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

appointing performance against
Spokaneandtookitouton Yakima
Valley, beating their opponent
from central Washington, 8-0 in
five innings.
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.”
