Huskies put bite on Ducks
Monson suffers worst loss as Oregon coach, 88-62

SEATTLE — By the time the first minute of
the game had transpired in Hec Edmundson
Pavilion, the Oregon men’s basketball team knew
that it was going to be one of those days.
The University of Washington controlled the
opening tip-off, and after the Huskies missed
their first shot attempt, Oregon s Anthony Taylor
proceeded to turn the ball over on a pass to
freshman guard Rick Osborn, who wasn’t look
ing, as the bounce pass dribbled past him out of
bounds.
In the end, the ball game dribbled past the
Ducks, as the Huskies rolled up a 26-point win,
88-62, Saturday afternoon.
Taylor’s pass was 30 seconds into the game,
but 30 seconds later, the Ducks only offensive
bright spot of the day — Greg Trapp began a show
— a one-man show. Trapp slammed home a lob
pass from Taylor, as the senior scored the first of
29-points in career-high performance. But Trapp
didn’t receive any support, as the Ducks suffered
their fourth Pacific-10 Conference loss, dropping
them to 1-4 in league and 8-10 overall.
“That was, obviously, a good old-fashionied
whipping,” said Oregon coach Don Monson on a
day when the 4-1 Huskies, 11-4 overall, looked
unstoppable. “Washington is a very good basket
ball team. I thought they were extremely good,
and they posed a lot of problems for us,” Monson
said.
“We couldn't get any breaks
early, and then it just
mushroomed on us. ”

“We couldn’t get any breaks early, and then
it just mushroomed on us.”
Early in the game was the only time the
Ducks got any breaks — they managed to grab an
11-8 lead after the first six minutes. Then UW’s
All-America candidate Detlef Schrempf, who led
the Huskies with 22 points, six assists and eight
rebounds, began conducting a clinic on the
Ducks’ defense.
Behind Schrempf’s 15 first half points,
Washington outscored Oregon 21-10 in the next
stretch to take a 33-21 advantage after 20 minutes
of play. Oregon’s 7-foot center Blair Rasmussen
had been effectively neutralized by a UW zone
defense. The Huskies went to the zone about four
minutes into the game because UW’s big
man, 7-foot sophomore Christian Welp, picked
up two fouls early.
With Washington’s zone sagging two or three
defenders on Rasmussen, the senior center
managed zero for five shooting and no points in
the first half. As a team, the Ducks shot a dismal
35.7 percent from the field (10 of 28) and
finishing the game shooting only 40.6 percent.
“They gave Blair a hard time because every
time he got the ball, they sagged in and put two
men on him,” said Trapp, who scored 15 straight
points for the Ducks from 6:18 of the first half to
16:06 of the second. “And they kind of shut him
down.”
“They were sagging off of me and the guards,
so I was trying to put some offensive points on the
board,” added Trapp, who shot 13 of 21 from the
field, three of three from the free-throw line and
pulled down nine rebounds in posting the Ducks’
best individual scoring performance for the
season.
In the second half, Oregon was never closer
than 11 points — the best the Ducks could do was
match UW point for point, even though the
Huskies scored seven straight points in one
stretch.
Taylor had the second highest point total for
Oregon with eight. Rasmussen finished with five
points and nine rebounds before fouling out with
8:45 left in the game.
Saturday in Seattle, the Huskies’ guns were
just too many for the Ducks to contain, as four
Washington players scored in double figures:
Schrempf with 22; Paul Fortier had 13; Clay
Damon and Shag Williams added 12 apiece.
When the Huskies couldn’t work inside, Damon
was hitting long-range bombs from the perimeter.
When the Ducks covered that, Washington’s front
line was having a field day inside.
“They were very obviously a better baketball
team than we were today,” said Monson. “And if
we could have played them as well after the first
ten minutes, then we would have been . . .said
Monson, his sentence cut short, forgetting Satur
day’s performance and thinking ahead to the UW
Oregon rematch scheduled for Feb. 14 in McAr
thur Court.

‘The thicks’ seven-foot Blair
Rasmussen is cast as King Kong
— the Huskies' Christian Welp
is in a seven-foot role as
Godzilla.”
Well, when the dust had
finally cleared on this Saturday
matinee, Godzilla appeared as
the lone towering figure in Hee
Edmundson Pavilion, and
Tokyo was still intact.
Washington's fire-breathing
Godzilla (Welp), along with
West German counterpart Detlef
Schrempf and forward Paul For
tier have been the Huskies’
bread and butter this season.
The trio has led UW to a 4-1
conference record, and most
recently, an 88-62 drubbing of
Oregon.
Oregon’s Rasmussen found
how tough the Huskies could be
after being held to five points
and ending the battle on the
bench after picking up his fifth
foul with 8:45 left in the game.
The Huskies’ only league loss
came at the hands of the Oregon
State Beavers, but the Huskies’
have demolished their last three
Pac-10 opponents by a total of
60 points, i
“I think we still have a lot of
work to do but the intensity was
there in the three games. It is a
good sign for us,” said Welp
after the whipping of the Ducks.
‘i think that we finally got it
together. Hopefully, we can
keep it like that,” added
Schrernpf, who leads the team
in scoring with 16.6 p* ts.
Oregon found out there
wasn’t much room left with
Godzilla and company controll
ing Tokyo like they did on
Saturday.
