Cagers split Washington games By JODY MURRAY Of the Emerald In a performance that would seem habitual if it wasn't so painful, Oregon’s men’s bas ketball team let the University of Washington slip away Saturday after blowing out Washington State University Friday The Ducks denied the Cougars at McArthur Court with a 30-5 streak in the second half for a 82-67 win. But against the Huskies, Oregon squandered a nine point lead in the second half, fell behind on a Dan Caldwell tipin with 48 seconds left and failed to score down the stretch for a 70-68 loss.

Burroughs Equal Opportunity Employer M, F trouble in the close ones. Both the UCLA and the last Stanford game were lost in the last few seconds. “It’s a tough way to lose,” Oregon coach Jim Haney said of the Washington contest. "It was a great college game. But I’m getting a little tired of being the one who loses.” This particular setback put Oregon at 11-12 overall and in eighth place in the Pacific-10 Conference with a 4-10 record. The Ducks will now be hard pressed to finish with a winning record, with remaining games against UCLA and USC in Los Angeles and the Arizona schools at Mac Court. Oregon led the Huskies 48-39 with 15:40 to play, but Bob Fronk and Andra Griffin com bined for 20 points from that point to put Washington back in the game. It was the beginning of the end for the Ducks when Fred Cofield missed a layin with 1:15 left. Mike Clark fouled the Hus kies’ Kenny Lyles on the rebound and Lyle made the first of the one-and-one to tie the game at 68 Lyle missed the second shot, but teammate Don Vaughn grabbed the rebound. The clock went under a minute as Griffin missed a driving layin and Cald well made his game-winning tipin. Oregon’s final opportunities to tie the game came on a 18-foot attempt by Felton Sealey at the top of the key and a last second 25-foot prayer by Cofield. “I thought I had it," Sealey said, "but it was a brick. I tried to bank it in, but it just didn’t go.” Clark led the Ducks with 18 points and 15 rebounds. The only other Duck in double figures was Sealey with 11. Griffin’s 25 points led the win ners and Fronk added 20. There were happier times for Oregon Friday as they beat the Cougars for the second time this season — the first time since 1975 that they’ve accomplished that feat The Ducks shot .556 in the second half to overcome a 35-34 halftime deficit. Sealey led Oregon’s balanced scoring attack with 14 points. John Greig had 12 points, while Ray Whiting and Clark had 10 each. "I'm very pleased," Haney said after the Cougar game, "but we don’t have much time to rejoice . . because there’s a game with Washington tomorrow.” Haney should have rejoiced while he had the chance. Huskies sweep Nor-Pac Steve Dougherty won three events to lead the University of Washington to an easy victory in the Nor-Pac swimming cham Batiste named athlete of meet Oregon’s Melanie Batiste was named female athlete of the meet in the Human Race Indoor Track and Field Meet at the Kibbie Dome in Moscow, Idaho Saturday.

Oregon’s Lexie Miller won the 55 hurdles in 8.0 and 300 hur dles in 43.5, breaking her own Kibbie Dome record of 43.8. pionships last weekend in Leighton Pool. Oregon, led by George Koch's victory in the 200-yard breaststroke, finished fourth with 523 points behind the Hus kies (1,164), University of Puget Sound (636) and Simon Fraser University (562). Koch’s win was the only event victory for Oregon in the three day meet. His 2:08.164 time outdistanced Washington’s Chris Erickson (2:09.843).
