Thunder continued from page 7 A get too choked up over the end of their Oregon careers, there is business to attend to. For the New Zealanders and fellow sen iors Anika Heuser and Angie Riz zo, this marks their last postsea son as Ducks. “We’ll see what happens,” Sowden says, covering her bases on the subject of the Pac-10 Championships, which start on Monday at the Eugene Country Club. “The Arizona teams are among the best in the country, and then USC and Stanford are also pretty tough.” Despite Sowden’s modesty, her manner masks a strong desire to win and a confidence in her teammates. The team has never been in a better position to per form well. “We’ve been having tourna ments all year,” Wilson says. “But these are the finals — both physical and mental.” Head Coach Renee Baumgart ner is in her final year as coach before she focuses solely on her assistant athletic director duties. She has a team, led by Sowden and Wilson, of mostly upper classmen with plenty of experi ence under their belts. Finally, as if the golf gods were shining on them, two of the three postseason tournaments the Ducks could play are in Oregon. Besides the Pac-10 Champi onships next week, the NCAA Championships will be held at Sunriver May 24 through 27. The Ducks need to make the cut at the West Regionals in Tempe, Ariz. May 11 through 13, in order to play in Sunriver. It’s a feat they should accomplish. “We’re just going to go out and play our game, and add it up at the end,” Sowden says of the re gionals, “and hope we get our tickets.” The Auckland natives repre sent two-thirds of the Oregon ros ter with NCAA Tournament ex perience, which will no doubt come in handy down the post season stretch. Heuser is the only other Duck to have played in the NCAAs. It wasn’t all fun and sun for Oregon in Australia last summer. When the Ducks traveled to New Zealand they played a num ber of teams, including the New Zealand National team, which Wilson and Sowden both played for before coming to America. “It was good,” Sowden says about playing her former team. “We were playing for the right team.” That about sums up the cap tains’ views on Oregon. They may be a long way from home, but for the past four years Pam Sowden and Kylie Wilson have been playing for a team they love very much. The right team.
