Ducks have some standouts, but lack depth By BOB WELCH Of the Emerald Somewhere out there on the vast Oregon campus, says Duck women s golf Coach Diane Bax ter, are some talented golfers. Unfortunately, only seven have turned out for Baxter s team If Baxter has a problem as spring approaches, it's a lack of numbers 'We re trying to build up our golf program here, she says. But we ve got to have more peo ple turn out I know there are good golfers out there. And I d like to encourage them to try out. To upgrade the program, Bax ter has already decided to add a fall golf schedule We re hoping to play m California next year dur ing the fall and then play in Oregon in the spring, said Baxter The big step this spring is ad ding a |unior varsity team, some thing the Ducks have never had "It's a great opportunity for a lot of girls, said Baxter Though Baxter hasn t gotten the numbers yet, she does have some talent Jeanme Nimmo, who was the Ducks' top Imkster at times last year, has graduated but Kathy Young and Mary Kleeb will return and a couple of freshman already look promising Young, about a seven hand icap. and Kleeb. about a 12, give Oregon solid experience Mary Wilson and Marilyn O Brien give the Ducks plenty of potential Wilson, a freshman from Med ford. was runner-up in the conso lation flight of the Stanford Invita tional Golf Tournament last fall and plays to about a five hand icap O'Brien also played in the tourney and Baxter says she could be a good one The Ducks will carry four on the varsity team and four on the junior varsity. The varsity will open its season on April 20 with a three-day match at Glendale Country Club in Bel levue, Wash, with Washington and the University of British Col umbia. The Ducks two home matches are May 21 (Oregorv State at Shadow Hills) and May 17-18 (the Daisy Duck Invitational, which might be played at the Eugene Country Club. Oregon State, of course, will be without star Mary Budke for the first time in four years. Another top notch Beaver, according to Bax ter, has transferred so the Beav ers appear to be weaker than past years. Washington, which loses two stars to graduation,could also be weaker, says Baxter.
