ROB McCALLUMThe News-Review

For 12 Dr. Stewart’s players, theAmerican Legion World Seriesmeant the end of their Legionbaseball careers, but baseball is

very much in their future.The Docs will be well represented on

college rosters next spring as 10 playersplan on playing at the next level.

If things go right, outfielders CameronNewell and Mitch Huff will be on theopposite sides of the Civil War. Shortstop

Johnny Farrington willbe reunited with hisbrother, former Docsshortstop Boone Far-rington, at Biola Univer-sity in California. DerekPriestley and DakotaCavens go off togetherto Linfield College inMcMinnville. Fourmore players plan onattending small collegesand junior colleges.

Dr. Stewart’s has rou-tinely sent players on tocollege. In coach ScottShaver’s era, outfielderA.J. Royal played atChemeketa College,pitchers Justin Countsand Chad Hanson bothplayed at Linn-BentonCollege. But 10 repre-sents the most indecades.

Newell is headed toOregon State, which hadeight players selected in

this year’s MLB draft. The Beavers wonCollege World Series titles in 2006 and ’07and have reached the postseason each ofthe past two years.

Huff plans on walking on at Oregon,which completed just its second year backas a program after a 24-year hiauts. For-mer Doc Caleb Tommasini was on UO’sroster in 2009 and recorded the new team’sfirst hit and scored the team’s first run.

Brandon Jackson is headed to WesternNevada College in Carson City after one

of the best seasons by a Dr. Stewart’spitcher ever. Jackson went 8-1 this season,with five of those wins coming in the post-season. WNC has seen numerous playerscome from southern Oregon, includingJordan Lewis, Cole Rohrbough and LoganOdom from Medford and Jake Waarden-burg from Klamath Falls.

Johnny Farrington started each of thepast two summers at shortstop for the Docsand was the starting second baseman in2008 beside Boone. They’ll both play atBiola, located in Los Angeles.

After starting his playing career atNorthwest Nazarene in Idaho, Boonetransfered and flourished at Biola. The2008 Roseburg grad hit .388, scored ateam-high 52 runs for the Eagles and wasnamed a Golden State Athletic Conferenceall-star.

Priestley heads to Linfield to play foot-ball and baseball. Priestley was a defensivestalwart for the Docs and Roseburg Highas a third baseman, but also pitched somebig games.

Cavens plans on walking on at Linfieldafter spending last spring at Oregon Tech.

Cavens got better as the season went on,pitching two of the biggest games of hiscareer in the Northwest Regional Tourna-ment and then at the ALWS.

Catcher Vince Ampi is headed to West-ern Oregon. There has been a pipelinefrom Roseburg to Monmouth recently asformer Dr. Stewart’s player and coachJeremiah Robbins, a Douglas High gradu-ate, has taken over WOU.

Roseburg graduate Blake Keitzmanearned Division II All-American honorsfor WOU and was drafted by the Rockieslast June. Former Docs Chad Lynch andEric Savage were on the Wolves’ rosterthis past season and Kellen Walker is onRobbins’ coaching staff.

Utility infielder and designated hitterJered Stoffal is going to play at Skagit Val-ley College in Mt. Vernon, Wash.

Pitcher Chris Case, who had his Legioncareer cut short by a shoulder injury butpitched big games for the Docs the pasttwo seasons, is going to play at College ofthe Siskiyous in Weed, Calif.

Although relief pitcher and utilityinfielder Jay Tovey is likely done withcompetitive baseball, the Roseburg gradu-ate hasn’t ruled out continuing hiswrestling career in college.

ROB McCALLUM/ The News-Review

Brandon Jackson, pitching at Newberg on July 23, is headed to Western Nevada.

More than a few times duringthe past six weeks, it occurredto me in various press boxes

around the Pacific Northwest that Dr.Stewart’s might be down to its finalfew outs.

That entails having to write a “bum-mer” article to go with “bummer” pho-tos, but you tell yourself ‘Oh well, atleast I’ll get a head starton my vacation.’

But time and again thissummer, the Docs foundways to pull victories fromthe jaws of defeat. Theydid it so frequently fromthe super regional round tostate, regionals and finallythe American LegionWorld Series, that havingto write the bummer article nevercame.

This reporter even got a vacation outof the deal (Spokane is an underratedcity).

By the time the Docs were eliminat-ed from the ALWS, 6-2 to eventualrunner-up Eden Prairie, Minn., therewas such a sense of accomplishmentfrom the Roseburg side, writing thestory didn’t even feel like that big abummer.

Players and coaches were sad tohave been a few timely hits away from

the final day of the ALWS, but I gotthe feeling they felt worse about play-ing their final games in Dr. Stewart’suniforms.

Thirteen Docs played their finalAmerican Legion games, which sayssomething in Douglas County.

■Where I grew up, players played for

the now-defunct EugeneAll Sports. But even in aplace where All-comertrack meets had largeraudiences than legionbaseball games, I knewabout the aura of legionbaseball in Southern Ore-gon.

I didn’t know what a“Doc Stewart” was, but I

knew it had a fan base.When college and my profession

brought me to the land of awesomeballparks like Legion Field and KigerStadium, I embraced the tradition fully.I even learned who Earl B. Stewartwas and was able to pass the knowl-edge onto about 50 Spokaneans.

