Egolfs finish, coupled with an other second place in the 100-yard backstroke, helped the SAEs claim the team title. McHugh fops IM swimmers SAEs go wet, win title Riley McHugh, a letterman on the Oregon ski team, showed prowess in another sport Tuesday night by winning two individual events and lead ing Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity to the 1970 intramural swimming championship. McHugh took the 50-yard freestyle in 24.05 sec onds and the 100-yard free in 56.02 seconds as the SAE’s racked up 50 points to edge Alpha Tau Omega, which finished with 46. Chi Psi scored 30 points to place third. The Byes, an independent team, scored 28 points for fourth by winning both relays, and two dormitory squads—Hale Kane and Boynton—finished in a fifth place tie with 14 tallies apiece. ATO had a pair of first place winners in Pat Hagerty, 1:05.2 in the 100-yard butterfly, and Charles Young, 1:06.1 in the 100-yard backstroke. Other champions were Mike McDermott, Boyton, 2:17.04 in the 200-yard free; Wayco Kopra, Doug lass Highs, 1:04.5 in the 100-yard individual med ley; and Jim Stoneman, Chi Psi, 1:11.0 in the 100 yard breaststroke. The Byes won the 200-yard medley relay in 1:55.5 and the 200-yard free relay in 1:40.07. Absence of team thoughts hurt Webfoot baseball squad Dy JUni^ Of the Emerald Oregon Baseball Coach Jack Roche was reminiscing on the past season. “If we could have played all year like we did in the last two games,” mused Roche, “we would have been all right. “But I got the feeling we weren’t playing as a team all through the year until then. We had a lot of players of equal ability, and some of the kids who weren’t playing felt they should have been. We had too big a squad, and it caused individual rather than team thoughts. We just couldn’t play everyone. “I can understand it, but I don’t condone it.” The Ducks finished with a 16 14 record—so-so in most annals— but for Oregon it was one of the poorest seasons on record. Only one other time since 1951 have the Ducks finished with a won lost percentage (.533) that low. And not since 1932 has the school fielded a losing team. The team placed third in the Pac-8 Northern Division with a 5-9 mark. But the Ducks faced a lot of frustrations—primarily surround ing the illness and death of Head Coach Don Kirsch, one of the nation’s most greatly-admired and highly-respected baseball coaches. Kirsch underwent treatment for Parkinson’s disease at the Stan ford Veteran’s Hospital from early April until his May 7 death. “Don’s being at Stanford had a definite effect on the club’s per formance,” said Roche. “They had a great concern for him.” Roche cited other areas where the team could have seen some improvement. “We had trouble hitting good pitching,” Roche noted, “but we also had trouble hitting poor pitching real good.” "And the rain bothered us. It kept our pitchers from being in a rotation or planned assignment situation.” Rain forced postpone ment or cancellation of 13 sched uled or rescheduled Oregon games. With the untimely loss of Kirsch and the graduation of nine lettermen, six of them regulars, the Duck diamond squad would appear to be in for rough times next year. But Koche doesn t see it that way. “True, we lose quite a few,” he admitted. “But the club can be pretty much set with return ees. The guys can play better if they know where they’re playing. “This year we were playing guys down to the JVs, and that’s wrong. We should reward a guy to come up to the varsity. We’ll have a definite squad next year, and we can start out with it that way.” Graduation losses this year in clude four everyday starters — centerfielder Phil Bushman, sec ond baseman Roger Schiewe, shortstop Jim Van Wyck and third baseman Colby Howe. Catch er John Dye saw more action than any other backstop, and Fred Cardwell won six games as the staff’s top pitcher. Departing reserves are first baseman Bob Ossey, outfielder Dave John son and first baseman - mana ger Ron Molony.
