Summers looks at a mixed year
Season ends
with spring
championships
By STEVE JETT

While thumbing through the
season archives of the Oregon
men’s tennis team, coach Buzz
Summers made his appraisal.
“The season was disappoint
ing, but also encouraging be
cause our young players were put
into competitive college tennis
matches that will help them gain
experience,” explained Summers
from his office Tuesday.
The season wound down to an
end for the Ducks at the Northern
Division Championships in Pull
man, Wash., where they placed
third behind champion Washing
ton and runner-up Washington
State. Having faced hindrances all
season long, Summers was more
than content.
“I was really pleased with the
way our players performed, it was
just that all the teams had some
excellent players,” said Sum
mers. In addition, Washington
State upended Oregon for the first
time in eleven years.
In posting an 8-10 season, the
first losing record for Oregon in
four seasons, Summers had to
swaHow the loss of key players,
adapt to roster changes, and work
with a youthful lineup consisting of
two sophomores and three fresh
men.
The latter has become Sum
mers’ foundation for next season.
“We will have a whole team
back next season, and we will
have gained a great deal of ex
perience. With the thirty five
matches (including practice
matches) we played this season,
we improved tremendously.”
Jim Wilson, Oregon’s only
senior, managed five wins at the
number one spot. Among the un
derclassmen, Tom Greider and
Russ Childers, both sophomores,
tended to shine. Greider had eight
wins through his singles play,
while Childers contributed five
triumphs. When united, the two
formed the Ducks top doubles
team.
In addition, freshman Eric Lehto
held the top singles record with
11 -8 overall, and is described by
Summers as “our most valuable
player record-wise. He will defi
nitely be pushing for the number
one spot next season." Tom
Goldman produced nine singles
victories.
However, souring this season
was the loss of three players.
Derek Wilson departed prior to the
season opener, number one man
Conrad Lopez quit at mid season,
and was followed by the loss of
sophomore Steve Bolstad. Speak
ing in terms of wins and losses,
the trio would have made a differ
ence.

One of the Ducks early-season losses was their number one player,
Conrad Lopez, whose departure made it a lot tougher for Oregon's
tennis team. The team concludes the season this weekend with the
Oregon Spring Championships.
“If we had had our strongest
team all the way through the sea
son, we would have won four or
five more matches,” continued
Summers.
Lopez’s departure caused a
shift in the roster, working to the
Duck’s disadvantage.
“When you lose your number
one man, it is very difficult since
everyone has to move up one
spot, and you do not then have
your strengths at each position. A
9-0 win could easily turn into a 9-0
loss,” said Summers.
Summers then turned the topic
of conversation to the Oregon
tennis championships that start
here on Friday. Heading the list of
entrants will be Roger McKee,
number three ranked in Northwest
for men. The tourney will be di
vided in Open, A, B, and C
categories.
“The open draw will be out
standing,” said Summers, who
has four players of his own team,
Wilson, Greider, Childers, and
Lehto in the draw.
