Men’s water polo takes two wins
Two Club Sports teams were
in action during the first w'eek
of school, each having good re
sults.
The men’s club water polo
team competed in a five-team
tournament in Canada and won
two of four games.
Oregon’s team beat Washing
ton 12-4 and the University of
Victoria 6-5 but lost to Simon
Fraser 4-2 and to the University
of British Columbia by a 16-11
count.
Coach Sean Broderick said
that his team had only two days
of practice before the tourna
ment while the Canadian
schools had been in school and
practicing for a month and a
half.
"All the players except for
three or four are new and all of
the guys have never played to
gether before," he said. "We
haven't meshed together yet,
and when we do, it will be a
big benefit for our next tourna
ment in two weeks."
Ducks ranked
in national polls
The Oregon football team
isn't the only Duck team in a
Top 20 or Top 25 poll this
week as two more teams are
ranked in NCAA polls and a
third is teetering on the border.
Both Oregon cross country
teams are in the rankings, with
the men checking in at No tt in
the men's Top 20 poll and the
women holding down the No
11 ranking in the women's Top

leyball team received votes in
both polls, being one of only

the Tachikara poll and not
make the Top 20. The Ducks
were also one of only seven
teams to receive votes in the
NCAA poll and not break into
the Top 20.

Broderick said he felt Oregon
played well in the tournament
and likes his team's overall tal
ent.
"I have a lot of talent to work
with." he said "We have a
good offense and a good de
fense. It will be a major advan
tage to get some practice in."
