She was the first woman on the community college level to cross the finish line. First-year Coach Marilyn Lensenmeyer said, “We’re pretty proud of Nancy. I felt Nancy ran very comfortably.” The rookie coach is pleased 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. match BILL KUNZ HAL REYNOLDS Kunz-Reynolds, Inc.
