Mallory kept alive a five-game
hitting streak when he laced a 2-2
pitch to left-field in the bottom of
the first for an RBI single that tied
( ( His game will im
prove at the pace that he
improves on his English.

the game at one. The Ems would
tack on one more run in the first
when Blair Barbier singled home
Mallory and another one in the
second when catcher Yoon-Min
Kweon blasted a solo home run
over the left-field fence.
“Kweon is coming around, but
he still has a lot to work on,” Ems
manager Danny Sheaffer said.
“His game will improve at the
pace that he improves on his Eng
lish. It’s a tough language to loam.”
The starting battery for the Ems
was certainly English-challenged
as Kweon caught foreign pitcher
Jose Cueto, who took the loss (1-3).
Cueto, who is one of only two
returning players from a year ago,
struggled with his control and sur
rendered five earned runs, five
hits, four walks, while striking out
five in his 4 2/3 innings of work.
“He’s a guy that’s going to be a
very good pitcher when he learns
to work both sides of the plate
well,” Sheaffer said.
A key stat to the game was the
base on balls as the Ems issued a
total of seven walks as opposed to
only one given by Everett.
Everett starter Roy Wells (3-1)
didn’t issue any in his six innings
of work as he has only walked
two batters in his last five starts.
Even though the Ems dropped
its first series since an early July tilt
with Yakima, they still find them
selves in first place in the South Di
vision of the Northwest League —
but only a precious half-game
ahead of the Portland Rockies, who
beat Yakima 8-3 Monday night.
Mallory, for one, isn’t just satis
fied with being in first, however.
“It’s all starting to come togeth
er for us and I think we need a
cushion between Portland and
us,” Mallory said. “It’s going to be
a battle and we’ll be ready for it.”
Eugene now gets a must-de
served day off today before it goes
on a five-game road trip to Boise.
It then comes back home next
Monday for a six-game homes
tand that begins with a visit from
those pesky Rockies.

Ryan Jorgensen picked up two hits over the weekend to raise his average to .327, the second-highest mark on the team.
Olympic
continued from page 1
attempts at 7-2 1/2.
“It was cool to be down there,
but it was disappointing,” Boness
said. “It was definitely a step up
from what I’m used to and it only
makes me want to come back
harder next year.”
Boness said that he will have
his third knee surgery within the
next month to get healthy for a
year in which his “whole focus is
to win the national champi
onship.”
“I just wish I was healthy be
cause I really believe that making
the Olympic team was attainable,”
he said. “Once I’m healthy, I’ll be
able to rock and roll next year.”
Reed, competing at nearly the
same time as Boness, also missed
three attempts at the opening
height. Reed’s personal best of 13
5 1/4 was just three inches higher
than the opening height.
Senior Steve Fein was forced to
scratch in the 5,000 due to a calf
injury. The race was scheduled to
be Fein’s last in an Oregon uni
form. Fein’s senior year was
plagued by injury. After earning
All-American honors in each of
the three seasons since transfer
ring from Wisconsin, Fein was
forced to sit out much of the track
season with a sinus infection and
knee and calf problems.
The future looks quite bright for
up-coming Duck Katy Polansky.
The recent high school graduate
set a national prep record in the
javelin with her toss of 174-2,
good enough for sixth place.
Polansky, who will bypass Ore
gon track to walk on and play bas
ketball for Jody Runge’s Ducks
next year, was just inches out of
fifth place and 12 feet out of an
Olympic bid. The 18-year-old
threw in the mid-160 foot range in
her first three throws before un
leashing her personal best.
Also competing in the javelin
was current Duck Karis Howell.
The junior and All-American fin
ished 13th in her qualifying flight
with a throw of 144-7.
Although the event will not be
contested at the Olympics, Lisa
(Karnopp) Nye competed in the
women’s 3,000 meter steeple
chase. The former Duck placed
second in the inaugural race in
10:00.6. The 3,000 steeplechase
will be added to the women’s
event sheet at the World Champi
onships next year.
Some disappointment came to
three former Duck women in the
distances. Annette Peters barely *
missed an Olympic bid in the
10,000 meters, finishing fifth in
32:09. The former American *
record holder missed third place
by less than eleven seconds. Pe
ters also ran in the 5,000 meters,
finishing 10th in 15:37. Melody
Fairchild finished 19th in the
10,000 in 34:12. Milena Glusac
finished 12th in her qualifying
heat of the 5,000 in 16:01.
The Olympic games get kicked
off with the Opening Ceremonies on
September 15 in Sydney, Australia.
