Clark Unhinges LCC

Wednesday night, Feb 20, 2008 undefeated Lower Columbia College Red Devils played host to the Clark College Penguins. From the moment the game began, Clark owned it.


Sophomore Orlando Westbrooks and Bryan Martin led the team with 17 and 15 points respectively but this win was a team effort. From the moment the game began, Clark kept the pressure on with their defense. JC Alexander had the first two points, 4 minutes in Clark was up 8-4. With 10:44 to go in the first half, the game was tied 16-16, but that was the last time LCC would come anywhere near to gaining a lead. Clark hustled for every lose ball, forced turnovers, and pounded the boards.

Freshman Brandon Jones hit a 3 right at the buzzer to make the score at half time 40-24 Clark.

Going into the second half, LCC came out using a full court press. Clark kept their composure and 11 minutes into the second half the score was 64-38 Clark. Clark capitalized off of every missed opportunity by LCC. In the end it was clear, Clark wanted the win and they took it.

Final score 82-61 Clark.

Currently Clark is tied for 3 place with So. Puget Sound. Saturday is their last game of the season before the playoffs begin. They play Green River at Home.
