blocker Madison McBee who
has 80.5 points on the season,
freshman libero Josie Carlson
who has 73.5 points on the
season, and freshman outside
hitter Taylor Jobe who has
contributed 71.0 points so
far.Their most recent game
fell on Oct. 9 at Linn-Benton
Community College, where
they got swept 3“ O. The
Cougars were led by Carlson,
who contributed 6 kills and 8
points, and sophomore middle
blocker Madison Mcbee, who had
4 kills and 6 points.
The next home game is Friday, Oct.
18 vs Lane. Friday night’ s game is Dig
Pink night, so come out and show your
support for those battling breast cancer
by wearing pink and cheering your Cougars to
victory.
Volleyball season is well underway and the
Cougars find themselves struggling
in a stout Southern Region so far.
Compiling an overall record of 10-
18, Clackamas is in rebuilding
mode this season after multiple
players elected to continue
their careers elsewhere or stop
playing altogether.
CCC only returned five of
14 players from last year’ s
squad that finished fifth in
the South Region with a 8-7
record in conference play
and missed the playoffs after
falling to Clark College in
a win-or-go-home play-in
game.
Fast forward to the current
season and the Cougars are
in seventh place in the South
Region with a 2-6 record in
conference play. Touting seven
freshmen, the Cougars have found it
difficult to find their footing, suffering
through two six-game losing streaks and
have yet to win on the road in conference
play.
