SWOCC Update
An update on SWOCC sports activities from Athletic Director Mike Herbert. Golf – After Day 1 of the NWAC championships in Walla Walla, WA the men’s team is sitting in 5th place overall and the women’s team is in 4th. Blake Greenup is 11 strokes back of the leader in 7th and Tyler Franke is tied for 9th currently. The Championship rounds will wrap up this afternoon and you can follow both teams with live scoring at: https://www.birdiefire.com/tournament/22023/ Softball – The Laker softball team dropped 2 games vs. Clackamas CC last weekend, the Laker’s dropped game #1 with a final score of 2-6 after Breanna Bowling belted a leadoff homerun in the bottom of the first, but it wasn’t enough to stop the #4 ranked Cougars. Bowling also had a double and a triple in the game, but couldn’t get the single to round out the cycle. The Lakers then dropped game #2 0-5, but will head this weekend to the NWAC championships as the #5 ranked team in the NWAC as of this morning. There are still some games to play in the East Region today that may or may not impact the Lakers RPI. If the Lakers hold onto the #5 ranking they will face Everett CC on Friday morning at 10 am in the first round of the NWAC Championships at Delta Park in Portland, OR. A full bracket and championship information can be found at the Championship website: http://www.nwacsports.org/softball/championship.php Track – The track team was at the Southern Region Championships where Wilson Hodge finished 2nd in the shot put and Savanah Thurman won the discus.
