Well, they’re almost warm, and senior Ryan Lavoie is positively hot. The Ducks got a good perform ance from Lavoie, who finished ninth overall, but the rest of the team was unable to come back from a poor first round and Oregon ended up fourth. Despite being the high est-seeded team going into the U.S. Intercollegiate, Oregon shot an opening round 300, then two rounds of 289 to drop from sev enth to fourth on Sunday. Senior co-captain Lavoie, ranked 38th in the nation, contin ued to shine for the Ducks, shoot ing two even-par rounds, then a four-over 75 in the final round. Lavoie continued his statistical leadership of the team, which he has lead in scoring at seven of 12 tournaments this year. The Pasco, Wash., native achieved an Oregon milestone Friday when he became just the third Duck in 21 years to earn first fF7' team all Pacific-10 Conference honors. Lavoie was the only non Arizona school golfer to be named to the five-man team, joining Ari zona State’s Paul Casey, Matt Jones and Jeff Quinney, as well as Arizona’s Ricky Barnes and Derek •Gillespie for the honors. Oregon freshman Chris Carna han, who held the Ducks’ second best stroke average at 74 before the U.S. Intercollegiate, received an honorable mention for all Pac 10 honors. Carnahan finished 46th at last weekend’s tourna ment. Other finishers for Oregon at the Stanford tournament were senior co-captain Andrew Tred way, who finished in 24th; junior T.J.

No. 37 California won the U.S. Intercollegiate by one stroke over No. 46 Pepperdine. The Golden Bears won the Stanford-hosted tournament behind the play of 74th-ranked Han Lee, who won the individual title by two strokes. Unranked Portland University finished third, six strokes ahead of Oregon. Only five top-50 teams played in the 18-team field in Palo Alto, and the Ducks only man aged to beat two of those.
