Men second, women third
in last Region 18 action
By Doug Vaughan

It was the last Region 18
meet that the Clackamas Com
munity College track teams
will compete in, and to make
the setting perfect, the
Cougars hosted it.
For the men’s squad, it
was a chance to defend their
regional crown from last year.
After Friday’s competition,
though, it looked as if the
Cougars would be blown out
as they trailed Ricks College of
Rexburg, Idaho, by 32.
“After Friday, I never
thought that we would come
as close as we did,” Kelly
Sullivan, assistant coach, said.
On Saturday, the Cougars
fought back, but it wasn’t
enough as Ricks captured the
crown, scoring 99 points. The
Cougs were second with 88
followed by the College of
Southern Idaho with 24 and
Treasure Valley Community
College with 4.
Cougar sprinter Roy Ses
sion was named co
outstanding athlete of the
meet. Session had solo vic
tories in the 100 and 200 and
ran important legs in the
Coug’s first place 400 and
1600-meter relays. “The per
formance we got on Saturday
was tremendous. I couldn’t
have asked for anything more.
It was the most pleased I have
been since I started coaching
here,” Sullivan said.
A sad note for the
Cougars came with a lap left in
the 1500. Brian Abshire,
Clackamas’ distance ace,
broke his left fibula. Despite
the injury, Abshire finished
the race and was edged out at
the tape by teammate Matt
Parker, who captured the 1500
crown with a new Region 18
record of 3:48.1.
“It was really sad that
Brian’s career at Clackamas
had to end like that. He is the
top recruit in the nation and
had a lot' going for him
heading toward nationals,”
Sullivan said.
Parker, along with shat
tering the regional mark, also
ran a strong race in the 800,
Sullivan said, as he placed
third against tough competi
tion.
In the hurdles, the Cougs
dominated the regional field.
Randy Huserik topped the
110-meter hurdles with a
record time of 14.99. Jon
Elston captured the in
termediates with a 55.1 time.
The women’s team was

The College of Southern

women’s competition.
