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.

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.
