J Sports Three lead Lady Cougars in batting by Sherri Michaels Staff Writer Often softball players have been playing since about sixth grade, as in the case of Sue Richardson, though some like Angie Downey start as young as eight or as late as a freshman in high school, which is what Kim Stewart did. All three of these players have the top three batting averages for the women’s softball team here at Clackamas Community College. Richardson has a batting average of .462. “I don’t think strikes,” said Richardson in reference to the top average. Though Downey claims that “natural talent” is her reason for the second best batting average of .444. In comparison with Richardson and Downey, Stewart said, “I work really hard at hitting and I take extra time on my own to work on it.” It has paid off for Stewart with an average of .375. They all faced the challege of changing from fast pitch to modified (fast pitch). “It (modified) is all right but it’s different from fast pitch,” said Downey. But, according to many players fast pitch seems “more competitive” and that it by Steven Ziolkowski Staff Writer SUE RICHARDSON - Leading an^ batters at .462 presents “more of a challenge.” ‘‘Paul (Fiskum) is very dedicated,” said Richardson in relation to last week’s (The Print, April 8, 1987) article about the softball team. Fiskum like Richardson, Downey, and Stewart is new to the team. Therefore “his coaching and learning will get better along with the team” according to Downey. Though Stewart believes that “we (softball team) have basic work to do and need to improve on our com munication.” When there are a few minutes extra outside of softball, Richardson works at Washington Square in Leed’s shoe store but prefers to party as do Downey and Stewart. But Stewart also likes going to the movies to view her current favorite, “Outrageous Fortune,” Both Richardson and Downey live at home, whereas, Stewart lives with her grand parents in Boring. All of them agree that the team could be number one, but Stewart says it best. “We have the potential to be the best team KIM STEWART - Holding steady in the league if we believe in at .375. ourselves.” UHF TV ANTENNA: $10; 12’ Philco B & W T.V., $50; 20 Gal. plastic garbage can, $5.00; 2 -8’ traverse rods & curtain rods, $5.00.

Clackamas Community Col lege Coach Norm Bemey and his championship wrestlers brought home two awards this year. The team pinned down the 1987 se cond place trophy at the national finals in Chicago and Bemey came away with NJCCAA Coach of the Year. This has been the team’s best finish at the finals since ’71. Now teammates are training for the Oregon College Exchange tryouts in Corvallis, April 25. Wrestlers who make the team will spend two to three weeks in Hungary and neighboring countries. “Wrestling is not the most im portant part of the College Ex change,” Bemey says. “The ex perience gives motivation to open horizons, get out of an isolated environment, and understand we’re not the center of life.” Berney says that three wrestlers have a good chance of making 'the exchange team - Jr. Taylor (150), Juan Ybarra (177) and Doug Harper (118). Three talented and tough players with a long shot chance are Kevin Campbell (134) freshmeni, Tim Jordan (158), and Wyatt Wanner (134) freshmeni. “Tim is a pro bable fourth to sixth seat long STADIUM from page 11 would go over a million for the year.

He’s younger, but a talented wrestler,” Bemey notes. “After the tryouts we’ll have a benefit. We raise all our own funds by cutting wood, baking bread to sell at the fair, and we’ll make our entree fee for the tryouts by working security at the CODA dance,” Bemey adds. “Sometimes we forget the things behind athletics. There are dif ferent kinds of teams and team support. I like to let the team mates decide who’s going to go out for a tryout.
