Sports: Postseason awaits Eddyville, Waldport, and Toledo

It's win-or-go-home time for high school football teams across Oregon, and in Lincoln County, the Toledo Boomers, Eddyville Eagles, and Waldport Irish are about to embark on playoff journeys. Each program boasts a winning league record this season, but the playoffs will turn the intensity up a notch. Let's take a look at how these teams got here and what the first round will bring. Eddyville The Eagles are no strangers to the postseason, having qualified in each of the past four years, and 2026 is their fifth straight trip to the bracket. Their lone Special District 2 loss came against Triangle Lake on Oct. 9, and Eddyville finished second in the league behind the Lakers for the second straight year. Eddyville earned three league wins against Country Christian, Falls City, and Siltez Valley to help secure their spot, none more important than their Oct. 2 win over Falls City. The Eagles clawed to a 43-42 win, a victory that proved decisive in the final standings, as Falls City ended the season at 2-2 in third place in Special District 2. To prepare for the postseason, the Eagles played a non-league game against Jordan Valley on a neutral field Oct.

Despite its name, Higher Education and Career Path Skills, commonly referred to as HECPS, is not limited to preparing students for college.
