the country. Hopefully, our girls
will learn from these experiences
and become better because of it.
Some of the scores may not show
it, but these were all pretty close
matches.”
Nagy defeated Oregon’s Andrea
Petrovic, a junior from Frankfurt,
Germany, in a match that featured
nearly as much talk as it did ten
nis.
With the players doing much of
the judging themselves, tempers
flared repeatedly between the Eu
ropeans in the opening sets before
an official took over and let the
players concentrate on the third
set.
Nagy stormed out to a 5-1 lead
in the third, but with the decided
ly partisan home crowd rooting
her on, Petrovic clawed back to
within one game before Nagy took
the match, 6-2,3-6,6-4.
The No. 1 singles match also
featured its share of bilingual ban
ter between Polish natives Alina
Wygonowska of Oregon and Pa
trycja Gajdzik of Washington
State.
Wygonowska took leads of 2-0
and 4-3 in the opening set, then
played her best tennis of the
match to force a tiebreaker after
Gajdzik took a 6-5 advantage.
With her energy expended,
Wygonowska dropped the
tiebreaker 7-1, then the match, 7
6,6-3.
Sports Brief
Kergroach defeats
top-ranked Kudrnac
In what Oregon men’s ten*

called ‘‘the biggest win in
Oregon tennis history," ju

the nation’s No. 1 men’s play
er Saturday at the Gaucho
Classic in Santa Barbara,
Calif.
Kergroach, ranked 87th,
knocked off Oklahoma State’s
Pavel Kudrnac 6-3,6-1 to im
prove his season record to 18

“He did something extreme

“mainly in the fact that he
dominated the guy.”
The win was the first time

ranked No. 1, Russell said.
As a team, the Ducks lost 4-2
to the Cowboys to finish up the
three-day Gaucho Classic with
a 1-2 record.
