Softball continued from page 13 until the end, winning their last game over No. 8 Stanford, 4-0. “I think the last day of the season shows the resiliency these players have; they really did work and try right to the very end which is demonstrated by out last game vic tory,” Rincon said. The Ducks were coming off a 2001 season that included the resig nation of head coach Rick Gamez for financial issues, the mid-season departure of one starter and a 28-40 overall record. The 2001 team was 1-20 in the Pac-10. Two other play ers left the team prior to the 2002 season to go play for other schools. “They had a difficult season last year and we had a difficult season this year wins and losses wise, but it wasn’t subjugated to some of the in ternal problems that transpired last year,” Rincon said. “This is a team that really got along well and really cared about each other.” Oregon’s top two hitters, second baseman Alyssa Laux and first base man Andrea Vidlund, both finished with a .320 batting average and a team-high 49 hits. Vidlund, who led the team in home runs (9), RBI (39), total bases (82), slugging percentage (.536) and walks (17), was named second-team All-Pac-10. Laux earned honorable mention All-con ference honors. Both Laux and Vidlund will be re turning for one final season for Ore gon as only Connie McMurren and Kristi Hall will graduate. Already five newcomers have signed letters of intent for Oregon to join next year’s squad, but the future for head coach Rincon is less definite. Because Rincon was only hired on an interim basis, the Oregon Ath letic Department has opened a na tional search for next year’s team and Rincon is one of 40 applicants. With the deadline for applications not until the end of May, senior as sociate Athletic Director Dave Heeke expects more to come. “Brent has done an outstanding job this season and if he is interest ed, he will be considered for the po sition,” Heeke said. “I would just be excited about the opportunity to get the job on a perma nent basis,” Rincon said. “I don’t be lieve anything is owed to me by the administration certainly, but I hope our efforts this season are recognized. “There were some good relation ships that were established with coaches and players, and I would like to see it through. I feel like we did a lot of work — not just softball work but team-type work and some academic work. And so, because of that, I would like to stay here and see that through and restore Oregon back to some heights that they haven’t attained. ” E-mail sports reporter Chris Cabot at chriscabot@dailyemerald.com. Jonathan House Emerald Senior Connie McMurren closed out her Oregon career Sunday with a 4-0 win over No. 8 Stanford, her 12th career shutout. The Ducks finished the season 2-19 in the Pac-10.
