Water Issues Stressed InWildlifeEducation Effort Wildlife educators from Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado have joined forces to develop aquatic education materials for school teachers. Materials will include instructional activities to supplement supple-ment existing project WILD materials and will be available for use by Utah teachers in the Fall of 1987. Project WILD, an environmental education program emphasizing wildlife, has been presented to nearly 2000 Utah teachers since 1983. According to Susan McLane, project coordinator for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, the aquatic supplements will greatly enhance the awareness of Utah youth regarding water issues and fish and wildlife. The four-state effort was one of six regional workshops in the nation. Utah officials hope to assist in field testing the new materials next year.

Missy Anderson McCann, a daughter of Dave and Helen Anderson of Orem, played a significant part this season in the Women's Athletic program at Utah Technical College. Missy was a starting guard for the Lady Wolverine basketball team, a squad which held a number three national ranking for most of the season and finished with an impressive 25-1 record. Missy averaged 11 .6 points per game for the Wolverines, and was one of the best shooters on the team, hitting 50 percent of her field goal attempts and 77 percent of her free throws. She was an excellent ball handler and dished out over 100 assists on the season, averaging 4.1 per game. At the season's end, Missy was selected First Team All-WICAC and First Team Region 18. When the basketball season ended, Missy traded her gym shoes for cleats, taking to the field as the starting center fielder for the UTC Lady Wolverine fast-pitch Softball team. She quickly demonstrated her prowess on the Softball diamond, developing a reputation as a fine fielder with an excellent throwing arm. Missy committed only one error on the season, leading the outfielders with a .978 fielding average. At the plate, Missy hit .232 on the season. Her efforts helped the team to a 19-14 record and a second place finish in the conference. For her accomplishments, she was selected First Team All- WICAC, MISSY ANDERSON MCCANN making her a first team all-conference player in two sports. Missy is studying Legal Assisting at Utah Technical College, and though she has used up her eligibility in basketball, she could still play one year of softball while she continues her studies. UTC softball coach Don Cox is excited about the possibilities. "She indicated to me that there is a good chance that she'll return next season. It depends on whether or not she completes the credits she needs to graduate before then. We'd sure like to have her back. She's a real as for us in center field. Tigers Bite Into Tournament By Rich Gibbons The Orem Tiger baseball team will have their chance to redeem themselves this week in the Region 2 tournament. The tournament will determine where Region 2 team will be slated going into State. This tournament tour-nament is similar to the Round Robin tournament for basketball. The Tigers go into the tournament tourna-ment with 1-6 Region record. Basical ly, the Tigers could do well in the tournament tour-nament if they can take advantage of hitting their fellow teammates in. The Tigers have hit pretty well this year but, because of lack of experience, the Tigers are having men on base to end innings. The Tigers have displayed defensive skills during the year. Look for the Tigers to be the surprise sur-prise team in the tournament. Wolverines Place 3rd In NJCAA The Utah Technical College baseball team finished third in the NJCAA Region 18 Tournament held this weekend in Twin Falls, Idaho. The Wolverines, fresh off their third consecutive ICAC championship, had hoped to add a region crown to their laurels, but dropped two games to Northern Idaho to eliminate themselves from title contention. Northern Idaho went on to lose in the championship game, 5-3 to the host school, College of Southern Idaho. CSI will now host a district playoff with NJCAA Region 9 to determine entrance to the National Champion ship Tournament in Grand Junction, Colorado, May 24-31. The Wolverines opened the tournament on Friday by losing to Northern Idaho 5-1. Freshman pitcher Quinn Marsh went the distance for UTC, and pitched reasonably well, but he got little help from the Wolverine bats, as UTC got only four hits and one run. UTC took on Snow College in the second game, and jumped off to an early lead to win 8-6. The Wolverine led 7-0 after three innings, but Snow scored six times over the next three innings to cut the lead to 7-6. UTC scored an insurance run in the eighth to hold on for the victory. Mike Dalley was the starter and winner for the Wolverines, with Bill Robertson coming on in the seventh to get the save. In their final game, UTC took on Northern Idaho again, and dropped a 7-6 decision, with the tying run being thrown out at the plate on the last play of the game. UTC opened up an early 3-1 lead behind the pitching of Mark Gorringe and homes runs by Ron Anderson and Brent Moyes. After trailing 4-3, UTC again took the lead in the fifth when a bases loaded double by Jeff Nelson brought home three runs for a 6-4 lead. But the Wolverines gave the lead away in the sixth when they allowed three unearned runs on fielding miscues. Gorringe held Northern Idaho scoreless over the last three frames, but UTC could not get the tying run across. In the bottom of the ninth, UTC mounted a threat when Anderson singled. With two out, Paul Cluff doubled. Anderson tried to score from first, but was thrown out at the plate to end the game and the season for the Wolverines. Head Coach Dave Nelson was disappointed with the loss: "We gave it away. Gorringe did a good job for us on the mound, but we gave up six unearned runs in the field. They wouldn't have been in the ball game if we had made them earn everything they got. It's tough to lose that way." The 1-2 record in the Region Tournament left the Wolverines with an overall record of 18-19 for the season. Though it was not one of the better campaigns, the UTC was able to garner another ICAC championship on the year, the third consecutive. Coach Nelson now has seven ICAC championships to his credit during his eleven years at UTC.
