Ducks' seasons are finished
■ Both the men’s and
women’s teams suffer
defeats in the first round of
the NCAA Tournament
By Robbie McCallum
for the Emerald
After coming so far and surviv
ing through so much adversity,
both Oregon tennis teams were
struck down in the first round of
the NCAA tournament. The Ducks
faced long odds in both tourna
ment matches, and their oppo
nents lived up to expectations.
The Oregon women were
sXvept 5-0 by Mississippi State in
Tempe, Ariz., while the men lost
4-0 at Fresno State.
Senior Guillermo Carter will
have two more matches in a Duck
uniform, as he’ll take part in the
NCAA individual champi
onships, while Oregon’s other
two seniors, Joaquin Hamdan and
Alina Wygonowska, have fin
ished their collegiate careers.
Mississippi State’s depth
proved to be too much for the No.
50 women’s team. The Bulldogs
swept the No. 2 through 5 singles
matches, all in
straight sets.

cause the contest had already
been decided.
“Mississippi State was just a
better team than us today," head
coach Jack Griffin said in a re
leased statement. “Our girls
fought hard, but they out played
us in every match.”
In the second round of tourna
ment play, Mississippi State was
defeated 5-0 by Pacific-10 confer
ence foe Arizona State.
The Ducks fell to 8-15 on the
year. The NCAA appearance was
Oregon’s second straight and third
in school history, all under Griffin.
“We’re happy to have made the
NCAA's three out of the last four
years but we have a lot of work
ahead of us,” Griffin said. “It was a
great experience for us to be here
and hopefully we can build on it.”
The men faced a similar fate as
the women — but against a higher
ranked opponent. The contest
was also suspended mid-way be
cause Fresno State had already
clinched the match.
The No. 24 team of Carter and
freshman Leslie Eisinga lost a
tough match to the No. 21 team of
Andy Scorteanu and Rob Cheyne,
8-6. The Bulldogs clinched the
doubles point on Olivier Le Jeune
and Nick Fustar’s win over junior
David Becker and Hamdan.
After Carter and Hamdan lost,
Fresno State needed only
Scorteanu’s 6-4, 6-3 win over
freshman Oded Teig to clinch the
victory. Sophomore Thomas
Schneiter, Becker and Eisinga’s
matches were suspended.
Oregon women make NCAA cut
■The women’s golf team
used a good final round to
qualify for the NCAA
Championships
By Peter Hoekaday
for the Emerald
The Oregon women’s golf team
could have folded under the pres
sure, but a late charge at the
NCAA West Regionals in Tempe,
Ariz., Saturday put the Ducks in
the NCAA Championships for
only the sixth time ever.
Needing to finish 11th or better
at the Karsten Golf Course to ex
tend its season, Oregon was 10th
after two rounds. But after the fi
nal round Saturday, when the
Ducks shot their lowest score of
the tournament, they stood sev
enth and earned a trip to the
NCAA Championships in Sunriv
er May 24-27.
“They played their hearts out,”
head coach Renee Baumgartner
said. “All our hard work is paying
off at the right time.”
Oregon managed to finish
ahead of nine higher-ranked op
ponents despite lacking a top-20
individual finisher. The Ducks’
best were senior Anika Heuser
and junior Jerilyn White, who fin
ished tied for 21st.
No. 80 in the country, White
continued to lead the Ducks in
scoring. The Salem native has led
Oregon in both postseason tour
naments it has played. White re
covered from a first-round 77 on
the par-72 Arizona State course
and shot two-over par for the final
two rounds, including a birdie
and an eagle on the final two
holes.
Notably missing the NCAA
Championships cut were No. 9
Oklahoma State, No. 10 New
Mexico State, No. 14 UCLA and
No. 16 New Mexico. In the Pacif
