    Ducks look to avenge
losses to Bears, Cards
By Erick Studenicka
Emerald Sports Reporter
The Oregon volleyball loam will be looking to avenge two early
season losses this weekend as tho squad travels to the Bay Areu for
matches against Cal-Berkcley and Stanford.
Oregon players have boon looking forward to playing Cal over
since their Sept. 25 mooting at McArthur Court Oregon played
horribly thBt night, losing 3-1 and prompting an hour long team
mooting In which orach Gerry Gregory questioned the players do
sire to win.
"Out of all of our losses, the most disappointing wus to Cal.”
said Oregon outside hitler Stephanie Warren "It was our home
opener and wo won the first game, but then we just gave up Evory
ono on the team feels we should have beaten them "
The Ducks are coming off their best weekend of the year, having
split with tho Arizona schools at home lust weekend The Duck*
looked especially impressive in their loss against Arizona State,
taking the No. IB ranked team in the country to five games
Warren, who was nominated for the Pacific-10 Conference player
of tho week after recording 22 kills against Arizona last week, said^
the Cal match forced Gregory to intensify the team's workouts
"Ever since the Cal match, coach has made the practices really
tough," Warren said. "We've been concentrating on playing a total
match, rather than |ust playing one or two g<x>d games and then
letting down.”
Whiln the Ducks figure to have a good shot at beating Gal, it will
take a major upset for Oregon to defeat Stanford, ranker! No 2 in
the nation.
Stanford defeated No. 4 Pacific on Wednesday and appears to lie
UCLA's only serious competition for the Pac-10 title. Stanford's
only loss came at the hands of UCLA in a 16-14 fifth game thriller
on Oct. 2.
Stanford head coach Don Shaw said that he has hoard "gixid
things" about Oregon's play in recent weeks.
"Gerry (Gregory) and I am good friends, and he seems a lot more
satisfied with their level of play in recent weeks," Shaw said
"During early season matches, Oregon had a tendency to give up
late in a match. Tho difference in their play now Is that they're not
giving up."
