The latest from the Malheur Enterprise

Good morning and I’m glad you’re here.

For many in Malheur County, eyes are on Bend on Saturday.

Three football teams are competing for state titles in separate divisions – Vale in 3A, Adrian in eight-man 1A and Harper in six-man 1A. We have full coverage of their semifinal games – and details on the championship games.The Enterprise has been publishing more stories and more photos than any other news organization as the playoffs unfold.

Our team will be posting updates Saturday to our Facebook page if you aren’t making the trip to Bend.

Meantime, we join the rest of you in cheering on the Vikings, the Antelopes and the Hornets!
