Men ’s basketball Crew impresses Kiser By Doug Vaughan Of The Print Playing their best basket ball of the season, the Clackamas Community Col lege men’s team made easy pickings of Lewis and Clark, swallowing the Pioneers’ junior varsity, 89-50, last Saturday. The blowout improved the Cougars’ season mark to 19-10, as they approach post season action. Coach Royce Kiser was pleased with their outstanding performance. .“Everybody got to play. We could have scored 130 points if we really tried,” Kiser said. “It was a fun game for everyone to play.” Defense is what made the Cougars unbeatable. Lewis and Clark converted on only 24 of 72 shots, while commit ting 21 turnovers. “Our defense was the best we have played all year. We have worked hard on it and it is starting to really pay off,” Kiser said. BOMBS AWAY—Mike Imper uncorks howitzer in action with The Cougars, who have Vancouver College. Kiser’s crew has now won eight of their last won 8 of their last 10 games, ten games. The crew hosts Western Oregon tonight at 8 p.m. also controlled the boards, Photos by Joel Miller which with their defense pro vided them with several fast break opportunities. Bob Nippert and Roger Edwards led the Cougs as they pulled down 16 and 12 re bounds, respectively. Clacka mas out-rebounded the Pioneers, 63-44. Nippert also led the Cougs in scoring as he hit 10 of 16 shots from the floor, leading all scorers with 25 points. Mike Peregrin, who has come into his own, added 16 points, while Edwards tal lied 14. Earlier in the week, Kiser’s crew hosted Yakima College, a team that previous ly defeated Clackamas by four in Yakima. The Washington based team wasn’t as for tunate the second time around as the Cougars trounced them, 99-81. “We played a good first half of basketball,” Kiser said. “Actually, we had them beat at the half.” After building up a 47-17 lead in the first half, the Cougars settled for a 50-25 halftime advantage. Never once did the visitors threaten. “We showed how good we are playing. We shipped a team that had beaten us earlier this season,” Kiser said. “Our first half offense was super and our defense was very good.” The second half only left time for the Cougars to sweep up the remains of Yakima. Yakima tried to play catch-up basketball but found it im possible. Leading the way for Clackamas was guard Doug Coffman, who fired in a game high of 19 points, while backcourt companion Tim Gardner hit 16. The frontcourt trio of Nippert, Edwards and Peregrin chipped in 16, 14 and 12 respectively. Mike Imper, whose earlier season perfor mance was spectacular, scored 15. Kiser’s crew finishes out the regular season with three home games. The first being tonight against Western Oregon, before a two-game weekend with Capilano Col lege of British Columbia, Saturday and Sunday. From there the Cougars will vie with Treasure Valley Community College in a playoff for a Regional tourna ment berth the following week.
