Enterprise’s football season came to an end Friday afternoon with a 36-24 loss at Imbler.

As with most of the rest of the season, the Outlaws kept the score close — this time with an effective passing game, despite losing starting lineman Clint Norton to a dislocated knee in the first quarter.

Senior quarterback Tate Olson completed 19 of 25 passes for 189 yards and tallied a 119.5 quarterback rating on the day.

“I think it was the best game of his whole high school career,” said Enterprise coach Mike Rowley. “He did a fabulous job out there. He directed the kids and they did great.”

Junior Trent Walker led the receiving corps with seven catches for 70 yards and three touchdowns. Senior Clayne Miller had six receptions for 75 yards, and junior Trent Sneed added three catches for 21 yards.

Senior running back Trent Bales carried the ball 27 for 83 yards.

“Trent Bales worked hard and the whole offensive line worked hard,” Rowley said.

The Outlaws led nearly every offensive category other than rushing yards and compiled 315 yards of offense to Imbler’s 307.

Defensively, Bales led with six solo tackles, including a sack and four assists. Senior Matt McTee had six solo tackles, while Walker racked up five solo tackles and an assist.

“We were down five players from the start of the year due to injuries,” Rowley said. “A bunch of those kids stepped up and played awesome. I thought it was a really good game.”

The Outlaws compiled an 0-3 league record and were 1-6 overall.

Despite the record, Rowley said his team made strides forward this year.

”The kids made big improvements over last year, and I think a lot of people can see that. We scored more points in our first three games than in all of last year. … To be honest, we just had a pretty good group of kids. I give them all the credit and always will.”

Joseph traveled to Adrian for a league playoff game Friday night and came up short in a 40-36 loss to the Antelopes.

“We had the ball twice with four minutes remaining, and we just couldn’t keep our drives going,” Joseph head coach Toby Koehn told The La Grand Observer.

Joseph trailed 34-28 at halftime and neither team managed a score in the fourth quarter.

Senior running back Cayden DeLury rushed for 349 yards and three touchdowns, and Logan Welch added 71 yards and two scores.
