Passing by the baseball field this term may have been a confusing scene at times. Usually baseball would be seen in the spring, but fall has been busy for the men of Clackamas Community College’s baseball team as they have been hard at work keeping in shape and preparing for the spring season.
The Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges’ rules allow baseball to include a fall and winter schedule, before they start the spring season.
The fall schedule is seven weeks long with four game days planned against other schools. The rules allow baseball 12 weeks from Sept. 15 to Nov. 15 and Jan. 15 to March 1.
November and December are for conditioning only. March 1 is the first day allowed to play spring games. During the spring they are allowed 22 game days against opponents.
Returning this fall to CCC baseball are four key players:
• Scott Myers, all-league third baseman from Kearns HS, Utah.
• Richie McCarter, pitcher from Kearns HS, Utah.
• Thomas Kelly, catcher from Warrenton HS.
• Josh Combs, outfielder from Hudson’s Bay HS, Vancouver, Wash.
This fall Clackamas has a good group of freshmen recruits on campus including:
• Joe Strand, catcher from Seattle, Wash.
• Skyler Barkdull, infielder from Utah.
• Trevor Achenbach, infielder from Nevada.
• Kyle Austin, infielder from Wilsonville HS.
Clackamas has one of the fastest outfield groups in the northwest:
• Josh McLeod, outfielder from Seattle,Wash.
• Zach Caligdong, outfielder from Seattle, Wash.
• Justin Sievers, outfielder from Canby HS.
Several pitchers have shined this fall, including:
• Andrew Marquez from Milwaukie HS.
• Kylar Heaston from Tigard HS.
• Kennon Von Hollebeke from Connell HS, Wash.
• Zach Carter from Post Falls, Idaho.
