Freshman center Jay Anderson had a solid outing against Stanford, converting on 3 of 4 shot attempts, including a three-pointer, in 10 minutes of action. Men’s continued from page 7 bing 12 rebounds. And whenever the Ducks did force Stanford to stray from the inside, Ja cobsen made them pay, draining four threes en route to a 20-point game. “Casey’s a pro,” Kent said. “He’s wasting time down here right now because I think he’s good enough to be playing there [in the NBA] right now. He has excellent range and has such a great feel for the game.” Oregon started the game with ag gression and took an early 4-0 lead after a Freddie Jones layin and a Bryan Bracey jumper. The Ducks stayed with the Cardinal, and were only down 21-15 after an Anthony Norwood free throw with 10:58 to play in the first half. Stanford outscored Oregon 21-7 in the ensuing six minutes to open up the game for good. The Ducks would hang around for a bit in the second half, trailing the Cardinal by 15 at the 14:42 mark, but that would be the closest Oregon would get. The Ducks were led in scoring by Bracey with 16 and Norwood with 14. Jones, who suffered through back pain, was limited to just two points in 15 minutes. Kent continually shuffled his line up, giving many of his players a chance to play. He was particularly impressed with his three freshman reserves, Luke Jackson (10 points, seven rebounds), James Davis (nine points) and Jay Anderson (seven points). “Our young kids, Luke, Jay and James Davis, had a chance to get on the floor, and it was an opportunity for them to get some minutes, ” Kent said. “(Jackson) needs more min utes. We need to play him more.” Even when defeat was certain, Ore gon’s reserves fought hard to the end. The Ducks traded baskets with the Cardinal in the last five minutes of the game, right down to Oregon’s final basket on a Davis three-pointer off a nice feed from guard David Jackson. “If we had given this kind of effort on Thursday night, we would have won aballgame,” Kent said. “We de fended and we battled a lot tougher.” Oregon returns to McArthur Court to face the Washington schools this week, beginning with the Huskies on Thursday night. “We need to put it behind us, re group and learn from this trip,” Kent said. Wrestlers win four times ■ Seven Ducks go 4-0 to help lead the wrestling team to four wins at the Oregon Duals Classic By Robbie McCallum Oregon Daily Emerald One week after picking up its first three losses of the season, the Oregon wrestling team atoned for the early disappointments by dominating the competition at the Oregon Classic Duals Friday.

Sonnen, Williams, Watson, Overstake, Harris, Webb and Lee were perfect on the day. “We had a good training week, and we’ve been wrestling with a lot of intensity,” Kearney said. “We’re being the aggressor, and we’re doing the little things to break our opponents down emo tionally.” The Ducks will now have only one-a-day dual matches for the remainder of the season. “We're on the home stretch in my mind because every weekend here on out we have one match,” Kearney said. “That allows you to get better training in without trav eling days.” Defending Pac-10 champion Boise State comes to town this Friday for a crucial conference match-up. The No. 12 Broncos defeated Oregon 24-11 last sea son.
