J Page 10 The INDEPENDENT, April 13,1994 Tamara Fulmer leads the way as Logger golfers improve skills Two weeks ago, Vernonia High School golf coach Dan Foss could hardly wait for the first meet in Astoria. His im patience is understandable. In the first meet of the sea son, at the Country Club in A storia , the team fa ile d to place because of a lack of p la y e rs , but so p h o m o re Tamara Fulmer took an indi vidual first out of 29 competi tors. The next day, Fulmer, who plays on both the girls’ and boys’ teams, placed second and received a m edal in a meet against Nestucca. Four days later, against Scappose, Tamara scored a 90 and re ceived a medal, leading Ver nonia to their first victory of the season. Foss fe e ls his team did well at home, “It was a great first win for us; we wanted to do well at home. The team improved their score by over Rain and losses dampen VHS baseball progress A young V ernonia H igh School baseball team is on a dry spell, with an 0-2 record in sp ite of the rainy A p ril weather. The Loggers’ first game of the season, at Dayton, was rained out at the top of the second inning, with VHS be hind 4-3. A day later, they travelled to Neah-Kah-Nie, losing to the Pirates by a con vincing score of 18-0. Senior Steve Wolf took the loss optimistically, “We played really hard. We need more practice in batting and pitch ing and then we should be a successful team, I hope.” With the rainy weather an important factor on the base ball schedule, the Loggers took more than a week of rest w h ile a w a itin g th e ir game against number-one ranked Warrenton on Monday, only to have Warrenton pitch its second no-hitter of the sea son and win 11-0. “We’re lacking pitching and batting practice,” sophomore A rea students on OSU Honor Roll COUPON Area students named to the Oregon State University honor roll for the winter term include senior Nikolas Har- rang and sophomore Adam Heiser of Banks; Jordana Ja cobs, a senior from Manning; and senior Ricky Whitehead from Timber.
