will be explaining how the Lewis and Clark “Corps of Discovery” had an influence on how the state of Oregon developed and what effect the East Coast papers had on development of the wild west. Hamm started his teaching career in the Lake Oswego School District. After one year in the printing industry, he returned to the teaching profession, teaching English at Aloha High School in Beaverton and at West Linn High School. In the late 1980s, he moved with his family to Urbana, Illinois, where he was recruited to work for the National Council of Teachers of English. He and his family later returned to Oregon, and he was appointed building administrator at West Linn High School. Following that, he spent 10 years as director of personnel for the West Linn-Wilsonville School District. After retiring from the district, he was chosen to head up a new teacherpreparation program at the Oregon Campus of the University of Phoenix. The program is sponsored by the TCPM’s Daisy Fund and is free and open to all ages. For more information, call 503-842-4553.

THE NESKOWIN CHAMBER MUSIC SERIES will welcome Quatuor Danel to the Chapel at Camp Wi-Me-Ma for a 3 p.m. performance on Sunday, Feb. 14. The show will mark the fourth concert of the 2015-16 season.

Quatuor Danel will bring their interpretations of Haydn, Beethoven and Schubert to Neskowin on Feb. 14

Q
uatuor Danel, an internationally known string quartet specializing in unusual interpretations of Haydn, Beethoven, and Schubert will be featured at the Neskowin Chamber Music Series fourth concert of the 2015-16 season when they play at the Chapel at Camp Wi-Ne-Ma, Sunday, Feb. 14, starting at 3 p.m. Comprised of violinists Marc Danel and Gilles Millet, as well as viola player Vlad Bogdanas, and cellist Yovan Markovitch, Danel was founded in 1991 and has been known in the years since for its performances of the work of both classical and contemporary composers. They are now considered to be at the forefront of the European music scene because of their concert performances and a number of notable recordings. Along with traditional classic composers, Danel musicians pay special attention to Russian composers. They have championed the string quartets of Shostakovich. Indeed, their recently reissued recording of the complete cycle is considered by critics to be one of the finest interpretations of these quartets. In addition, they have recorded the unknown work of Mieczyslaw Weinberg, a long-neglected contemporary of Shostakovich. In addition to their advocacy of Russian music, members of Quatuor Danel enjoy teaching young
musicians in general and string quartets in particular. Teaching, outreach, and master classes are a key part of their activities. To this end, they have been Artist-in-Residence at the University of Manchester since 2005, working closely with musicologists Barry Cooper and David Fanning. Their CD recordings have also earned awards in the U.S. and various Europeans countries. Upcoming recording projects consist of three Tchaikovsky quarters, the Quartet and Piano Quintet by Franck, and a longer term project combining all the string quartets of Haydn and the late Beethoven. They are regular guests at many major European festivals. The group made their major North American debut at the Ottawa ChamberFest last summer. They come to Neskowin in the middle of a concert tour that will take them to major halls in Brussels, Amsterdam, Moscow, Paris, London, Madrid, Vienna, Milano, Tokyo, and New York. The group will also give a free concert on Monday, Feb. 15 at 10 a.m. at the Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church in Pacific City. Season tickets are on sale for $110 each. Individual tickets are $25. Call 503-965-6499 for more information. Camp Winema is located three miles north of Neskowin, just off Highway 101.

THIS STORE WAS FIRST BOUGHT by Jim Insine with four rentals in back and a Texaco gas pump in front. The Munstedts bought it after WWII and it was known as "Jack and Sally's." In 1969, it was bought by Anne and Don Turner, who added a second pump for ethyl gas and it became "Anne's Place." A fire destroyed it around 1979.

e are still firmly in the grips of El Niño’, though we did have a couple of days where the Nestucca River lowered enough to fish. Yes, we did get to fish two days and what a two days it was. We had 31 shuttles on Feb. 2 and in general the reports were very good. Almost everyone reported very good catches of multiple steelhead. The upper river produced better than the lower river. Drifters floating between Blaine and first Bridge in Beaver reported the best numbers. Steelhead were caught below that in the first bridge to Three Rivers drifts, but even though the numbers were good, they weren’t as spectacular as the upper drifts. Whenever you have high water for long periods of time, steelhead have ample opportunity to move far upstream and quickly, hence the large numbers of steelhead in the upper drifts. Most everything was working as is usually the case when there is good numbers of steelhead available. Offerings included bait such as eggs and or sand shrimp; lures, including Vibrax; Buds spinners and Rooster Tails; plugs like Hot Shots and Wiggle Warts; Jigs, mostly in brighter colors like pink, hot pink, and orange; Yarnies with mostly pink and cerise, and various shades of pink plastic worms — it was all working. We had an absolutely great two days. Fast forward to today, Feb. 4, the rains have returned, the river has risen nearly a foot, and once again the Nestucca River is a ghost town. We never know when we will get to fish again, but

