Oregon gets a big jolt but still wins 15-13 By MIKE GRADY Of the Emerald You don’t give up nine runs in one inning and expect to win a baseball game, but that’s exactly what happened to Oregon in their game Wednesday afternoon against Willamette University. Leading 12-2 going into the sixth inning, the Ducks appeared to have everything under control. The sun shone down on basking fans and Willamette pitchers were either throwing balls in the dirt or right down the middle where Oregon bats were eagerly waiting to do their work. Even Oregon head coach Mel Krause was in high spirits, moving along the bench, joking and smil ing with his players. But suddenly the wind picked up, as did Willamette. Just when everybody thought the game was as good as over and that it was time to go home and put on some warmer dothers, the visiting Wild cats put together nine runs on six hits to make it a one-run game. The Ducks did manage to keep their composure, however, scor ing three runs in the bottom of the OCE trips Duck softball MONMOUTH — Oregon Col lege of Education scored a run in the bottom of the seventh inning to ruin Oregon’s comeback bid and win at women’s softball 10-9. The Ducks scored five times in the top of the final inning to knot the score at 9-9, but OCE won the game when Trade Ranf singled sharply to left field scoring Linda Kilgore. Hanna Munson led the Oregon hitters, cracking two triples in four times at bat. The loss dropped Oregon's season record to 0-7. Oregon 010 021 S — 9 5 5 OCE 004 041 1 — 10 5 3 Knox.

But it had still been a scare. "The spectators ought to be happy about it,” said Krause with a mocking smile after it was all over. “They’re always complaining that there’s not enough offense.” “Actually it was good to get the reserves in and give them a chance to play under a pressure situation,” said Krause, returning to a more serious mood. “There were times that we could have ended that big inning but we couldn’t make the play.” “One of our problems all year has been breaking down in one big inning during a game,” he said. The Oregon victory was its sec ond non-league win in two days. A two-run homer by Tom Dodd in the 10th inning of Tuesday’s game against Portland State had given them the first. The Ducks now travel to Pull man for a three-game Northern Division series against Washing ton State. The Cougars, last year's Northern Division champs, currently own a 2-1 win-loss record while the Ducks are in first at 3-0.

The Ducks, who have been making a semi-permanent home in Texas for the better part of this month, stand behind the other top schools in the nation in the 26-team, 72 hole affair at the Atascocita Country Club in Hous ton. Jeff Sanders, Oregon’s top linksman, had what for him amounts to a terrible day, as the junior All-American from 1976 shot an appalling nine-over par 81. “They were tight today,’’ said the Ducks’ Coach, Jim Ferguson. “But they have the patience to shoot under par.” Oklahoma State leads after the first round with a team total of 283, followed by Brigham Young with a 284 total. Oregon has a team score of 292, nine shots off the Cowboys’ lead. Scott Tuttle leads Oregon with a two-under par 70, which ties him with two other golfers for fifth place. Brent Murray had a 72, Doug Hixson a 74, and Jon Heselwood a 76 for the Ducks. Oregon lost a match to Houston last week, also in Texas. Team Korn — Oklahoma Stale 263. Brigham Young 2B4. Georgia 288.
