Bradley, Irwin lead Cougars to sweep
By Tracy Sumner

Kyle Irwin, Rick Martin,
and Tony Mueller combined
for nine of 14 hitting and Kurt
Bradley came within a bat­
handie’s width of a no-hitter
last Saturday as the College
baseball team bombed
Chemeketa 10-1 in the first
game of a league double1
header in Salem.
Bradley stifled Chemeketa
hitters through the first six inn­
ings, but gave up a double, and
consequent RBI single to stop
his no-hitter bid.
In the second game, a 5-4
Cougar win, pitcher Clay Bag-
gerly scattered seven hits and
Irwin went three of four at the
plate to lead the sweep. Irwin
was six of eight from the plate
for the day.
Coach Gene Peterson was
pleased with the play of his
team, and in particular,
Bradley’s pitching in the first
game.
“He pitched really well,”
Peterson said. “We hit very
well and played very well in
both games. The guys are play­
ing like they should have all
year.”
In earlier games with Mt.
Hood Community College, the
men were beaten twice 17-9,
6-2, in Gresham.
In the first inning of the
first game, Mt. Hood all but
had the game won as they
scored nine runs on five hits
and three walks. Catcher Rod
Lane hit two home runs to lead
the Cougar offense.
The men gave up three
runs in a decisive third inning of
the second game to give
Chemeketa the win.
The men played Umpqua
CC here yesterday and were to
finish their season with Lane
CC this Saturday in Eugene.

Cross country team cited

The College Cross Coun­
try team received special
recognition from the National
Junior Athletic Association last
week for academic excellence
in athletics. The team had the
sixth best combined GPA
among the nation’s community
colleges.
Tony Macey’s 4.0 GPA
for last Fall term earned him
special individual attention
from the NJCAA governing
board. Mylo Nelson and Marco
Gutiemez also held 4.0 GPA’s
last fall, but were not in the
team’s top seven runners and
therefore weren’t recognized by
the NJCAA.
Lynn Purdue (3.75 GPA),
Steve GogI (3.18), Vance
Blow (3.11), and Kevin
MacDermott (3.0) also helped
the team to its combined 3.4
GPA.
“I’m really proud of the
guys,” cross country coach Kel­
ly Sullivan said. “I think it’s im­
portant for people to realize the
quality of the people we get in
the track program.”
