Men’s win
continued from page 7
Oregon (13-10 overall, 4-9 Pacif
ic-10 Conference) played in front
of a strong contingent of Ducks
fans splashed around the 7,519 in
attendance, with many cheering
for Blaine, Wash., resident Luke
Ridnour in his return to the Seattle
area. While Ridnour did produce
14 points in 38 minutes of action,
it was the other Luke that stole the
show.
Jackson started and displayed
his all-around game in recording
the rare triple double with 14
points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.
He became the first Duck to per
form such a feat since Ron Lee did
it against Montana State on Dec. 7,
1972.
“That was unbelievable for a
freshman to come in here and do
that.” Ridnour said of Jackson’s
game.
The victory helped Oregon
move on from its one-point loss to
Washington State last Thursday,
and rediscover bow enjoyable the
game of basketball can be.
“It’s a big relief, and once you’re
playing together, it means you’re
having fun,” said junior Freddie
Jones, who converted many of his
game-high 22 points on thunder
ous slams.
Oregon was certainly having fun
in the early goings of the second
half when the three ball helped dig
the Huskies a hole they could nev
er climb out of.
In a seven minute stretch, Rid
nour drained three treys and Bryan
Bracey and Jones each converted
one en route to a 27-12 run that
put the Ducks ahead 67-49 with
12:17 to play.
“We went on a run there and fi
nally hit some [threes] that really
got us going,” Ridnour said.
Washington (9-16, 3-10) would
n’t quit, however, thanks in large
part to the play of C.J. Massingale.
The freshman guard had a team
high 18 points and closed the

Huskies to within 79-73 when he
drained two free throws with 1:53
remaining.
With the “Dawghouse” hoping
for a late-game miracle, the
Huskies blew their opportunities
to slice the lead even further.
Washington was then forced to
send Oregon to the free throw line
where the Ducks secured their
much-needed win after losing nine
of their previous 11 games.
“When you get ourselves in the
situations like you’re in, the easy
way out is to point fingers and
blame others,” Oregon head coach
Ernie Kent said. “We talked about
where you need to go to fight
through that adversity. That’s
where you have to look within,
and this is what this team did.”
Kent seemed to have found a
starting five that fit in Ridnour,
Jones, Bracey, Jackson and center
Julius Hicks. The fivesome ac
counted for 78 of Oregon’s 85
points, as each scored in double
figures.
That group sparked the Ducks to
a 31-17 lead at the 5:27 mark of the
first half. But then a 13-1 Washing
ton run propelled the Huskies into
the halftime break only down 36
33.
“I think we got a little fatigued
and they got the momentum,”
Kent said. “But the key thing was
we went right back out there and
bumped it up in the second half
and kept control here on the road.”
Now the Ducks return home to
McArthur Court to play the L.A.
schools in their final homestand of
the season. It will be a tough week
end that will go a long way toward
determining whether Oregon re
ceives an invitation to the NIT or
whether it gets shut out from post
season plav for the first time since
1998.
After Saturday’s win, the con
sensus around the Oregon locker
room was that this team had final
ly arrived.
“This feels great to get a win... fi
nally,” Jackson said. “We haven’t
been getting that many breaks all
season, and now we’re breaking
out of our shell a little bit. We’re all
clicking and we’re going to head in
a different direction now.”
Added Kent: “Sometimes differ
ent teams take different paths to
get there and we’ve been down in
this rut for awhile, but the key
thing is that they’ve stayed with
me.”

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 19). Attend
classes with friends this year and build up your
skills. The expertise and discipline you acquire
will be the key to your success. Be obedient in
March to gain rewards in April. Friends tell you
what to do in May, but you put in the effort.
Home improvements tap your resources in
June, but the results are delightful. A hunch
leads you to true love in July. Schedule a ro
mantic jaunt for November. Your skills and
sense of humor are put to the test in December.
Share stories of your exploits in January and
get the recognition you've earned. In February
go back over what worked — and what didn't
— and streamline procedures.
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 6
—You're a rather outspoken person most of the
time, but that's not a good idea now. You don't
have to tell the boss what you really feel. Just
tell him or her what you can do and when.
Then scramble to do it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7
—A person who seemed like an adversary yes
terday could turn into a good friend. You've had
your disagreements in the past, and will again,
but now you can compromise. This opens the
vay for something good to happen.
1EMINI (May 21-June 21)—Today is a 6 —
fbu may be burning to tell news you've recent
ly heard. If so, chill out. It's better if others don't
now that you know — or what you know.
Don't let your expression give you away, either.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6
—You and a special friend like to hang out to
gether. You don't talk much, but that's OK. Just
being together helps you work through your
worries. Visit that person and let a puzzle
you've been working on fall into place.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7 —
You've got plenty of love, and that's good. Your
energy level's low, though, and that's not so
great. You're facing a tough job and might not
be feeling up to it. Rely on that love; it'll pull
you through.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is an 8
— If you're not already in love with a beautiful
foreigner, watch out. It could happen before
this day's through. If you're already in love with
somebody like that, celebrate by planning a trip
together.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22)—Today is a 6—A
quiet day contemplating your next creative
project would be wonderful. If you have anoth
er job to finish first, try to concentrate. Then get
back into your fantasies as soon as possible.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is an 8
— Practice makes perfect, and that's your as
signment. A thousand repetitions of a simple
task will set it firmly in your subconscious, so
you'll never have to think about it again.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) —Today
's a 7 — Once you get your routine down, the
work becomes habitual. Don't get distracted by
a brilliant conversationalist until after the
work's done.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)—Today isa
7 — Shop for a special gift for a loved one or a
child. If it's hard to tell this person how much
you care, this thoughtful gesture might help.
And besides, it'll be fun.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)—Today is a 6
— You like to do the research first, but you're
getting pressed to take action. Something at
your house needs fixing — and soon. Call to
find the best deal on a replacement or ask a rel
ative with more experience.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7
— Listen to your friends, the ones who are
telling you not to worry. Although your worries
seem to make sense, they may be based on
false logic. Besides, it's OK to be perfectly il
logical if that's what it takes to stop worrying.
