PHOTO GALLERY/Taft opens hectic home sports schedule

PHOTOS BY LON FRENCH

As if hosting the top-ranked Class 3A football team in the state on Friday isn’t enough, Taft High begins a busy slate of home sports competition Tuesday with two events, followed by games every day this week.

The week will culminate with the Taft High Booster Auction, from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 29, at the Lincoln City Beach Club and Events Center, 2020 NE 22nd Street.

Home soccer matches will be contested Tuesday through Thursday, with two home volleyball matches and a road cross country meet in between.

The athletic competition will culminate at 7 p.m. Friday at Voris Field when the Tigers take on No. 1-ranked Amity in its football league opener. The unbeaten Warriors have outscored their four non-conference opponents 206-34 (51.5 to 8.5 points per game) this season.

The 1-3 Tigers are coming off a 28-25 home loss to Yamhill-Carlton, captured above and below by freelance photographer Lon French.
