last year's losing season was a
fluke

and
Knuugh has been said alxml
last year This is a new year, a
new season, and the I)ut ks are
playing like a new team
Oregon jumped out to its
fastest start ever with nine

10 foes
The Dm ks have merged hat k
on to the winning trail, howev

lost five opponents int lulling

over nationally ranked Califor

"What a lot ol people don't
rememlier is last year in the
I’at HI we were very competi
live " Gregory said "We lost a
lot ol five game matt lies w ith a
very young team
The Dtitks were young, Ins
mg only three senior
Iflteiwinners and one starter to
begin the Hltt’l season This
year's rosier consists of five sc
mors, one pmior. five sopho

"I think tills year the lug till
ferent e is that we re not milk
mg as many loutish mistakes.'
Gregory said 'The leadership
on the team is outstanding
The players seem to lie hay
ing a lot more fun this year as
well.
"They sure had fun on T ri
day and Saturday night (at ( al
and Stanford)." Gregory said
I hey work haul ill piat lit e and
I think then attitudes are that
they really want to he pushed
and when they don't gel
pushed they ale disappointed
Deleatmg the nationally
ranked t onlereiit e rivals Cal

the lust to admit that the I'M)

"Kvervbodv s doing a great
job she said I mean we
couldn't win unless there were
six people on the 1 ourt and the
rest of the team cheering for
us. ”
"I think in the past we proha
bly had relied on one dominant
hitter, or maybe two dominant
hitters." Gregory said "This

evenU I think that's one ol our
strengths
One player that has been con

"I got a chance to set a lot in
