THE DALLES, Ore. (KATU) — Two Oregon State Police troopers were hurt Monday morning in a crash involving two commercial trucks on an Interstate 84 off-ramp, The Dalles Police officials said.

The crash was reported about 7:30 a.m. at the top of I-84 on-ramp at exit 87, along Highway 197 just north of the interstate.

Initial reports state an Oregon State Police Fish & Wildlife K-9 vehicle was involved in a crash with two commercial vehicles – an unloaded log truck and a semi-truck & trailer.

Two OSP troopers and one of the commercial truck drivers were all taken to medical facilities for treatment.

The K-9 and the other truck driver were not hurt in the crash.

“The investigation is ongoing and we are asking for anybody who has information regarding this crash to call us at 541-296-2613 and reference case number D26-0261,” City of The Dalles Police Department said.

Tillamook earns eighth consecutive district title

The Cheesemakers romped to another championship, putting six wrestlers in the finals and advancing 15 to state to outscore runner-up Estacada by 105 points and set themselves up for a run at improving upon back-to-back sixth-place finishes at state. Pyle repeated as 106-pound champion, pinning teammate Javier Vazquez in 74 seconds in the final.

Three-time champions hope to make mark in two weeks

Two wrestlers won their third consecutive district titles, with Sandberg pinning Scappoose’s Lawson Komp 41 seconds into the second round and Cooley earning a 4-0 decision over Tillamook’s Dillon Bennet. Now, each looks to improve upon his 2025 state finish — Sandberg placed fifth at 132 and Cooley sixth at 150.

Estacada’s Grochowsky avenges loss in district final

Grochowsky won a district title as a freshman but lost 12-11 to Seaside’s Henry Rollins in the 113 final last year. This weekend, he got the better of Rollins when the Seagulls junior had to retire because of injury after the second round. Grochowsky’s teammate, Mixon, also won a second title, as did Astoria’s Balli.

Sweet Home poised to reclaim state championship

A 12th consecutive district championship trophy is nice, but with 2025 champion Crook County now in 5A, the Huskies put themselves in fine position to reclaim the state title in two weeks — they won in 2017 and 2024 and have five runner-up finishes in the past decade. They owned the lower weights, winning every title from 106 to 126 pounds, and Jefferson, Vaughan, Landtroop and Rosa repeated as district champions.

Conklin ends six-year title drought for Cottage Grove

Conklin improved to 46-0 (improving his win streak to 48 after placing third at state as a sophomore) when two-time district champion Tytus Hardee of Sweet Home sustained an injury in the final. Cottage Grove had not had a district finalist since 2023, and Conklin became the program’s first champion since 2020, when Jacob Dunn, Drew Swenson and Cobie Simpson took home titles.

Philomath state champion shrugging off early-season injury

Barrett suffered an ankle injury at Philomath’s season-opening tournament and has been brought back gradually to prevent a recurrence as he tries to become the program’s first three-time state champion. He improved to 18-0 with a 14-0 major decision over Sweet Home’s James Hearick in the district final.

Depth key to Marshfield’s second consecutive district title

A year ago, Marshfield won eight individual championships en route to its first team title since 2018. This year, the Pirates won only one weight class when Castro took home his third district crown with a third-period technical fall, but their depth (state qualifiers at 12 of 14 weight classes) was enough to stave off Hidden Valley (and the Mustangs’ four district titlists) by 39 points.

Returning champions square off in 285 final

The 285 final featured returning district champions Quist moving up from 215 to challenge Marshfield’s Skyler Folau. Quist, whose only loss this season came in the High Desert Classic final to Burns’ Joe Weil, defeated Folau for the second time this season with a 4-1 decision. It was a closer match than in mid-December, when Quist (third at state a year ago) won an 11-3 major decision in the North Bend Coast Classic quarterfinals.

North Bend’s Swanson, Henley’s Collier also repeat

Two other wrestlers repeated as district champions, with Swanson moving down from 150 (where a possible final against two-time state titlist Riley Barrett awaited) to beat Phoenix’s Caden Cunningham by second-period fall, and Collier moved up from 157 to 165 and earned a second-round pin over Mazama’s Isaac Stacey.

Special District 4 (at Madras)

Team champion: La Grande (396 points)

Most qualifiers: Pendleton (18), La Grande (16), Madras (9)

Individual champions

106 Darren Gulzow, jr., La Grande

113 Hank Roy, soph., Pendleton

120 Aiden Cox, fr., Pendleton

126 Deegan Nelson, soph., La Grande

132 Bragen Anderson, sr., La Grande

138 Colton Livingston, sr., La Grande

144 Bryler Anderson, soph., La Grande

150 Cole Roy, sr., Pendleton

157 Tommy Belding, sr., La Grande

165 Kainen Zimmerman, sr., Pendleton

175 Vance Nelson, sr., Pendleton

190 Aidan Perkins, sr., Pendleton

215 Dex Dunlap, jr., La Grande

285 Gage Valencia, sr., Ontario

La Grande edges Pendleton for first district title since 2022

The departure of three-time reigning champion Crook County to 5A created a wide-open district tournament, where Pendleton enjoyed a 3-2 edge over La Grande in district finals matching the schools’ wrestlers and an 18-16 edge in state qualifiers but still saw the Tigers eke out a 1.5-point victory for their first title since 2022 — the year before the Cowboys dropped to 4A. Belding and Bragen Anderson each won a third district title to lead the charge, and Dunlap repeated as 215 champion.

Two No. 2 seeds help Buckaroos push for team title

The Buckaroos had six district champions, one fewer than La Grande, with Nelson needing just 31 seconds to pin Madras’ Colton Gillespie to earn his third individual crown. They also got wins at 120, where Cox earned a 5-3 decision over La Grande’s top seed Kallen Blakely, and 165, where Zimmerman posted a 14-5 major decision over top seed Noah Collins of La Grande.

Ontario heavyweight denies La Grande-Pendleton title sweep

Ontario will have only four wrestlers make the 375-mile trip from the eastern tip of the state to Memorial Coliseum, but one of them is Valencia, who was the only wrestler not from La Grande or Pendleton to win a title — he earned a second-period technical fall over La Grande’s Darryn Richardson to improve to 31-4.

Tyler (Texas) High Rivals300 running back Cadarius McMiller committed to Oregon over the weekend, choosing to play for the Big Ten powerhouse over the likes of Arizona State, Baylor, Texas Tech, SMU, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Tennessee, Washington and Ole Miss.

“I really like the school,” McMiller said. “Nobody else showing me love like Oregon.”

That love begins with future position coach Ra’Shaad Samples.

“Coach Samp it’s a good relationship,” McMiller said. “It felt right.

“He’s a good dude. I feel like to be a good recruiter you have to have good communication and relationship skills and he has both of them.”

Rivals ranks McMiller as the nation’s No. 15 running back and No. 173 prospect overall. He visited Eugene a few weeks ago.

“The coaching staff of course,” he said of what stood out. “Everybody is cool. They got a good facility.”

McMiller also highlight the “winning” program.

“The head coach he’s a good leader. He knows how to run a program.”

The 6-foot-1, 185-pound McMiller has 10.2 speed in the 100m dash and as a junior he used his speed to rush for 943 yards and 17 touchdowns with 186 more yards receiving and three scores.

“I’m a run hard running back,” McMiller said. He can also play in the slot. “I’m not doing all that dancing. I’m straight downhill into somebody’s face.”

Oregon signed Rivals No. 4 ranked class in the 2026 cycle and with recruiting wins like McMiller they’ll compete for another top five haul in 2027.
