    Sports brief
Track teams compete
at UW Classic
In their second trip to the Dempsey In
door Complex at the University of Wash
ington, the Duck men’s and women’s
track and field teams continued to collect
personal bests and qualifying marks at
Saturday’s UW Quad Classic.
Redshirt juniors Becky Holliday and
Niki Reed led the Oregon women with
NCAA automatic qualifying marks in the
pole vault (second/third, 13-9 3/4) and
broke the previous school record (13-5
1/4) they shared by 4 1/2 inches. Sopho
more Kirsten Riley also climbed the
NCAA provisional list with her half-inch
personal best (fourth, 12-10), followed by
season bests and Mountain Pacific Cham
pionships qualifying efforts by redshirt
junior Georgette Moyle (ninth, 11-11 3/4)
and freshman Hannah Moore (16th, 11-5
3/4). Former NCAA champion Tracy
O’Hara of UCLA won the event with a na
i n
tional-lead clearance of 14-3 1/2.
Holliday returned to finish third over
all in the 200-meter dash (26.05), best
among the Ducks.
In the sprints, junior Janette Davis
helped the squad notch a pair of wins
and season bests in the 400 (56.23) and
4x400 relay (3:51.97).
Individually for the Duck men, red
shirt juniors Jason Boness (high jump, 7
1) and Micah Harris (60 hurdles finals,
7.90) exactly met the NCAA provisional
minimum qualifying standards en route
to wins.
The distance corps made its largest ap
pearance of the season so far as four
Ducks joined the Mountain Pacific Cham
pionships qualifying list in the mile —
redshirt junior Simon Kimata (mile, sec
ond, 4:06.74), redshirt freshman Noel
Paulson (mile, third, 4:06.80), redshirt
sophomore Ryan Andrus (mile, fifth,
4:09.81), and redshirt freshman Eric Logs
don (mile, sixth, 4:10.01).

assistant Damon Archibald, an Oregon fan taunt
ed the Trojans with profanities as they entered a
stairwell to go underneath the court to their lock
er room. The fan bumped bodies with assistant
coaches, and was eventually restrained, but
Archibald said the lack of security was “awful.”
“We had to play a game like that, and then we
have to deal with the fans?” Archibald said.
Bibby was also displeased with the post
game fracas. According to Archibald, the head
coach, who had led his team down the stairs,
rushed back up when he heard the profanities.
“This isn’t the first time this has happened,” Bib
by said. “Security just didn’t keep people back.”

second half, 13 in the entire game. Neither
team held a lead of more than six points, a lead
that the Trojans held twice and the Ducks nev
er held.
USC had one of those six-point leads with 5:54
left in the contest, but Freddie Jones hit a three
pointer to pull the score to 63-60.
“We knew it was going to come down to us
hitting shots down the stretch,” Ridnour said.
Ridnour led Oregon with 15 points and hit
-I I
two threes late in the contest. Jones added 14
points for the Ducks, who also got 13 from Jack
son, nine from Chris Christoffersen and nine -
from Robert Johnson.
With the win, the Ducks are in sole possession
of first place in the conference with seven games
left. USC and Arizona are tied for second, while
UCLA is in fourth.
Oregon travels to Stanford and California, both
6-4 in the Pac-10, next weekend.

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 4). Some years you
go forward, but this year you'll go back. Review
what you should know by now, and dig into it
even further An old area of study regains your
interest, as you discover all sorts of new treas
ures.
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 - This
is not a good day for a team effort, even if your
team is raring to go. More planning is required.
Seems like you've been doing nothing else.
You're advancing, and thereby encountering a
whole new set of problems. Take 'em one at a
time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Today is a 7 -
Stand back a bit and let someone else speak for
you. This person can state your case better than
you can. Besides, that frees you up to do some
thing else. A strong advocate for your cause is
a solid investment.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 7 - It may
be difficult to express what's on your mind, es
pecially when it comes to money. Get your facts
straight before you speak. In about 10 days, it'll
get easier. From now until then, do the home
work.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) - Today is a 7 -
You're still facing all sorts of problems, includ
ing a few technical difficulties, but you're not
facing them alone. You have a powerful person
on your side. If you feel overwhelmed, call for
help.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 7 - You're a
natural-born leader, but lately you've felt more
like a follower. Don't fight it. Learn as much as
you can from the experience.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is a 6 - Make
time to work on your schedule and rearrange
your priorities. Some things you wanted to do
now will have to be postponed, but other oppor
tunities arise. A conversation with a person you
love brings needed support and encourage
ment. Make the call.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) - Today is a 7 - Love is
going to have to wait while you take care of busi
ness. Promise to meet tomorrow night instead
of tonight. If you hustle, you'll have done
enough by then to justify (and pay for) another
wild fling.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) - Today is a 6 - Eval
uate your plans with a critical eye. Now is the
time to decide what to toss and what to save.
Sell the valuable stuff so that you can buy some
thing special. Nothing says you have to lose
money on this deal.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is a 5 -
Most things will take longer than expected and
require more effort Start shopping for the next
big item on your list. An insider tip could lead
you right to it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 7 -
The things you try that don't work are actually
very helpful. There'll be about three or four of
them before you find the thing that does work.
Don't give up.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is a 7 - Pay
attention to what's going on behind the scenes.
That's where the action is. Ask a few leading
questions and get the clues you've been after.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) - Today is a 6 -
You're more decisive now. You can see that
some of the tasks on your list no longer need to
be done. Scratch them off without a twinge of
guilt. This makes the rest much more manage
able.
