The Clackamas Cougar soft-
ball team started their 1992 season
by competing in four scrimmages
with four-year schools and posting
a 5-1 record in league games.
The Cougars played two evenly
matched scrimmages, which don’t
count toward their league record,
with PSU and Pacific University
and dominated in their scrimmages
against Linfield and Warner Pa
cific.

Last Thursday, the Cougars
played another doubleheader against
Chemeketa, a team that is trying to
get enough funding to become an
intercollegiate team.
“I hope that they are able to get
the funding, because they have a
really good club there,” commented
Fiskum.
In the first game, Dawn Seas-
trom and Holum combined for a
one-hitter to lead the Cougars to a
6-1 win. Lisa DeMeres was the
RBI leader with three and Launa
Meek hit her first home run of the
year.
In game two, Holum and Hef
flinger combined for a three-hitter
and held Chemeketa to only one
run while the Cougar offense scored
four runs to sweep the doubleheader.
Holly Rahn went 2-3 at the plate
and scored two runs for the best
offensive performance of the game.
The Cougars’ next game is
today against Willamette Univer
sity in Salem at 4 p.m.
“These games were a good
warmup for our season,” commented
Coach Paul Fiskum. “It’s good to
play teams from the four-year
schools.”
During spring break, the team
traveled to California to play against
Taft College and Pierce College.
Taft is the number nine-ranked
junior college program in Califor
nia .
The Cougars split a double
header with Taft by losing game
one 8-3 and winning game two 12-
1.
“Errors and walks hurt us in
the first game, but we came back in
game two with good pitching from
Jennifer Hefflinger and 15 hits from
our offense,” said Fiskum.
The Cougars then swept the
doubleheader with Pierce, winning
5-1 and 2-0. Hefflinger and Kim
Holum shut down Pierce’s offense.
Holum had eight strikeouts in her
