After turning the season around some at McArthur Court, the Ducks entered Pac-10 play 8-3 overall. The success ran into con ference play, where the Ducks jumped out into first place and looked to be on their way to a third-straight Pac-10 title. But then, suddenly, the bottom fell out. The Ducks went to Washington on Jan. 18 and eked out a win against the Huskies, but at a major cost. Injuries dropped seniors Angeli na Wolvert (knee) and Lindsey Dion (ankle). Two days later, the remaining Oregon seniors did something they’ve never done be fore — they lost to Washington State. For more than a month, the Ducks struggled to regain their confidence and lost five straight and six of seven. The Ducks dropped as low as sixth place in the conference standings during the slump. When Oregon seemed to finally turn things around with a home victory against first-place Wash ington, it went back on the road and lost to last-place UCLA, all but killing its NCAA hopes. “We’ve had some adversity, and we just need to fight through it,” Runge said after the UCLA game Feb. 23. “We really have no margin of error for winning out our last four games.” And the Ducks did just that — winning at USC and coming home to sweep first-place Arizona State and Arizona. Just one day after the Arizona win, eight players met with Moss to request that Runge be fired at the end of the season. The week leading up to Saturday’s Civil War game was an emotional one for Oregon, and Runge described the experience as “surreal.” But, through it all, the Oregon seniors still have one last chance to dance their way into the spot light.
