SPORTS Clackamas Community College Page 8 A whole lot of shakin’ goin’ on by Jerry Ulmer Columnist________________ Yes, the Blazers screwed up pretty good in passing up Michael Jordan for Sam Bowie. It’s com­ mon knowledge. But it seems that there’s a bandwagon cruising around town that theorizes that the Blazer brass could not dif­ ferentiate between Larry Bird and Blazer Bill on draft day. Not so. No, this is not the rah-rah Blazer Page from This Week Magazine but it says here that Bucky Buckwaiter has excelled over re­ cent drafts, possibly making up for the big boo-boo. Buckwaiter’s prize has to be nabbing Jerome Kersey in the se­ cond round from Longwood Col­ lege. Terry Porter was picked from an NAIA school and has blossomed into a top point guard. Critics love to mention the selection of Walter Berry, but didn’t the Blazers get Kevin Duckworth out of that draft? So what if the Blazers picked Rus­ sian Arvidas Sabonis, it was either him or Greg Dreiling. The jury is still out on Ronnie Mur­ phy (Portland could have selected Mark Jackson), and when it comes back in it likely will be overweight. Sports off Campus by Jerry Ulmer Staff Writer On the subject of drafts, the Charlotte Hornets and Miami Heat will join the NBA next year following an expansion draft. Each NBA team protects eight players and then the Hornets and Heat get the tablescraps. Expan­ sion teams generally end up with players slightly less coveted than General Noriega. But regardless SE of who fills out their rosters there’s little question whether they’ll be able to stick it to the Clippers. Here’s a guess list of who might be available, noting that the Blazers will protect Sam Bowie: GUARDS— Dirk Minniefield, Scott Skiles, Steve Colter, Steve Alford, Michael Adams, Mike Evans, Lester Conner, Darnell Valentine, Wes Matthews, Michael Holton, Rickey Green, Spud Webb, John Battle, An­ drew Toney, Darrell Walker, T.R. Dunn, Otis Smith, World Free, Milt Wagner, Bernard Thompson, Ronnie Murphy, Jerry Sichting. FORWARDS— Al Wood, Reggie Lewis, Mike Sanders, Jerry Reynolds, Danny Vranes, Mark Alarie, Tellis Frank, Buck Johnson, Terry Tyler, Ed Pin­ ckney, Russ Schoene, Fred Roberts, Mike Brown, Charles Jones, Jerome Whitehead, Earl Cureton, Mike Smrek, James Bailey, Caldwell Jones, Jawaan Oldham. CENTERS— Chris Washburn, Artis Gilmore, Kent Benson, James Edwards, William Bed­ ford, Stuart Gray, Paul Mokeski, Chris Welp, Mark McNamara, Uwe Blab, Bill Wennington, Dave Feitl, Greg Kite, Petur Gudmundsson, Bill Walton. •Oregon State will save $250,000 by cutting its track pro­ gram next year. I know it’s tough for Oregonians to accept that there will be no more great moments in OSU track, but we just have to swallow hard and go on. What will they do with the extra dough? You know it’s not going into the football program. It likely will go to a group of OSU scientists experimenting on a vaccine for bad breath. “Johnny Be Good,” a new movie released starring Anthony Michael Hall, answered some key questions - unfortunately the wrong ones. We now know that Hall, who played an illegally recruited high school quarter­ back, can’t carry a movie by himself. This movie missed an ex­ cellent opportunity to make a statement about recruiting viola­ tions and the turmoil surrounding the families involved. Instead, the plot insulted us by laying a path of tacky, exaggerated characters Classifieds * Help Wanted HELP WANTED: someone to work part-time with cleaning stalls; -, hay grooming, etc. 632-4727.

Here’s how they’ll finish: AL EAST - New York Yankees (the pitching is finally there, watch out for rookie Al Leiter) AL WEST - Oakland (Canseco and McGuire get help this year, the Twins will finish under .500) NL EAST - New York Mets (subway series talk will be ram­ pant) NL WEST - Los Angeles Dodgers (the pitching has always been there, now the hitting is) The Seahawks are talking about trading Bosworth. Don’t do it. Trade Kreig. Please. To borrow a premise from David Letterman, here’s my Top 15 reasons the Seahawks keep Dave Kreig: 15.

Refuses to play better until the booing stops. 6. Coach Knox thinks he looks like Y.A. Tittle with hair. 5. His knowledge of Kingdome dectrical system just too valuable to give away. 4. While being slow footed and an erratic passer, he is a compas­ sionate, gentle, and loving man. 3. Saving him for when bounce passes are legal. 2. Only quarterback in AFC who can curl his tongue. 1.

After a disappointing third place finish in league competition last season, the Clackamas men’s baseball team appears to have what it takes to turn this season into a winning one. Coach Paul Roe der seems con­ fident that his .'sophomore dominated team will have much more success than did last year’s dub. “Our goal is to win the whole dang thing. We do have the horses to do it,” said Roeder. The Cougars have been hit by il­ lness and injury which has caused some problems during the exhibi­ tion schedule. “Illness has cer­ tainly hurt us this spring,” remarked coach Roeder. Clackamas will be returning nine players, among them all­ league shortstop John Davenport and returning outfielders Quinn Putnam, Ron Kirkpatrick and Dave Horine.

Next up for the Cougars was the Canadian na­ tional team. Clackamas played a competitive game through five in­ nings, but a big sixth inning by the Canadians lifted them to a 22-10 victory. Greg Martin suf­ fered the loss for Clackamas. In the third game, Steve Huffaker pitched very strong for Qackamas, allowing only two earned runs. The Cougars out hit Yakima, 6-3 but five costly errors killed them. Mental errors again proved costly, as they fell to cross town rival Mt. Hood 4-1. The first Saint run was balked in, and another error by the Cougars set the stage for a three run homer by Mt. Hood to lift them to 4-1. Qackamas ended that tourna­ ment with a 1-4 record. by Mark Borrelli Staff Writer_ 1 1 65.43 3 49.87 1872 -22*29 1 |3 1 1 4 44.2Q -13.80 22.85 5 55.56 9.82 6 70.82 -33.43 1 D50 Illuminant, 2 degree observer 1 1 1 7 63.51 34.26 59.60 1 1 |2 1 I 8 39.92 11.81 -46.07 9 52.24 10 97.06 -0.40 1.13 Density 18*51 ' I ’ 11(A) 92.02 -0.60 0.23 I ' 9Q 87.34 •0.75 0.21 If ' ¿13 I ' die 14 72.06 0.43 0*28 I ' 15 62.15 -1.07 0.19 I 1 0| I ohii J. ? i ï ■■¡Ml Z| l 72 .J
