Wrestling continued from page 9 in the earlier dual proved to bo the deciding match, as Oregon prevailed by six points. Oregon State is “tough because their style of wrestling is to keep it close and pull it off in the end,” Webb said. “It’s exciting though.’’ The Beavers are also strong at 141, 157, 174 and 184 pounds. Fortunately for Oregon, the Ducks, too, are competitive at those classes. Senior Doug Lee defeated No. 16 Isaac Weber in the earlier dual at 184 pounds. The Beavers’ Shane Cunanan, Eric Jorgensen and Nathan Coy are undefeated this season against Oregon wrestlers. Both coaches agree that the win ner will be decided by whoever earns the extra points. “There are several opportunities for us,” Wells said. “Opportunities to score some bonus points and some additional points that we let slip through our fingers the last time we wrestled them.” Senior Chael Sonnen, ranked No. 5 at 197 pounds, will face rookie Jason Lovell in a key match for Oregon. Sophomore Brian Wat son, No. 7 at 133 pounds, will face 4-5 Michael Delaney. Sophomore Casey Hunt will sit out the Oregon State match be cause of a knee injury. Junior Ken ny Cox will fill in at 141 pounds. Cox is 0-4 this season and 8-15 in his collegiate career. The match will be the last regu lar-season appearance for Oregon before it hosts the Pac-10 Champi onships Feb. 25-26. It will also be the last dual match for Oregon sen iors Lee and Sonnen. Basketball continued from page 9 Bracey added, “We weren’t real ly having fun against Cal or Ari zona State, and we have to get back to getting up and down the floor and throwing alley-oops to each other. That’s when we beat teams.” Oregon head coach Ernie Kent is realistic enough not to keep alive any hope about his team running the table for the remainder of the season — as some of his players have — but he does believe that four, five and perhaps six more wins are possible. “The crucial thing for us is to battle our tails off and try to get in the postseason,” Kent said. “Be cause if we can get in the postsea son, that would be the third time getting into the postseason play in a row, and that hasn’t been done here in a long time.” In fact, a three-peat of that kind hasn’t been accomplished since three straight NIT appearances from 1975-77, when Kent was a player for the Ducks. Gettin’ props for his hops People that have seen Freddie Jones play know one thing for sure: The man can dunk. Now, he is receiving national props for his thunderous throw downs. If you happened to catch the Saturday night “SportsCenter,” you would nave seen a segment about the five best dunkers in col lege basketball. And yes, Jones was one of them. Fans were even given the oppor tunity to log on to ESPN.com and vote for their favorite dunker among the candidates. “I didn’t see it or anything, but I just heard about it,” said Jones, who didn’t finish first on the list, but did n’t finish last either. “I’m honored to be up there, but I’d much rather have our team have success than for me to get those individual honors. “But it’s a nice accomplish ment,” he said with a smile. For what it’s worth Stanford shot 30 more free throws than Oregon (37-7) in its win in Eugene last Thursday. Did a certain referee have something to do with that? In an unofficial sheet passed out to the media following the game, it showed that referee Deron White called eight fouls on both teams, and referee Bob Sitov called seven fouls on Oregon and six on Stanford. Meanwhile, ref eree Bobby Hunt called only five fouls on the Cardinal and 14 on the Ducks. Hmmm. Pesznecker continued from page 9 could, but that she can’t jump as high. She plans on testing her kne< in contact drills “definitely next month.” Which means that if she really wanted to, and if her coaches let her, Williams could be ready to play by NCAA Tournament time. Is If she could play right now, Shaq’s presence would be felt in every aspect of Oregon’s game. With the extra guard in the lineup, for wards Lindsey Dion and Brianne Meharry could return to their natu ral positions. The post would get deeper. Her dribble penetration and offensive creativity would open up scoring options everywhere. And Shaquala Williams has con fidence. No current Pac-10 guard can touch her, and she knows it. If Shaq came in pill form, she’d be just what the doctor ordered for the slumping Oregon women. Unfortunately, there will be no late-season comeback. Williams said she doesn’t want to play at less than full throttle, and her coaches want her healthy and ready for next season. So you continue to follow your beloved Ducks, and you can’t help but sigh because you know that this should never have happened. Any of it. And you wonder if your Ducks will even make the Big Dance this season, and that sickly feeling begins to burn again in your chest. But then, the antidote speaks: “They have seven games left, and they have to get their confi dence back up,” Williams said. “All they need is maybe one or two good games, and they’ll be able to get their confidence back up.” Maybe the real cure has yet to be found.
