Wrestlers prove strength, mental toughness
by Frank Jordan
Staff Writer
The CCC wrestling team
enjoyed a very successful week,
winning four dual meets and
placing high in a California tour­
nament.
On Nov. 23, the Cougars
wrestled against Pacific Lutheran
University in Tacoma and de­
feated them 21-18. Coach Jim
Jackson was very pleased with
the results. “We felt good about
what we had accomplished. We
figured that we would beat them
later on in the season, but we
came out strong and wrestled
well,” said Jackson. “We had a
few people wrestling up a weight
class from their normal weights,
and we competed really well.”
Winning matches for the
Cougars against PLU included
Dan Uptegrove, with a 12-2 de­
cision at 126 lbs; Blake Tomp­
kins, a 23-8 winner at 134 lbs;
Derek Puckett, an 8-4 victor at
158 lbs; Travis Bonneau, a 7-4
winner at 167 lbs; Doug Mad­
dux, winning a 13-8 decision at
177 lbs and Nathan Sullivan, with
a 9-4 win in the heavyweight
class.
Thanksgiving weekend saw
the Cougar grapplers in the Las­
sen College Tournament in Susan­
ville, CA. Clackamas defeated
three opponents in dual matches
during the tourney.
Clackamas wrestled Labette
College from Labette, KS in the
first match, and deTeated Labette
by a score of 20-19. Winning
matches for the Cougars were
Bill Jones at 158 lbs, Tompkins,
Bonneau, Maddux and Sullivan.
In the second dual, CCC beat
Lincoln College of Illinois, 24-
14. Winning Cougars included
Chad Westover at 142 lbs, Upte­
grove, Tompkins, Dean Roth,
Maddux, Bonneau and Sullivan.
In the final dual match,
Clackamas defeated Northeast­
ern Oklahoma, 32-16. Winning
CCC wrestlers included Roth,
Bonneau and Maddux. N.E. Okla­
homa also forfeited three matches
to the Cougars.
“Those three teams that we
wrestled are generally ranked in
the top ten nationally year in and
year out,” commented Jackson.
“So, we are very excited to
wrestle and beat three quality
teams. I think that we are headed
for some very good things with
this group.”
On Saturday, CCC partici­
pated in the community college
division of the Lassen Invitational
Tournament. Five CCC wres­
tlers placed in the tournament.
Those wrestlers, who placed in
their weight categories included
Westover and Bonneau in first
place, Sullivan in second place,
Maddux and Tompkins in third
place.
‘We wrestled very, very well.
I was very pleased,” commented
Jackson. “Although our condi­
tioning is a bit off for this stage of
the season, we were in much better
condition than those guys that we
wrestled.
The number one thing that
stood out for me is how much
mentally tougher we were than
anyone else there,” Jackson con­
tinued. “Even when our guys lost
matches, we were still attacking,
still giving 100 percent every

time. It truly was a great week­
end as far as I am concerned.”
The next action for the Cou­
gar wrestlers is tonight, Dec. 2,
with a dual meet at Pacific Uni­
versity in Forest Grove. The
next home action for CCC will
be this Friday, Dec. 4. with a tri­
angular meet with Big Bend and
Highline Community Colleges,
at 5 p.m. in the Randall Gym.
This Saturday, Dec. 5, the Cou­
gars will wrestle in the Pacific
Open, again in Forest Grove.

The Clackamas Community
College women’s basketball team
started off their season in win­
ning fashion by beating Lower
Columbia Community College
and Grays Harbor Community
College in a tournament they
hosted over the weekend.
The Cougars opened their
season Friday night and beat
Lower Columbia 74-64.
The women started out slow,
but ended up having a great de­
fensive and offensive game, ac­
cording to the coaches.
Assistant Coach Trev Kiser
felt that Jenny Topham, Melissa
Baughman and Tereasa Brown
played well against Lower Co­
lumbia. “Jenny played good.
Melissa played pretty good,” Kiser
said. “Brown stepped up as a
freshman and did something most
freshmen don’t do this early in
the season.”
Brown came off the bench
and hit 10 of 14 field goals. She
scored 20 points and grabbed 12

weren’t at the top of their game,
the coaching staff saw some
positive things. •
“Jenny (Topham),... Janell
(Temple) and Shari (Wehling)
played well,” Kiser said. “Brandy
(Toivonen) had the best game
she’shadall year.I know Brandy
doesn’t think so, but she did.”
Topham led in scoring and
rebounds once again by hitting
for 16 points and grabbing 17
rebounds.
Shawna McComb
scored 14 points and Toivonen
had 15 rebounds.
As a team, Clackamas out­
rebounded Grays Harbor 57-25.
They were also 5 of 8 from three
point land as Baughman hit 2-2,
Topham 2-3 and Temple 1-2.
Their free throw percentage left
something to be desired once
again, as they hit a cool 12 of 22.
Overall, the coaching staff
was pleased with the things they
saw over the weekend.
The team will be trying to
improve their record tonight when
they host a tough Clark Commu-
nity College squad at 6 p.m.
