Pioneers Snaq Third Cinderella Team is the term that applies to Sandy's tournament showing, which topped off a memorable year of basketball for team and fans alike. The Pioneers, gaining a third place, was the first Wilco League school to place in a State Tournament. Sandy drew one of the weaker teams for the opening-round action and surprised few onlookers as they overpowered the Hermiston Bulldogs 72-56. Dale Carpenter and Dan Nichols led the Pioneers with 18 points each. The Sandy crew pulled one of the tourney’s biggest upsets the next day as they toppled the Grants Pass Cavemen, defending state champs, by a 56-46 verdict. Nichols headed game scoring with another 18 point show. Hearts were broken the next night when the Tigard Tigers stunned the Sandy sympathizers by manhandling the Pio- neers 86-65. After the game, Coach Jerry Ross told the sea of reporters, Well, when I played (with Cleveland of Port- land in 1952,) we dropped the third game and came back to take the fourth. I believe that Sandy will do the same thing tomorrow. The coach’s hopes were justified on the tournament's final evening as the Pioneers deliberately slowed down the game to a painstaking rate and controlled the play to record Astoria’s second tournament upset by a 43-35 score. Car- penter, Sandy’s high scorer for the tour, was good for 13 to head the jubilant Pioneers who shouldered their mentor after the buzzer and carried him off in triumph.
