10 (inference match against intraslate rival Ore
gon State, 16-14, 15-17, 14-16, 16-14, 11-15, Fri
day night in Corvallis
"It was a fun match to play in." said Oregon
middle blocker Karissa Meith. "Stephanie was
playing great; she was really putting the bull
down "
The match was one of the longest in coach ( Jer
ry Gregory’s seven-vear tenure at Oregon, taking
three hours and 15 minutes to play. Meith said
the length of the match had little to do with the
final outcome.
"We had so much adrenaline going in the fifth
game, I don't think anyone really felt tired,"
Meith said "i’lus, we re pretty well conditioned
Warren made 82 kill attempts for the evening,
picking up some of the slack created when in
jured teammate L.uKeinn Woods was forced to

sore shoulder Woods finished the match with 11
kills despite the injury

hard effort," (Gregory said. "Wn had our opportu
nities, especially in games two and throe, hut

Oregon's middle blockers had their l>est night
of the season, with Anger Henderson. Anne Con
way and Meith combining for 32 kills Meilh said
that the play of the middle blockers helped ac
count for Warren's high kill total
"OfiCe the middle bloc kers got established. It
helped open things up for Stephanie." Meith
said "It wasn't as if we were only going to Steph
anie Wo were still trying to mix our plays up "
Shelly Smith, who was questionable before the
match because of a sprained ankle, led the Hea
vers with 1H kills
"She (Smith) looked like she was fine to me,
Gregory said
The loss dropped the Ducks into a lust-place tie
with Oregon State, as each school now lias a Tit)
conference record Things will not gel any easier
for Oregon this weekend, as the Ducks play host
to No 1-ranked UCLA on Triday night at 7 p in
