will switch positions with junior Leif
Williams atl65andl74 pounds.
“Luke is very tough and very tal
ented,” Kearney said. “His ability to
make the transition and adjustment
to the college level will determine a
lot, but he’s somebody that we are
looking to wrestle this season. ”
Other projected starters include
four sophomores. Brian Watson
will wrestle at 133 pounds, Casey
Hunt at 141 pounds, Tony Over
stake at 149 pounds and Eric Webb

The Ducks were then able to cap
italize on four Husky errors to win
game three, 16-14, on a Mazza kill.
“I loved the way we handled
those big moments. It showed great
maturity,” Ferreira said. “If you’re
afraid of these big moments, you’re
not going to be a good competitor.”
The Ducks host Washington
State tonight at 7 p.m. in the final
home game of the season.
“We’re looking for a sweep,” said
Murphy, who finished the match

A group of hard-working
volleyball players play
ing their hearts out in
front of their faithful fans
is always nice to see.
But feeling the energy that
bounced off the rafters from the
872 fans (it felt like more) down
to the Ducks on the floor was
something else.
The game sure didn’t look like a
match between two Pacific-10
Conference cellar dwellers.
On one side were the Washing
ton Huskies, who battled back
from behind in the first game to
win 15-11 and take the 1-0 lead.
On the other, there were the al
ways-fighting Ducks, who have
persevered through a season in
which it would have been easy to
rollover and die.
But the only killing taking place
on this night came at the hands of
Oregon’s spike-sensation
Monique Tobbagi. Tobbagi was, as
ESPN’s Dan Patrick would say,
en fuego. Sometimes she can
get a little too excited and send
her spikes into the crowd. But on
this night, she was money. So
money, in fact, that she recorded a
career-high 28 kills.
When she gets in that zone, it is
recommended to get out of the
way as fast as you can.
Tobbagi’s kills helped fuel the
Ducks to a 15-12 victory in the

second game. Then came the al
ways-important third game, in
which the teams traded points for
awhile before the Huskies took
the 14-12 lead.
Timeout, Oregon.
Head coach Carl Ferreira must
have said just the right thing, be
cause his Ducks tied it up, took
the lead and held on for the 16-14
win and the crucial 2-1 lead.
From there, the spirit of the mo
ment helped carry Oregon past its
Northwest rival in the fourth
game, ensuring its first Pac-10
home victory on the year.
“We knew we should have won
when we played them at Wash
ington and we wanted to show
that tonight,” Tobbagi said.
The Ducks certainly did that,
and now they get the opportunity
to close out their 2000 home sea
son with a second consecutive
win tonight against Washington
State.
As you watched the players hug
each other after the game, you had
to feel good for them. Their record
may still only be 10-14 overall,
and 2-13 in the Pac-10, but on this
one night, none of that mattered.
The Ducks beat the Huskies. The
fans, who had been there all season,
were rewarded with a win.
And the Oregon volleyball pro
gram was given a big confidence
boost that it can take with them
through the remainder of this sea
son and into the next, as coach
Ferreira’s journey toward success
keeps rolling along.

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 10). Looks like
a good year to clean house. Something's lost, but
more is gained if you do it right. Mum's the
word in November. You're in for surprises in De
cember, and a few of them are treasures. It's OK
to disrupt things in February; in fact it's neces
sary. Tell it like it is in May, but listen, too.
Something you thought would be there isn't in
June. You'll find something better by July. It
may not all be done by October, but you're well
underway to creating your masterpiece.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10
is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)—Today isa6 —
The money you'd planned to spend on one thing
may be needed for something else. Use your ex
perience, rather than a friend's advice, to figure
this one out. Remember a similar situation in
your past and do what worked.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)—Today is a 7 —
Things aren't working out as easily as expected.
You're determined that you know best, but oth
ers aren't easily convinced. Use facts, along with
your natural stubbornness. You can win them
over to your side.
GEMINI (May 21-June21)—Today is a 5 —
You're too busy to travel, but don't worry. If it
hadn't been that, it would have been something
else. Reschedule the trip for later. Sunday's your
best bet. You can get a lot done through other
means — and other people. Delegate.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) — Today is an 8
—You're a generous person, but you don't have
to give all your money away. If you hear from
another worthy cause, take care. Go through
your budget, and only give what you can afford.
Put your own home and family first.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5 —
Every time you turn around, you'll meet with
criticism. Everybody has comments on what
you should do next, but don't complain. Listen,
instead, and take notes. If you do that, they won't
repeat themselves as often. That will be a bless
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sepc. 22)—Today is a 7 —
Don't bother scheduling a luncheon date. You
won't have much free time until next week. Put
that on your answering machine and then turn
off your phone's ringer. That'll give you the
peace and quiet you need to concentrate.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 6 —
Your sweetheart or partner could be in a tizzy
about money, and this makes your life difficult.
Work out a budget that you can both live with.
You have a broader perspective right now. Your
friend can't see outside the box.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7
— A roommate has plans for this weekend that
involve you and your home. Are you launching
into a new project? Better not to invite friends
over for dinner until at least Sunday. There's li
able to be too big a mess before then.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is
a 5 — Something you're trying at work could
fall flat. You may have received faulty informa
tion. Conditions will be better for fixing things
next week. Try not to get stressed over some
thing that's not working right. Deep breaths,
OK?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is
an 8 — Buying nice gifts for the people you
love is one of your favorite things to do. But, are
you being realistic? Overspending isn't a good
way to show somebody you care. It doesn't
work all that well. Think of something else.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 5
— Something isn't going well at home. It's up
setting and may have you confused. Don't be too
hard on yourself. An older person can help. That
person may have been trying to tell you what to
do for ages. Just do it and stop arguing.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8
— You're strong, while others are having all
sorts of problems. They're liable to come to you
for help making decisions. Advise diem to go
over the material one more time. They'll solve
their own problems, and you'll look wise.
