Warsaw Classic to shoot
out Parkinson’s disease
The fifth annual Warsaw Clas
sic, a 3-on-3 basketball tourna
ment established to raise money
to research Parkinson’s disease,
will be held Saturday at
McArthur Court.
As many as 96 teams of four can
register for the tournament, which
includes a women’s-only bracket
for the second year. Teams are
guaranteed at least three games.
Students from the University’s
Warsaw Sports Marketing Center
created the event in 1998 to honor
Jim Warsaw, the center’s founder
who is afflicted with Parkinson’s
disease. The event raised $5,000 in
its first year and has since donated
more than $41,000 to the National
Parkinson Foundation.
Co-chairman Jason Racette said
the goal of this year’s Warsaw Clas
sic is to raise $20,000. “This is a
very important cause and it helps
give back to a man who has given
so much to the U of O,” Racette
said.
Registration is available at the
event’s Web site at www.Warsaw
center.com/3on3. Registration,
which includes T-shirts and food, is
$40 per team. Donations are also ac
cepted.
Pistons return from Toronto
after double losses
TORONTO (KRT) — Staggered
from two poor games in Toronto,
the Detroit Pistons are coming
home for a Game 5 Thursday night
because they didn't play well
enough to win either game.
Using the inside strength of Keon
Clark and the outside shooting of
Morris Peterson, the Raptors tied
the series at 2, beating the Pistons,
89-83, Monday night.
On Saturday, it was Antonio
Davis bruising the Pistons' inside
players. On Monday it was Clark,
who scored 19 points and pulled
down 15 rebounds in his first 25
minutes of action. He finished with
19 and 16.
Neither Ben Wallace or Cliff
Robinson was able to contain Clark,
who entered the game averaging 11
points and six rebounds. Wallace
had 12 rebounds and two points.
Robinson had 11 points and three
rebounds. Peterson had 20 for
Toronto, making 8 of 12 field-goal
attempts.
Jerry Stackhouse made just 6-of
18 shots and scored 15; Chucky
Atkins had 20. Corliss Williamson
had 14 off the bench, but was just
4-for-13 from the field. Detroit
shot just 38.4 percent from the
field Monday. Toronto simply
dominated the hustle plays, play
ing with more desperation than
the Pistons.
Twelves minutes from having to
play a Game 5, the Pistons started
the fourth quarter slowly and fell
behind even further when Peterson
and Hakeem Olajuwon scored on
consecutive trips down the floor to
increase the home team's lead to
70-61 with 9:26 to play. Peterson,
who'd sputtered most of the series,
then scored six straight points to
put Toronto ahead, 76-68.
Jon Barry had just hit the second
of consecutive three-pointers —
bringing Detroit within 76-71 -
when he called for a foul by Bernie
Fryer. Barry, whose shoe had come
undone in transition, gave the ball
to Fryer and raced to the sideline to
tie the shoe — and was called for a
technical foul.
Stackhouse made consecutive
baskets to pull the losers to within
three, 80-77, but Davis countered
for the winners, making it a five
point game.

the team with a .342 average.
Oregon will attempt to snap
Hawaii senior second baseman Na
talie Gonzales’ 10-game hitting
streak— during which she is bat
ting .389 (14-for-36) with four runs,
a triple, and four RBI.
Oregon’s offense is led by sec
ond baseman Alyssa Laux, who
connected for a two-run home run
that sparked the Ducks four-run
sixth inning against Arizona State
on Saturday. Laux has raised her
average to .349 and is followed by
first baseman Andrea Vidlund’s
.328 average.
Freshman Mari Lyn Petrick has
been coming on strong lately for
Oregon, and head coach Brent
Rincon has increased her playing
time and raised her position in
the lineup. In two of Oregon’s
three games last weekend, Petrick
hit in the fourth slot. She is now
hitting .263.

miss cut
first time
in decade
Oregon senior women’s golfer
Kathy Cho was selected Monday
to play as an individual at the
2002 NCAA West Regional, to be
held May 9 through 11 at the
Stanford Golf Course. The
Ducks, however, did not qualify
for the regional for the first time
since 1992.
“It’s disappointing,” said Oregon
head coach Shannon Rouillard, *
whose team finished 10th at the Pa
cific-10 Conference Champi- n
onships last week. “It’s tough to be ^
on the bubble and not make it. But
we had four underclassmen who
got incredible experience this year
and they will be major players for
us in the future.”
Cho finished tied for 17th at last
week’s Pac-10 Tournament,
recording a 14-over 230. For the
season, the Honolulu, Hawaii, na
tive has a 76.8 stroke average with
five top 25 finishes.
“It’s a tribute to how well she played
all spring,” Rouillard said. “She is cer
tainly deserving of the opportunity.”
Three Duck men
honored by Pac-10
Aaron Byers, a senior golfer for
the Oregon men’s golf team, was
named to the all-Pac-10 second
team Monday.
Byers, who shot a two-over 290
to finish tied for 11th in the Pac
10 Tournament in Corvallis over
the weekend, led the Ducks with
a 72.3 strokes per round average
this year.
Junior John Ellis, who finished in
a tie for seventh in the Pac-10 Tour
nament, and junior Chris Carnahan
were selected as conference honor
able mention candidates.
Kevin Stadler of USC was named
the conference Golfer of the Year,
while teammate Ben Hayes was the
Freshman of the Year. Washington
State’s Walt Williams was named
the Coach of the Year. 4
