Loss: Ducks drop to 4-6 in Pac-10

ed with the outcome,” third base
man Katie Mackey said. "The
whole day was pretty darn frus
trating. We just could never capi
talize on our opportunities.”
Of which there were few.
Oregon State got on the board
in the first inning of Game 1 when
designated hitter Courtney Stew
ert lined a one-out single to left
field that brought home two runs.
The Beavers added two in the
fourth on a Beyster home run and
a sacrifice fly to right field that
brought Stewert home from third.
Oregon countered with a nin in
the sixth when pitcher Jennie
Cook lined a Beyster pitch over
the wall in left field. Cook helped
her cause with a two-for-two per
formance at the plate in Game 1.
But the Beavers added two more

runs in the bot
tom of the in
ning and cruised
to the easy 4-1
victory.
“We really
struggled at the
plate.” Oregon
head coach Rick
Gamez said. “We
failed to make adjustments on
[Beyster’s] riseball, and didn’t
make good decisions.
“But I give Beyster the credit.
She was the key for them, and has
been all season. She threw strikes
and really helped herself at the
plate.”
Mackey agreed.
“Beyster had her stuff,” she
said. “But I didn’t think she was
overpowering.”
Not overpowering, just consis
tent.
In Game 2, Beyster struck out
six Oregon batters and allowed
just five hits and one run through
seven innings of work.
But the final blow came in the
sixth when Beyster broke open a
2-1 ballgame with a two-run
home run to deep center field.
The home run was the sopho
more’s eighth of the season,
which ranks third in the Pac-10.
Beyster finished the day four
for-five from the plate with two
home runs, three runs batted in
and two victories which moved
Oregon State (22-13, 5-5) ahead of
the No. 17 Ducks into a tie for
fourth in the Pac-10.
The two losses dropped Oregon
to 32-17 overall and 4-6 in the
conference — five games behind
Pac-10 leader Arizona.

player in the Rolex Collegiate Tennis Rankings, 6-4,
7-6.
“Erwin is playing at [a high] level pretty consis
tently,” Russell said. “He’s continuing to get us lot of
recognition, and we need that.”
In other singles action on Saturday, No. 12 Allegre
easily handled Carter 6-1, 6-0, No. 34 Breen beat
Navarro, 6-2,6-1, No. 84 Cook knocked off Van Haver,
6-1, 6-2 and Kramer overwhelmed Becker, 6-2,6-2.
The only other drama for Oregon came at No. 4 sin
gles, where Hamdan provided his second stirring
match of the day, dropping the first set to Decret 6-1
before taking the second 7-5. The fatigue of the
lengthy doubles match caught up to Hamdan in the
third set, however, and Decret took the set and the
match, 6-0.
“Overall, the level of competitiveness, even though
the scores in some of the matches weren’t that close,
was better,” Russell said.
The head coach did say the Ducks’ effort Saturday
was an improvement over the team’s performance
against the No. 9 Trojans.
USC swept the Ducks on Friday at the Eugene
Swim and Tennis Club, with only one Oregon athlete
taking a match to three sets.
Carter dropped the first set to USC’s Roman Kukal
6-4 before rallying to take the second 6-1. Kukal re
covered to ensure the Trojan sweep, 8-6.
In other singles results, Kergroach lost to No. 33
George Bastl, 6-4, 6-2, Navarro fell to Patrick
Gottesleben, 6-1, 6-3, Hamdan was vanquished by
Kyle Spencer, 6-3, 7-5, Miguel Arriaga was downed
by Fernando Samayoa, 6-4,6-4, and Van Haver lost a
heartbreaker to Christoph Poehler, 7-6, 7-5.
The No. 33 doubles pair of Bastl and Gottesleben
beat Kergroach and Carter, 8-3, Kukal and Samayoa
combined to conquer Hamdan and Navarro, 8-4, and
Spencer paired with Akram Zaman to take Arriaga
and Becker, 8-4.
Up next for Oregon is its final home match of the
season Saturday against Washington.
