Competition heats up for Club Sports
■The EMU Club Sports
program gives many students
the opportunity to compete
athletically on a collegiate level
By Dominique Beaumonte
for the Emerald
In the midst of March Madness,
basketball fans aren’t the only folks
experience craziness.
With more than active teams, the
EMU Club Sports program is at the
height of this season’s competition.
Offering sports ranging from aikido
to water polo, the program gives
students the opportunity to com
pete in athletics on a collegiate lev
el beyond intramural sports.
Club Sports is co-ed and open to
all students, staff and faculty. It is
partially ASUO-funded and is re
quired to fund-raise part of its oper
ating budget.
Amanda Studdard, a junior, re
calls her freshman year participa
tion in Club Sports with pleasure.
“I remember wanting to go home
so badly,” she said. “That’s when I
found out that there was a women’s
water polo team.” Now she’s the
team’s captain and coordinator.

campus has benefited many of its
participants.
Sophomore Pete Bayly is a
member of the men’s rugby team.
Bayly said Club Sports gives peo
ple who can’t compete on the var
sity level a chance to participate
in athletics. Like many other Club
Sports teams, rugby has both
men’s and women’s teams that
compete regionally against other
college teams in the Northwest.
“Playing rugby and being a part
of Club Sports teaches people how
to work as a team and trust each
other,” Bayly said.
While Club Sports seems to be a
recreational outlet for their mem
bers, the teams have also enjoyed
competitive success.
Erin Koenig, a junior, encourages
people to be a part of Club Sports,
particularly crew. The women’s
crew team has the opportunity to
compete on the Pacific-10 Confer
ence level against teams including
Stanford and UCLA. The water
polo team came in fourth at its na
tional competition in 2001. Oregon
Ultimate, the men’s Frisbee team, is
ranked fifth in the nation and fin
ished third in 2001. Women’s vol
leyball won the National Intramur
al Recreational Sports Association
Championship in 2001 and just
won a regional title.
The Wushu Club recently hosted
an international competition on
campus. Because of its national
success, the club was invited to
host the competition for the first
time this year, Vaughn said.
The dance team has also been
successful. Now in its fourth year
with Club Sports, the team has
competed for three of them. This
year, the team members’ skills have
led them to be ranked by the United
Dance Association, a national
dance and spirit organization,
dance team coordinator and co
In her second year with the women’s club lacrosse team, Sarah Weller (center) scores her
first of two goals in Oregon’s 8-2 win against OSU. The team split its games Sunday with
OSU and the University of Portland. Oregon is sub-.500 for the season.
captain Amy Gaeth said.
“The dance team is the first in Ore
gon history to compete nationally on
the collegiate level,” dance coach
Karl Mund said. “Over 40 million
students are competing nationally,
and we are proud to be a part of the
fastest-growing area in collegiate
spirit, thanks to Club Sports.”
“The biggest contribution is that
Club Sports allows students to have
a program to be involved in,”
Vaughn said. “It really keeps stu
dents here, even when times are
tough academically. All the stu
dents who travel to compete are
representing the University in an
exceptional manner.”
