UO softball hosts No. 1 Bruins, Huskies ■Oregon hosts No. 1 UCLA today and No. 6 Washington on Saturday and Sunday By Chris Cabot Oregon Daily Emerald Five games remain on the schedule for the Oregon softball team and with little hope of be ing selected for the NCAA Tour nament, Oregon is simply look ing to pick up some quality Pacific-10 Conference wins to close out its season. Coming off a doubleheader split with Hawaii, Oregon (23-25 over all, 1-14 Pac-10) hosts No. 1 UCLA (44-6, 12-3) on Friday and No. 6 Washington (39-15, 8-7) on Satur day and Sunday at Howe Field. The top-ranked Bruins contin ued their Pac-10 hot streak last week with a four-game sweep of Washington, California and Stan ford. They have now won 11 con secutive conference games. After playing on Friday in Eu gene, UCLA will head up to Cor vallis for two games against Ore gon State. Last time UCLA played the Oregon schools, the Bruins swept the three games at Easton Stadium, defeating the Beavers 7 0 on April 19 and the Ducks 7-0 and 3-1 on April 20 and 21. Ore gon has struggled against UCLA in the past holding an all-time record of 7-50, while Oregon State is 5-60 against UCLA. Eight different Bruins have hit at least one home run, led by Stacey Nuveman who has con nected for 15.* Nuveman is bat ting .554 through UCLA’s first 50 games and is followed by Natasha Watley who is hitting .503. Claire Sua, who ranks sixth in batting on the team with a .310 average, follows Nuveman with 12 home runs. Washington also has eight play ers who have hit at least one home run, while 10 Oregon hitters have gone yard. Washington is led by junior Jaime Clark, who has 15, and freshman Kristen Rivera, who belted her 16th against California on April 27. If Oregon wants to be competi tive with UCLA and Washington, it needs quality pitching out of the three hurlers who have taken the circle wearing green and yellow. Anissa Meashintubby leads the trio with an earned run average of 2.49 and a 9-5 record. Lindsey Kontra’s ERA stands at 2.93, while senior Connie McMurren’s stands at 3.42. The games this weekend all be gin at 2 p.m. E-mail sports reporter Chris Cabot at chriscabot@dailyemerald.com. Adam Amato Emerald Third baseman Ashley Richards and the Oregon softball team will host three games against top-ranked UCLA and No. 6 Washington this weekend at Howe Field. Tennis continued from page 9 Adeline Arnaud and junior Monika Gieczys competed in that match. “I think this is a good draw for us,” Schyllander said. “UNLV had their best season ever, but they won a lot of 4-3 matches, and I feel we can pull off an upset.” The first round match will be May 11 at Los Angeles. The win ner will face the winner of No. 11 USC and Oral Roberts. Peter Martini is a freelance reporter for the Emerald.
