All this week, the anticipated
annmmi emnnl of.» Mart h Mad
ness berth has boon looming on
the Oregon campus Thu men's
basketball team needs just one
win out its two remaining games
to solidify its plat e in the NCAA
tournament for the first time in
34 years
If the Ducks get their needed
victory on the road tomorrow
night or Saturday, expect an
explosion of ext itement among
the men's fans equaling the
excitement generated by the foot
ball team's berth in the Rose
Bowl.
But wait, what about the other
basketball team? The women are
having a good year of their own
So what has happens! to the fans
Mark McTyw:
that filled Mt.Arthur Court in
record numbers showing their
support last year?
The women's team (Hi-9 over
all. 9-7 Pac-10) has virtually gone
unnoticed this year by Oregon
fans as they have taken a back
seat to the men's incredible turn
around performance.
Last year, head coach Jody
Rouge did the unimaginable by
taking a Duck team to the NCAA
tournament and advancing them
to the second round t» her first
year at Oregon The year prior to
her arrival, the team had posted
« lowly t>- 1H record
"I his year, a team that was sup
posed to feel the absence of front
line mates Outline Spurt ich and
Sara Wilson, ami three-point
bomber Missy Croshaw. is in the
hunt for a set ond consecutive
berth in the big show. Although
the team is on the bubble, need
ing to gain victories over nation
ally ranked Southern California
and unpredictable UCl*A to have
a shot at a berth, it is very con
ceivable that the women could
make it into the group of 64
schools
Leading up to these final two
games of the regular season, the
women have compiled a portfo
lio that illustrates hints of (i pos
siblo storylKMik ending to anolh
er great season the kind that
you'll watch prior to a March
Madness grnne 20 years down the
line Hie only different e between
what you see now mid what
you'll see then are the seats that
will be left empty at Mai Court
bemuse there will he too many
people sitting at home watching
the men
The Ducks opened their season
in late November with a con
vincing 17 point win over Illi

record stood at Hi! Four games
later, the Ducks had improved to
11-3, losing only to nationally
