Sports *-— Women netters win pair; men finish 1-2 in Seattle By Cliff Pfenning Of llw Kmerald Heading north to Seattle for the weekend, the University of Oregon men's and women’s tennis teams both experienced contrasting results as the women won a pair of matches and the men won one and lost two. The women's team easily swept Seattle University 9-0 on Friday and then won a tough match against Puget Sound, 6-3, the following day. A third match against Seattle Pacific was cancelled. Over on the mens side, the weekend results were hut a game away from being judged a success. The Ducks lost convin cingly to Washington (7-2) on Friday, dropped a heartbreaker to Idaho State University (5-4) and then skunked Seattle Pacific (9-0). One of the brighter spots of the weekend were the three singles victories posted by Oregon’s top player Pat Jenn ings, who won in straight sets on each occasion. The Duck women got off to a good start on Friday against Seattle — a late replacement for scheduled Gonzaga. The singles matches were all decided in relatively easy fashion, as the Ducks walked awey with an abundance of two-set victories. The doubles combinations per formed equally as well, and tin? sweep was complete. “Our girls all played really well this weekend.” women's head coach Sue Jacobsen said. "Mentally we were really tough.” In the match with Puget Sound things weren’t quite so easy, as Oregon’s top two singles players, Kelly Stuart and Cindy Grail, went down early. However, the remainder of the singles matches all went the Ducks' way, as Kumi Nagamoto. Liz O'Donnell. Helen Zech and Amber Goheen all forged victories. Zech and Goheen, who both won three-set singles matches, then teamed up at the second doubles position for a three-set victory to preserve the team win. Nagamoto and Tracy Hin chcliffe added the final match victory. "Beating Puget Sound was one of our goals for this year.” she said. “We’re really happy about this victory. ”1 was a little disappointed last weekend on our trip to Pullman (where the Ducks lost to Washington. Wasington State, and Idaho State),” Jacobsen said. "I thought we should have been where we are this week — last week.” lacobsen pointed to the up coming matches against Washington and WSU this weekend in Eugene as coming at a good time. “If we can keep this (level of play) up, then 1 think we’ll compete well against the Washington schools." After beating both l,infield and Lewis and Clark last week, the men’s team headed north look ing to extend their streak. After the expected 7-2 loss to the Huskies, the Idaho State match went down to the wire. The outcome was decided close to 1 a.m. on Saturday mor ning when the number-two doubles team ol Sean Campbell and Peter Bartlett lost in a third set tie breaker 5-7, ti-2, 7-<i (10-8). Later Saturday night, Oregon rebounded over tin; Falcons to end the weekend 1-2. Pepsi Continued from Page 7 State’s Simon Shirley scaled 14-1 3/4. Transfer Dave Anderton (1:52.71) and teammate David Hailey (1:53.55) led Oregon to a two-man sweep in the 800 meter race. The format of the meet limited the number of en tries per event to two for each team, and points were awarded for each finished race or legal mark under international scor ing rules. The Ducks also finished two three in the 1500, with Harold Kuphaldt (3:48.05) and Mark Dunbar (3:49.12) providing the scoring. There will be little time to rest on laurels for the Webfoots.
