Men continued from page 5A better player. I’m glad that I was able to accomplish some of my goals this year. But we didn’t do as well as we would have liked as a team.” Bracey ended the season as the Pac-lO’s second-leading scorer with 18.6 points per game and the eighth-leading rebounder with 7.1 boards per game. He will now fo cus his attention on trying to make the National Basketball Associa tion, and that begins with his invi tation to the Desert Classic on May 1, a chance for players to strut their stuff in front of NBA scouts. Jackson, meanwhile, is already looking forward to next season, when he and teammate/roommate Ridnour return as sophomores. “I think we really have a big fu ture ahead of us,” said Jackson, who averaged 7.8 points per game. “It’s an honor to be on that team, but I’m disappointed that we did n’t make the NIT.” Assistant coach Greg Graham was impressed with the Ducks’ ef fort in their 69-60 victory against Oregon State Saturday and knows that his team could have made some noise in the postseason. “They played their tails off on Saturday,” Graham said. “I thought we would have played well in the NIT.” The one other Duck awarded Monday was junior guard Freddie Jones, who was an honorable men tion selection for the All-Pac-10 team. Wolvert earns honor For the second straight year, Oregon women’s basketball player Angelina Wolvert was named to the All-Pac-10 team. The senior leads the Ducks with 14 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. Fellow senior Brianne Meharry, who averages just less than 10 points and five rebounds per game, was given honorable mention sta tus for the All-Pac-10 team. The two will play integral roles this Saturday when 13th-seeded Oregon faces off with No. 4 seed Iowa in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in Salt Lake City, Utah. Tennis continued from page 5A Ducks captured the doubles point off wins by Mendiburu and Nyland (9-7), and Ar naud and Mattsson (8-4) before being swept in singles. Oregon dropped to 3-8 overall, 0-7 in the Pacific-10 Conference. After spring break, the Ducks continue their month long road swing in San Diego against Har vard and San Diego. Men reign in home finale When the Oregon men’s tennis team matches up with Portland State, it’s hard to call such a lopsided contest a rivalry. After what transpired at the Student Ten nis Center on Sunday, though, the Vikings might play a more inspired match next time around. The No. 69 Oregon men gave up only seven points while scoring 96 of their own against hapless Portland State. The Ducks swept the Vikings 7-0 in the final home match of the season for Oregon. “I thought the team handled it well and dominated with class, which I think is im portant,” head coach Chris Russell said. “A match like this helps a little with confi dence, but it’s not going to boost us up to a real high level.” Sophomore Jason Menke and the tan dem of freshmen Greg Dubourdieu and Chris King each swept Portland State oppo nents. Menke scored a 6-0,6-0 victory while Dubourdieu and King teamed up for an 8-0 doubles win against the Vikings. 1 , RUSSELL It's that time again* One week after the most successful online poll in Emerald history, the sports staff wants you to help make this week even better. Last week, an unprecedented 154 people lent their opinion to Peter Hockaday’s Weekly Sports Poll, which asked whether embattled Oregon head coach Jody Runge should be fired. It was a nail-biter, but 51.3 percent of you said she shouldn’t while 48.7 percent said she should get the boot. This week, we ask you to contem plate the Duck women even further. We ask, “How far do you think the Oregon women will go in the NCAA Tournament?” Will the Ducks be one-and-done or can they fight through the turmoil and make some noise in the Big Dance?

Black Today's Birthday (March 13). You'll get to show how tough you are this year, but don't worry: Love will find you. The old way doesn't work well in March, though profits in April are good. Design a new routine in May, and bail out a loved one in July. Travel brings bonding in Oc tober, but watch out for mechanical break downs. Change directions to find the prize in December. Make plans in February, but don't travel then if you can help it. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. ARIES (March 21-April 19)—Today isa6 — Clean out your closets. You'll finally be able to part with something you've been holding on to for too long. And you might find something you put away that you can use again. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6 — Get a tough partner to work with you against a difficult adversary. Expect the battle to go on at least through tomorrow. It'll cost you, too. Is it worth the hassle and the expense? GEMINI (May 21 -J une 21)—Today is a 4 — A grim foreboding or funny feeling you have is probably right, especially if it's based on expe rience. Proceed with caution. There's likely to be some kind of traffic jam or work-related sna fu. CANCER (June 22-Ju!y 22) — Today is an 8 —You're one of the few who can figure out the riddle, and you might be a lucky winner. Be a calming influence on those who are more agi tated than you are, and be gracious in your suc LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) —Today is a 5 — As soon as you get one issue solved, something else comes up. A solution may lead to the next problem. It will get easier after your choice has been made. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7 — A sensitive partner can help lead you through a maze. Pay attention and do a bit of studying. Split up the tasks, and you'll all have a better chance of winning. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 5 — You work hard for the money, and you like to be generous. But maybe more of that paycheck should go into the bank. Think twice before spending on presents, and save more for the fu SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7 —True love finds a way, but it might be a con voluted one. Don't let errands and hassles keep you from expressing your appreciation. It's not an easy day for you or your partner. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 4 — If you're not getting the answer, put that quest aside and get back to your hideout as soon as possible. Chicken soup might be the thing to help clear your head. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jail. 19) — Today is a 7 — Helping out a friend in need makes you feel pretty good, but don't shortchange some body else in the process. If you get too busy with social activities, you might forget some thing a loved one remembers. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)—Today is a 5 — Nothing ventured, nothing gained; make your proposition. You may not end up with as much as you ask for, so ask for a little more than you think you can get. In other words, be unreasonable. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6 — More congestion on the roadways is predict ed, so take care. If you can make the connec tion by telephone or any other way, do that in 120 MISCELLANEOUS FOR SALE DVD’s: buy, sell, trade, rent Emerald City Comics 770 E. 13th *345-2566 130 CARS/TRUCKS Need to sell your favorite WHEELS? 3 lines, 5 days Only $15 the Oregon Daily Emerald Classifieds help you sell your cycle.
