5 REASONS TO STUDY IN
AALBORG, DENMARK
1. Learning at Aalborg is practical. Working in small groups, students use their
knowledge to create innovative solutions to real-world problems. Aalborg
sponsored internships in Denmark and other European countries are also possible.

Ducks utilize depth in win
■The Oregon women’s tennis
team beats Nevada 5-2
by winning three matches
in the bottom of the lineup
By Peter Martini
for the Emerald
Nevada put up a strong effort, but
the depth of the No. 59 Oregon
women’s tennis team was too much
as the Ducks came away with a 5-2
win Thursday at the Student Ten
nis Center.
Oregon won two of three doubles
matches to take a 1-0 lead, but it
wasn’t easy.
Sophomores Davina Mendiburu
and Courtney Nagle lost their dou
bles match, 8-2.
“We weren’t really there in dou
bles,” Nagle said. “We weren’t
moving well and we were upset
with ourselves for not winning the
match. Every point counts against a
good team.”
Seniors Adeline Arnaud and
Vickie Gunnarsson won their dou
bles match handily, 8-0.
After trailing 5-3, the Wolf Pack’s
Vania Apodaca and Kodee Domin
go won four out of five games to
take a 7-6 lead against senior Janice
Nyland and freshman Ester Bak.
Behind strong service by Nyland
and a broken serve, they evened the
score at 8-8 and forced a tie-breaker.
Oregon won the tie-breaker 9-7, the
match 9-8, and the doubles point.
In singles, the Ducks faced a
tough top three from Nevada, but
played strong in the bottom three to
take four out of six matches.
Junior Monika Gieczys won her
match 6-1,6-0. Nagle played strong
at the net to take her match 6-2,6-0.
“We’ve been pushing Courtney
to the net because that’s her
strength,” Griffin said. “Hanging
back at the baseline isn’t her game
and we need her playing aggres
sively at the net.”
In her first collegiate match in
front of her father, Bak won her sin
gles match 6-0, 6-0.
“I’m really glad he came out to
watch, but I tried not to think about
it when I was out there,” Bak said.
“But I love him and his support.”
At No. 1 singles, Mendiburu lost
her match 6-2, 6-1 to Tjasa Jezernik.

Ester Bak (left) and Janice Nyland celebrate a doubles victory against Arizona. The duo
increased its record to 3-0 Thursday by beating Nevada’s No. 2 doubles team.
Davina said she had low energy
and she was playing a very good
player,” head coach Jack Griffin
said. “For some reason she didn’t
have much in the tank.”
Gunnarsson lost her match at No.
3, 6-4, 6-4. The doubles point and
the wins at the 4-6 spots in the line
up gave Oregon the victory before
the conclusion of Nyland’s match
at No. 2. After losing the first set, 6
3, she won the second, 6-3.
Because it had no effect on the re
sult of the match, Nyland played a
tie-breaker instead of a decisive third
set. She won the tie-breaker, 10-6.
With the win, Oregon improves
to 7-3 (0-2 Pacific-10 Conference).
The Ducks will resume their con
ference play at No. 12 Washington
on Saturday and at No. 29 Washing
ton State on Sunday.
Washington is 6-1 (1-0 Pac-10)
and Washington State is 1-2 (0-1
Pac-10).
“We aggressively closed out our
matches today,” assistant coach
Nils Schyllander said. “If we con
tinue to do that and limit our errors,
