I Golf heads south
for tough tourney
■ Oregon prepares for stiff
competition in USC’s
Cleveland Southwest
Intercollegiate tournament
By Peter Hockaday
for the Emerald
The men’s golf team looks
ahead to yet more blue skies and
green greens this week as the
Ducks travel to California for the
Cleveland Southwest Intercolle
giate.
The tournament, hosted by
Southern California, will be
played at the North Ranch Coun
try Club in Westlake Village today
and Tuesday.
The season just doesn’t get any
easier for the Ducks, who two
weeks ago competed in the Taylor
Made/Waikoloa Intercollegiate
Tournament in Hawaii. The tour
nament boasted 10 of the nation’s
top 30 schools, and this week the
Ducks will face nine top-30 teams
in the 14-team field.
Oregon is ranked 46th in the
nation according to Golfweek’s
rankings, but it could move up
considerably with a good show
ing at the Southwest Tournament
because of the strong field partici
pating.
Five Oregon golfers are com
peting, including senior co-cap
tains Ryan Lavoie and Andrew
Tredway. Lavoie finished eighth
at the Southwest in 1997.
Sophomore Brandon Harnden,
juniors Matt Genovese and T.J.
Duncan, who hasn’t played in a
tournament since September,
round out the team.
Seven Pacific-10 Conference
teams are competing in the tour
nament. No. 8 Arizona State, No.
12 Stanford, host No. 16 USC and
No. 21 Washington head the list.
Oregon State and UCLA are also
slated to play.
The two-day, 54-hole tourna
ment begins today with 36 holes.
I Sports brief

Oregon two-sport athletes led

onships. Football players Sammy

Terry Ellis came in third in the
55-meter hurdles, as John Bello

of the indoor season with a throw
of 57-5 1/2, good for second place
in the shot put.

ly finished eighth in the long
jump, and freshman Jenny Brog
don claimed ninth in the high
