Orange 'kist goodbye
by powerful Huskers

63-7 college football destruction of
Syracuse at Lincoln, Neb.
Nebraska, 5-0, extended the nation's
longest college winning streak to 15 and

Golfers stumble
to sixth place at
Nevada tourney
By Blair Thompson
Of the Emerald
Oregon's golf team finished
sixth in last week's prestigious
Wolfpack Classic as bad weather
washed away any Duck title
hopes.
The Classic, hosted by the
University of Nevada-Reno and
played at Edgewood-Tahoe Coun
try Club, featured some of the
Pac-10's best teams in USC,
Oregon, and eventual champion
UCLA.
The Bruins won the tournament
with a two-day score of 771,
followed by University of the
Pacific with 776 and Nevada-Reno
with 783. Oregon came in with a
799. Scores were tallied based on
five players.
For the Ducks, it was not the
tough field but the bad weather
that proved to be the difference.
Oregon was in command after
the first round of the tourney, but
then the rains came, forcing the
entire round to be replayed.
The replay turned a first-place
lead into a second-place deficit.
Still, led by Shell Joyner's 74 and
76s from John DeLong and Paul
Weinhold, Oregon's opening 386
left it in good position for a title
run in the final round.
Weather conditions then went
from better to worse, and along
with them the Duck fortunes.
Oregon ballooned to a second
round 413.
High winds wreaked havoc with
the Duck golf games. As Oregon
coach Jim Ferguson said,“The
winds made it impossible for us to
do well.''
The wind took away the high,
straight shots that are necessary
for Pacific Northwest golf courses.
As a result, not one Duck golfer
could break 80 in the second
round.
However, Oregon managed to
hang onto sixth, with Joyner com
ing in at 157 and DeLong and
Weinhold at 158 to round out
Oregon's top three.
Ferguson offered mixed reviews
for Oregon's first fall preview to
the regular season.
“We were in a position to win it,
but we didn't play well enough in
the wind," he said.
That should not happen often,
according to the 13-year coach. A
veteran team with a desire to work
hard on their games makes the
1983 Duck golf picture a bright
one.
“We have the potential to be the
best golf team I've ever had. The
talent is certainly there,''
Ferguson said with a smile.
