■The No. 16 Oregon
wrestling team looks to start
another winning streak in
California
By Robbie McCallum
Oregon Daily Emerald
With a biting loss still fresh in
their heads, the Duck wrestlers
look to get back on track with a
road trip to Cali
fornia.
Last Friday,
No. 16 Oregon
absorbed its first
Pacific-10 Con
ference loss of
the season, to No. 11 Boise State.
“I hope that [the loss] will in
spire us,” Oregon head coach
Chuck Kearney said. “We’ve got a
lot of work to do before the Pac-10
Championships.”
“A loss like that stays in the
back of your head,” sophomore
heavyweight Eric Webb said. “But
at the same time, you’ve got to put
it behind you, move on.”
The Ducks make their last trip
outside Oregon until the NCAA
Championships take place in
March with a swing through Fres
no and San Luis Obispo, Calif.
Oregon takes on Fresno State today
and Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo on
Sunday.
“[Fresno State and Cal Poly]
have very good squads that we’re
going to need to look out for,”
Kearney said.
Fresno State is ranked No. 22 by
the National Wrestling Coaches
Association and features three top
25 wrestlers.
tt A loss like that stays in
the back of your head. But
at the same time, you ’ve
got to put it behind you,
move on.
Eric Webb
sophomore heavyweight
Stephen Abas is a unanimous
pick for No. 1 wrestler at 125
pounds. Abas won the 1999 NCAA
crown at 125 pounds before com
peting at the 2000 Olympic Trials.
Webb will have his hands full
against No. 2 Billy Blunt at heavy
weight. Nathan Vasquez is ranked
No. 15 at 157 pounds and will face
No. 19 junior Eugene Harris.
The Bulldogs are 3-3 on the sea
son and will face UC-Davis at noon
today before taking on the Ducks at
7 p.m.
The Ducks will be looking for re
venge against Fresno State, which
upended the Ducks at home last
season, 25-12.
Cal Poly (1-6, 0-4 Pac-10) is un
ranked but received nine votes by
the NWCA. Cedric Hayman leads
the Mustangs with a No. 11 rank
ing at 149 pounds. Cal Poly’s
Steven Strange is ranked No. 17 at
174 pounds.
Senior All-American Doug Lee
(20-7) looks to win his sixth
straight match against the Mus
tangs’ Charles Sandlin (13-7).
Sophomore Tony Overstake has
also won his last five matches at
149 pounds and will take on Hay
man. Webb (21-4) will be looking
for his 11th dual match victory in
12 tries against Dan Leahy.
Oregon defeated Cal Poly last
season at the Oregon Classic Duals,
29-15.
Following this weekend’s
matches, the Ducks are at home
