Wrestling continued from page 11A I matches and sent three competi- * tors to the National Champi- 1 onships. “I feel real good about it,” 1 Kearney said. “We had some f young wrestlers who made some 1 phenomenal gains. One of the 1 bench-marks you look at as a 1 wrestler is getting 20 wins in a season and we had a bunch of freshmen do that.” Some of the newcomers that impressed Kearney and his staff were freshmen Jake Leair, Eric Webb, and Tony Overstake, along with sophomore Eugene Harris. Leair, a true freshman, boasted a season record of 20-15, tied for the third-highest win total on the team. Kearney points to his suc cess as one of the biggest im provements on the team. Webb, who tied Leair in wins with a 20-12 record, was another bright spot for the team. Junior college transfer Eugene Harris was second only to Doug Lee in wins at 23-11 and made his first appearance at the National Championships. “You can’t say enough about he strides that Eric has made,” Cearney said. “Eugene also did a ;ood job for us. You look at all hose guys as first-year guys and hey did a great job for us.” One person that Kearney and lis staff needed to continue his »reat wrestling is Doug Lee. The wo-time Pacific-10 Conference :hampion and All-American urned in what has become a typ cal season for him, posting a 27 } record and going undefeated hrough 17 matches. Lee’s leadership helped some af the younger grapplers perform at a high level all season, allow ing the Ducks to win matches that they probably should not have won. Two victories in par ticular were wins over Fresno State (ranked No. 25 at the time) and Brigham Young. “One of the things that great teams do is win matches that they shouldn’t,” Kearney said. “ We had at least two of those this year. Against BYU, Doug steps up and gets a technical fall, Eugene gets a pin,” Kearney said. “And against Fresno State, top to bot tom, our kids came out and lost only two individual matches. Those were our signs that we are on our way.” At the Pac-10 Championships, Oregon had a hiccup along the road to becoming a great team. The Ducks could have sent five or six wrestlers to nationals, but only three qualified to go. “Our guys wrestled at Pac-lOs and we had flashes of brilliance,” Kearney said. “But at tourna ment-time you can’t have physi cal or mental lapses. It is hard to fault them because they worked so hard. Brian Watson misses six weeks and comes back and loses at the end in the finals on tie breaker. In Eric Webb and Tony Overstake, if we could re-wrestle six seconds between the two of them, we’d have two more quali fiers.” The Ducks made some big strides this season, and with sen ior Chael Sonnen returning from his stint with the Olympic team, the Ducks will be poised to make a run at the conference title. “We want to be in the title hunt here in Eugene,” Kearney said. “Instead of one All-Ameri can, we want four or five kids placing, which would give a top ten position at nationals.” tmeraia The Oregon wrestling squad is looking forward to a future title-hunt in Eugene.
