Oregon faces Willamette today
with good road swing under belt
Oregon’s baseball team,
fresh off a good road trip to
California, will travel to Salem to
battle Willamette this afternoon.
The Ducks had a respectable
8-6 record on the trip, bringing
their overall record to 9-8.
Glenn Baggerly, Ron Sloy and
Tom Dodd are the top Oregon hit
ters at this stage of the season.
Freshman Dean Kegler is the top
pitcher thus far with a 3-0 record.
The Ducks finished their trip
with a split of two games. In the
first game, Oregon fell behind
early and couldn't come back in
an 8-3 loss to St. Mary’s. In the
second game, the Ducks bashed
18 hits on the way to a 12-9 win
over Pacific.
Against St. Mary’s, three Duck
pitchers gave up eleven hits.
However, only five of the eight
runs were earned as the Ducks
committed four errors. The Gaels
improved their record to 19-12
with the win. Glenn Fisher’s re
cord fell to 1-3 for Oregon.
Oregon had better luck in the
second game, played a few hours
later in Stockton, sixty miles from
the site of the first game.
Women’s athletic teams
land five top recruits
Oregons womens basketball,
softball, field hockey and track
teams were ail strengthened over

Ducknetters win doubles
to beat Washington State
Oregon started its women’s
tennis season in fine fashion
Wednesday, beating Washington
State 5-4 for the first Ducks win
over the Cougars in two years.
Helen Vozenilek and Patti
Layton, Oregon's number one and
two in singles, won both their
matches, but it was the final dou
bles match that clinched the
match for the Ducks.
Vozenilek was teamed with
Tina Mickelson in the number two
doubles, and provided the winning
margin for Oregon. Down 2-5 to
their opponents, the Oregon pair
rallied in that second set to win 7-5
after winning the first set, 6-4.
Other Duck winners were Deb
bie Borchers in the number four
singles, and Oregon’s top doubles
team of Borchers and Layton in
the number one pairs. The
Borchers-Layton team won the
NCWSA doubles title in 1976, but
Layton did not compete in 1977.
Oregon next faces Willamette
on Friday, a team that Oregon
handled rather easily last season,
winning 9-0. The match will be
held on the Salem campus at
3:30.
