Men look for win against No. 8
By Dave Charbonneau
fcmoraid Sports Editor
The Oregon men's Iwsketbali
team has lost six straight
games, is winless in the Pacific
to Conference, and is playing
ns Imd ns it has played nil sea
son — not the most opportune
circumstances to lx* confronted
by the eighth-ranked team in
the nation.
But that is what the Ducks
will !»• faced with tonight when
they try to do the seemingly
impossible: knot k off 11-2 Ari
zona at Mi Arthur Court.
The Wildcats ore in first
place in the I’m -10 with .1 5-ti
rei ord. Oregon is ()-<> nod in
l.ist plate in the <on fe rent<■.
and have lost those six games
hy an average of 13 points
Since their impressive show
ing in I)e< ember s Far West
( las-,11 . the Ihn.'ks have limi
bhrd in nil phases of their game
Assists',in- down, turnovers nn>
up, and morale is plummeting
for Jerry Green's team that stir
passer) last season's vic tory to
tal 12 games mlo the season
By the way Oregon has
played its first six Pan-10
games, it may not tie able to
el lipse a seven-win season
But the Duck players are
hoping tradition and o little
home-court luck will work in
their favor.
Oregon has defeated nation
ally-ranked Wildcat teams at
home two of the last three sea
sons A win at home against Ar
izona would obviously do a lot
in boosting the confidence on
the Ducks
"We haven't tieen real confi
dent lately." Oregon forward
Antoine Stoudnraire said
We re looking at tins game as
n i hnnee to restore that confi
dence we had after the Great
Alaskan Shootout and the f at
West Classii
As was the case last season, it
seems as though the Ducks go
as St ou da m ire goes
Stoudnmire shot around 45 per
(mil from the field and aver
aged 1H points through Ore
gon's first IS games, hut the se
nior has struggled the past
three game*, averaging only 11
point* while shooting under to
percent.
He and guard Orlando Wil
liams have both been hard
pressed to provide the outside
scoring threat on which Oregon
depends Williams and
Stoudamire have combined to
hit only 40 percent from the
field in Pat -to play.
Stoudamire said he realizes
that needs to improve for Ore
gon to have a chance the rest of
the season
"It's In-ei) Iwd lu< k that Or
lando and I have Iwth started to
slump at the same time."
Stoudamire said. "I can't re
member anytime in my career
that I've had three straight had
games We just have to keep
taking our shots as they come
and have confidence that they
will start falling."
Oregon will need hot shoot
ing and lough defense if it es
pects to give Arizona a fight
l.ast season, the Wildcats

Women take Pac-10
jinx into game at UA
By Steve Mims
Emerald Sports Reporter*
The Oregon women's bas
ketball team had high hopes
for the 1992-93 basketball
season after going 6-3 in the
pre-season, but they travel to
Arizona this weekend 0-6
and searching for answers.
The quick start and subse
quent fall once conference
play begins isn't new for the
Ducks, as they have never
won less than 667 percent of
their pre-season games in the
Inst seven years, but have
gone on to winning records
in the Pacific-10 Conference
only two of those seven
years.
In 1990-91, Oregon went
7-3 in the pre-season and bet
tered that with an H-2 record
the following year, but fin
ished 6-12 In conference play
both years. This disturbing
trend began in 1987-88 when
Oregon went 7-3 in the pre
season but finished 9-9 in the
Pac-10. Two years later. Ore
gon went 8-3 in pre-season
but once again finished 9-9 in
the conference.
''I think injuries are the big
reason we have fallen off
when the Pac-10 season be
gins.” Oregon head coach Kl
win Heiny said. "Injuries
have been especially tough
the past two years.”
Tlie injury bug has hit Ore
gon's inside players the hard
est the past two years, with
Debbie Sporcich suffering the
most. Sporcich missed 10
games during the middle of
last season and has played in
only nine of Oregon's 15
games this season. The fi
