Heart and perseverance catapulted the Cougars to fourth place in the men’s basketball tournament Thanksgiving weekend. The town of Mt. Vernon, Wash., hosted the Skagit Valley Cold Turkey Tournament.

Clackamas lost a close 84-87 battle against Northwest Indian College. They came back with an impressive 74-52 win over Tacoma Community College and finally a solid 82-71 victory against Wenatchee Valley College  for fourth place.

Score leaders in the Tacoma game were Tim Lott with 19 and Brandon Halter with 16. Grant Sitton grabbed eight rebounds and scored 11 points against Tacoma. Against Wenatchee, in the Cougars last game of the tournament, point leaders were Lott and Halter again. Lott hit 15 points and Halter 22. Ezekiel Martin snagged nine rebounds and scored 12 points.

Big Bend Community College took first place, defeating Skagit Valley College on Sunday. The Cougars moved to 4-2 in the season. They next face Clark College Saturday Dec. 7,  at 4 p.m. at home.
