Washington did not necessarily play
well, (early in the match) hut they made
the plavs they needed to win." Oregon
head coach Gerry Gregory said.
It did take some courage for our team
to come back and to take the third game,
but in the fifth game, with rally scoring.
you have to either play ported or not get
in too big of o hole," he said. "VVe didn't
side out a couple of times when we need
ed to. ... We made too many mistakes.”
Gregors' praised the play of swing hitter
Amy McNeel. "She did a really good job
passing for us. She was definitely on her
game.”

State’s stars. However, the Cougars
received an unexpected boost from a
huge match by freshman Sarah Silvernail,
who didn't even play against Oregon in
their first meeting. She recorded 23 kills
and a .488 hitting percentage Friday
