to play [this season],” head
coach Jody Runge said. “If not
at [point guard], because we’re
pretty loaded at the one, then at
[shooting guard].”
Alissa Edwards, a 5-6 guard
averaged 21 points, 5.8 assists,
5.5 rebounds and 5.3 steals per
game for Hermiston as a junior
and was named to the all-state
second team as a senior.
“Alissa Edwards can really
shoot,” Runge said. “If she
comes along defensively,
she’ll get good minutes. ”
Duck fans might recognize
the other two additions to the
active roster.
Amanda Brown from the
extensive coverage she re
ceived in The Register Guard
for her prep exploits in bas
ketball and track and field.
Earlier this year, Brown
captured her fourth-straight
state long jump title for Shel
don High School. A few
months earlier, the 5-6 guard
led the Irish to the state bas
ketball quarterfinals.
Alyssa Fredrick might
seem familiar too. The 6-3
transfer from San Diego State
attended every Oregon home
game last season. She was at
the end of the bench, in street
clothes, sweating our a man
dated redshirt season.
“It got really boring sitting
on the end of the bench in a
skirt,” Fredrick said. “I want
to puh-lay.”
The last time Fredrick had
the chance to play at McArthur
court was in 1997, as an Aztec.
She had a successful per
formance, setting a Pepsi
Shootout record with 15 re
bounds in one game.
Players different, teams same

ATLANTA —A lot has changed
since the New York Yankees last
came south for the World Series.
The old stadium is just a parking
lot now, with painted lines where
the basepaths used to be. Jimmy
Key and Cecil Fielder are out of
baseball. Mark Wohlers and Mar
quis Grissom are out of Atlanta.
“I don’t think we’re going to
spend a lot of time figuring out
what’s the difference between now
and 1996,” Atlanta pitcher Tom
Glavine said Thursday.
Glavine will start against Orlan
do “El Duque” Hernandez, MVP of
the AL Championship Series, in
game 1 Saturday night at Turner
Field.
The addresses have switched,
and so have the attitudes going
into a rematch of the ’96 Series,
won by New York in six games.
“That team wasn’t sure if it was
good enough to beat [Atlanta],”
said pitcher David Cone, one of 12
Yankees left from that club. “We
had never done it before. Now we
have the experience to know what
we can do.”
First baseman Tino Martinez
said: “That year we were the un
derdogs. We wanted to win, but
this year we expect to win.”
Chipper Jones is one of only
eight still remaining onAtlanta.
“We’re a lot closer as a team,
we’re a lot tighter,” the third base
man said. “We didn’t have a lot of
injuries ’96, we didn’t have a lot of
adversity.”
Atlanta’s only setback came that
season after they won the first two
games of the World Series at New
York. Back home, in the final three
games ever at Atlanta-Fulton
County Stadium, they lost three in
a row to the Yankees.
In the pivotal play of the series,
Jim Leyritz hit a three-run homer in
the eighth inning on a hanging
breaking ball from Wohlers in game
4. The long drive sailed over the
glove of left fielder Andruw Jones.
“That was a mistake that he hit
it,” Jones said after Thursday’s
workout. “But I don’t remember
that stuff. That was 1996 and this is
1999. I’m hoping things go differ
ently.”
The defending champion Yan
kees are trying to win their third
championship in four years. At
lanta is hoping to win its second ti
tle in the ’90s — and avoid becom
ing the first team to lose four World
Series in a decade since the New
York Giants from 1910-19.
Atlanta won two of three at Y an
kee Stadium in July during inter
league play. But slugger Ryan
Klesko, who homered twice in one
of those games, said that won’t
have much effect on what happens
in October.
Klesko said the results from
1996 won’t play a role, either.
“I think we’ve changed a lot
more than they have.”
Kansas City’s defense on the offensive
By David Ginsburg
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — As expected,
the Kansas City didn’t generate
much offense against the Balti
more Ravens. It didn’t have to.
Kansas City turned two inter
ceptions into touchdowns, in
cluding a 56-yard score by James
Hasty, and cruised to a 35-8 victo
ry Thursday night.
Kansas City (4-2) had 80 yards
in the first half and only 132 yards
through three quarters. Elvis Gr
bac threw two touchdown passes
to Tony Gonzalez and the defense
did the rest, completely frustrating
Baltimore quarterback Stoney
Case in the process.
Hasty’s touchdown made it 14-0
in the third quarter, and that was
enough to dispatch the Ravens (2
4), who lost their second straight
under first-year coach Brian Billick.
The conservative game plan of
Kansas City coach Gunther Cun
ningham worked to perfection —
thanks to a defense that came
within four minutes of the team’s
first road shutout in 23 years.
After Grbac connected with
Gonzalez for a 22-yard touchdown
with 12:37 left, Donnie Edwards
picked off Case’s pass and lat
eraled to Reggie Tongue, who
went the final 38 yards for a 28-0
lead.
That ended the night for Case, a
hero earlier in the year but the re
cipient of jeers from the crowd of
68,771. Case was 15-for-37 for 103
yards before being replaced by
Tony Banks.
The Ravens broke the shutout
with 4:05 left, thanks to a pass in
terference call that covered 35
yards. Errict Rhett scored from the
2, ruining Kansas City’s bid for
their first road shutout since a 19-0
victory over San Diego in 1976.
Hasty had two interceptions in a
game for the first time since 1988.
Kansas City had one efficient
drive in the first half, and it was
enough to put it up 7-0 at halftime.
Case was l-for-10 in the first
quarter, but the Ravens benefited
from two pass interference penal
ties against Cris Dishman, includ
ing a 37-yarder, to move to the
Kansas City 16.
Matt Stover kicked a 32-yard
field goal, but Baltimore had 12
men on the field. Stover then hit
the right upright with a 37-yard
try.
Kansas City, meanwhile, didn’t
get its initial first down until Gr
bac completed a 20-yard pass to
Kevin Lockett the final play of the
first period. That started a 73-yard
drive that ended with Grbac
.throwing an 11-yard touchdown
pass to Gonzalez.
Kansas City managed only sev
en yards and failed to make a first
down on its other six possessions
before halftime.
