By Rob Conner
and 6-4. “We had so many
close matches,” Buckley said.
Tom Hercamp, playing at
the number three position, lost
to Cowley City, Kansas’ Mike
MacDonald 6-2, 6-0. “I’ve
been out (in practice) with Tom
and he’s played six sets, after
one (in Florida) he was done,”
Buckley stated.
Bob Martin, who figured
to be in the money at the
number four position, was
dealt a handy defeat by
number six seeded Thorp of
Paris, Texas, by a count of 6-1,
6-1.

Sophomore Byron Sul­
livan single handedly carried
the Clackamas tennis team to
twentieth place at the National
tennis tournament in Ocala,
Florida. 36 teams competed.
Sullivan, out of Grants
Pass, Oregon, has been the
backbone of the scrappy
Cougar club all season long.
The Oregon native was the on­
ly Clackamas netter to even
make it past the first round.
“So many teams don’t
score any points,” Coach Dave
Buckley said in praise of
Sullivan’s standout perfor­
mance.
Sullivan
was
eliminated in the quarter finals
by Strozier from Anderson
Community College in South
Carolina. Strozier, the number
four seed, handed Sullivan a
6-2, 6-1 loss.

The Cougar soph, playing
number two man for Clack­
amas, was awarded a bye in
the first round. Sullivan then
whipped German of Mitchell
C.C. in Conneticutt, 6-0 and
6-2.
“We lost four matches in
the third set. We’d win the first
set then drop the next two
because of the heat. Actually
we should have scored more
Coach Dave Buckley
points than we did. Most of
they guys we lost to were from
the South. I’m not saying we
would have won more matches
if the tournament was held up
here, but the weather was a
factor,” Buckley commented.
Top Cougar John Storm
lost a close decision to Mike
Reid of Wilmar, Michigan 6-3
John Gorman was one of
the few to even take a set in the
tournament as he won the first
set against Paul Clark of Paris,
6-3. The heat then took its toll,
as Gorman dropped the next
two sets 3-6, 3-6.
Sixth man Ben Campbell
dropped straight sets to Jeffer­
son’s Leibracht 6-0 and 6-0.
Seminole Community
College of Orlando, Fla. won
the team title. They were 40-0
and beat the top ranked NAIA
school. Tyler, Texas was se­
cond and Central Florida was
third.
“I played out there one
day. You can’t even describe
it,” Buckley said of the
weather.

The 1983 Cougar golf
team putted to their last hole in
Tokatee, Oregon as they end­
ed their season with a second
place finish in the Tokatee In­
vitational and took third in the
Region 18 Tournament.
The Cougars had a hard
time getting their game “up to
par” as they shot a 320, which
was good enough for a second
place finish in the Tokatee In­
vitational. Mt. Hood Com­
munity College won the invita­
tional with a 315. Treasure
Valley Community College
shot a 322 for third place,
Linn-Benton Community Col­
lege nabbed fourth with a 334,
and Central Oregon Com­
munity College took fifth place
with a 345. Mike Wilkerson
from Linn-Benton took
medalist honors.

scores for the Cougars included
Tom Thompson’s 41 and 35
for a total score of 76, Dave
Stephens 42 and 37 got him a
79, Dave Reichert’s 37 and 43
for an 80, Steve Miles had a 43
and 42 for a 85, Andy
Goodard swung in a 45 ahd a
43 for an 88, and Todd
Frederichs finished with a 44
and a 46 to give him a 90.
Coach Jim Hudson com­
mented on the team’s play say­
Wednesday June 1, 1983
ing, “We didn’t play that well in
the Tokatee Invitational. The
team needed to work more on
the shots they were having pro­
blems with. However, they
didn’t put in the necessary time
and it shows in their scores.”
The Cougars returned to
Tokatee on Sunday, May 22
for a practice round against all
the teams competing in the
Region 18 Tournament. The
following two days, Monday
and Tuesday, the Region 18
Tournament took place.
Although the Cougars
were blessed with beautiful
weather, they were consistantly
plagued with high scores.
The first day of the tourna­
ment the Cougars shot a 323
which was enough for a first
round, third place standing
below Treasure Valley’s 305
and Mt. Hood’s 320. Linn-
Benton ended the first round
with a score of 335. Individual
first round Cougar scores were
as follows: Dave Reichert-77,
Torn Thompson-80, Dave
Stephens-80, Andy Good-
ard-86, and Todd Fred-
erichs-88.
The second day of play in
the Region 18 Tournament
didn’t prove to be too much
more successful for the
Cougars as they stroked a 325
which placed them third in the
tourney with a final score of
and Linn-Benton brought up
Treasure Valley won the the rear with a 321 second
tournament with a second round and a final score of 656
round of 306 bringing their for fourth place. The medalist
total score of 611. Mt. Hood was Roger Wilkerson, who
shot a second round of 316 to shot a 145 which tied the
take second place with a 636 Regional record set by Cougar
Dan Hickson two years ago.
Individually the Cougars,
scores are as follows: Tom
Thompson led the pack with a
79, Dave Stephens shot an 80,
Andy Goodard brought in a
648.
81, Dave Reichert shot an 85.
and Todd Frederichs scored a
91.
Hudson reflected on the
season saying, “We started off
real well. Then we went
downhill and never could pull
out of it.” Hudson looks for­
ward to a more successful
season next year with the retur­
ning experience from this year
and the new recruits transferr­
ing in.
