Crew ‘motivated’ to do well at local regatta
■The crew teams hope
to perform well in front of the
home crowd at their regatta
By Jesse Thomas
for the Emerald
The Oregon men’s and women’s
club crew teams will be competing in
the 8th annual 2001 Covered Bridge
Regatta this Saturday at Dexter Lake.
The Ducks are co-hosting this
race with the Oregon Association ol
Rowers. With a large-scale team this
year, there will be five women’s
novice teams, along with three var
sity teams. On the men's side, there
will be two novice teams and foui
varsity, all in different categories
that will compete.
“We are looking very strong and ex
pecting high finishes this weekend,”
Oregon coach Craig Gerlach said.
Freshman Jenn Myers of the
women’s novice team is expecting
the team to do well based on how it
has been practicing.
Oregon is coming off strong fin
ishes last weekend in Seattle at the
Husky Invitational, where all its
teams placed in the top three. Also
last weekend, the Ducks were edged
out in the end with Oregon State
coming out on top.
Revenge is possible, though, as the
Ducks will face the Beavers again this
weekend and expect them to be their
toughest competitor.
This is only Oregon’s second regat
ta this season, and the Ducks feel con
fident about the future. Although
there are newcomers, the team has
grown in size and experience.
“Everyone on the team is motivat
ed to do a good job and has bonded
together,” Gerlach said. “We just ex
pect to keep get
ting better, and
the team can go
far this year.”
The Ducks are
looking forward
to feeding off their
hopes of a big crowd, considering
this is one of the only regattas that
is close to campus, in their quest for
victory.
Triathlon team excited
about hosting event
The Oregon club triathlon team is
hosting the 2nd annual Duck Bill
Chill Sprint Triathlon this Sunday
morning on the University campus.
The course for competitors will in
clude a 500-yard swim in the Stu
dent Recreation Center’s pool, a 12,4
mile bike along the Willamette River
and a 3.1-mile run, which spans the
perimeter of the Oregon campus.
“It’s something positive that
we’re bringing to campus,1’ sopho
more Alisha Siecinski said. “It will
be fun for those competing. ”
The Ducks are hoping that this
annual event will increase in size in
years to come, as people become
more aware of the on-campus event.
“It’s an event for the entire com
munity,” coordinator Jay Williams
said. “It’s an introduction to the
sport of triathlon to any and all who
want to experience one.”

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 13). First finish
school, then get the job Studies require your at
tention in April. Keep at it until you get it right.
Stick to your budget in May. You'll have plenty
of the stuff you need in June. In July, you'll get
something you don't realize you need. Apply in
September, and choose in November. Graduate
in December, and assume responsibility in Jan
uary. In February, new friends help you see
what's coming next.
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 7 —
Slow down a little. You're about to encounter a
reality checkpoint. Hopefully you're not over
loaded. Clean up your act, and you won't be de
layed for long.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5
—You have a good idea about how to spend the
day. A dear one may disagree, but that's OK.
Once that person finds out how strongly you
feel, he or she will either go along or let you go
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)—Today is a 6 —
A friend's plan has merit, even if it doesn't get
far yet. Later in the weekend will be better. Or,
later in the year. You might have time for a trial
run this evening. Instead of flying to Tahiti, for
example, you could watch a surfer movie while
munching on pineapple and coconut It's a start
CANCER (June 22-July 22)—Today is a 5 —
You and your partner sometimes disagree, but
you need to join forces now. You both have
some tiling to discuss with the person who has
all the money. First list your options, including
relocation. Then, settle for more benefits if ad
ditional cash is not forthcoming
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8 —
Amazingly, the Garth has only appeared to be
still over the past few days. It has continued to
revolve, and quite a lot of work may have piled
up as a consequence. You weren't worried about
it then, and you shouldn't worry about it now.
Just do it
VIRGO (Aug. 2‘3-SepL 22) — Today is a 6—
Work gets in the way of love, and that could
make you cranky. The good news is thafyou
could finally solve a technical dilemma, mak
ing your workload easier. There's more time for
love tomorrow.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 7 —
There's no time to clean up your place this
morning' but you may want to entertain this
evening. Can you get someone else to clean for
you? If you can't afford a butler and maid, and if
yout superpowers don't kick in, schedule your
social event for Sunday instead
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 5
-—'Be careful about trying a new tactic. It may
not work as well as advertised. Instead of sav
ing you time, it could actually cause complica- ‘
tions. Meanwhile, get something you want for
your home, cheap. Fix the old, broken one.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today
is a 7 — Even if you sometimes resist your job,
and you occasionally resent it, you'll appreciate •
it now, because that money is welcome. If you
don't have a job and want one, this would be a
great day to interview. You're attracting money
like a magnet, although there still is work in
volved.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is
a 6 — You're sure of yourself, but don't get
cocky. Someone else's opinion counts, too.
You'll find that out soon enough, if you don't al
ready know. Tangling with this person is like ar
guing with a buzz saw. Don't get too close until -
he or she has cooled off.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)—Today is a 7
— You're under pressure to perform, but that's
good. It will force you to go public with some
thing you've been practicing. Your brilliance
shines through, even if you make a few mis
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)—Today is a 6—
Something that initially looks like it won't work
could actually turn out well. If it seems more
sensible tonight and tomorrow night, it should
be a good deal. It won't hurt to wait and make
