GNCUA Defense shines in scrimmage ■ FOOTBALL: All three quarterbacks remain in position for starting job next fall By Ryan Halvorsen Sports Reporter The Ducks put a few more worries over the de fense behind them Friday in the last scrimmage be fore the spring football game this Saturday. Gang Green resurfaced and smothered the Ducks’ offense, scoring four times along the way. “Obviously our defense dominated,” Oregon head coach Mike Bellotti said. “I was encouraged by that. I think we picked up today where we left off last year.” Safety Chris Lewman made one of the bigger plays of the day for the Ducks, picking off a pass thrown by A. J. Feeley and returning it 81 yards for a touch down. Defensive end Caleb Smith got in on the action as well, batting down a pass by Jason Maas and return ing it most of the way before lateraling to linebacker Peter Sirmon for the score. Sirmon also recovered a fumble in the end zone for another defensive score, and the defense also caught tailback Saladin McCullough in the end zone early in the game for a safety. Although the defense stood out Friday, one of the primary goals for the team is to find a new starting quarterback; however, not one of the three candidates played much better than the other two. Akili Smith completed 5-of-8 passes for 34 yards, A. J. Feeley was 2-of-4 for 21 yards and Jason Maas completed ll-of-15 for 107 yards. There were a few bright spots other than the defense on the day. McCullough re turned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown to go along with his 14 yards rushing on seven carries. Kevin Parker moved back to tailback after starting out the spring season as a comerback. He had 10 car ries for 25 yards and three receptions for 29 yards. Pat Johnson led the receivers with six receptions for 50 yards, while tight end Jed Weaver caught two passes for 18 yards. “We still have a long way to go, and there is a lot of work to be done," Bellotti said.
