Roundbailers miss chance for second By Julie Miller Of The Print The Cougar baseball team lost a double-header 10-9 and 6-4 to Linn Benton Communi ty College May 14. In the first game there were home runs by Dan Eberhardt, Darrell Pizer and Joe Johnson. “We were hitting well and everyone was playing good defense,” Coach Paul Roeder said. “We were just beat in the pitching depart ment.” Four pitchers were us ed in the game including Brock Birch, Rod Jackson, Dan Eberhardt and Rich Evans. The team played and split a double-header with Lane Community College May 17 in Eugene. The Cougars lost the first game 6-7 after a lead of 5-0 up to the fourth inning. But, Coach Roeder, reported “the pitching didn’t hold up and we ended losing the game.” In the second game, however, Clackamas came back to take control of the field, winning 4-3. They led in scoring throughout the game. Five Clackamas team members were nominated to the League’s all-star team in cluding Brock Birch at pitcher, Darrel Pizer at outfield, Dan Eberhardt at first base, Mickey Eberhardt at outfield and Craid Norris at third base. The all-star team final selec tions have yet to be made. Coach Roeder said he will concentrate on recruiting for the summer team and next year’s team.The summer team will consist of players from this team, recruits for next year and some ex-Clackamas players. The games will be played in the evenings and on weekends at the Scavone/Walker field in Portland. The team will be part of the Portland City League and will play its first game in June. Coach Roeder said of the season, “This is a well- balanced, tough league with the difference between first and second place a break or two.” Roeder described his team as a real “diversification of personalities.” He said, “I guess you’d say it made for an interesting coaching ex perience. The team was loaded with talent, but did not have the right personality mixture to form a really good team.” He added that in some areas the team “lacked dedication. It was a learning situation for all involved. I’m sure it will make us all better individuals in the long run. The team was made up of “personalities that were likeable, the kind of people you like to associate with each day. In short, this season will help develop character for future participation in baseball,” he said. Roeder said the weather was favorable for them since none of the home games were cancelled. The team played a total of 37 games. “We didn’t end up too bad,” Roeder said. “We were just two games out of second place. If we had won both games against Lane CC, there would have been a four-way tie for second.” Overall, Mount Hood Com munity College placed first in the league with Lane in second place. These two teams now go to Yakima Valley to compete. DAN EBERHARDT CATCHES a pop-up fly while Rich Evans and the Cougars catcher prepare to assist.'. Photo by Joel Miler Tracksters...

In the triple jump, Orblum grabbed third place with a jump of 47’2”.
