split with Linn Benton.
Ryan Moore pitched the first
five innings. Shortstop Cory
Rooper went three for five, with
three RBI’s. Matt White went two
for four with a double.
“In the second game we had
trouble on the mound; we didn’t
pitch that well,” said Head Coach
Robin Robinson. Jason Gardner
threw the last two innings and
“did really well,” continued
Robinson.
The Cougars took one game
of the double header against Linn
Benton on Saturday. In the first
game, Linn Benton won 6-3.
“We pitched pretty well in the
fourth only giving up three runs,”
says Robinson. In the ninth the

in the fifth inning scoring two.
Jason Mann and Jeff Boen both
went two for three. The final score
was 8-2, Clackamas.
“We’re in second place now,

good opportunity of getting
there,” said Robinson.

be a makeup game against
Linfield on Thursday at 3 p.m,
