Oregon volleyball loses two matches
By Scon Simonson
Oegoo 0,v‘> f ,'ntrmkI
The Oregon volleyball team
improves with almost every
match The question now is
whether its improvement will be
measured in the win column
before the season ends
"Tins team has got a lot of wins
ahead of it 1 don't know how
soon that's going to happen, hut
we're on the right I rat k," head
coach (>errv Gregory said
This weekend, Oregon lost to
Arizona, ranked 21st nationally,
and Arizona State, ranked 17th
nationally The Ducks record fell
to 112 in the I’m ifir -10 confer
ence and -117 for the season
Neither opponent had an easy
time with tile Ducks Oregon has
proved that it is capable of play
ing a competitive match with any
team it far es However, in a con
ference where at least seven
opponents have been ranked in
the top 25 nationally this season,
competitiveness alone seldom
guarantees a win
Oregon's matc h against Ari
zona on l-ridnv was alarmingly
predictable. Oregon led 11-10 in
the First game tmfore allowing five
i onset.utivu points by the Wild
cats to end the gome The Due ks
lost the srs olid game 15-10.
The match appeared destined
for a fourth game after Oregon led
12 4 m the third, but the Wild
rats had history on their side Ari
zona didn't panic; it attacked
Oregon collapsed, and Arizona
won the game 15-12.
Top Oregon performers in tire
match included quick hitter
Angee Henderson, with 14 kills
and a 204 hitting percentage, and
setter Anna Gomez, with 14 digs
Duck fans were left wondering
what might have been had Ore
gon's leader in kilts per game
average, quit k hitter Karissa Mei
th. not missed the match with an
ankle injury
The Dm ks started slow h . mak
ing mistakes and finding few
holes in the Sun Devil defense It
lost the first game lr>-4 Solid
him king helped Oregon open up
a quit k lead in the second game,
whit h it held onto to w in 15-11
Oregon lost a hard fought third
game 15-12 AM ’ grabbed a quick
7-0 lead ill the fourth.
Swing hitter Amy Mi Neel s 32
digs were the most bv any Duck
player in a game this season.
Swing hitter LaReina Woods had
27 blocks. Henderson had 20
kills, and Meith added lfi
"We played much (letter as
the match went on 1 felt like
we were in the match and had n
chance to win." Gregory said
I've got a lot of respect for
Karissa Meith tonight. She
couldn't play last night, and I
know her ankle felt like it was
going to fall off. She showed a
lot of courage."

Duck women finish fourth at meet
By Dave Chartoonneau
Or&gan iX* » ‘y fmotvM
It was tho type of day that Oregon's cross coun
try team doesn’t see that often.
Both the men s and the women's team came
away with disappointing performances at tin*
Pacific-10 Conference Championships, failing to
successfully defend their titles In Palo Alto, Calif..
Saturday
The men failed to place a runner in the top 10
and finished third. 17 points behind Washington,
which edged rival Washington State. 67-70.
The Huskies were able to overcome a 1-2 finish
by the Cougars' Josephal Kapkory and Patrick
Muturi by placing four scorers in the top 15.
Oregon's top finisher was John Dimoff. who took
11th.
"Even as well as John ran, we should have had
about three guys in front of him,” Oregon men's
coach Bill Dellinger said. "I'm not real happy with
the way we ran. We're capable of better
"Washington ran a good race and deserved to
win. There's a lot of room for improvement for our
team, and we're going to have to do it if we're
going to do anything at the district meet.
Karl Keska was Oregon's second finisher at 13th.
and Tracy Hollister finished 17th. Tho Ducks' oth
er two scorers were Jason Humble (21st) and Kick
Cantwell (22nd).
For the women, Oregon freshman Milena Glusac
led for most of the race but lost the load in the
downhill stretch to finish third overall. Melody
Fairchild ran her host race os a Duck, taking fifth.
But Stanford was able to beat second-place Ari
zona by ten points, placing all five scorers in the
top 15. The Cardinal finished with 55 points.
UCLA finished third with 71, seven points ahead
of the Ducks.
Oregon's Niamh Zwagerman was the third Ore
gon scorer, finishing 16th. The other two scorers
for the Ducks were Jenna Carlson (22nd) and Joni
Wareham (32nd).
"I was so confident in our abilities beforehand
that this is a shock.” women's coach Tom
Heinonen said. "We fell off the horse today, and
we need to get back on and ride or wo won’t make
it to nationals.
“It was a disappointing performance, although
Milena and Melody ran quite well. Now is the time
for us to get it together for the rest of the season."
Both the men and the women won Pac-10 titles,
and for the women, it was only the second time
in eight years that they failed to win the confer
ence championship.
The Oregon teams will get a chance to redeem
themselves in two weeks at the District VII! meet
in Woodland. Wash. The top two teams at district
automatically qualify for the NCAA champi
onships later in November.
