Sports Pg. 4 The Clackamas Print Wednesday, April 27,1994 Cougars having ’helluva year’ Sports phenomena by Frank Jorcan The Print Staff The CCC softball team suffered through a large amount of innings last week to post a 5-2 record, including two big wins over Lower Columbia and a 2-1 showing in the NWAACC Cross over Tournament. Last Tuesday, the Cou gars hosted Lower Columbia in a doubleheader for the Southern Division lead, and Clackamas hung tough for a 5-4 win in-10 innings, followed by a 2-0 shutout in the nightcap. The team came out ag gressive against LCCC in the first game, getting a run in the second, a run in the fourth and 2 more in the fifth for a 4-0 lead. The Lady Devils came backandstrung togetherfourbase hits, a walk and a “mental” error, and suddenly it was a whole new ball game, tied at 4. The Cougars won the game in the bottom of the 10th with an RBI single by Michelle Kolbo. “We came right out of the blocks against a pitcher that was 27-2 last year and we pounded the ball,” said Head Coach Paul Fiskum. “We did an excellent job in the field and at the plate, so this was a good win.” Becky Cordill threw a 2- hit shutout through 6 innings be fore the wheels came off. She was replaced by Jennifer Hinman, who tossed four solid innings to pick up the victory. Hinman came back in the second game to throw a 2-hit shut out to pace Clackamas in the 2-0 win. For the doubleheader, the Cougars had 21 hits on a very good pitcher, and committed no recorded errors. Fiskum described the effort by his team as “one of the better doubleheader sweeps that I have ever coached. Just a real gutsy effort by this team.” CCC played two mid week scrimmages against Concordia Collegeand Willamette University, and the review was kind of mixed. The women hit the ball well against Concordia, but the Cougars came out on the short end of a4-3 score. Diana Clift saw her first significant action of the season on the mound, giving up four runs on nine hits in nine innings of work. She did “a very good job,” according to Fiskum. Against Willamette, the Cougars regained some of the fire that was missing against Concordia and parlayed it into a 6-2 win. Hinman pitched five innings and gave up a run on two hits, while Cordill pitched four innings and gave up a run on one hit. Danielle Fitzgerald went 3-4 at the plate, scoring 3 runs and stealing 3 bases. Brandi Kamrath went 2-5, scoring 3 runs and driv ing in 4. The day saw “overall a good performance by our team,” according to the coach. On Saturday, the Cou gars hosted the annual NWAACC Crossover Tourney, and CCC opened up with Shoreline CC and pasted their opponent to the tune of a 17-1 score. This was actually a ball game, until the Lady Cougars fi nally figured out the opposing pitcher and proceeded to tattoo her for 15 runs on l2 base hits in the bottom of the 6th inning. “Their (Shoreline) pitcher threw a deceptively slow ball and we had trouble getting the timing down against her,” said Fiskum. “But once we did, the game was over.” Fitzgerald went 4-4 at the plate,'while Bridget Jones, Korinne Wellin, Emily Routson and Cordill all got 2 hits apiece, with Cordill driving in 4 runs and Wellin knocking in 2. Clift got her first official win of the year, scattering five hits and giving up only one run. She walked no one and struck out three. In the second game of the day, CCC ran into a buzzsaw of a Spokane Falls CC team that pounded the Cougars into sub mission, 10-3, “The best hitting team we have faced all season, they just killed us,” commented Coach Fiskum. “Although the morning game (the 17-1 rout over Shore line) did not help our attitude, as we weren’t as up for the game as we should have been, they just took it tous from the outset.” - Jones provided the of fensive fireworks for Clackamas, hitting a bases-loaded double in the fifth that made the score 5-3 in favor of SFCC, but SFCC put to gether five runs in the sixth to put the game away. In the last game of the day, Clackamas shook off the dis “1 I I I I I I I I I [Receive $5.00 for participating in a 1 * 5 li l dental screening.

Cordill pitched a two-hit shutout, and seven CCC players had two or more base hits in a solid effort, led by the 3-4 showing of Kris Strouhal and the 2 hits and 2 RBIofKolbo. Clackamas had no errors defensively as CCC closed out a productive day. “Right now, I am a little concerned about fatigue and inju ries, as we played a lot of innings last week. MajaWirkkala pulled amuscleagainst Yakima,Danielle Madigan did not play at all on Saturday because of poison oak and we have a lot of sore arms,” said Fiskum. “We have to go to Lower Columbia on Thursday for the rematch, and we need to have everyone ready and rarin’ to go. We have had a helluva year so far, a lot of great perfor mances by our players,” Fiskum continued. “We need to shore up our defense, get it more consistent for the stretch run to the NWAACC championships. If we continue to hit well, and work on the little things, this team could do great things.” Cougar Calendar Cougar Baseball 4/30 Mt Hood 1p.m. Gresham 5/3 Linn Benton 1 p.m. Home Cougar Softball 4/27 Lewis & Clark 3 p.m. Heme 4/30 Peirce 2 p.m. Home Cougar Track & Field 5/2 - 5/3 NWAACC Heptathlong/ Decathlon by Jeff Adams ’ \ The Prfo/Staff for foe 1994 season.
