Head coach Renee Baumgart ner announced the signings of Spokane, Wash., native Jaime Seefreid and Katharina Schallen berg of Germany. “Katharina is an outstanding player on the German national team, and we expect her to come in here and make an impact next year,” Baumgartner said. “Jaime is also very athletic, she will be a great addition to the Oregon pro gram.” Softball goes out of state for three signings The Oregon women’s softball team signed a trio of talented players to conclude its fall signing period. Coach Rick Gamez is “excited” about the addition of infielder Kate Peterson from Sandy, Utah; pitcher/outfielder Lisa Wangler from Mesa, Ariz.; and outfielder Kristi Hall fo Elk Grove, Calif. Brett Williams Continued from Page 5 Pac-lO). With a win, the Wildcats will be basking in the Hawaii sun during Christmas Break preparing for the Aloha Bowl, a far cry from Arizona’s national championship talk preceding the season. Don’t get me wrong, the Sun Devils aren’t Hula dancing for joy about their chances to leave the mainland either. But should they be? Arizona State was in contention for the league championship for most of the season, despite a terri ble nonconference performance. A 35-7 loss to New Mexico State was one of the most embarrassing home performances in Sun Devil history, and Arizona State’s dismembering at the hands of Notre Dame left this reporter wondering if it could lay claim to the Pac-10 cellar with league olay barely underway. Somehow, the Sun Devils rebounded in a r afer ence that was recently deemed the “Pathetic-xO” by Sports Illustrated. This wasn’t the kind of season Arizor xtate head coach Bruce Snyder envisioned. But hr dmits there is a lot on the line when the desert schools play for the 73rd time Saturday. “A win in this game would put a whole different spin on our season,” Snyder said. “It’s bragging rights.” While bragging rights are important, a bowl invita tion is more so, ten-fold. You’ll see the winning coach bare a smile as he leaves the field Saturday because who wouldn’t want a free trip to Hawaii? But you bet ter believe it's bittersweet.

I was stronger, smarter and more prepared.” Hartmann also received All American honors, the first new comer to receive such an award since Matthew Davis in 1994. He was the top American freshman finisher, as two foreign freshmen finished above him. The Ducks’ three All-Ameri cans is their most since 1989. Rounding out Oregon’s finish ers were juniors Michael Kasahun (107th, 32:08), Lincoln Nehring (203rd, 33:30) and freshman Tom Becker (210th, 33:34). “To be candid, this was a mira cle effort,” Smith said. “Every ath lete on the team ran their best in dividual race.

Getting sixth is something to really build off for the future.” On the women’s side, the No. 24 Ducks reached their goal of plac ing in the top 20, finishing tied for 19th with North Carolina State. Leading the way in the 5K race, as she has all fall, was freshman Amy Nickerson (65th, 17:56), who credited running in the Pre NCAA meet as great preparation. “I just went out and tried to run as relaxed as possible and as effi cient as I could,” Nickerson said. “It was nice seeing the course from October because it made it easier to know what to expect.” Finishing behind Nickerson were junior Rhiannon Glenn (84th, 17:56), freshman Tara Struyk (101st, 18:02), junior Katie Crabb (114th, 18:06), fresh man Eri Macdonald (226th, 19:08), senior Lisa Jansen (237, 19:31) and freshman Erinn Gul brandsen (239th, 19:40). Unlike most finales, this one did n’t cause as much reflection and re membrance, but provoked excite ment about the future. “It was hard to know what to expect coming into the season,” head coach Tom Heinonen said. “But they held on and showed a lot of composure. With our youth, we know we can be a lot better in the future.” Virtual Office Systems Inc.
