Ducks humbled in Civil War loss ■ OSU claims in-state supremacy in Oregon’s 24-13 loss at Macr Court By Brett Williams Oregon Daily Emerald In last season’s Civil War losses the Oregon wrestling team felt it was robbed. This year the Ducks were simply outmatched. Oregon had multiple forfeits which left them on the losing end against the Beavers twice last sea son, but Oregon partook in every match in Oregon State’s 24-13 Civ il War victory Friday night. There were other differences in this year’s match as well. The Ducks’ lineup was dominated by. youth, with only two of Oregon’s 10 wrestlers having any prior Civil War experience. According to Oregon head* coach Chuck Kearney, the Ducks’ lack of experience hurt them throughout the match. “In a situation like this, the little things show up throughout the match,” Kearney said. Jason Harless was one Oregon wrestler who had a breakthrough match. Harless, a true freshman from Bonanza, made the most of his first Civil War, beating Oregon State’s Nathan Navarro 5-3 to start a Duck rally. “My main goal was to go out there with the mental attitude that I wasn’t going to take into consid eration who I was wrestling,” said Harless, who was a three-time Oregon state champion in high school. “I thought of him as just another guy oflt there wrestling.” Kearney was impressed with Harless’ composure. “Jason wrestled against a third year college kid who is nationally ranked,” Kearney said. “That was fantastic wrestling. In our minds he is the outstanding wrestler of the meet.” After Harless’ win cut Oregon State’s lead to 10-6, the Ducks’ Bri an Watson edged the Beavers’ Ben Richards 4-2 and the Ducks found them selves with a one point deficit. “Brian wres tled like a sur geon, cutting away pieces and then battling through,” Kearney said. “He did the job for us today.” His brother, David, wasn’t as fortunate. David lost 6-2 at 141 pounds, but Oregon’s Tony Over stake tied the meet at 13-13 after disposing of his opponent 13-3. From there-on-out, Oregon State closed the books on any chance of a Ducks.’ upset. The Beavers won at 157,165 and 174 pounds for the final margin. Kearney said he expected Ore gon’s Eugene Harris to put up a better fight against the Beavers’ Eric Jorgenson, who is ranked fourth in the nation and has won eighteen straight matches. “Eugene knew [Jorgenson] was tough on top, but I was surprised he was rode dominantly,” said Kearney about Harris, who was shut out 7-0. “It’s typical of a ju nior college transfer, because he’s inexperienced. Eugene should have been able to compete, but Jor genson forced his style on him.” All Ways Travel • Winter Specials • New York - $198.00* Bangkok -$558.00* Nadi, Fiji - $599.00* Auckland -$699.00* ♦tax not included, restrictions may apply.
