Two-time Kodak All-American. Three-time NWBL Player of the Year. Professional: Played for Vivo Vicenzia and Ferrara of Italian League and with the Canadian National Team. Selected to All-World team with Canada in 1979. Led team to fourth-place finish at Los Angeles Olympics in 1984. Won European Cup with Vincenzo in 1993. Retired in 1996following 10th-place finish at Olympic Games. Coaching: Ferrara 1985, University of British Columbia 1988-89, Familia Schio Club 1998-2000, Canadian National Team 1997-present. History continued from page 7A University of British Columbia. Since then, Smith has been the coach of the Canadian National Team and has rebuilt the program following a disappointing perform ance in 1996. Smith guided the Canadians to the 2000 Olympics and a third-place finish at the Pan American games in 1999, their highest placing ever. “I had the opportunity to play on the Canadian National Team and represent the team in two Olympics,” Smith said. “And I’ve had the opportunity to go back and be the coach of that team. That doesn’t happen very often. The fact that I’m back at the University of Oregon is a dream come true.” Smith continued from page 1A “I think we must remember the past, take lessons from the past, and we must move forward,” Smith said. “There’s a lot of heal ing that has to take place. I re member what I needed from my coach when I was a player.” While at Oregon, Smith was a two-time All-American who set numerous records. She’s still the Ducks’ second-leading scorer of all time with 2,063 career points, and the top rebounder with 1,362 total boards. After Smith graduated, she played a pivotal part on the Cana dian National Team from 1978-88 and 1992-96 as a player and then became the team’s successful coach. She guided the Canadian National Team to 10th place at last summer’s Olympic Games and to a silver-medal finish at the 1999 Pan Am Games. Moos interviewed five people for the job, with Smith and Utah head coach Elaine Elliott being the top two choices. “During the last five weeks, there’s been a tremendous amount of energy and effort put into the search,” Moos said. “We’ve left no stone unturned. When it was all finished, I felt that [Bev] was the best qualified and met the needs for our program at this time. “It’s very special when an institu tion can bring one of theirs home, and we’ve done that today.” Men’s basketball head coach Ernie Kent was hired in 1997 to coach here, at his alma mater, as well. Unlike Kent’s situation when he first came aboard, Smith will in herit an NCAA Tournament-cal iber team. The Ducks will return 2000 Pacific-10 Conference Player of the Year Shaquala Williams, single-season three-point field goal record-holder Jamie Craig head and six other letterwinners to a team that will also be boosted by the addition of a talented six player recruiting class. “I’m not here to reinvent the wheel; what this program has done in the past speaks for itself,” Smith said. “I feel it’s a sleek and efficient car that is ready to go down the Pac-10 highway and onto bigger and better things. I think we need to pump up the wheels a bit, patch a few holes that have let some air out and maybe give it a little different - spin. “And then get ready for a great big, wonderful ride. I just really hope that this car turns into a big bus, and I hope that we can in volve everybody as we head down the road to bigger and better things ... on to things that haven’t been accomplished here at the University of Oregon.” Smith, who said she hates to lose, will return to Canada to coach at a basketball camp from June 15-30 and then officially be gin her Oregon tenure July 1. Sports brief Avalanche head home for Game 7 of finals EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Ray Bourque’s guarantee was as good as Adam Foote’s goal — the Colorado Avalanche are going home for Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals. Foote had a goal and two assists, and Patrick Roy, never straying an inch from the net, turned aside a flurry of early New Jersey shots as the Avalanche prevented the Dev ils from clinching the cup with a series-tying 4-0 victory Thursday night. Just as Bourque predicted, the Avalanche rebounded from their worst game — a 4-1 loss at home Monday in Game 5 — with a deter mined, dominating effort to force the first Game 7 in the finals since the New York Rangers beat the Vancouver Canucks in 1994 and only the fourth since 1967. The Devils, clearly frustrated by Roy’s errorless play after they had a succession of good scoring chances in the first 10 minutes, can win the cup on the road for a sec ond successive season.
