Grapplers Crush California Teams OREGON'S Grant Henjyoji stands from the neutral position in his 123-pound match with Fresno State’s Steve Johansen Saturday. Johansen won the match. 4-2, but Oregon won the meet, 23-6. Jim Chaskin Photo By RANDE WII.MARTII Sports Editor The weekend's Oregon wrest ling results should give warning to California grappling teams. And that means Stanford and California's Bears — two squads the Ducks will meet this week in McArthur Court. Oregon handed two touring teams a pair of crushing defeats —Cal Holy. 21 8 Friday, and Fres no State, 23-8 Saturday, both in Mac Court—and laid claim to su-1 premacy over the only two Cali fornia squads it has met this year. The Ducks raised their dual meet record to 7-3-1 and have high hopes of upping the results this coining week against more teams from the south. “Cal Poly was a much stronger team than Fresno State.” said Webfoot coach Art Keith Sun day. “And we wrestled better against Cal Poly than we did against Fresno State. All the kids just did a tremendous job.” Five Win Two Five Oregon wrestlers won bouts on both nights, and one was Emerald SPORTS Freshmen Win Hoop Pair By DAVE BARONTI Sports Writer The play was different, but the results were the same. Oregon’s freshman basketball team won both games of a ‘ tough" weekend road trip—beat ing the Oregon Medical and Den tal School, 64-61 in Portland Fri day night and winning. 78-65. over the Linfield College JVs in Mc Minnville Saturday. Coach Jerry Anderson was not particularly pleased with his team's play the first game. The Ducklings committed nu merous ball-control errors and had to depend on a three-point play (of sorts) to eke out the victory. That play came with the score tied 61-61 and less than 30 sec onds remaining. Rick Abraham son went to the free^throw line on a one and one situation, made the first one, but bounced the ball off the rim on his second try. Ron Caderette was right there with the rebound, however, and stuffed the ball in the hoop for the two insurance points. Caderette Hits 17 Those two points gave Cader ette 17 for the game and earned him the praise of Anderson (he was the only one who got any). “In all departments, he’s really coming along,” noted the coach. Defensively, Ron was matched against probably the most out standing player on the floor— Steve Pauly, former standout guard from Oregon State — and allowed only 17 points, well be low Pauly's average, and the same number that Steve allowed Ron. Saturday evening, it was cen ter Glen Campbell’s turn to steal the show. The 6-5 prospect from Thurston hit for 27 points while collecting 13 rebounds—both game highs. Guard Rick Abrahamson, play ing before a hometown audience, (he went to school in McMinn ville) hit consistently from the outside and finished with 23. But it was the team’s play as a whole that made Anderson opti mistic. Anderson “Happy” Gone were ball-control errors and the resulting turnovers of the previous night. The Duck lings were meeting a team that specialized in the fast break, and beat them at their own game. “Linfield had beaten Oregon State’s freshmen twice this sea son on that break, and Oregon State beat us. So we’re pretty happy.” The Ducklings caught the Wild cats flatfooted several times with their own version of the break, and drove in for easy layups. And the game was not even close. The last tie was with five minutes left in the first half when the score was 19-19. Oregon took charge from there, led 34-24 at the intermission break, and never had less than a nine-point lead at any point therein. The Ducklings, however, have not seen the last of Linfield. They meet the Wildcats again Friday evening in Mac Court.

The two—Spence Kissler and Wayne Noecker—between them took first places in all but one event (side horse) and led their team to a 62-39 walloping of Thurston high school. Kissler won the still rings and long horse competition, while Wayne was taking first in the floor exercise, high bar, parallel bars and all-around. “I’m particularly happy with Kissler,” grinned Sampson. ‘'That’s the first time he’s ever competed on the long horse.” Three second place finishes— in the floor exercise, parallel bars and still rings—by Dennis Schol daise helped the frosh cause fur ther.

Ruiz’ loss was the second in eight starts for the Mus tang grapper Defending PAC champion Doug Robertson also nabbed a couple of wins. "Robertson looked the best he’s looked this season.” Keith said after the 137 pounder’s 6 0 win over Cal Poly’s Tom Miles. "He’s moving much more now and has gained more style.” Curt Scott increased his sea son’s record to 10-2 with a pair of decisions. One victory, a 23 8 win over Cal Poly’s Lennis Cow ell, saw Scott manage four take downs, two near falls and a pre dicament. "Curt just chewed him up,” was Keith’s obvious remark. "And that guy was third in the NCAA I College division last year." Mitchell Scores Win Another defending coast cham pion. Bob Mitchell at 160 pounds, gained two more victories. He defeated Cal Poly’s John Miller, j J 2. scoring five points in the sec- > and round on a reversal near fall j combination, and Fresno State's Mike Gallego, 0 2 1 he loss was Gallego's first this season in nine bouts.

He really exploded a few times | and handled Gallego pretty well ” Bruce Glenn added to his un beaten string with a decision and a fall and is now 11-0. He de- j cisioned Terry Wigglesworth of Cal Poly—who had a 7-1 record going into the match—15-3, and pinned Steve Knsiak of Fresno State at 2:13. Although 123 pound Cl r a n t Henjyoji split in the two meets, his 10 5 win over the Mustang's Mike Itemer wns an important one.

"That was the best he's wrestled this season He exploded. worked hard and kept the pressure on He made points on hustle ” The win put Oregon into a 30 lead and "set the pace" for the remaining Webfoot wins. Kent Studehaker, 177 • pound Duck wrestler, lacked threeand u half seconds of winning a pair of bouts. Instead, he came away with a draw and a decision win in his first varsity competition of the year, having sat out the llrst part of the season with a broken hand behind 4 2 Friday in a match with Poly’s Dean HUger, Stude haker hit a single lug takedown at the buzzer and camt away with a 4 4 draw. He needed only a little less than four seconds of riding time to gain the extra rid irg time point f >: the win "Studehaker did an excellent job," commented Keith after the draw. "He's out of shape but that spark's there" And Keith was pleased with the newcom er's 63 win over Fric Christenson of Fresno State Saturday.
