Imbler, Powder Valley lead pack in all-league selections After dominating the Old Oregon League this season, the Imbler Panthers highlighted the all-OOL selections made available recently. Quarterback Kyle Johnson and running back Joe Griffin both made the first team, along with tight end Casey Robertson, center Rowdy Graves and offensive lineman Cole Campbell. Graves was also a first-team defensive lineman, while Campbell got the nod at defensive end and Robertson at linebacker. Powder Valley’s Colton Eubanks shared first-team running back honors with Griffin. Eubanks, a senior, was a force to be reckoned with this season with the ball in his hands. He regularly eclipsed 200 yards rushing and had 305 yards and nine touchdowns in a win over Pine Eagle. Eubanks backed that up with 324 yards and five scores against Wallowa. He also earned first-team honors as a return specialist and at linebacker with teammate Quin Stephens. Wallowa’s Pierce Millar edged out Imbler’s Garrett Bigej as a first-team wide receiver. Millar was one of the Cougars’ go-to guys this season. Teammate Wes Conrad was an honorable mention quarterback. See OOL / 11AContinued from 9A Conrad was also a first-team defensive back and punter. He was joined in the secondary by Powder Valley’s Shae Wendt and Pine Eagle’s Justin Seal as first-team selections. Cove’s Cameron McCowan earned first-team honors on the defensive line and offensive line, while Powder Valley’s Chace Dixon was a first-team selection at defensive end and a second team quarterback. Eddie Bedolla of Powder Valley was selected as the top kicker, edging out Sam Geckler Jr. of Cove. Imbler’s Lee Lowe earned coach of the year after leading the Panthers to a perfect season.
