Sports THECLACKAMAS PRINT January 17,1990 Page 4 Cougars nip Lane 78-76 in OT by Mark A. Bonelli Sports Editor The Clackamas men’s basket ball team continues to be on a roll. The Cougars improved their league leading record to an untar nished 4-0, and appear to be a team of destiny. It took a little bit of luck and magic for Clackamas to pull off a home win over Lane College on Saturday. Lane held a narrow 28- 27 halftime lead, and appeared to have wn the game, but they didn’t count on the late game heroics of Dan Bartel. His lone three-pointer of the contest tied the game, and sent Clackamas into an overtime period with new life. Lane took command in over time early, and built a four point lead with less than one minute to go in OT. The lead seemed safe, but once again, Clackamas’ “Car diac Kids” responded to the chal lenge. The Cougars turned up the defensive intensity, forcing two straight Lane turnovers. David Daniels stripped two Lane play ers, and Clackamas converted to amazingly come back and post a 78-76 win in overtime. “It really says a lot about a team when they win the close games,” said Point Guard Daniels. “Our defense really turned it up. We started using the press, and once their starting guard fouled out with a minute and a half left, they couldn’t get the ball over mid court,” said Daniels. Clackam as Coach Royce Kiser was happy to get the win, but feels that his team must keep getting better to keep winning. "We squeaked out of here with a win, but we got pounded on the boards. We really need to be aggressive,;we’re going to be out- sized by a lot of teams, but we’ve got to board better,” said Kiser. The Cougars were out-rebounded 39-13. Daniels was the leading scorer for Clackamas as they knocked off Mt Hood 72-69 Dec. 10 at ML Hood. Daniels pumped in 28 points, connecting on 10 in 19 from the field, and 1 in 3 from the three point range. He also dished out eight assists. Tim Osborne chipped in 15 points and seven rebounds. “I think that we’re a little bit better than people thought we would be. Some teams have more talent than us, but we just play better as a team. We have 4-5 people who could score every night so people have a hard time just guarding one guy,” said Daniels. The Cougars, 4-0, currently sit alone atop the league stand ings, but have a very big game tonight at home against Umpqua. Umpqua was one of the presea son favorites to win the division. “Umpqua is tough. This is an important game for us. We’d like to beat them and S WOCC, and go down to Chemeketa 6-0. That would really put us in the driver’s seat,” said Daniels. One of the only few things that have been missing at the Cougar home games have been fans. Although the turnout thus far this season has improved over last year, players would like to see more enthusiasm. “We’re playing really well, some very exciting basketball We’d love to see this place packed and roaring. Anyone who comes to the game tonight is guaranteed to see an exciting game,” said team player Troy Merrill.
