High expectations arise for Ducks in finale ■ Oregon heads to New Mexico looking to win its final tournament of the year By Adam Jude Oregon Daily Emerald The Oregon volleyball team is hungry, and a Thanksgiving dinner is not going to satisfy any appetites. With the treacherous conditions of Pacific-1 0 Conference volleyball now gone, the Ducks (10-17 overall, 2-16 Pac-10) are prepared to end the year with a championship tro phy No, first-year head coach Carl Ferreira and the Ducks have not met their lofty goal of making a postseason berth for the first time since 1989. But they are treating the New Mexico State Thanksgiving Classic as if it were a potential NCAA tournament appearance. “Carl wants us to get the feeling of what it’s like to be in the postsea son,” junior setter Julie Gerlach said. “We’re looking to take the tournament.” Outside of the Pac-10 this year, the Ducks have lost just once, and that was against top-ranked Hawaii in sunny Honolulu. “We have had a lot of non-confer ence success, and we know that we have the better athletes,” Gerlach said. “We just can’t let them out compete us.” Oregon’s first opponent in Las Cruces, N.M. will be Texas-El Paso, a team that is 14-13 overall this sea son and 6-8 in the Western Athlet ic Conference. In the second match, the Ducks will face the host school New Mexi co State (13-17 overall, 9-9 Sun Belt Conference). The Ducks finished Pacific-10 Conference play last weekend with losses to Stanford and California, and have been hampered by some ball control problems in the past few weeks. “We have had some ball control struggles,” Gerlach said, “but I don’t see it as a big issue this week end. This is the time to be at our best... we have to elevate our level of play.” And the winner is... It was announced Tuesday that junior outside hitter Monique Tob bagi was selected to the All-Pac-10 Honorable Mention team. Addi tionally, sophomore setter Sydney Shiite, Gerlach and senior blocker Halie Mazza were honorably men tioned to the Pac-10 All-Academic team. Arizona junior setter Dana Burk holder was named the Pac-10 Play er of the Year, and her coach, David Rubio shared the honor of coach of the year with USC’s Jerritt Elliott. For the first time ever, a team oth er than Stanford and UCLA claimed the crown as Pac-10 cham pion. This year, Arizona (24-3, 16 2) and Southern Cal (24-2, 16-2) shared the title. Hockey team battles, falls short against Huskies ■The Ducks return to Eugene banged up after losing twice to the Huskies in Seattle By Inge Scheve for the Emerald The Oregon club hockey team dropped two disappointing games to Washington, 5-3 and 4-1, in Seattle last weekend. Although the scores may suggest a wipe out, the games were closer than they appear. "Friday was an awesome game," Oregon captain Tyler Shaffar said. "I'm so proud of the guys and how we pulled it out. It's just unlucky play that made us lose." The Huskies were 3-0 going into the third period, but the Ducks evened the score at 3-3 on a power play with seven minutes to go, which lasted until there were 45 seconds left on the clock. Nathan Vogel scored two for the Ducks before a number of unlucky circumstances enabled the Huskies to win 5-3, Shaffar said. "It hurt a lot to lose that game. It was rough," Shaffar said. Oregon goalie Joe Fagliano did an outstanding job defending the Ducks’ net, playing the entire game on both nights while Josh Hardin remained injured. "We're happy with what Joe did," Shaffar said, adding that the defense worked hard as well. "Offensively, we didn't come through this week end. We didn't put the points on the hoard and that's what we were miss ing.” Oregon played too aggressively on Friday, Shaffar said. "We let a lot of cheesy goals go in." On Saturday, the Ducks tried to ad just their game to the larger rink, play ing more passively. But the Huskies used their giant-sized home turf to dreir advantage. "They know how to play that sur face," Shaffar said. "They were all over us." At the start of Saturday's third pe riod, the Ducks were trailing by two points when Brett Ledder shoved the puck in Washington's goal, netting Oregon's only goal that night. The Ducks were then pressing hard and thought they could tie it up, but the Huskies got a grip on the Ducks and played into 4-1, the final result. The Washington goalie was dis qualified after Friday's game, so the Huskies fielded their back-up goalie Saturday. While the Ducks may have been closer than the stats reveal, Shaffar said he could probably count on his fingers how many opportunities they had. The Oregon defense in particular is hurting after the games, and everyone is looking forward to a gameless weekend coming up.
