Cook both added their two cents worth as to why their de
fense is so much tougher than it was last year.
"The biggest difference is speed," Collins said, "Overall
we are a lot quicker and I think we have a much better atti
tude than we had last year."
Cook, who was one of the main cogs in the defensive line
that stopped the Ducks' running attack, said. "We really en
joy stuffing the run because that forties them to threw the ball
and that allows us to be bettor prepared for their passing at
tack.”
The Husky defense did give up 302 passing yards to Mus
grave but picked off two passes to go with the fumble recov
ery. and ended up scoring 14 points off the three Duck turn
overs.
The only other problem the Huskies had was how to de
fend on kickoffs. The Ducks ran back seven kickoffs for 158
yards, including Burwell's 42-yarder to open the third period.
Washington’s kicking game is something that is bound to
cause some restless nights for James.
"It’s a real adventure when we go out there." James said.
“I'm not sure it's ever going to get any better until our kickers
get the ball down where they're capable of getting it."

“I was really happy with the
way we played," Oregon Coach

offense really came around and
everyone did their job. Molly
(McGrath) did a great job of
moving the liall around to all of
our hitters so Washington
couldn't key on any one player
Mindee (Adams). Dawnn
(Charroin) and lulie (Jeffery)
had great nights hitting and
were near perfect
"We’ve never hit this well
against a quality opponent,"
Gregory said. "We played some
inspired defense and had some
fan support from Duck fans

that really h«»lp«;cl us."
The tables turned fur the
Ducks in Pullman, though, as
the Cougars dominated in
games one and three to easily
win the match.
Washington State led by as
many as 10 points in the first
game (14-4). and cruised with a
297 hitting percentage for the

their defense in the second
game only to come up short,
and then the Cougars took con
trol in the last game to win the
match.
“Wo played poorly and
looked real tired, but I also
thought Washington State
played well.” Gregory said.
"We had a lough time blocking
(the Cougars led 10-t> in that
category) and we didn't play
well defensively
"There were a number of ha
sii breakdowns in fundamen
tals and Washington State took
advantage of them," he said
“We need to find some consis
tency in our play and we just
haven't played well on the sec
ond night like we have in pre
vious years
Adams had 13 kills to lead
the Din ks, and Charroin added
