Oregon men split weekend
■ Oregon struggles in doubles
play against Boise State but
defeats Loyola Marymount
By Peter Martini
for the Emerald
The Oregon men’s tennis team
played well in the bottom of the
lineup but struggled at the top and
in doubles during its weekend split.
The Ducks lost 4-3 at No. 69
Boise State on Friday but bounced
back to beat Loyola Marymount, 6
1, on Sunday to bring their record
to 6-2.
Oregon lost all three doubles
matches against the Broncos on Fri
day. At No. 1, junior Jason Menke
and sophomore Martin Pawlowski
lost, 8-4. Junior Oded Teig and
freshman Sven Swinnen lost, 8-5,
and freshmen Manuel Kost and Jo
han Paalberg lost, 8-3.
“They outplayed us by serving
i
faster along with a high first-serve
percentage,” head coach Chris Rus
sell said. “We needed to be more
prepared for the faster play.”
In singles, the Ducks won three
out of the-six matches, one short of
what they needed to win the match.
Teig and Kost lost in the top two
spots, and Menke lost at No. 4.
Pawlowski won 7-6, 7-5, at No. 3.
Swinnen and sophomore Chris
King won both their matches at the
bottom of the order.
The Ducks returned home on
Sunday and played better from top
to bottom to earn the victory.
After winning all three dou
bles matches, Oregon won five of
the six in singles. The No. 5 and
No. 6 spots played well again for
the Ducks, both winning in
straight sets.
“We are a combined 14-2 at No.
5 and No. 6, and we hope we can
continue this,” Russell said. “That

is a tribute to the competitiveness
for those last couple of spots in
the lineup.”
Russell said that King’s play late
ly has earned him a spot in the
lineup. King didn’t play singles
against Washington loss or the vic
tories over Brigham Young and
Northern Arizona.
Next weekend, Oregon will travel
away from the Northwest for the first
time this season. The Ducks will
play New Mexico State, Texas-Ar
lington and New Mexico. All three
matches will be played outdoors.
“This week we are preparing
mentally for the adversity and dif
ferences of playing on the road,
such as wind, altitude, home
crowds and umpires,” Russell said.
“Physically, we need to be ready for
faster-style play.”
Women’s Tennis
The Oregon women’s tennis
team came up short twice on the
road last weekend, losing at No.
12 Washington and at No. 29
Washington State.
On Saturday, the Ducks were
shutout, 7-0, by the Huskies.
Sophomores Davina Mendiburu
and Courtney Nagle earned the
only win in doubles for the Ducks,
but Oregon lost the other two and
lost the doubles point.
Nagle earned the only singles
victory for the Ducks in a 6-1 loss to *'
the Cougars on Sunday.
Oregon’s record fell to 6-5 (0-4
Pacific-10 Conference).
“We played tentative and scared,
and we paid the price for it,” head
coach Jack Griffin said. “We just
need to get back into things.”

Sports brief
Flyers must work
to return to play
PHILADELPHIA (KRT) — They
are all just Flyers again.
The sons of five countries, they
now wear only one jersey, and
there is only one goal — to bring a
hockey championship to Philadel
phia for the first time in 27 years.
For the past two weeks, the talk
has been about Canada’s 50-year
drought for Olympic gold, about
the United States’ 18-game unde
feated streak on home ice, about
how 22 years ago a young“U.S.
team shocked the world and beat
the Soviet Union in the greatest
upset in sports.
With the Winter Olympics over,
that is all just history again, and
what matters now to the Flyers are
the next 25 games and the impend
ing playoffs.
“The Stanley Cup, the playoffs,
winning the last 25 games, that’s
the big focus now,” said Kim Johns
son, who played for Sweden.
The stretch run to the playoffs
begins Tuesday night at the First
Union Center when the Flyers face
the Chicago Blackhawks.
During the next 48 days, the Fly
ers will play 25 games, another
frantic pace that will challenge
their health and resilience.
It’s not as if they have been off all
summer and are beginning a new
season, but two weeks is a long
time to be off with 57 games al
ready played.
“I know most of the guys real
ly struggled with this, had a re
ally hard time trying to relax,
unwind, get rest, because you’re
always so used to playing this
time of year,” captain Keith
Primeau said.
