Women knock out Beavers in second round By TAMARA SWENSON Of the Emerald Playing the same team four times in a season has its advan tages and disadvantages, especially when the only game that really counts is the one at the end of the season Oregon's women's basketball team has met and defeated Oregon State University twice this season, including Friday’s 73-64 decision The teams are scheduled for one more league game and, unlesss something unforseen happens, the two teams should meet in the Region 9 championship — the game which decides who goes to nationals. "We can't afford to take any game against them (OSU) light ly,” said Oregon coach Elwin Heiny. “I’d rather we didn’t meet them at all. This team (Oregon) is a good team and it takes all we can to hold them.” During his four-year tenure at the University, Heiny’s teams hold a commanding 10-1 series lead over OSU But Oregon’s one loss to the Beavers two years ago was the regional championship contest, which sent OSU to nationals and the Ducks home to lick their wounds. Only two Ducks were around for that game — senior guard Debbie Adams and junior for ward Bev Smith — but everyone else knows about Civil War rivalry. "Inside, I never want to lose to OSU," said Smith, who scored 26 points and nabbed 12 rebounds in Friday’s victory over the Beavers. "But the odds against winning every game for four years are high enough without meeting them as often as we do.” Every game between the two universities is a battle, said OSU's 6-5 center Carol Menken outside a quiet Beaver locker room Friday. "We've really got nothing to lose when we play them. So we can play all out.” But the Beavers were unable to play "all out” against the Ducks Friday. The two teams traded the lead until Smith, with seven minutes left in the half, gave the Ducks a three-point lead. Forward MaryAnn Stoican put Oregon ahead for good with two baskets to give the Ducks a five-point lead, 22-17. From that point on, the game belonged to Oregon, as the Ducks put in 14 points to OSU's four to take a 36-21 halftime lead. Menken, who leads the nation in scoring with an average of 30.1 points a game, was held to seven points in the first half. Menken spent most of the game jockeying for position against Alison Lang, Oregon’s 6-3 center “Alison L ng worked harder than anyon I’ve ever seen,” said 5-3 gut d Allison Towriss, who nabbed jeveral key steals for Oregon. "It might have taken a lot for (Lang's) offensive game, but what she had to do was shut out Menken." During the second half, Oregon opened its lead to 25 points with three minutes left. Ahead 73-49, Oregon's bench came in to play ‘'t the game. The Beavers dia hat they could against the subs, ..coring 15 points to close within nine points. ’’Without Menken, OSU doesn’t score,” said Towriss as she pulled tape from her ankles after the game. "But it took teamwork to win." Holmes, Nolan pace gymnasts Oregon's Holly Holmes and Maureen Nolan finished one two in the all-around as the Ducks won every event to sweep a four-way gymnastics meet Saturday The Ducks scored a season high 130.15 points to outdis tance San Francisco State (109 4), Cal State-Hayward (106.9) and the University of Alberta (99.3). Holmes won the beam and uneven bars events to help compile a 33.40 all-around score Jeanette Stewart won the floor exercise and Sara Gustaf son the vault. Oregon’s dual meet record is now 5-0.
