Ailing matmen take road wins By Paul Darner 0)th» Emwrttd Oregon wrestling fortunes, which have been both good and bad of late, took a turn for the better over the weekend as the Ducks traveled up and down 1-5 for a pair of dual meet road wins Friday night the Ducks found a team that was hurting worse than they were, and rebounded from Thursday s disappointing home loss to Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo to crush Portland State 44-6 at the PSU gym Saturday the Ducks moved south and used a Dan Cook decision in the evening's final match to claim a 18-17 win over Southern Oregon The pair of wins moved the Duck matmen to 14-3 in dual meet action heading into the final dual meet of the season Friday at McArthur Court against Oregon State Cook's heavyweight decision over the Red Raiders' Rick Chandler may have clinched the win, but it was leadoff man Randy Ohta and teammate Lorenzo West who drew praise from Oregon coach Ron Finley "I thought we had two best performances of the season,” Finley said of Ohta and West's efforts in Ashland Ohta got the Ducks off on the right foot Saturday with a 9-5 decision over Sothern Oregon's Howard Fabrycki, who Finley described as a good 118-pounder “It was Ohta's best match to date,” Finley said "If anyone was a hero it was him " West wasn't as lucky as Ohta, dropping a 6-5 decision to SOSC's Brett Latstedt at 142. But Finley was pleased "I felt he wrestled one of his best matches of the year even though he tost,” the coach said The teams see-sawed In the early going, with SOSC earning decisions at 126,142, and 158, while Oregon got wins with Cliff Porter at 134 and Barry Boyles at 150 along with Ohta’s victory The Ducks finally got a leg up after a draw at 167 when Oregon's Paul Sheriff decisioned the Red Raiders' Rick Strawn 4-2 at 177 Friday's win was a cakewalk as the ailing Ducks took advantage of a PSU squad that belongs m intensive care Oregon won all 6ix matches on an abreviated slate which was shortened by four forfeits, three by the Vikings Gymnasts*down USF, bow to USC, Stanford San Francisco — The Oregon s women s gymnastics squad met up with some rough competition in the Bay Area in the form of the University of Southern California and Stanford The two California squads dominated action in a triangular meet Saturday at Palo Alto, with the Cardinal women coming out on top with 142 50, followed by USC at 136 95 The Ducks managed to place only two women in the top three places in any event in scoring 135 4 Sara Gustafson, with thirds in the floor exercist (8 9) and th§ vault (8 95), and Holly Holmes with a third on the bars (9 1) led the way for Oregon The night previous against the University of San Francisco, Gustafson scored a season best in the all-around to help lift the Ducks over the Dons Oregon scored 136 8 — their best effort of the road trip — to USF's 131 45 Gustafson's total of 35 30 was spurred by her victory on the balance beam (8 9) Maureen Nolan captured the bars with an 8 95 After suffering a possible broken finger in Saturday's meet, Gustafson sat out of Sunday's triangular meet at the University of California at Berkeley with USC Again the Trojans scored well — 141 00 — to down Oregon with 132 25 and Cal with 130 00.
