and King won their singles match
es to defeat Portland 4-3.
As the No. 2 singles player, jun
ior Oded Tieg lost to No. 75 Peter
Malacek 7-6, 6-0. Prior to the St.
Mary’s match, Tieg had been the
No. 1 singles player in every match
but Idaho.
“Both Tieg and Kost need to be
prepared to play both No. 1 and No.
2 for us,” Russell said. “This allows
us the most flexibility and keeps us
less predictable.”
Women’s tennis
The Oregon women’s tennis
team put up a strong showing in
Southern California during the
weekend, beating No. 66 Loyola
Marymount and No. 60 San
Diego before falling to No. 44 San
Diego State.
The No. 65 Ducks (6-1 over
all) beat Loyola Marymount 4-3
on Friday. Oregon lost the dou
bles point blit won four out of
six singles matches to beat the
Lions, who defeated the Ducks
last season.
“We lost 4-3 to them last year, so
this was sweet revenge,” head
coach Jack Griffin said.
After losing her first set 7-6, sen
ior Vickie Gunnarsson rallied to
win the next two sets 6-2,6-1.
Senior Janice Nyland and junior
Monika Gieczys picked up the lone
doubles victory for Oregon, beating
Edit Pakay and Penka Fileva, 8-6.
On Saturday, the Ducks easily de
feated San Diego, 6-1, winning all three
doubles matches and five of six singles.
Sophomore Davina Mendiburu,
Nyland, senior Adeline Arnaud,
freshman Ester Bak and Gunnars
son all won singles matches for
Oregon. Gieczys suffered the only
singles loss in the match.
The victories over Loyola Mary
mount and San Diego put im
proved the Ducks record to 6-0. But
they still had a match against San
Diego State.
On Sunday, Oregon lost to the
Aztecs 5-2 to wrap up a tough
weekend of tennis.
The Ducks lost the doubles point
and four of six singles matches.
The lone victors for Oregon were
Gunnarsson, 6-2, 6-1 over Julie
Chidley, and Gieczys, 6-1, 6-3 over
Katey Becker.
Over the weekend, Gunnarsson
stayed unbeaten in singles during
dual-match play.
The Ducks will start their Pacif
ic-10 Conference season by hosting
Arizona on Feb. 16 and Arizona
State on Feb. 17.

could beat them. ”
“We don’t doubt ourselves;
we know we can win,” point
guard Luke Ridnour said.
“These were two great chances
for us, but unfortunately we did
n’t get some breaks.”
Down the hall from the two
Lukes while they spoke, slumped
against a wall in the basement of
Haas Pavilion, was Freddie Jones.
The Oregon senior wanted to
make sure that none of the blame
for this road trip went toward his
teammates.
Jones may have scored a com
bined 59 points over the weekend,
but the only number he cared about
was zero — the number of wins His
team captured in the Bay Area.
* -“I-take full responsibility,” said
Jones, who scored 23 points against
Cal. “I had a chance to help my
team win two games. I’m sorry for
my teammates that they had to go
through this.”
Jones was upset with himself
that he didn’t end this game in reg
ulation with one swooping shot.
With less than 10 seconds to play in
the second half, on a two-on-one
fast break, Jones kept it himself and
just missed a tough, one-handed
floater in the lane.
“I should have hit that shot,”
Jones said. “I thought I was close
enough; I thought it was in.”
Cal head coach Ben Braun was
on the other side of the court
watching Jones’ drive and thinking
thoughts that were:
“Unprintable,” he said.
Jones’ shot missed. In the first
overtime, he was charged with an
offensive foul on a drive, and he
missed a free throw with 22.8 sec
onds left that would have put his
team on top. He also missed a
jumper at the buzzer that kept the
score knotted at 89. The missed op
portunities weighed heavily.
“I put that on my shoulders,”
Jones said.
But these two losses were
hardly Jones’ fault as the senior
followed up his career-high 36
points on Thursday with an im
pressive 23 on Saturday, unlike
last season’s Arizona trip where
he dropped 36 one night and just
four the next.
Jones left both the Cardinal and
the Bears gushing over his ability.
“Freddie Jones is a terrific player,”
Braun said. “He’s so dangerous. He’s
explosive. He’s a tough match-up.
“He’s become an all-around player.”
What it comes down to for the
Ducks are the bare facts: In
close games on the road, they
have lost. Oregon knows those
aren’t the results that deliver
teams Pac-10 titles.
There are still two more road
games on the schedule for the
Ducks, but those come on Feb.
28 and March 2 at the Los An
geles schools to close out the
regular season. Until then, Ore
gon returns home to face the
teams occupying the last three
spots in the Pac-10 standings
(Oregon State, Washington and
Washington State).
“The schedule turns in our fa
vor,” Kent said.
Kent has given his players
three days off to regroup from the
trip before resuming practice
Wednesday to prepare for Satur
day’s Civil War.
Jones, for one, doesn’t plan on
wasting an opportunity to capture
three wins in his final three games
at the Pit and keep his team in the
Pac-10 race.
“We’re still in the hunt,” Jones
said. “We aren’t out of it one bit.
We’re going back to a great crowd
that will help get us motivated.”
And they’ve left a road that has
included too many bumps.
