Lady Cougars lose by 1 in OT
by Scott Morris
Staff Writer
The Mount Hood CC Saints
used a 12 point halftime lead to
hold off a second half rally by the
Lady Cougars and win 76-75 in
overtime at MHCC Wednesday
night.
“We just were not ready to
play at the start of the game,” said
Coach Spaulding. “We beat our­
selves.”
The Lady Cougars once again
had strong performances from
Launa Meek in a game that could
have gone either way.
Muck, who according to Coach
Spaulding “is playing great at both
ends of the court,” finished with
22 points while shooting 62 per­
cent from the floor and also grabbed
nine rebounds.
Topham ,who played her best
all-around game to date as a Lady
Cougar, finished with 17 points,
19 rebounds, and 7 steals.
Meek also played a solid game
and finished with 22 points for the

DeVry should drop the "D"
by Kevin Shields
StaffWriter
DeVry Institute, an Atlanta­
based computer college that’s a
member of NAIA Division II, has
been required by SenateBill90210
to remove the “D” from their title
as it has become apparent they play
no“d”efense. Therefore, from now
on, they will be referred to as EVry,
as in "every" team wants to sched­
ule them for a non-conference tune-
up. Are you listening, Georgetown?
That’s the story I expected to
read after learning that the Troy
State Trojans pulled out a real
squeaker over the DeVry Hoyas
258-141 in a college basketball game
last Sunday. Yes, 258-141, which
marks the first time any NCAA
team has eclipsed the 200-point
barrier. In a related news story, the
friction from the scorekeeper’s
pencil started a small fire; no inju­
ries were reported.
Virtually every scoring record
imaginable was broken. Total points
by a team, 258; the old record was
187; field goals made, 102; old
record, 79; 3-point field goals made,
51, shattering the previous record
of25;pointsinonehalf, 135,which
broke Troy State’s 1991 record of
103; and the number of large gro­
cery bags (the perfect size to cover
a head) stolen from a local 7-11
near the DeVry campus in prepara­
tion for their next home game. The
numbers keep going and going and
going.
This poses the question, did
DeVry have any resemblance of a
defense? I think the rock-n-roll
grandma on the Budweiser com­
mercial can provide you with this
answer. Even Manute "The Hu­
man Flyswatter" Bol of the 76ers
might have even been able to break
into double figures against such a
tenacious defense that committed
six fouls the entire game (Troy
State had one).
The 258 points Troy State
scored works out to more than six
points a minute. To compare this
feat to something more relevant
right here at Clackamas, lets con­
vert points into money,»© P=$ and
one minute into-a $30 dollar text-1
book so M= a booK For every $30
textbook (M) you return at the end ’
of the term you get $6 (P). Actu­
ally, I don’t know how this relates
but I thought it would be a good
time to complain about the book
refund policy.
Back to the game. I’m curious
what the coach for DeVry Com­
puter Institute used as a halftime
talk. “We’re only down 123-53; if«
the zebras would quit homering us \
we’d be right there. You look like
you’ve got an Image Writer 2000 -
strapped to your legs. .Npipore.
Nintendo Gameboys allowed on'
the court until you can prove you
deserve it. Come on Erkel, re­
move that pocket protector, you;
should know the plays by now.”
What’s the record for the
number of clipboards broken over
players’ heads during a halftime
anyway?
I guess I could call the Indiana
Athletic Director for the current
record. “Is coach Knight in?”
The second half started with a
familiar chant from the Troy State
crowd toward the DeVry players.
“Typewriters rule, typewrit­
ers rule.”
Ouch, have they no mercy?
The DeVry fans retaliated with:
“We got Microsoft Word, yes
we do, we got Microsoft Word, so
font you.”
The game looked like it would
go into overtime until with 7:57
remaining in the second half, Troy
State broke the 200 point barrier.
The only suspense that remained
was the possibility that DeVry would
win back their Nintendo pri vileges.
Memo to Coach Kiser: Please
schedule DeVry next season as it
would be good publicity for the
college. In turn, DeVry has prom­
ised a computer for every ten shots
your team misses on purpose.
