Sports Brief Women’s cross country team qualifies for NCAA meet After struggling all season, the Oregon women’s cross country team placed fourth at the Western Regional meet on Saturday to earn an at-large berth. The women are ranked No. 22 in the nation. “I’m proud of what we did as a team at Regionals in Fresno last week,” Oregon head coach Tom Heinonen said. However, the tenth-ranked Ore gon men received more disap pointing news. Despite strong per formances all season long and a respectable fourth place finish at regionals, the men were denied an at-large berth. The team will send two individ uals to the national meet. Sopho more All-American Jason Hart mann and senior Michael Kasahun will represent the men’s team. UO starts signing period with a bang ■ Softball and volleyball add prep stars during the first week of signing season By Adam Jude Oregon Daily Emerald It’s a new season for all of the Ore gon sports programs: Signing sea son. Nov. 8 marked the day that high .school seniors could begin signing letters of intent to attend colleges. The Oregon Athletic Department has already got the ball rolling, sign ing five student athletes in the first five days. A southpaw will take the mound Oregon softball coach Rick Gamez signed three players to let ters of intent for the 2002 season. Mari Lyn Petrick, a senior at Glencoe High School in Hillsboro, led the Metro League with a .438 batting average and was an All State catcher last season. The Washington 4A Conference Player of the Year, Ashley Richards (Richland, Wash.), also signed a let ter of intent to play with the Ducks. The catcher/infielder is “very ver satile,” Gamez said. “We’re going to be able to utilize her athletic ability at many positions.” Additionally, Lindsey Kontra, a native of Valencia, Calif., will con tribute for Oregon as a left pitcher. Her 14-under team was crowned the national champion, and she helped lead her 16-under team to a second-place finish nationally. “Lindsey is a big left-handed pitcher who will definitely have an impact immediately,” Gamez said. All three are expected to have quality playing time on the team during their freshmen season, Gamez said. “We’re very excited about this class,” he said. “It’s always big to get kids that can help us both athleti cally and academically. They are all really excited about becoming Ducks, as well.” Last season, Gamez guided the Ducks to a 36-29 overall record, and fell only one game short of the Col lege World Series. Volleyball adds another setter In his first season as the Oregon volleyball coach, Carl Ferreira has implemented the flashy two-setter offensive system that has pro duced 10 wins so far this season. The addition of another setter, Lau ren Westendorf (Centennial High School, Bakersfield, Calif.) should strengthen the system and the pro gram even more in the future. “Lauren has an infectious per sonality,” Ferreira said. “She has 100 percent of the intangible char acteristics that I think it takes to be successful in the top half of the conference. She’s a highly skilled player, and I honestly believe that her attitude, intelligence and work ethic make her an above-average recruit.” Westendorf, a 6-foot senior who will also see action as an outside hit ter, was named First-Team All-Area in 1999 and chosen the Best All Around Player for her junior season. “I’m really excited because I love the coaching staff and I think I can add a lot of things in terms of my mental and physical game,” she said.

Black TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 14). Set long range goals, and you can make them happen. Don't expect to finish the whole thing this year, however. November's perfect for planning; you're full of ideas. Clean out the well in De cember so it'll produce what you need for a long time. You love learning in January; prac tice new skills then. Don't travel, though. A set back in February's tough, but you can get past it. Save time in March for romance. Hustle up new business in April and do it in May. Stash away a fortune in June. A message is more like ly to get through in July than you are. Assess your progress in October and make plans for the next phase. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. ARIES (March 21 - April 19) — Today is a 4 —You need to move carefully. It will be easy to hurt people's feelings and hard to make up. Otlrers have expectations; some you know about and some you don't. Pretend you're walk ing through a minefield, and you should do TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is an 8 — Some people are having a tough time, but you seem to be above the fray. Your experience and a good partner's help give you a definite ad vantage. Use it to assist somebody who’s quick ly becoming overwhelmed. GEMINI (May 21-June 21)—Today is a 5 — Be careful. Stay out of traffic and don't make assumptions. Don't take anybody or anything for granted. Call to remind people of things they said they'd do and places they said they'd be. It's more work for you, but your chances of success will improve. CANCER (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6 —A disagreement with a roommate could dis rupt your shopping trip. Pay separately for the special items that you want, to avoid a con frontation. If you don't get everything talked out tonight, don) worry. Sleep on it. Things will look better in the morning. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)—Today is a 4 —You want to be assertive, but it's not a good idea. Others are a little edgy. You don't need to raise your voice. Stifle, and you're more likely to get your point across without ruffling as many feathers. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)—Today is a 6 — Don't get your hopes up too high. That raise you were looking for may not come through for a while. That doesn't mean you won't get it eventually. Be patient and don't let your imagi nation run wild. Your plans may take a little longer than expected. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 4 — An older person, a woman most likely, is liable to say something nasty. You want to snap back, but that's not a good idea. Don't tell anybody what you really think, especially this person who's being irritating. This is a test. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7 —You're good at choosing your words. That's the challenge. Rumors spread like wildfire when tensions are high. Pull rank, if necessary, to stay in control. Don't get people upset by telling them something they don't need to know SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 3 — Something you've been told isn't true. It doesn't matter if the person who told you out ranks you. Don't gamble, either. Keep your money in your pocket and your opinion to yourself. Check with other sources on that in formation you're wondering about. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7—You're strong, and you have a good team on your side. You have a good partner, too. Don't spend too much money, though. An item you're not familiar with may cost a lot less than advertised. Offer your good advice to a friend who's having troubles. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 3 —Your fantasy doesn't match reality yet. Your latest innovative idea needs to stay on hold just a little longer. The person who's paying the bills isn't going for it You won't lose a thing by wait PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6 — This isn't a good day to travel. The meeting you're planning to attend won't turn out as well as expected, anyway. Can you get a tain check? Somebody you care about would like to tell you a story. It would be nice if you could be there to hear it. - > * 085 GREEK ANNOUNCEMENTS IK IK The women of Sigma Kappa would like to thank the men of Sigma Chi, Delta Sigma Phi, Pi Kappa Phi, Pi Kappa Alpha and all independents who attended our barn dance.