we are keeping our fingers crossed hoping that the weather predictions of dryer weather come true. We had a boat over turn in the river just above first bridge. Everyone got out of the river safely but lots of gear, rods and reels were lost. When you reach the island above first bridge, you need to stay to the left. When you come into view of first bridge, you stay to the left of the island. It is actually better passage on the right side than it used to be because someone removed an overhanging tree stub that jutted out into the river that boaters could not avoid. That tree stub would turn your boat sideways, and then a huge rock under the water would catch the boat and flip it over. Even though the tree stub is gone, some boaters are not aware of the big rock under the surface and if you drift through sideways you can still catch the rock and flip the boat. It seems like this happens at least once every steelhead season. Because the water is higher than normal, the river flows are much swifter, and you can get into trouble in a hurry under high river flows. Care needs to be taken under these conditions and inexperienced boaters especially need to do some research on the various drifts on the river. For those with little or no previous experience, it is recommended that you launch at first bridge and pull out at Three Rivers. This is the easiest run on the river. A few trips down from first bridge will develop your skills as a boater and prepare you for some of the tougher drifts upstream. Knowing how your boat handles and functions under various conditions is the key to safe boating.

Bobcats rebound from tough loss with win against Gaston By SHIANA WEAVER for the Sun
T
he Nestucca Bobcats rebounded from a tough loss against the Life Christian Lions on Jan. 30, by easily topping the Gaston Greyhounds, 62-44, on Feb. 2. Though Nestucca head coach Jim Kiser credited Gaston with playing a lot better than the first time Nestucca faced them, the Bobcats were up to the challenge. “They shot pretty well, but we played well offensively and they didn’t have much of an answer for us defensively,” he said. It was a different story in the earlier game against the Lions. Although the ‘Cats played well in the first half and were up 25-16 at the break, they ran out of gas in the final quarter, eventually losing 52-38. “We didn’t get the balanced scoring on that night, and we turned the ball over a ton in the second half which hurt us a lot,” Kiser said. In early action, the Bobcats recorded a big win on Jan. 27 when they beat second-place City Christian, 47-43. It was a balanced effort with eight Bobcats in the scoring column, led by Brett Elder’s 16. Kiser said his team played really well in the first half, building a nine-point lead at halftime, but City made a big run in the third quarter, outscoring them 20-8 and taking a 35-32 lead. Though the quarter was a
back-and-forth affair the whole way, Cole Strober hit a game winning threepointer with 30 seconds left and the ‘Cats held on for the win. “We shot really well from the free throw line again, going 8-10 which helped a lot,” Kiser said. The Bobcats notched another win in a Jan. 22 game at Faith Bible, 49-29. Kiser said that victory was a big win for the team as it bumped them into the fifth place in the league. Beating a team that had already beaten them twice this season was another big plus. “It felt really good to get a decisive win over them,” Kiser said. “We shot the ball well including 17-22 from the free throw line and had eight guys score. We played rePhoto by Tim Hirsch ally well defensively and BRETT ELDER continues to be a key force for the frustrated them for most Bobcats, who are now in fifth place in the Northwest of the night.” League and fighting for a playoff spot.

Lady Bobcats beat Life Christian for the third time this season By SHIANA WEAVER for the Sun The Lady Bobcats survived a tight contest with Life Christian on Saturday, Jan. 30, besting the Lions, 33-31. With Life starting the game with only six players, head coach Tim Foster says he assumed they would come in strong. “I figured they would come out with some intensity, especially with us having beaten them twice in our earlier meetings,” said Foster. “This was a great game for us — it wasn’t that we played at a higher level or anything like that, but we dug in when we needed to and got scores when we needed to.” Life did not make it easy for Nestucca. Late in the game, the Lions hit a three and a free throw giving them a
four-point lead, 31-27. But with only a couple minutes to go, Alyssa Morgan brought the ‘Cats to within two after hitting a 12-footer and later found Tea Chatelain at the rim, who tied the game at 33 with about 40 seconds left. With tension running high, Morgan Kirkpatrick and Alyssa Morgan forced a jump ball on a rebound and the ‘Cats got possession. After Tea Chatelain missed a 15-footer, Life Christian got the rebound, but the ball was knocked out of bounds on Life’s end with only 22 seconds left. Nestucca’s Thelma Chavarin was able to corral a pass that hit the back of a Life Christian player, and with no timeouts, the Lady ‘Cats pushed the ball up the court. However, Nestucca turned the ball over, as did the Lions on the ensuing possession when they were called for a traveling violation, giving the
‘Cats the ball under their own basket. “We ran the same play Jaykayla had been fouled on before, but this time she hit the 12-footer with three seconds left, giving us the 33-31 victory,” Foster said. “It was really a game of perseverance for us. Can we come from behind and close out the game? We were determined, and we got it done.” Earlier in the week the Lady ‘Cats went head-to-head against fourth-place City Christian, losing 24-25. After leading 21-17 going into the final quarter, the girls struggled to get much offense going. “It was a good defensive game for us, but the struggle with turnovers was our downfall,” Foster added. The girls return to action Saturday, Feb. 6 when they face Knappa in Cloverdale. Game time is 4 p.m.
