Dion had a game-high 16 points to go along with three assists, one steal and some clutch shots in Oregon’s 61-57 vic tory on Thursday night. Quotes of the Game “I’m not sure if it’s Stanford or what it is. It’s just kind of * coincidental, it always just ends up being those Bay-A re a teams. ” Lindsey Dion Junior forward from Fresno, Calif. "/ have no idea. We fouled to make her miss, then she missed and we get the ball back — people just stand around. It’s extremely frustrating. The game was a lot more than that, but that was kind of a microcosm.” Tara VanDerveer Stanfordhead coach on her team’s breakdown with 4.1 seconds left “Every garpe at this point is the biggest game. How do you eat * an elephant? One bite at a time. ” Jody Runge, Ducks head coach Best Bet NHL Boston vs. New York 4 p.m., ESPN Ducks best stand-still Cardinal Oregon makes up for last month’s collapse at Stanford by ensuring that the Cardinal pays for its late-game mistake By Scott Pesznecker Oregon Daily Emerald Last month, Stanford embarrassed the Ducks. But last night, the Cardinal (14-6, 7-3 Pa cific-10 Conference) embarrassed itself. Trailing by two points with 4.9 seconds to play, Stanford put Angelina Wolvert at the foul line for a one-and-one penalty. Wolvert was the perfect person to foul. Although she had hit the crucial shot down low to give the Ducks (16-6, 7-3) the lead moments earlier, Wolvert was 4 of 11 Turn to Women’s, page 13 ■ Back in effect, junior Lindsey Dion had a clear headed 16 points to help lead Oregon past Stanford Mirjcim Swanson Lindsey Dion sat in the interview room in the basement of McArthur Court after Oregon’s 61-57 win on Thursday night, happy and headache-free for the first time in a month. If you don’t know, the junior from Fres no, Calif., suffered a concussion at Califor nia on Jan. 13. And so she had to sit and watch the Stanford game two days later—a tough task made excruciatingly tougher be cause of what was happening on the floor. She watched helplessly as her teammates not only completely blew a 26-point first half lead, but ran out of steam, got down and lost by 16. Not at all a typical Ducks’ performance. But then, they were missing Dion. They missed her defensive play at Stan ford (14-6 overall, 7-3 Pac-10), for sure, but what they especially missed were the intangible elements: intelligence, calming floor-presence, that kind of stuff. Turn to Dion, page 13 , Kevin Calame Emerald jenny Mowe and the Ducks reach new heights in avenging last month’s loss. Rowdy crowd plays a role in bringing down Stanford and quieting their smug fans By Jack Clifford Oregon Daily Emerald With 1:59 left in the bas ketball game between Stan ford and Oregon, the Ducks led 57-55 and the pep band began playing “Rocky” to incite fans in attendance at McArthur Court. They should’ve offered up Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive” for the Oregon players, because that’s ex actly what the, women’s team did in pulling out a 61 57 win, sending the crowd into a bit of a frenzy. An understandable reac tion since this was Stanford, the renowned Stanford — arguably the team that has become Oregon’s biggest ri val in women’s basketball. “Because Stanford has al ways been a national con tender and we want to be at that level, we have to beat them,” Oregon graduate Danielle Martwick said dur ing halftime, when the Ducks led 30-25. Crowd noise no doubt played a factor in the final 20 minutes, especially near the end when a supposedly Turn to Crowd, page 11 Stanford controls UO from start to finish Oregon falls for the 13th straight time in Palo Alto, Calif., and falls two games from first place By Jeff Smith Oregon Daily Emerald Oregon needed its “A” game. It didn’t have it. Stanford simply needed to play its style of game. And boy did they. The second-ranked team in the country didn’t dis appoint a sold-out Maples Pavilion crowd of 7,391 with an awesome display of its unforgiving defense and explosive offense. The Cardinal’s Mark Madsen won the opening tap and scored on the opening possession with a powerful rebound basket. The hard-nosed forward gave Stanford (20-1 overall, 9-1 Pacific-10 Conference) a lead it wouldn’t relin quish in a wire-to-wire 76 6 victory over the No. 24 Ducks (16-5, 7-3). “They’re the No. 2 team in the nation for a reason because they’re an excel lent basketball team,” Ore gon head coach Ernie Kent said on KUGN. ‘-They don’t allow you to play your ‘A’ game unless you really, really come up to their level.” The win is Stanford’s eighth, in a row over Ore gon and eighth in a row on the season. Its only loss came at home against Ari zona, a team who they are currently tied with for first in what appears to now be a two-way race for the Turn to Men’s, page 14
