Colton at Clackamas ~ Freshman Year



  • The NWAC (NorthWest Athletic Conference) oversees thirty-six (36) community colleges located in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. They have a website full of information on the basketball season; schedule, standings, stats, regions, results... 
  • The NWAC Sports Network provides streaming for the games, so check that out for live action!
  • Colton decided to attend Clackamas Community College. Here's the game schedule, and there are additional pages with stats, box scores, play by play, etc ...
  • To follow the family social media, there will posts on Facebook and Instagram, and Twitter ... there is a YouTube playlist/highlights for these college games and I'll update with links here as well. 




There were some early scrimmages. Short "games" ... 20min matchups. Then pre-season games from around the region, then the season, home and away against region teams. 


As 2024 ends ... out of all the players in all the schools in the NWAC, Colton is the assist leader. Keeping control of the ball until he finds the open man. The magic touch as he passes and they make the shot. He set the school record for assists at West Jordan and is continuing in college play ...

February 22, 2025 ... Clackamas vs Lane


... as the season ended, they said goodbye to the three seniors (Gray is going on to play at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology) and had some Spring training. Colton returned home at the end of June (after pulling 4.0 GPA the last two trimesters). 

In July, the team had a Zoom call with the sad news that Coach Clif Wegner had passed away. He'd had some health struggles during the Spring, surgeries and hospitalizations, but it was still unexpected.
