OSU tonight
By Jake Berg

Nothing moans anything
when Oregon and Oregon
Slate piny.
Hut winning means every
thing when the two teams
finish the Civil War wom
en's basketball game. Thu
two teams meet for the first
lime this season tonight at
7 30 in Corvallis
Remember, this is tire con
test that saw both schools
lose on their home courts
last season The Civil War is
trudilinnnlly .1 game that
stands on its own.
"This is an independent
war," said Aki Hill, head
coach of the 0-10 overall and
1-5 Pacific-10 Conference
Beavers.
Oregon coach Elwin
Hoiny has said il Indore, and
he said it again. When ii
comes to the Civil War,
throw all pusl records out.
he said
"It s sort of what you al
ways say," Hoiny said, "but
there's a lot to it "
So it seems After Ore
gon's humbling 74-58 loss at
McArthur Court last year,
the Ducks edged the Beavers
05-0.1 In the CHI Coliseum
remulch Oregon has won
seven straight in Corvallis
And after winning ul both
Arizona schools last week,
the Ducks proved they can
still win on the road
