elusive
by Jennifer Soper
Production Manager
The Clackamas Cougars
continued their quest for a
win last week, but came up
with three more losses leav­
ing them with a 6-28 record.
On May 8, the Cougars
hosted a twin bill against Linn
Benton. In the first game the
Cougars lost 7-2. Curt Alli­
son was the shining player with
two hits and one RBI. The
Cougars had only four hits in
the game.
In the second game the
Cougars kept the Linn Ben­
ton team to only four runs,
but still lost in a 4-1 effort.
Tim Ensley and Jim Squires
each had two hits; Squires also
had. one RBI.
“We played well in both
games,” said Head Coach
Robin Robinson. “They just
out played us.”
On May 9, the Cougars
played another home game
against Linfield. It ended in
defeat with a 12-8 score. Tim
Arendell had two doubles, but
no RBIs. Ken Hostetler had
one hit and one RBI. Hawk­
ins had two runs, both hit by
pitchers.
The May 12 game against
Chemeketa proved to be one
of the worst defeats the Cou­
gars have suffered all season.
With a final score of 25-4,
Chemeketa had 16 hits with
one grand slam home run.
Hostetler and Jeff Gra­
ham helped the Cougars save
face by both going 2-3 at the
plate.
“Hopefully We will stay
competitive,” said Robinson.
in a very speedy 54.8. Crane also
finished second in the long jump
leaping 22’8-1/4 for the silver.
Crane also helped his team­
mates in the 400m and the 1600m
relays taking both with dominat­
ing teamwork. In the 400m, Crane,
Parker, Gibson, and Larson crossed
the finish line at 42.1 seconds. The
1600m had the same impact, but
different teammates. This time
Qane was helped by Cougar team­
mates Gibson, Tierney, and Miller.
The Cougars tore up the track in
3:23.1 finishing in first.
Miller had a great day finish­
ing first in the long jump over
Crane soaring 23’7-3/4. In the
100m, Miller wound up with the
gold once again cruising across
the finish line in 11.2 seconds.
Miller barely beat teammate
Gibson, who finished second in
113 seconds. Miller wound up tak­
ing the gold in the triple jump,
landing a new school record, leap­
ing 49*3*.
Second place was wrapped up
by Richie Taylor with a jump of
46’4-1/2".
Mike Hieb broke his own
school record again and brought
home a first-place trophy in the
javelin with a toss of 226’6-1/2.”
Nav Larson showed why he is
one of the Cougars’ top runners.
Larson took the 400m in 48.4
seconds, and the 200m in 21.8
seconds. Gibson wasn’t too far
behind finishing third in the200m
with the time of 22.6 seconds.
Tim Beardall finished first in
the 10,000m in 32:06, while Moore
was second running the meet in
32:51. The 5,000m was again won
by long distance runner Beardall
in 15:29.7.
In the 3,000m steeplechase,
Moore came through for the
Cougars in 9:39.6, taking first and
outlasting Buse who finished sec­
ond with the time of 9:45.8.
“The men were just outstand­
ing from the start. They had that
‘killer instinct’ the whole meet,”
said Coach Mike Hodges. “They
just got tougher as the meet went
along, and were just tremendous
right down to the wire.”
The Cougar women’s track
team finished third with 86 points
which was better than expected as
they were plagued with injuries.
Angie Wright came off her inju­
ries and raced for the first time in
a month and had a field day, win­
ning three events. Wright won
the 5,000m in a time of 19:31,1. In
the 1,500m Wright found herself
all alone as she crossed the finish
line in a time of 5:06.4 taking the
first place trophy. In the 3,000m
Wright claimed her third gold of
the day finishing first in a time of
.11:07.6.
Jean Maree Lillard took her
Cougar pride seriously and wound
up with a first-place finish in the
discuss flinging the discus 139’-1/
2", which was a school record.
Chandler finished fifth with a toss
of 109’11-1/2". Lillard found her­
self in second in the shot put
heaving a toss of 427". Nlyen wasn’t
far behind in third with a toss of
38T". Nylen also finished second
in the javelin soaring the javelin
138’10".
Sonya Hult added to the
Cougars’ placement with times in
the 10,000 with 45:18.3.
“The women did very well but
were hurting because of injuries,
and still showed that they wanted
to win,’’commented Hodges.
Hodges will keep his Cougars
in training for the NWAACC
Championships hoping that his
men can be the first Oregon team
to ever win the championship. The
championships will be held on
Memorial weekend.
Found again team unity puts Cougars back on track

Staff Writer
With great improvement in
their attitude, the Clackamas
Cougar Women’s Softball team
made a drastic positive alteration
last weekend after a harsh learn­
ing experience on Thursday, May
10.
Competing in a double header
against Olympic College, the
Cougars were swept 2-3 and 0-3,
the first sweep of the year.
“Thursday was one of the worst
days of the year," stated Coach
Paul Fiskum. “There was a lot of
team adversity and we didn’t have
a good attitude.”
Outstanding performances
were made by Heather McCorkle
who pitched a two hitter, and by
Linda Gross who pitched a three
hitter.

pitching mound during the double
header, the hitting by the team as
a whole dominated Olympic Col­
lege 14-5.
During game one of the day,
both Kristi Northcutt and Julie
Stickel had two hits. Northcutt hit
singles in the first and seventh
innings and Stickel hit singles in
the fourth and sixth innings.
The second game of the se­
ries brought three different play­
ers to recognition as Jill Schnell,
Julie Troutner, and Jenny Wim­
berly all hit singles, two out of
three times up to bat.
Great improvement at the
double header held on Saturday,
May 12, against Grays Harbor
Collegers partly attributed to the
meeting held after the sweep last
Thursday.
“Our attitude, enthusiasm, and
hustle came back to where it should
