Frioder told a group of reporters
after the win.
You see. not only did
Frieder's 13th* ranked Sun Dev
ils get ripped off by the Beavers
in Corvallis on Thursday, but a
break-in of his room at the
team's hotel between 0:37 p tn
and H):!4 p in on Friday
evening here in Eugene tended
to put yet another damper on his
already dysfunctional trip to the
Northwest
"I got robbed at the Valley

Frtedor said. "Someone broke in
my room and stole all my stuff
— my money, my credit cards,
my briefcase, my keys, my air
line tickets, my game tickets,
everything that I had.”
Frteder estimated that $5,000
in personal and team expense
money was taken as both his
briefcase and his w ife's purse
were missing when ho got hack
to his room after a brief trip to
the hotel's lobby
"It was a rewarding win con
sidering ail that." tie Mini
Needless to say. Frieder had
quite a bit on bis mind going
into the contest against the 18th
ranked Dm ks And considering
all the obvious inconveniences
that went along with the theft,
he chose not to tell his team in
an effort to keep the real task at
hand in the minds of his play
ers.
"It was important for me to
stay focused after that hap
pened." Frieder said. 1 didn't
