UO in must-win situation ■The Oregon men’s tennis team needs a win in its final home match to qualify for the NCAA tournament By Robbie McCalium for the Emerald Facing elimination can bring the best out in a team. Needing a win in its final con ference match of the season to qualify for the NCAA tourna ment, the Oregon men's tennis team is backed into a corner. The No. 55 Ducks are having their best Pacific-10 Conference season in school history, but it will all mean nothing should the team fail to reach the NCAAs. On April 7, Oregon earned its first Pac-10 win in more than five years. Two days later, the Ducks made it two in a row for the first time ever. Saturday, the Ducks’ post-season fate will be decided when No. 28 Washington conies to town. The two teams have identical 2-4 con ference records and so the winner of tomorrow’s match will earn fourth place in the Pac-1() outright. “[The match] has big implica tions and our guys are aware of that,” head coach Chris Russell said. The two teams tangled earlier this season on April 2, with Wash ington prevailing in Seattle, 4-3. “The guys had them in a bat tle,” Russell said. “It was the clos est we'd come to beating Wash ington in a long time. We have to be tougher mentally and really finish our matches." Home field advantage was a major factor in the earlier match. “It was a very vocal crowd fin Seattle!," Russell said. “If we can plug in the crowd thing and get that intensity, that will be a big help.” The match will be the fourth time this season that the teams have faced each other. The Ducks and Huskies participated in two presea son tournaments in the Northwest. Since the April 2 matchup, both teams have fallen to the Los Ange les schools. On April 7, Washing ton lost to Ari zona State, a team Oregon defeated 5-2. Leading the Ducks into ac tion will he streaking sen iors Guillermo Carter and Joaquin Ham dan. Carter continues his month-long stay in the ITA rankings at No. 45 while Hamdnn has won seven out of his last nine matches to push his overall record to 18-11. A freshman duo also give the Ducks a boost. Oded Teig and Leslie Eisinga are first and third among the team in total wins. Sophomore Thomas Schneiter has made several appearances in the national rankings this season. Washington counters with No. 98 freshman Matt Hanlin, who de feated Carter earlier this season.

You could stash away a lot this year, and if you do, you could accrue great wealth. Why not? Couldn't happen to a nicer person. Take a jaunt instead of a voyage in April and save a bundle. Put your budget into writing in May, with a clear goal in mind. By July, you should be able to make another good-sized investment. Do it for the children. Fall in love in September and count your winnings in December. Pass on a friend's crazy scheme next February and take a secret vacation next March.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6 — An opportunity that you thought was over and done with could show up again.
