Volleyballers 26-13 record not good enough By Tracy M. Sumner Of The Print The College volleybailers finished their 1982 season on a winning note last Tuesday, Nov. 10, taking a 15-4, 9-15, 15-12, 15-12 decision over Concordia College in Salem. The season-ending victory gave the women a very respec table 26-13 won-lost record, but because of a complicated system used to decide the team’s play-off fate, the Cougars were snubbed from Region 18 competition. “It (leaving Clackamas out of the Regionals) was a poor decision I think,” College volleyball Coach Loren Swivel said. “It wasn’t a very fair decision.” In order to earn a place in the Regional tournament, Clackamas was required to take first place at the North Idaho Tournament held in Couer d’Alene. The women failed to take first, leaving them out of the play-offs. Because the College drop ped out of the Oregon Com munity College Athletic Association and the OCCAA decided not to play Cougar teams, the volleyballers were forced to play much more ex perienced four-year schools this season. “The teams that beat us were older, more established four-year schools. When JC’s play the four-year schools (the Junior Colleges) are going to lose some,” Swivel said. “1 didn’t mind the losses as long as we played up to our potential,” she said. “I was displeased only when we didn’t play up to our potential and ability.” Despite her team’s inability to earn a Regionals berth, Swivel was pleased with the progress and play of the team despite the youth and inex perience of the women. “This year’s team developed a strong team con cept. For the most part, the girls learned a lot and grew up as volleyball players,” Swivel stated. “In particular situations, we had problems with our youth,” she said. “We’d have problems in different areas and we’d work on that area to where it "would become more consistent. The players developed, which obviously you want a team to do. In try ing to learn the different techni ques and adjust to college play, they did very well,” Swivel said. “I was pleased with the season,” she said. “I was disap pointed we didn’t make it to the Regionals, but we were in very difficult situations to do it.” Leading the young team were co-captains Terri Kelly and Mary Imper. Kelly, whom Swivel referred to as the team’s Most Valuable Player, has at tracted the attention of several four-year programs. “Everybody’s looking at her,” Swivel said. “OSU, PSU; everyone wants her.” Also playing important roles on the team was a trio of Colton High School grads. Teri Larsen, Sue Smith, and Kelly Ingle joined the Cougars after careers with the powerful Vik ings and contributed greatly to the team. Swivel gave an over-all break-down of the rest of her » players contributions to the team as follows: Lori Chisolm-“A strong server.” Sheryl Dischinger-“Sheryl is a very intelligent volleyball player. Also her 86 percent at tack rate was very good for a freshman.” Sue Frank-“Sue is a strong server and had some very good defensive games.” Shari Kamrath-“Shari is a strong front-row hitter.” Leah Ruchonich-“Leah was a good substitute. She did a good job coming off the bench.” Carla Ziegenbein-“Carla developed good over-all talent. She had a fine service rate of 81 percent and an attack rate of 80 percent.” Terri Jo Kelly (center) Men eagers batter alumni The Clackamas Com munity College men’s basket ball team opened its ‘82-‘83 season with an easy 105-72 romp over a team composed of College alumni.
