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. ”

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 16). You know mon
ey isn't everything, but sometimes you forget.
Don't get stuck in a rut this year. Find more ways
to stretch your dollars, even if you have plenty
of cash. It would be OK to indulge yourself with
a few luxuries, however.
To get the advantage, check the day s rating: 10
is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Today is a 5 - Let
the rats race on without you. Duck out of sight
for a while. They're so busy squabbling, they
won't even notice you're gone.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Today is an 8 - You
don't have to settle for second best just because
you're on a budget. Just remember: The higher
the quality, the longer it lasts.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 6 - Do
you have anything that you could fix up in order
to avoid buying something new? This is how the
smart get rich.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) - Today is an 8 -
You're not only smart and good-looking, but
also lucky. You also have powerful friends, and
as everyone knows, that's better than just being
smart and good-looking.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 5 - Your intu
ition is a better guide than your intellect right
now Your imagination could get pretty active,
too. Use it all for your next career advancement.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is an 8 - Don't
let an insensitive jerk get you down. Your friends
understand and support you. Discuss it over a
fabulous gourmet feast. You'll feel much better.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) - Today is a 6 - Dress
sharp and be attentive. A person who can help
your career is looking your way. Put on your
best performance. Relax and smile.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) - Today is an 8 - Can
you get away, even for a little while? It'd do you
a world of good. Not tomorrow. Now!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is a 4 -
More pesky paperwork is required - one of your
least favorite things. Tie yourself to your chair!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is an 8 -
You'd never be able to manage it all if it weren't
for the people you love. Make sure they under
stand how much they mean to you. Tonight.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is a 5 -
Does it seem as if you're spinning your wheels?
Putting in lots of effort for very little in return?
Well, you're right. You're in the learning-what
doesn't-work phase.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) - Today is an 8 - The
time you're putting in is very productive. You'll
soon see a big improvement, so don't argue
with a person who can't understand.
