This game is a huge rivalry between two schools who share a long history with each other. The rivalry, however, is coming to a close and this game is being referred to as “The Last Round Up” and the teams will play in a rodeo arena. These two schools have played each other more than 90 times in the past, but this is the last time they will play each other, as Hermiston High School is switching to a more competitive level and with closer schools in the Washington League.
