State] is not a great team,” Gamez
said. “But they can be a very
good team.
“We’re gonna make sure that
we play aggressive, we’re gonna
try not to allow them to stay in
the ball game. Because if you al
low them to stay in the ball game,
they’ll stay in the ball game long
enough to beat you. And hopeful
ly we’ve learned.”
Oregon is coming off a tough
weekend road trip. The Ducks
dropped two of three in the
desert, losing first to No. 2 Ari
zona on Friday and then bounc
ing back for a convincing 10-0
win against Arizona State on Sat
urday, before falling to the Sun
Devils 7-3 on Sunday.
So a strong performance
against Portland State is of added
importance because it would fig
ure to help Oregon heading into
its conference home opener Fri
day afternoon against No. 3
UCLA.
“We’re gonna go out and play
hard, make sure we get it done,”
Gamez said.
The Vikings are playing their
first season as a member of the
WAC. Until this season they
competed independent of any
conference.
Offensively, they’re led by
freshman catcher Erin Newlean,
who is hitting above .350.
In the same category, the Ducks
are led by Triawn Custer, whose
average is .431. And after an out
standing performance in Ari
zona, Phoenix-native Christi
Shleton was named Pac-10 Play
er of the week. The sophomore
clocked two home runs and had
six RBIs in three games. Senior
second baseman Jill Robinson is
hitting .382 in addition to having
hit a team-leading 10 home runs.
Sophomore Connie McMurren
(9-9) is Oregon’s top pitcher with
a 2.74 earned average.
Senior Danielle Haag has ap
peared in 11 games and has an
ERA of 1.84, while freshman An
drea Vidlund holds an ERA of
2.76 through 18 games of work.
“We just want to make sure
that we stay sharp,” Gamez said.
