Volleyball squad returns from Arizona without a victory
By Robert Weber
Emerald Sports Reporter
Poor passing by Oregon and
solid serving by Arizona added
up to a four-game victory for
the Wildcats Friday night as
the Ducks returned from their
trip to the valley of the sun
without a victory.
The Ducks came out strong,
winning the opening game
15*11. but the momentum shift
od and Arizona charged from
behind to take the next three
games 15-11. 15-4. 15-10.
Any hopes the Ducks had of
qualifying for post-season play
were ruined by Thursday
night's loss to Arizona State,
but Oregon didn't roll over and
die against Arizona.
"We played with lots of en
thusiasm and I think we played
a good match," Oregon Coach
Gerry Gregory said, "one of the
belter ones we've had in Ihe
Iasi couple of weeks.
"The difference in the match
was that our passing broke
down and Arizona serves pretty
well, so we had trouble getting
the ball to Molly (McGrath) on
a consistent basis."
Mindee Adams led the Duck
attack with 15 kills and Dawnn
Charroin had 11. while playing
on a sore ankle, to lead the
Duck attack.
A crowd of 45.901, the third-largest crowd in Oregon history, turned out in cold and rainy
weather to cheer the Ducks on to a come from behind win.
"Mindee Adams was real
steady all-around for us." Greg
ory said, "and Dawnn Charroin
was real solid, leading us in
digs and defense."
For the match, the Ducks
outblocked the Wildcats 12-10
and held Arizona to a .202 hit
ting percentage, but they could
only manage a .097 hitting per
centage themselves.
Terry I Buchner led the Wild
cals with 20 kills as Arizona
moved its Pacific-10 Confer
ence record to 7-8 and 16-10
overall.
The Ducks, who dropped to
14-11 overall and 5-9 in confer
ence. are home next weekend
to face Washington .State on
Friday and Washington on Sat
urday in their final regular-sea
son matches at McArthur
Court.

Musgrave dumped the twill to
tailhac k Sean Hurwell for a 28
\ard gain on a second-and-10
play from the UCLA 45-yard
line.
Then from the 16-yard line,
Musgrave dropped bark, faked
a pass to Burwell. and threw a
perfect strike to tight end Vince
Kerry for a touchdown.
"It's kind of nice to know
that his last pass in Autzen was
a touchdown pass to win the
game." Coach Rich Brooks
said
"I'm glad about the (7-0
home) record," Musgrave said.
"That last pass was probably
my Ix’st pass of the day too. 1
was glad to finally throw a
good pass because it wasn't the
best day throwing out then*.
“We really wanted to score
on that last play," he said.
“We wanted that last play in
Autzen to be a touchdown."
“I think emotion swung our
way and we wanted it more
than they did deep down,”
kaanapu said. "We have estab
lished a tradition here that we
are one of the most dominant
teams in the Pac-10 and the na
tion."
