Women’s tennis team nets
mixed results at Pac-lOs
■The Ducks hold off the Pilots,
but have trouble keeping up with
their league counterparts at the
Pac-10 Indoor Championships
By Peter Martini
for the Emerald
A day after defeating Portland
on Jan. 17, the Oregon women’s
tennis team struggled in the Pacif
ic-10 Indoor Championships.
The two bright spots for the
Ducks in the tournament were
senior Vickie Gunnarsson and
sophomore Courtney Nagle. Gun
narsson made it to the Flight II
consolation final and Nagle to the
Flight III consolation final. Gun
narsson lost to Lauren Colalillo of
Arizona State, 7-6, 6-4, and Nagle
lost to Nicole Havlicek of Califor
nia, 6-4, 6-2.
Oregon lost all three of its dou
bles matches on the second day of
the tournament. Davina Mendibu
ru and Nagle
lost to Califor
nia’s Kathryn
Lynch and
Havlicek 9-7;
Janice Nyland
and Adeline Ar
naud lost their
match 8-5 and
Ester Bak and Gunnarsson lost by
a score of 8-2.
Gunnarsson beat Joslyn Burkett
from Arizona State and Nagle
beat Marie Pier-Pouliot from
Arizona on the second day as
the only singles victories for
the Ducks.
Before the indoor champi
onships, Oregon defeated Port
land 6-1, sweeping all three dou
bles matches.
Mendiburu and Nagle defeated
Courtney Perkins and Jana
Jusupovic 8-3, Monika Gieczys
and Nyland beat Kellee Menke
and Allison Tyson 8-3, and Ar
naud and Bak beat Dierdre Ring
Marrinson and Lisa Bessman 8-4.
Throughout the weekend, the
Ducks tried different doubles
matchups than the ones they have
used in practice.
“I was pleased with the effort,”
Oregon head coach Jack Griffin
said. “It was nice to get comfort
able with the things we’ve been
working on. We had some im
provement in doubles.”

OK, back to reality — dark and
damp Eugene, where the only ice
that can be found outside is sur
rounding the newest porch keg.
Don’t misunderstand me, there
is a lot to do in places where
ponds don’t freeze in the winter,
but skating outside is something
everyone should get an opportu
nity to do.
Fans of the San Jose Sharks
and Atlanta Thrashers (why is
there a team there anyway?) or
the local Club Sports hockey
team and the Eugene Thunder
need to take a trip to the frozen
pond. There, skating is at its best
is on display, and people can
gain an understanding of what
motivated people to strap blades
to their feet to begin with.
