The Clackamas baseball team
went through another up-and-
down week, losing on the road to
Lane CC, then splitting a road
doubleheader against Linn-
Benton CC.
Tuesday, Lane CC put together
three two-run innings, defeating
Clackamas 6-0. The Cougars scat
tered 11 hits, but couldn’t put
them together in bunches to score
against the Titans.
Wes Warfield started on the
mound for Clackamas and
“pitched a pretty decent
ballgame,” according to Head
Coach Robin Robinson. “He
(Warfield) just couldn’t get any
big outs when we really could

Chris Silva led the hit parade for
Clackamas with two base hits, but
was left in scoring position both
times.
Saturday, the Cougars traveled
to Linn-Benton CC in Albany.
Clackamas split the twinbill, win
ning the first game 8-1 before los
ing the nightcap 9-1.
In the first game, Aaron Shanks
kept up his impressive pitching ef
forts, scattering five hits over six
innings, and notching his third win
of the season. Matt Paulsen led
the first game domination with
three hits, while Mike Armstrong,
Scott Hunter and Matt Cooksey
each contributed run-scoring
doubles in the Cougar blowout
win.
“We swung the bats real well
and we got very solid pitching
from Shanks,” Robinson said. “It
was one of our better efforts of
the year. I always knew that we
would have a breakout game, un
fortunately, it comes a little late in
the year.”

“We started our normal starting
lineup in the first game, and the
guys who didn’t start in the first
game ended up playing a lot in the
second,” Robinson said. “It is the
end of the season for us and we
just want to get everyone some
playing time.”
Armstrong went 6-9 batting in
the doubleheader rapping out two
doubles and two triples while
Hunter and Cooksey added two-
base hits in the second game.
Clackamas winds up the 2001
baseball season against Lane CC
in a home doubleheader Thursday
on the Cougar diamond. Lane is
currently third in the NWAACC
Southern Division standings, so
the twinbill will have playoff impli
cations. Only the top two teams
from each division go on to the
NWAACC tournament, so Lane
will be fired up to play well. Cou
gar pride is at stake in the double
header, so the coach is optimistic

about his team and how they will
perform.
“We will start Shanks in one of
the two games; we will see if we can
get him some votes onto the All
League team. Some of our other
guys should get some mention as
well,” Robinson said. “We have not
had a very good season, but all of
our players have performed near
their best. It is all that I could have
asked from them. Just a few more
breaks here and there and it could
be us fighting for a playoff spot.”
One of the brighter spots lately
for the Cougars is the recruitment of
freshman Joel Odegaard from
Newberg High School. His solid
play behind the plate has been a real
plus for CCC.
“Joel has been real solid and is a
really good sign for us for next year,”
Robinson said. “With a good off
season and some time to work on
more consistent hitting, Joel will be
a real good player in the 2002 sea
son. He is already a good defensive
catcher.”
The doubleheader with Lane CC
begins at 1 p.m. on Thursday.
ishing with 41 points. Murphy won
the high jump, the 800, was part of
both winning relays and won the
long jump with a personal best of
17-4, which was the fifth best jump
in school history. She also took
third in the heptathlon. The other
top scorer was Becky Holliday.
Holliday tied her national record
in the pole vault, setting the South
ern Region record at 14-0. She also
took third in the long jump behind
teammates Murphy and Reece,
won the 400 and was part of both
winning relay teams. The score of
these four women combined could
have beaten the second place team
in the region, which was Clark.
The men’s second place win
was below their expectations even
though they had a winning relay
team and broke or tied individual
school and Southern Region
records.
“They just haven’t come to
gether as a team yet,” said Kegg.
“When they get some team enthu
siasm, they can be unbeatable. I
think they still have the talent to
win an NWAACC title. The men
are going to have to come back
with a little more fire and redeem
themselves.”
Marcus Cooper won the high
jump and tied the Southern Region
record of 6-11. He now leads the
conference in the long jump by five
inches. Isaac Fredrick won the 100-
meter dash with a school record.
He also won the 200 and was a
part of the winning 400-meter re
lay team. Cory Loebl was second
in the shot put and discus and
fourth in the hammer throw. Trevor
Dodge won the 1500 and took sec
ond in the 800. Tim Morse was
second in the long jump and
fourth in the pole vault.
