Vidlund has also provided a steady bat for the No. 16 Oregon softball team.
Vidlund
continued from page 9A
n’t realize that coming in.”
Tough conference or not, Vid
lund has had her way with most
of the best hitters in the nation.
She’s amassed a team-best record
of 16-6 and is right behind sopho
more Connie McMurren in earned
run average at 1.93.
She has done it all while mak
ing a transition from a power
pitcher to a finesse-pitcher, a
transformation she has taken on
with the same intensity'that she
used to mow down hitters, said
pitching coach Tom Royder.
“You have to put your ego
aside. I know it’s fun to strike
someone out, but you have to
change your mental approach to
get the same satisfaction out of
getting a ground-ball out. She’s
been working hard at that and has
seen some success.”
Throughout the first half of the
conference slate, Vidlund has bet
tered some great opponents, in
cluding this weekend’s opponent,
No. 10 Stanford. She gave up only
one hit in 2 1/3 innings of work
the last time Oregon met the Car
dinal. According to McMurren,
Vidlund had improved a great
deal from when Stanford saw her
last.
“Lately she’s been keeping her
composure a lot better,” McMur
ren said. “She has always had the
physical tools, she just became
more mentally tough.”
Inside the circle is not the only
place where Vidlund makes her
presence felt. She is also a part
time left fielder and swings a re
spectable bat.
Vidlund has not only reached
the expectations other teammates
and coaches, but she has sur
passed them by far, Royder said.
She has stepped in and provided
a nice two-punch behind staff ace
McMurren, consistently throwing
complete games and holding the
other teams at bay.
Royder says that he sees a
bright future ahead for the fresh
man. And that means that oppo
nents may have their hands full
with Vidlund for the next three
years.
“There were high expectations
for her coming in as the California
Player of the Year,” Royder said.
“And she has met them.
“The exciting thing about An
drea is that she is just beginning
[to show] what she can do at this
level. If she keeps this level of de
velopment up, she can be one oi
the best players to play here.”

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 5). You're al

ate more income, too. In May offer to take on
more responsibility for increased pay. By June
you should have more in your pockets, but
make sure your pockets don't have holes.
Leant a new way to save in July. Don't keep
waiting for true love in September. Speak to
the one you want and make your honorable in
tentions known. A surprise could cost you in
December. Prepare as much as possible. Gen
erating more income around February could be
easy, though.

Getting much to happen the past few days has

Something you've teamed recently will help

ulating.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is
an 8 — Have you played more than usual late
ly? If so, good. It'll keep you young. You may
be up against a deadline again. Does this mean

the weekend? Oh well, it won't be the first
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an
8 — You're probably feeling better. You might

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8
— This weekend is good for staying home,
maybe having a few people over. You also
have chores you'd like to get done. If an older

mise. Spend the extra money for a long phone
call, instead.
