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

SUE RICHARDSON - Leading an^

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

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

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. I think it’s im­
portant to keep an attitude ofl
fairness and equality - and just
the experience of competing isj
important.”
