Scoreboard News
The donated scoreboards

operate the boards and will be
put to use in each of the teams'
next home games.

Freshman le fthander Greg Palmer, a draft pick of the Toronto Blue Jays, stares down a Lane batter in the second game of a
doubleheader against the Titans on Saturday. The freshman from Gresham High School entered the game with an earned run average
just over one before giving up 11 runs in a 14-4 loss. The league-leading Titans won the first game 15-5.
Cougars' best get pounded
JOHN THORBURN
Sports Editor
The Clackamas baseball team
got beat last week.
Luckily, the two losses that the
Cougars suffered were dealt by a
team that they should have lost
too, according to Clackamas Head
Coach Robin Robinson.
"We got beat by a very, very
good team on Saturday," noted
Robinson.
The Southern Region-leading
Lane Titans visited Clackamas
over the weekend weilding big
bats and tough pitching.
Coach Robinson attempted to
mount an attack on the Titans by
starting his two best pitchers
against the visitors.
After playing 14 innings of base

ball, Lane walked away with 15-5
and 14-4 victories.
"We threw our best pitchers
against them and they still
pounded us for 15 and 14 runs.
They're a tremendous hitting
squad."
In the 15-5 loss, Beaverton High
grad Glenn Boss gave up 10 earned
runs including a three-run
homerun by the Titans' Trevor
Brown.
Rian Alden went three for four
at the plate while Jason Farrimond
was a perfect three for three with
two runs batted in.
In the 14-4 loss, Greg Palmer
gave up nine earned runs on seven
hits in 2.1 innings pitched before
Chris Lohrey replaced him in the
third. The 6'8" righthander struck
out four while allowing three hits
in 2.2 innings pitched.
Farrimond and Alden led the
Cougars again with two for three
and two for four performances, re
spectively.
"Alden is crushing the ball right
now," noted Robinson. "He's re
ally strong at the plate."
The losses dropped Clackamas
to 3-5 in league play and a 6-16
record overall.
Last Tuesday, Mt. Hood visited
Clackamas for a doubleheader
which the two teams split.
In the first game, Alvin Ellis pro
pelled the Cougars to a 7-3 vicotry
over the Saints.
In the second game, Clackamas
was blanked 8-0 and managed only
three hits the entire game.
Yesterday, Clackamas took on
Linn-Benton in a single, nine-in
ning game at home.
The Cougars came from behind
in the bottom of the sixth inning to
escape with a 4-3 win behind
Farrimonds two doubles and a two
for four performance by Ellis.
Landolt recorded the win.
If the season ended today,
Clackamas would miss the play
offs as it currently sits in fourth
place in the region standings.
Only the top two finishers in
each region qualify for the
postseason^
"The Southern Region is the
toughest region in the Northwest
this season," noted Robinson.
"It will be tough just to get out
of the region and into the play
offs.
"Lower Columbia is in first
place in the West at 11 -0 and we
only lost to them 2-1 and 4-3 ear
lier in the year. We've got our
work cut out for us."
