CONCENTRATION—Even with all the concentration the Cougar baseball team had,
they ended up with two more losses than wins at 11-13.
Peterson pleased with season
10-0 and 6-3, and placing
fourth overall, trailing Umpqua
at first, Linn-Benton Com

Mt. Hood Community College
at third place.
Head Coach Gene Peterson
commented
on
the
youthfulness of his team and
said he thought they played
well throughout the season.
“We were kind of young this
year,” -said Peterson, “but
seasonwise, we weren’t bad at
all. We did quite well.” Cougar

teams that defeated Umpqua

Golf championship hopes look dismal
With the College golf season
about over, and the conference
tournament beginning today,
the hope of a Cougar cham
pionship has all but faded.
In regular season action, the
College golfers were only able
to come out of two meets on

which took first place.
Peterson said, “If they all
come back, we’ll be pretty
strong next season.”
“Three sophomore players
should go on to play at four-
year schools and do quite
well,” Peterson said. “Jamie
Johnly, Steve Mills and Larry
Jones could do well playing at
the four-year school level.”
Peterson attended a meeting
at 7 p.m. Tuesday night to
learn of any possible Cougar
All-Star players, but the All-
Star selections had not been
released by presstime.
One, a lonely number if
there ever was one. Men’s ten
nis coach David Buckley took
four of the College’s raquet-
teers to the courts of Lane
Community College last Friday
and Saturday, to grapple with
other Oregon colleges in the
Oregon Community College
Athletic Association tennis
championship.
Three of the four died quick
deaths by losing in the first
round, to opponents from
Chemeketa, Blue Mountain,
and Umpqua Community Col
leges. One of the four, Mark
Sanford, played well enough to
make it to the regionals at
Treasure Valley Community
College this Friday and Satur
day.
Sanford succeeded by whip
ping a man from Southwestern
Oregon Community College,
6-2 and 6-3. Although he lost
in the second round to a Mt.
Hood man by a score of 4-6,
2-6, Sanford played well
enough to make the regionals,
and will travel with Buckley to
Treasure Valley to play op
ponents from all around the
Northwest.

One thing Coach Jim Hud
son pointed out as a weakness
for this year’s team was incon
sistency. They wouldn’t
necessarily win, but they’d play
well in one meet, then would
have a bad day the next.
Another problem has been
getting practice time. “Ar
rowhead Golf Club, (where the
team practices) charges us to
use their practice balls and
won’t let us use our own, so it
costs too much to go out there
very often,” stated Hudson.
The only person on the
Cougar squad who is expected
to do very well in the cham
pionship tournaments is Dai
Hixson, who is defending
Region 18 champion.
Other schools in the con
ference with the College iri
elude the following community
colleges: Mt. Hood, Linn-
Benton and Chemeketa. 01

ly one on the same level as the
Cougars is Chemeketa; thus a
third or fourth place finish for
the College is expected.
“The only chance we have of
winning is if the other teams
have a bad day, and we have a
good day,” Hudson stated.
As far as the College team
making improvements this
season, Hudson said, “Im
provement has been like a
pogo stick, up and down.”
