court this season, track is prob
ably hor strongest sport. As a
freshman last spring, she
placed third in both the 100
and 200-metor sprints at the
Pac-10 meet.
With Woods' leaping ability,
apparent each time she at
tempts a kill, she seems a natu
ral long or high jumper, but
Woods has no plans to expand
hor track duties.
"It would take too much time
to learn those events because
they're really technique-ori
ented," she said. "People think
that sprinters just walk up to
the starting lino and take ofT,
but we spend a lot of time on
technique, too.”
Although she is already
pressed for time playing two
sports. Woods doesn't entirely
rule out the possibility of be
coming the first Oregon female
athlete in 15 years to play three
sports in one year.
"During my senior season of
high school. I was probably a
better basketball player than
volleyball player," Woods said.
"I haven't been able to keep my
basketball skills as sharp as
they were bocauso I haven't
had time to practice, but if the
team looked like it was going to
contend and the coaches want
ed mo, I might consider play
ing."
