Ask about his teammates, and the sen ior lights up like a firecracker. “[Chrisl Carnahan is one of the best smart golfers I’ve ever seen. He never gets away from his game plan,” Lavoie says. “TJ [Duncan]’s been in the trenches, he knows every situation there is to play in. [Aaron] Byers is one of the best talents I’ve seen.” But perhaps the most praise is reserved for Lavoie’s co-captain, senior Andrew Tredway. “We feed off each other,” Lavoie said of Tredway. “He’s a great player. I think we work well together.” Both captains realize that the season only has two tournaments left, and only one if the Ducks don’t finish ninth or better at the NCAA West Regionals in Fresno, Calif., which start today. Both want desperately to extend their last season as Ducks to Auburn, Ala., site of the NCAA Champi onships May 31 - June 3. “I definitely want to get back to the NCAAs,” Tredway said. “We just have to go take care of busi ness this week.” Taking care of business in Fres no may be easier than it sounds. The No.19 Ducks will face top competition at the regionals. Eight top-25 teams, including No. 5 Ari zona State with freshman sensa tion Paul Casey, will play in the tournament. The top nine finish ers advance to the NCAAs. But if you talk to the Ducks, Probably, there's more pressure on Ryan than the other boys because I think his teammates expect him to p lay well. Steve Nosier head coach yy they exude confidence about the regionals. “I don’t think we’ve nearly reached our potential as far as where we are,” Nosier said. “We’ve got our best golf ahead of us,” Lavoie said. “I think we can raise some eyebrows.” Ryan Lavoie has been raising eyebrows since he arrived on campus four years ago. Now he just needs to raise two more things — the West Regionals tro phy and the NCAA Champi onships trophy. But even if he did win both in dividual titles, he probably wouldn’t tell you about it.
