Wolvert continued from page 8 and Wolvert scored for the win. “What’s actually funny is you know that little spin move that I do? Not the one where 1 spin com pletely baseline, but like if I go one way, spin and shoot a jumper or something?” Wolvert said, grin ning. “I learned that from LeAnn Sheets, and that’s the girl from Washington who I always beat.” Wolvert’s voice brims with ex citement when recalling her fa vorite basketball memories. Perhaps her most recent highlight was against California last Thurs day, when — all in one motion — she wrestled the ball away from three defenders, scored and was fouled. She sank the free throw. “It felt so good to just rip it out of three people’s hands, shoot it and get the foul,” Wolvert said. “I like it when it just so happens that I get to come up with a huge play. I love to just get fired up right then, just so the crowd will get into it and feed off of it.” “She’s funny,” forward Brianne Meharry said about Wolvert. “She’s a player who thrives off adversity, like when we play at a place where they’re getting on us. She loves that, and that’s when she really steps up to play. She’s a big-time key to us in games, and she’s fun to play with.” Remembering her first basketball season as a seventh-grader at Wy’East Junior High in Vancouver, Wash., Wolvert said she was a 6-foot “chunk” with the game skills to match. Then came high school: “Maybe I grew into my body or something, but I just had more control over what I was doing,” Wolvert said. Since cracking Oregon’s starting lineup as a freshman, Wolvert’s abil ities as a Division-I forward have steadily increased. Her scoring av erage has elevated from 9.2 points per game as a freshman to 13.5 as a senior. This season, Wolvert’s goal to be Oregon’s go-to player in place of in jured star point guard Shaquala Williams has earned admiration from her teammates. “Ange has been great. I don’t know what her experience as a leader before was, but this year she’s really stepped into that role,” Craig head said. “It’s kind of funny be cause at the beginning of the year we didn’t really have a leader, and we didn’t know who was going to step up. Ange put that on her shoul ders.” She plays with intensity in intense situations. She’s a passionate player, and a tremendous athlete who is capable of scoring big numbers and playing nice defense: Judy Runge women’s basketball coach // But Wolvert’s competitive nature has created friction at times be tween her and head coach Jody Runge, who sometimes don’t see eye-to-eye on certain issues. The occasional conflict between player and coach is visible in Wolvert’s minutes per game, which have increased only slightly from 22.3 minutes as a freshman to 24.8 this season. Wolvert played just eight minutes in a 63-48 loss to Utah this season. “I’m stubborn and so is she. Sometimes we work well together, and sometimes we don’t,” Wolvert said. “If I don’t do the things she needs me to do, she won’t play me. It’s very hard for me to deal with. “The only times I get really upset with the coach is if I just feel like I’m getting questioned about how much I care about things or how much I re ally work.” Mowe said that it’s Wolvert’s competitive nature that sometimes creates the tension with Runge. “Ange’s emotions, she just rides them, and whatever happens, hap pens,” Mowe said. “She just does things, she says things, and she thinks about it later. ” Runge, declining to comment on Wolvert’s overall work ethic, praised Wolvert’s ability to play through clutch situations. “She plays with intensity in in tense situations,” Runge said. “She’s a passionate player, and a tremendous athlete who is capable of scoring big numbers and playing nice defense.” No matter where she faces adver sity, Wolvert is determined to play through it. She can’t stand being beaten by anyone. She said she’ll never lose her competitive edge. “I love stealing the ball — I love it,” she said, her voice rising. “It’s the coolest thing; it’s so much fun. When good plays happen I get ex cited. “I get fired up when my girl scores on me and just ticks me off. I want to go in there and just take it right at her.” The season is still young, but Wolvert’s collegiate career is almost over. She often thinks back to the Ducks’ humiliating loss at Maples Pavilion last season, and to their home-court loss to UAB in the NCAA Tournament. She also looks forward to a third Pacific-10 Conference Champi onship and another invitation to die Big Dance — maybe even a future WNBA career. And, of course, she looks ahead to the next game: Thursday at Wash ington, where she’ll get to say “hi” to an old friend, Sheets.

Black TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 17). You and your team are unbeatable this year because you seem to have superhuman powers. You're the energizer and a friend's the strategist in Janu ary. Don't let anybody else hold the purse strings in February. Follow a hunch quickly in March, and solve a big problem. By May you should have a simple routine. Empower anoth er and you'll both win in July. Save some of September for quiet contemplation in a beauti ful setting. Climb mountains in November. De cember could be costly if you’re not careful. Turn down an option with additional expenses. 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 — Is somebody trying to get you upset to gain an advantage? If so, stall. Your luck, power and influence will improve over the next few days, getting much better by next week. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)—Today is an 8 —You and your partner need to have a meet ing. You should be planning a trip — one that's deductible. Tomorrow will be good for travel GEMINI(May 21-June21)—Today is a 5 — Something you say in jest could be used against you. Scheming is happening behind the scenes, but don't be paranoid. Keep quiet, es pecially if you don't know who's on which side yet. CANCER (June 22-July 22)—Today is an 8 — Love could blossom for you, so set up an opportunity. If you've been waiting for the oth er person to call, don't. He or she may be too shy. If you get rejected, you didn't ask the right question of the right person. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5 — Your partner is good at figuring things out, but today he or she seems to be running into a brick wall. Offer a shoulder to cry on. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) —Today is a 9 — Romance is in the air, so make time for it. Have a secret mid-day rendezvous. Anybody who thinks Virgos aren't passionate people doesn't know any very well. They're selective, that's all. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 5 — An argument could break out involving your living arrangements and money. You'd like to do what the other person wants, but you can't afford it. You can work out a compromise, but don't give away the store. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 9 —You're probably getting offers from people you never noticed before. Don't get into any trouble just to show off. Remember, you're even more enticing if you play hard-to-get. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 4 — It's not easy to achieve what you have in mind, but that's your own fault. You're the one who picked the lofty goal. You wanted a challenge, remember? Tune to hit the books! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8 — Your friends encourage you to try something you've never done before, but find out how much it will cost. Your friends' esti mate may be a tad low. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today isa4 — Someone wants to order you around, and is not open to compromise. You may get a bonus if you comply. If it's against your principles, don't; if you merely don't like the person in chaige, stifle. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)—Today is an 8 — Something a foreigner said, or news you've received from far away has piqued your curios ity. Plan a voyage now, but wait a while before taking action. 095 PERSONALS Were you at the Alumni Association Holiday Bowl pre-game party?
