Domination, intimidation,
iemolition. These three words can
>est describe the Clackamas
vomen’s basketball season at the
»resent time. The Cougars have
tot been tested as yet this season
s they have a 6-0 league record,
md a 18-0 overall record. What
nakes the Cougars so impressive
s that the average margin of vic-
ory for Clackamas thus far this
eason is over 32, and no team has
¡ven come close. That again was
he case Saturday night, as the
Cougars hosted SWOCC and
idded another blowout to their
nark, posting aho-hum, another-
lay-at-the-office 98-64 win.
Clackamas came out and put
heir opponent away early. Angela
Jewlett sparked the Cougars to
in 56-25 halftime advantage,
iewlett finished with a game high
10 points and seven assists. Kelli
frown, who has played very well
is of late, helped her backcourt
nate by scoring 14 points. JJ.
Brennan added 13 points.
Rebounding proved to be the
:ey decisive factor in this game as
he Cougars pounded the glass,
rat-rebounding SWOCC 50-24.
Xlicia Stephenson skyed for 13
toards.
“We’re playing very well right
tow, and I don’t really see us los­
ing. Hewlett and Brown are both
playing very well together. They
are a heck of a backcourt tan­
dem,” said Coach Phil Garver.
It was the inside work of Pam
Pember that lead Clackamas past
Umpqua on Wednesday, Jan. 17.
Pember pumped in 26 points and
added 10 rebounds.
“Pam has played well all year,
she has been really solid in the
middle, really consistent,” com­
mented Garver.
Hewlett scored 24 points and
dished out 11 assists, and Alicia
Stephenson scored 17 points and
pulled down 10 boards, as the
Cougars went on to beat Umpqua
93-74.
“We’re solid at every posi­
tion. Our starters are all playing
real well, and our bench is really
contributing. They’re seeing a lot
of playing time because our start­
ers haven’t really needed to play a
lot in the second half” said Garver.
Despite an unblemished rec­
ord and lack of competition, the
Cougars haven’t seen a lot of fan
support at home this year. Atten­
dance at the SWOCC game Sat­
urday was estimated at a mere 50.
“We’d like to see a lot more
people at our games. We’ve cer­
tainly played well, so there should
be no reason why people shouldn’t
want to see us,” remarked Garver.
