Oregon guard Carol Drouet, the Ducks ’floor leader, eyes the Washington Husky defense as she
lofts a pass to one of her teammates. Drouet had three assists, four steals and 14 points in
Oregon’s 79-69 victory.
ninth straight and 12th in their
last 13 games.
The Huskies forced the Ducks
into some sloppy play, gather
ing 27 offensive rebounds (they
had 43 total to Oregon’s 34),
snatching 15 steals and forcing
23 turnovers.
Heiny blamed those stats on
poor decisions and the lack of
practice, which was nil this
week because of freezing
temperatures at Mac Court.
“We had a lot of mental lapses
tonight. Hail we practiced
more, we might have been
sharper." he said.
The Ducks countered their
mistakes by shooting a sizzling
til percent from the field. And
during a night in which center
Stefanie Kasperski was held to
just eight points. Oregon, led by
Gabi Neumann's 17 points, had
four players in double figures.
Oregon hit the Huskies so fast
they were reeling, jumping out
to an 11-2 lead in just four
minutes. Washington did pull
within three. 17-14. on Hilary
Recknor’s 12-footer before the
Ducks scored nine straight to
regain control. 2(i-14.
Just over four minutes later,
Oregon capitalized on two
steals by Drouet, resulting in
her own lay-in and another by
Lauri Ouidurholm. to pad the
Duck lead to 16.
The Huskies started a brief
comeback after the intermis
sion. holding the Ducks
scoreless for the first 3:42 before
Drouet’s lay-up. Meanwhile,
they ticked off seven straight
points to cut the margin to nine.
Freshman Jacquie Semeniuk
came in to ignite tin; Ducks fast
break a little. Her three straight
assists, resulting in lay-ins by
Sheila Sattiewhite and Kris
Glidden and a jumper by
Drouet, pushed the lead back up
to 15.
With score 71-58 at the 3:18
mark, the Huskies rattled off six
unanswered points behind Lisa
Oriard's four throws to crawl
within seven. 71 -l»-4. with just
2:04 left on the clock.
Washington had outscored
Oregon 23-8 the final six
minutes to pull out the last
meeting between these two
teams, so a Husky comeback
was not out of the question.
Hut the Ducks have been a dif
ferent team since that heart
breaker. and with Neumann’s
five points the final 1:11 made it
academic.
Drouet. the 5-foot-4 point
guard with no good knees to her
name, seemed to Ik; everywhere
in this game, whether it was
directing traffic, getting the key
steal or notching two of her 14
points. ’’She played really
under control and made good
decisions, which is what you
want out of a point guard,"
Heiny praised.
And although Kasperski had
a frustrating night in the scoring
column, Heiny thought her
6-foot-7 frame was felt.and her
seven blocked shots reflected
that. "Her presence on defense
plays a big role for us." he said
of the center who blocked seven
shots.
"You don't see many shots
inside when she's in there."
Heiny added.
The Ducks now look ahead to
Washington State University
Saturday night for their last Mac
Court appearance of the season,
unless they are selected to host
an NCAA tournament game.
Although Oregon plowed the
Cougars. 101-55, up in Pullman
last month. Heiny expects to see
a different team this time
around.
"Washington State will be a
lot tougher than when we were
up there." be said.
