UO rugby heads to nationals
■The Club Sports women’s
rugby team advances to the
Sweet 16 for the first time
By Jesse Thomas
for the Emerald
The Oregon Club Sports
women’s rugby team is going to
Disney World, but they haven’t re
ally won anything yet.
The Ducks will be competing in
the national tournament Sweet 16
in Orlando, Fla., this weekend.
They enter the tournament as the
overall 15th seed, and third seed
out of the Pacific Northwest.
The women defeated UC-Davis
last weekend in the Pacific Coast
Regional Tournament to earn a
berth in nationals.
“We can do a lot if we just find
that one game where everything
falls into place,” coordinator Erica
Kelly said.
Everything about the season
seems to have fallen into place for
the women, Kelly said. The Ducks
have never made it to the national
tournament and the level of play at
regionals was more than they ever
expected.
Kelly said that Oregon has a very
dedicated team with rookies who
have made a difference.
“We have a really cohesive
team,” Kelly said. “We just want to
go out and play our best.”
UO water polo
in nationals, too
The Oregon Club Sports
women’s water polo team is two
weeks away from the national tour
nament. And this year they will go
on their own merit.
PORT^
The Ducks competed in the tour
nament last year but only on a de
fault because
Washington
could not raise
enough money.
But after defeat
ing the Huskies
4-2 in regional
tournament this
year, Oregon leaves for Atlanta
knowing they earned it.
“We have to go in with confi
dence,” junior coordinator Aman
da Studdard said. “We want to do
as well or better than last year.”
Oregon walked away with a
fourth-place finish last year. They
enter this year’s tournament seeded
fourth out of the 12-team field.
The women have been on a two
a-day practice schedule recently.
They are very confident in their
defense, but on offense they need
to work on movement and shoot
ing, Studdard said. Most impor
tantly, the Ducks are just having
fun, she said.
“We play much better when we
are having fun and need to keep
that frame of mind,” Studdard said.
Ducks host triathlon
The Oregon Club Sports triathlon
team hosted the third annual Duck
Bill Chill Triathlon on Saturday.
It was a sprint distance triathlon
that consisted of a 500-meter swim,
a 12.4-mile bike and 3.1-mile run
that began in the pool at the Stu
dent Recreation Center and weaved
in and out of campus.
The Ducks had almost 80 com
petitors this year, a large improve
ment from last year, and were satis
fied with the outcome.
“Our event gives a good opportu
nity for newcomers to get their feet
wet, and for veteran triathletes to
kick off their season,” head coach
Jay Williams said.
The Bill Chill Triathlon is put on
as a fund-raiser for the team to raise
money for their big season race,
May 3 through 5. The team will
travel to Lake San Antonio, Calif.,
to compete in the Wildflower Sea
gate National Collegiate Champi
onships.
The Ducks compete in the
Olympic distance consisting of a
1.5-km swim, 40-km bike and 10
km run on a rigorous course.
Williams will compete in the event,
which is more than twice the dis
tance of the Olympic course.

for the Emerald.
Track
continued from page 13
Finally, the Ducks also feature
two top athletes in the pole vault.
Sophomore Kirsten Riley has
jumped at 12-5.5 this season,
enough to earn her a NCAA provi
sional mark in the event. She is tied
for 32nd in the nation.
“Kirsten Riley has vaulted really
well and has made steps every
year,” head coach Tom Heinonen
said.
Even better than Riley is junior
Becky Holliday. Last season’s No. 2
in the nation, Holliday is currently
tied for fourth with a top height of
13-7.25, better than the NCAA au
tomatic mark. Had she made a
jump at 14-2 last week at Hayward
Field, she would been the first col
legiate woman to do so this year.
However, she is confident she
will get there.
“I know what I need to do,” she
said. “I will make it.”
Kenyon and the heptathlon
Senior Jenny Kenyon will com
pete for the second time this season
in the heptathlon at Azusa Pacific
University, starting off the weekend
of competition for Oregon.
While most of the team’s athletes
will be at the Mt. SAC Invitational
in Walnut, Calif, and the Pomona
College Invitational, Kenyon will
be at the neighboring university.
“Kirsten Riley has vaulted
really well and has made
steps every year"
Tom Heinonen
Oregon head coach
Kenyon previously competed in
the heptathlon while the Ducks
were in Tempe, Ariz., in March.
“She needs to make a major step
this weekend,” Heinonen said.
“This is a great opportunity for
her.”
Injury Time Out
Compared to the men’s squad,
the Oregon women have been vir
tually injury free. However, that
has not kept them out of the train
er’s room.
Lundeen, who suffered an arm
injury earlier in the month, will not
make the trip to California as a pre
cautionary measure.
She did, however, compete at
last weekend’s Washington Dual
meet, placing fourth in the javelin
at 144-09.
“The whole plan is for her to
throw next week in Eugene,”
Heinonen said in reference to the
Oregon Invitational at Hayward
Field. “In hindsight, we should
have held her out last week.”
The Ducks will also be without
junior Janette Davis. The Medford
native competed last weekend as
well, helping lead the Oregon’s
4x100 relay team to a first place fin
ish, but will not get the opportunity
to run in California.
“She feels a lot better than we
thought she was going to,”
Heinonen said. “We’re going to
hold her out this week and let her
train more.”
