the season in a 4-2 win. They
followed that performance with
a 1-0 win over the Sun Devils
on Sunday.
“I think [the Ducks] felt very
good with how they performed
last weekend in two solid wins,
in which I think we controlled
both games,” Steffen said.
Cal and Oregon have met just
once with the Golden Bears
winning 1-0 in Eugene last
season on a goal by forward
Amy Balavac in the 51st
minute. As the final score
would seem to indicate, the
game was close as Cal outshot
the Ducks by just a 9-6 margin.
With a possible Pac-10 title
and NCAA Tournament berth
on the line, the Bears will
definitely will be prepared
when Oregon shows up at
Goldman Field on Friday.
“[The Bears] are very solid at
all spots,” Steffen said.
“They’ve got a good work ethic
and a good work rate.”

sophomore midfielder Natalie

On Sunday, White and Ernst,
as well as fellow seniors Tanya
Minion and Lindsay Mayer, will
play on McArthur Court for the
last time. That in itself is motiva
tion for the Ducks to come away
with a victory against Washing
ton.
“We just want to have a great
match for the seniors,” Tobbagi
Stuhlmueller (five goals, four
assists) lead the Cal offensive
attack with 14 points apiece.
Stanford defeated the Ducks,
4-0, in the teams’ only meeting,
which was last season in
Eugene. Four different players
scored for the Cardinal in a
balanced offensive showing.
After beginning the
conference season ranked in the
top 25 nationally, Stanford was
dealt losses in four of its first
five Pac-10 games. The
Cardinal, like the Bears, need to
finish strongly this weekend in
order to impress NCAA
Tournament officials.
“Stanford will be two
extremes,” Steffen said.
“They’ve got some really
talented forwards, and they
tend to hang back and just try
and expose those forwards.”
The best of those forwards is

paces the team with nine goals
and 19 total points. Goalkeeper
Carly Smolak, a native of Lake
Oswego, is second in the
conference with a .96 goals
against average.
said. “We’re going to go all out be
cause it’s our last time playing to
gether with them at home.”
This match could prove to be a
battle of serves. After serving its
way to a win against Arizona and
into the record books, Oregon
faces a Washington team that has
been equally successful with its
serves.
Washington setter Angie Short

served 10 straight points in Game
1 against California last week be
fore serving seven straight in
Game 2.
“We need to really focus on our
passing to eliminate those kinds
of runs,” Tobbagi said. And I need
to work on keeping my serves in.”
For the Huskies, a win is criti
cal if they hope to get to .500 in
conference play.
