Cavens got better as the season went on,
pitching two of the biggest games of his
career in the Northwest Regional Tourna-

Catcher Vince Ampi is headed to West-

from Roseburg to Monmouth recently as
former Dr. Stewart’s player and coach
Jeremiah Robbins, a Douglas High gradu-
ate, has taken over WOU.
Roseburg graduate Blake Keitzman
earned Division II All-American honors

last June. Former Docs Chad Lynch and
Eric Savage were on the Wolves’ roster
this past season and Kellen Walker is on
Robbins’ coaching staff.
Utility infielder and designated hitter
Jered Stoffal is going to play at Skagit Val-

Pitcher Chris Case, who had his Legion
career cut short by a shoulder injury but
pitched big games for the Docs the past
two seasons, is going to play at College of
the Siskiyous in Weed, Calif.

with five of those wins coming in the post-
season. WNC has seen numerous players
come from southern Oregon, including
Jordan Lewis, Cole Rohrbough and Logan
Odom from Medford and Jake Waarden-
burg from Klamath Falls.
Johnny Farrington started each of the
past two summers at shortstop for the Docs
and was the starting second baseman in
2008 beside Boone. They’ll both play at
Biola, located in Los Angeles.
After starting his playing career at
Northwest Nazarene in Idaho, Boone
transfered and flourished at Biola. The
2008 Roseburg grad hit .388, scored a
team-high 52 runs for the Eagles and was
named a Golden State Athletic Conference
all-star.
Priestley heads to Linfield to play foot-
ball and baseball. Priestley was a defensive
stalwart for the Docs and Roseburg High
as a third baseman, but also pitched some
big games.
Cavens plans on walking on at Linfield
after spending last spring at Oregon Tech.

Eugene 7-9, Docs 6-6
EUGENE — Dr. Stewart’s experienced
familiar conference road woes, losing
leads in both games of what turned into
one of its most frustrating doubleheaders
of the summer at Swede Johnson Stadium.
The Docs, entering the games at 3-1 in
Area 4 action, came out crisp after a week-
long break, taking a 6-0 lead off the bat
before blowing it. They went up 3-1 in
Game 2, but still lost despite Vince Ampi’s
two home runs.

FLORENCE — Eleven first-inning runs
were plenty for starter Jared Priestley, who
made his first start of the year to the tune
of a complete-game shutout. While Priest-

er, Derek, helped him out with a home run
while Johnny Farrington and Mitch Huff
had four hits each. Everyone in the lineup
had at least two hits to their credit.

WORLD SERIES
Eden Prairie, Minn. 13, Docs 6
SPOKANE, Wash. — Dr. Stewart’s first
American Legion World Series game in 26
years was a bit of a dud as the Docs com-
mitted seven errors, leading to six unearned
runs.
Because of ALWS opening ceremonies,
start time was pushed back to 9:20 p.m.
and the game didn’t end until 12:40.

SPOKANE, Wash. — Trailing 8-4 in the
seventh, Dr. Stewart’s was facing the
proposition of a dissatisfying two-and-out
stay at the ALWS. Then Cameron Newell
hit a two-run home as part of a six-run sev-
enth inning and caught the final out of the
game on a screaming line drive.
Brandon Jackson capped his Docs pitch-
ing career by gutting out a complete game,
and drove in the eventual winning run in
the eighth inning. Jackson was tagged for
10 runs, but only five of them earned
thanks to five more Docs errors.

like the season of comebacks was coming
to an end, Dr. Stewart’s produced one
more rally. Vince Ampi’s three-run home
run completed a rally from a 5-1 deficit
ROB McCALLUM/The News-Review and Dakota Cavens was perfect in 3 2/3
innings of relief.