In the past 18 months or so I’ve beencompiling records on Dr. Stewart’s andother Area 4 teams. It entails inky fin-gers from back issues of The News-Review and dizziness from spinningmicrofiche reels. It was also been a

blast for this history buff.The research drives the point home

just how good the Docs have beenover the decades, and just how badtheir luck had been at the state tourna-ment from 1985-2009.

This summer, however, witnessingDr. Stewart’s break that state jinx andtake all that momentum into the North-west Regional Tournament and ALWShas been surreal.

Finding scores from a state tourna-ment in the late 80s was easy enough;those appeared in many newspaperseven if the local team had been elimi-nated.

Getting regional scores was harder.Sometimes it meant reading micro-fiche from a newspaper in towns likeLewiston, Idaho or Billings, Mont.

In the past month, however, gettingthose scores was easy as watchingscoreboard in the bottom of the ninth.It was Dr. Stewart’s history in the mak-ing. For a baseball fan and a historybuff, it was about a fun a vacation asyou can have.

Case struck out seven andwalked four but didn’t get to go all seveninnings because Priestley’s two-run triplein the fifth put the 10-run mercy rule intoeffect.

Eugene 7-9, Docs 6-6EUGENE — Dr. Stewart’s experienced

familiar conference road woes, losingleads in both games of what turned intoone of its most frustrating doubleheadersof the summer at Swede Johnson Stadium.

The Docs, entering the games at 3-1 inArea 4 action, came out crisp after a week-long break, taking a 6-0 lead off the batbefore blowing it. They went up 3-1 inGame 2, but still lost despite Vince Ampi’stwo home runs.

Docs 25, Three Rivers 0FLORENCE — Eleven first-inning runs

were plenty for starter Jared Priestley, whomade his first start of the year to the tuneof a complete-game shutout. While Priest-ley faced only two batters over the mini-mum in the seven-inning game, his broth-er, Derek, helped him out with a home runwhile Johnny Farrington and Mitch Huffhad four hits each. Everyone in the lineuphad at least two hits to their credit.

Docs 5-3, Klamath Falls 4-6Returning to conference play, the Docs

won in thrilling fashion in the opener asBrandon Jackson scored the winning runin the eleventh inning on a wild pitch afterleading off the frame with a double. JayTovey got the win in relief and, after 10

1/3 innings of work,Klamath’s Doug Northwas tagged with theloss.

The nightcap sawthe Docs unable to

capitalize on Game 1’s momentum, losingtheir third Area 4 contest in four outings.

Docs 12-10, Grants Pass 2-0Desperate for a sweep, Dr. Stewart’s

crept back over the .500 mark and intothird place in Area 4 with its third andfourth easy wins of the season against theNuggets. Dakota Cavens and Austin Marsheached tossed complete games and JeredStoffal provided the offensive spark withfour hits and three runs at the bottom ofthe order, including a pair of triples.

Richey’s Market 9, Docs 8CORVALLIS — Dr. Stewart’s couldn’t

make a five-run first-inning lead stand in anon-league game at Hansen Stadium, asRichey’s Market taxed three Docs pitchersfor 14 hits. Representing the tying run inthe ninth, Josh Graham was picked off offirst base, spoiling a three-hit day byAustin Stone.

Docs 16, Salem Withnell 10SALEM — Continuing their non-league

road tour, the Docs came from behindtwice to win a slugfest against SalemWithnell. After scoring five runs in thefifth inning, Mitch Huff’s three-run homer

highlighted a six-run sixth that put Dr.Stewart’s in the driver’s seat. Four consec-utive doubles were hit in the big fifthinning by Vince Ampi, Josh Graham, KyleJaukkuri and Derek Priestley. AustinMarsh came on to get the win in 3 2/3solid innings of relief work.

Medford 10-8, Docs 0-5MEDFORD —The Mustangs clinched

their third consecutive Area 4 title with ahome sweep of Dr. Stewart’s, riding fifth-round Major League-pick Ian Kendall’sarm and Cody James’ bat to a pair of con-vincing victories.

DerekPriestley was a bright spot, recording theonly hit off Kendall in Game 1 and goingdeep off of Matt Maurer in Game 2.

Docs 4-4, Eugene 0-2With a trip to the postseason clinched

but seeding still in question, Dr. Stewart’scame away with two big wins against theChallengers to dart into second place in thestandings. Brandon Jackson pitched acomplete-game shutout in the opener andstruck out eight without walking a batter,and got some help in the form of a two-runsingle from Johnny Farrington.

Josh Graham went the distance in Game2 while limiting Eugene to five hits andblasted a two-run homer to help his owncause. Cameron Newell and Farringtonalso chipped in two hits apiece as the Docs

took a half-game lead over Eugene in thestandings.

Mitch Huff hit three homers for Dr.Stewart’s in the two games, but the pitch-ing was out of sync all night.

KLAMATH FALLS — Dr. Stewart’spicked the perfect time to put an end to athree-game losing streak against Klamath,winning the state-tourney opener thanks to agutsy performance on the mound by Bran-don Jackson — who pitched into the ninth— and a seventh-inning outburst.

Docs 25, Salem Post Nine 11KLAMATH FALLS — Any thoughts of

the state tournament being a little more nor-mal than the Docs’ run at the Super Region-als were quickly erased after this game.
