Bolota Asmeron.
Also expected to run this week
end is junior Adam Bergquist, who
has settled into Oregon’s No. 3 spot
after sitting out last year. Senior
Sam Hill, who has experience in
championship races and placed
32nd at last year’s conference meet,
is also entered.
Stanford comes into the meet
ranked third in the nation. No. 10
Arizona is also a contender.
The rest of Oregon’s entrants are
freshmen, making the Duck lineup
one of the youngest in school history.
Brett Holts has been the biggest
surprise so far. The Bend native
won the Bearcat Open earlier this
season and has competed with fel
low freshman John Lucas for the
No. 4 spot on the team. Lucas has
also been a pleasant surprise, plac
ing 66th at the Roy Griak Invitation
al and 122nd at the Pre-NCAA meet.
Blue-chip recruit Noel Paulson
rounds out the Oregon contingent.
“This team is very young,” Smith
said. “They’re doing a nice job and

The conference championships
will take place at Lincoln Park in

campus. The men’s 10,000-meter
race begins at 12:15 p.m.

greater chance in getting to nation
als.” Heinonen said.
The Ducks come into the meet
ranked fifth among Pac-10 schools
behind Stanford, Arizona State,
Washington and Arizona.
Senior Hanna Smedstad, who
has been the most successful in ad
justing to the new distance, leads
the Ducks into competition.
Other than Smedstad, the Oregon
team is mostly middle distance run
ners in track. Senior Katie Crabb
and sophomores Eri MacDonald
and Erinn Gulbrandsen are all 800
meter specialists. Senior Rhiannon
Glenn is more versatile, but still fa
vors the 1,500 meters. Freshmen
Laura Harmon and Annette Mosey
both ran the 1,500 and 3,000 meters .
in high school. Despite the jump in
distances, Heinonen is pleased
with the change.
“We think 6k is a good distance '
for us,” Heinonen added. “We just
have to show it in competition. ”

blocks per game is the best in the
conference.
“UCLA is really playing well
right now,” Ferreira said of the
Bruins’ four-match winning streak.
“They’ve elevated their level of
play tremendously.”
USC (17-1, 10-1) hit a school
record .556 against Oregon Sept.
30. Junior blocker Jennifer Pahl led
the Women of Troy with a .769
clip (including 10 kills) in the
sweep. USC led Oregon in aces (6
1), digs (37-19) and blocks (5-0),
and held the Ducks to a .193 hit
ting percentage.
In that meeting, though, the Tro
jans were forced to make a key de
fensive adjustment to stop the
Ducks’ 4-2 Flex offense.
“We’re are going to continue to
focus on all of the problems that
that system causes,” Tobbagi said.
With the momentum of last
weekend’s victories and home
court advantage, Ferreira believes
the Ducks should have a legitimate
shot at pulling off a huge upset.
Soccer
continued from page 5A
Ducks should carry onto the field
this weekend, expressed by Baysa
and her teammates in practice this
week, is something the team has
been lacking recently.
“We’re trying to work on intense
drills,” Oregon head coach Bill Stef
fen said after practice Tuesday. “We
want to develop the habit of playing
that way all the time, whenever we
We play with intensity
for 10 minutes, then go
down again. I think we
have to maintain that
intensity fora whole
game.
Ann Westermark ^
freshman forward Ti
step on the field.”
Freshman forward Ann Wester
mark thinks the Ducks are ready for
this weekend’s matches, as long as
they can win the mental game.
“We play with intensity for 10
minutes, then go down again,”
Westermark said. “I think we have
tc maintain that intensity for a
whole game.”
“If we just come out with intensi
ty, and play for the whole 90 min
utes, we’ll be fine,” Baysa said.
The Ducks shouldn’t be hard
pressed to get up for either game this
weekend. Washington comes into
Sunday’s match ranked second in
the country, for good reason. The
Huskies lost one game, a 5-0 embar
rassment to No. 1 Notre Dame in
September. Since that game, Wash
ington is 9-0, outscoring their oppo
nents 22-5 over that stretch.
The Huskies have taken out their
most important Pac-10 foes along
the way, and could be on cruise con
trol for the rest of the conference
schedule. Washington beat No. 6
California, No. 8 UCLA, No. 15
Southern California and No. 18
Stanford by a combined 5-1 score.
Now, the Huskies have only Oregon
State, Oregon and Washington State
left on their schedule.
“Both Washington schools are
quality programs,” Steffen said.
Washington State, the Ducks’ op
ponent today, could win the Pac-lO’s
“dark horse” award. The Cougars
have dropped close games to Califor
nia, Stanford and USC — all by one
goal — and beaten both Arizona
schools. Washington State’s only Pac
10 blow-out came against UCLA,
which beat the Cougars 4-0.
“These are quality teams, but
that’s what we’ve prepared against,”
Steffen said.
Sunday’s match will be the
Ducks’ ninth against a current top
25 team. Oregon has taken on two
top-10 teams, No. 5 North Carolina
and No. 10 Portland. The Ducks
have not beaten a top-25 team this
year, but did upset then-No. 20
UCLA late last season.
The Ducks will play Washington
State today, starting at 3 p.m. on Pape
Field, while Sunday’s game with
Washington will kick off at 1 p.m.
