Monroe’s hopefuls this year
include Jim Colgan, Tony

ners have but a little time to
“get their act together” as the

with Reynold’s training even
though she is only a freshman.

The Cougar’s men’s soccer
team opened their 1979 league
season in a rather impressive
fashion when they gained a
pair of lopsided victories over
OISA opponents in games over
the weekend.
On Saturday, it was the
Oregon Institute of Technology
who fell to the Cougs by a
score of 6-1. Coach Rich
Taylor praised his defense in
the contest noting, “our defen­
se played especially well. We
allowed only four shots on goal
all day.” Taylor credited his
fullbacks Mark Losson, Ken
Froescher, Andy Didzen and
Steve Davy, for their work as
they allowed only minimal
threats by the OIT front line.
Supplying the Coug’s offen­
sive punch in Saturday’s win
over OIT were center mid­
fielder, Cleve Nyberg, and cen­
ter forward Ron Thomas.
Nyberg was able to score three
goals on the afternoon, giving
CCC midfielder a hat-trick for
his day’s work. Not to be out­
done by Nyberg’s performan­
ce, Thomas also scored a hat-
trick with two goals of his own
and an assist on another.
Sunday, the Cougar booters
played host to Southern
Oregon State College and the
results were basically the same,
with CCC gaining a 4-1 vic­
tory.
Coach Rich Taylor called
Southern Oregon “a very
physical team who were
especially good with their
heads.” Taylor awarded his
team’s success to the fact that,
“We were able to beat them to
the ball and take advantage of
some defensive mistakes which
gave us the victory.”
Taylor again praised his
defense for their work as they
denied SOSC the opportunity
to score, continually turning
them away without a goal.
Charlie Park provided a
good part of the offense as the
CCC left-winger scored a hat-
trick with three goals of the
day. Cleve Nyberg also added
a goal for the Cougs while
Ron Thomas assisted on two of
the Cougar scores.
Coach Taylor has a very op­
timistic outlook on the season
and tags Portland Community
as the team to beat. “In the first
two games, we have already
scored more than in all league
games last year,” Taylor said.
“We have all ready doubled
our number of wins from a year
ago.”
The Cougars will be put to
the test this week with two
tough matches scheduled. On
Thursday, the Cougs will host
last year’s OISA champs,
Portland Community College,
in a non-league contest at 4
p.m. and will then come back
on Saturday for a league game
against Oregon State, also on
the Cougar field. Game time is
2p.m.
V-ballers win
The women’s volleyball team
opened their 1979 campaign in
impressive fashion Monday,
blanking Warner Pacific 15-5,
15-8, 15-11, at Randall Gym.
The win marks the coaching
debut of first-year Coach Loren
Swivel who moved to Oregon
during the summer from
Maryland. “We played pretty
good defense in places and
showed signs of being a good
defensive team,” said Swivel.
“But we did not get into as
powerful an offense as I would
have liked.”
Swivel is optimistic in
viewing her 1979 squad, but
still demands that this is a
“building year.” Swivel ex­
pressed some concern over the
physical size of her squad, but
noted, “They are very en­
thusiastic and possess a good
deal of individual talent.”
The women will be back in
action on Wednesday when
they travel to Mt. Hood Com­
munity College for 3:30 p.m.
