Patterson: Distractions, pressure hurt her play fH Continued from Page 7 But this season has not been such a fairy tale for Patterson. After placing in the top 10 in three of Oregon’s four fall compe titions, Patterson has just one top 10 finish in six spring tourna ments and her round average has risen to 76.4. Patterson and Baumgartner both say that some of her drop-off in production this season is be cause of a swing change that will benefit her in the long run. “This year, I haven’t been trust ing my swing, and I’ve gone through a lot of changes,” Patter son says. She says she needs to refocus herself mentally in order to regain her championship form at region al. “This year, I’ve kind of got in the back of my head, ‘Hmm, I’m going to be doing this for a living next year. I’ve got to play good.’ And that’s put some pressure on. I want to finish good again this year and prove to everyone that I can do it again.” Baumgartner says she is confi dent that Patterson will recover from her tie for 32nd at the Pacif ic-10 Conference Championships and peak at regionals and the NCAA Championships. Oregon needs to finish in the top 11 as a team at regionals to qualify for the championships, which will begin May 20 in Madison, Wis. “I look to her to put some solid rounds together and to really en joy her senior year and her last few rounds as a college golfer,” Baumgartner says. Once her last college round is over, Patterson plans to test her skills in professional golf. After a summer of practice, she hopes to qualify for the PGA Tour in Au gust. Baumgartner says she believes Patterson has all the tools neces sary to realize her pro dreams. “This is something that I told Paula," Baumgartner says. “Any first team All-American, they have something special. If she re ally wants to go out and turn pro and give 110 percent, she’s going to make it. She’s just one of those diamonds in the rough that came along and really blossomed and has been a great player for us." If Patterson goes on to have as much success in the professional ranks as she has had in collegiate golf, she will be able to adorn her bag with bundles of cash and give it an entirely new fragrance. Rematch between Johnson, Bailey is a possibility Representatives for the two sprinters are talking about a rematch in New York By Paul Newberry The Associated Press ATLANTA — Contrary to what some think, Michael John son is not consumed by the idea of a rematch with Donovan Bai ley. “I get asked about it all the time, but for me it’s a non-issue,” Johnson said Tuesday during a stop to promote this summer’s Goodwill Games in New York. “Once a race is over, it’s done with, it’s finished. You have to take the bad with the good.” Johnson, the Olympic champi on at 200 and 400 meters, and Bailey, the gold medalist in the 100-meter dash, met last year in a made-for-TV, 150-meter match race in Toronto. The ballyhooed event failed to live up to expecta tions when Johnson pulled up injured about 70 meters into the race and Bailey streaked to an unsatisfying victory. Now, representatives of the two sprinters are talking about a sequel in New York. Johnson said he isn’t against the proposal, which faces myriad problems before it becomes real ity. But he felt as if he made a sig nificant sacrifice to take part in last year’s race and is looking for more of a legitimate track event to stage any rematch. “I don’t think about it daily and say to myself, ‘I've got to do this again,”' he said. "I look at it just like I would any potential race. It's separate from what's happened in the past or anything like that. Certainly, if the Good will Games wants to put that on and if it works for me, I’ll be there.” From Johnson's standpoint, that means there’s no chance he’ll race down a temporary track through Times Square, as has been suggested to hype the event. “One of the mistakes last time was having it in SkyDome on a track that was just rubber laid out over concrete,” Johnson said. "It had lumps and things like that. But that was something I felt like needed to happen for the good of the sport.” Emerald CLASSIFIEDS Call 346-4343 or stop by Suite 300 EMU to place your ad today 095 PERSONALS Need players: Oregon Hand Ball.
