Golf teams eighth in preseason tournaments I ■The Oregon women try to fight the rain in Washington, while the men can’t find their rhythm down in California By Peter Hockaday Oregon Daily Emerald The Oregon women’s golf team ha had its recent tournaments can celed by rain, disrupted by rain and shortened by rain. Now the Ducks have suffered their first baseball-style rain delay, and the results were, once again, as ugly as yesterday’s gray skies. After the first round of the Edean Ihlanfeldt Invitational in Redmond, Wash., the Ducks stand eighth of 17 teams. The tournament was delayed for almost three hours because of the rain. Oregon’s fight with mother nature has now stretched on for four tour naments. At the NCAA Champi onships in Sunriver last May, the Ducks dropped from third to 11th on the final wind-swept day. This season, the Ducks opened at the NCAA Preview in Florida and en countered Hurricane Gordon, which cut the tournament short and left Oregon with a 19th-place finish. The Mary Fossum Invitational two weeks ago in East Lansing, Mich., was also shortened, and the Ducks ended up ninth out of 15 teams. Senior Claire Hunter and freshman Katharina Schallenberg lead Oregon. Both golfers are tied for 15th place. The Edean Ihlanfeldt Invitation al is being played at the Sahalee Country Club, the beautiful course that hosted the PGA Champi onships in 1998. Meanwhile, the Oregon men’s golf team is not fighting the storm clouds, but is fighting a tough field at the Pepperdine Intercollegiate. The Ducks find themselves in eighth place after two 18-hole rounds at the Saticoy Country Club in Oxnard, California. Oregon had been in fourth after one round, but a second-round score of 302 dropped them down. If the Ducks don’t crack the top-five today, it will be the first time in the young season that they failed to do so. But Oregon continues to get strong individual performances from differ ent team members. After sophomore Chris Carnahan’s win at the North west Classic and newcomer John El lis’ individual crown at the Husky In vitational, junior Aaron Byers could become the Ducks’ third straight indi vidual winner at the Pepperdine In tercollegiate. Byers is in sixth place, five strokes behind leader John Mallinger of Long Beach State. The men will conclude their play today with one 18-hole round, while the women will play two rounds over the next two days in Washington. NX Mets are'relieved'they aren't facing Atlanta I By Josh Dubow The Associated Press NEW YORK — The New York Mets are providing a bulletin-board material for the St. Louis Cardinals. The Mets aren’t shy about express ing their preference for playing St. Louis instead of their nemesis, At lanta, in the NL championship series. “I was a little relieved,” reliever Turk Wendell said of Atlanta being eliminated. “That is a team that men tally puts a lot of pressure on other teams. It puts pressure on guys to think that they have to be perfect.” New York has been far from it against Atlanta. The Mets are 14-29 against Atlanta the past three seasons, including a loss in last year’s NLCS. And while the champagne was spraying throughout the New York clubhouse Sunday after eliminating San Francisco in four games, the Mets were happy not to have to an swer questions about why Atlanta spooks them. “Nothing derogatory against them, but I’m glad to see them lose,” first baseman Todd Zeile said. "This team has not had much success against them. But I don’t think any body really cares who we’re play ing, as long as we’re there. ” The Mets are 26-10 against the Car dinals, so it is easy to understand why the Mets are relieved they are opening the best-of-seven NLCS Wednesday night in St. Louis instead of in Atlanta. Mike Hampton (15-11) is expect ed to get the start for New York against St. Louis' Darryl Kile (21-9). There was some talk that a trip to the World Series would be cheap ened for the Mets because they don’t have to go through Atlanta to do it. The players don’t buy into it. “We can’t control what other teams do,” said Bobby J. Jones, who pitched a one-hitter to clinch the division se ries. “We control the New York Mets. We’ve got a ballgame that we have to win and that we have to worry about. We go about it like that. ” The New York-Atlanta rivalry has n’t died down even though Atlanta is out of the playoffs. Third baseman Chipper Jones, one of the most hated Atlanta players at Shea Stadium, said he didn’t care who won the NL pen nant — as long as it wasn’t New York. The Mets have similar opinions about Atlanta. “We held up our end of the bar gain,” outfielder Darryl Hamilton said. “Anybody with any type of brain thought Atlanta was the team to beat. They may be. But we’re still going to play St. Louis.” The Cardinals head into their first NLCS in four years well rested, hav ing swept Atlanta on Saturday. The Mets took an extra day to eliminate the Giants, but both teams have their pitching rotations set up perfectly. St. Louis also has the momentum of a three-game sweep — all won in the final at-bat—against the Mets that started New York’s September swoon. “The Cardinals are not going to be pushovers,” said setup man John Franco, who was injured during that series. “If they play us the way they play Atlanta, it will be a tough series.” Call (541)3464343 or stop by Room 300 Erb Memorial Union to place your ad today.
