If team continued its
excellent tall season last
l! weekend bv finishing
fourth among a tough field at the
Stanford Intercollegiate on Sun
day.
The ninth-ranked Pucks
opened the tournament with a
5-over-par 297 last I riday. The
Pucks followed with rounds of
301 and 304 over the weekend
to finish at 9Q4, one stroke ahead
of No. 1 UCLA.
“That was probably our best
tournament," Oregon first-year
head coach Lara Mai k said. "We
have had a string of great tour
naments. We had some good
scores, considering the course
and competition I’d sas it was our
best performance."
No. Cranked San Jose State
won the tournament at S(v3, fol
lowed by second-ranked Arizona
State and l SC. which is tied
with the Puck' at No. 9. In addi
tion to UC LA, the Pucks also
finished ahead of third-ranked
Stanford, seventh-ranked Ari
zona and four other teams
ranked in the top 20.
“We just have great players,"
Mack said. “It has worked out
well because almost every tour
nament someone steps up and
performs really well, and the rest
of the team also plays gixxl "
Karls Mills paced the Pucks
at Stanford, shooting a I-over
par 220 to finish ill sixth place.
Mills opened the tournament
with an even-par 7 L followed by
rounds of 74 and 71 over the
weekend.
“Karly had a great tourna
ment,” Mack said. "Sixth place
among that field is excellent.

We are hurt in some ways, hut
Oregon still has some pretty good
things to offer."
On the other hand, schools
that may In.- academically more
stable or have a well-heeled ath
letic department can't guarantee
success, Gregory said. I le point
ed to Washington State and Ore
gon State, hardly the two most
glamorous or prestigious schools
in the Pacific-10Conference, but
two schools with rapidly improv
ing volleyball programs.
The support the Cougars and
Beavers are getting from their
fans and athletic departments
factors heavily in their success.
And how do you generate
support ?
"There’s a relationship
between crowd support and suc
cess. I think that’s only nght. We
reward success in the United
States. That’s the way we do
things. That’s not only capitalis
tic, it only makes sense," he said.
