Cougar softballer Kayce Ernst grips the grain and steps up to the plate during a recent
home game. The Cougars took home fifth place at the NWAACC Crossover Tourney.
The Clackamas softball team
took fifth place last weekend at the
NWAACC Crossover Tournament
in Salem, defeating Treasure Valley
CC,-Southwestern Oregon CC and
the College of the Siskiyous.
The Cougars came out flat in
the opening game of the tourney
and lost to lightly-regarded Blue
Mountain CC by a score of 3-2.
BMCC got a two-run home run
and an RBI double in the second
inning and held on for the win.
“That
pitcher
for
Blue
Mountain was as good as we have
seen all year,” said Head Coach
Paul Fiskum. “She had an out
standing rise ball and it kept us off-
balance all game. We may have
taken them lightly; I don’t know.
But they played great and we didn’t,
plain and simple,”
Clackamas bounced back in
game two, getting a one-hit, eight
strikeout performance from
Holly Marlow and an RBI single
from Kayce Ernst in a 1-0 win
over Treasure Valley CC from
Ontario, Ore.
“All of our hits against TVCC
were foul balls,” said Fiskum,
laughing. “Our level of focus was
much better between the. first game
and the second. We really came
back mentally. The TVCC pitcher
was completely different than the
pitcher we faced from Blue
Mountain. The TVCC pitcher
moved the ball around quite a bit
and we had a hard time adjusting.
But we got just enough to win.”
The Cougar bats came alive .in
game three Sunday morning, with
Cijay Koanui going 3-4 at the plate
with two runs scored, two RBI and
two stolen bases and Nicole Obrist
going 2-4 as Clackamas defeated
Southwestern Oregon CC 7-2.
Marlow started the game, going
four innings, and picked up her sec
ond win of the tournament.
Chelsea Koch pitched two innings
in relief for the Cougars.
