Basketball continued from page 1 who receive scholarships for their positions, travel with the team to away games and make sure play ers bring everything they need. While Poehler and McElhany are familiar with Mac Court, Poehler said finding their way around at road games can be chal lenging, especially because the team expects them to lead the way. “They kind of expect you to know everything about the place that you are at,” Poehler said. They are also responsible for making sure visiting teams have access to Mac Court for practice, even when a team decides to prac tice at a time when McElhany and Poehler would rather be in bed. “You just pray that they don’t practice at 7 a.m. in the morning,” Poehler said. Assistant coach Fred Litzen berger said Poehler and McEl hany make practice and games pos sible because they are ready to step in and help out in every situation. “Without them, we couldn’t run the program,” he said. He said most program assis tants’ jobs are limited to setting up practice equipment, but McEl hany and Poehler are able to step on the court if necessary and help with passing and rebounds. “They may be the most valu able people in our program,” Litzenberger said. McElhany said she applied for the position last spring because she has always been excited about the Ducks’ basketball teams. She played basketball herself in fourth and fifth grades and has come to see the Ducks play ever since she was seven years old. Poehler was a former college basketball player and coach and took the assistant job last fall in hopes of pursuing a career in coaching. She hopes to gain valu able experience working with the team, while getting her master’s degree at the same time. PFC continued from page 1 posed by the ASUO programs.
