Oded Teig, Sven Swinnen and Manuel Kost will receive a well-de served rest this week after competing in the Icy Hot/ITA Men’s All-American Championships in Chattanooga, Tenn., last week. The Ducks will showcase Jason Menke, Chris King, Kyle Halberg, Thomas Bieri, Arron Spencer, Junaid Hossain, and Andrew Walker in their first competition of the early 2002-03 season. “I am very excited about the sev en team members (going to San Diego),” head coach Chris Russell ICATEE" GOLF CLUB at iU "piMdt College Students -*20.00 822-3220 # Where oh where has niy Kite dog gone?

Bieri and Hossain earned them selves a No. 3 seed in doubles action. Halberg, King, and Menke are making their second straight ap pearance in the San Diego Tourney while freshmen Bieri, Spencer, Hossain, and Walker are competing in their first collegiate matches. Last year, King won all five of his singles matches. The singles side of the tournament consists of a 64-player draw split up into two groups called Flights 1 and 2. There is also a 30-team doubles event with the No. 1 and No. 2 seed ed doubles teams earning a first round bye. Russell is enthusiastic about his team’s progress and hopes that this tournament will become another building block to a good season. “The trip (to Tennessee) exposed our strengths and weaknesses,” he said. “But that is what we try to do at this time of the year, so we become aware of what we need to do for the team season.” The Ducks begin play today at 8 a.m. Ryan Heath is a freelance writer for the Emerald. Adam Amato Emerald Lindsay Closs (8), Lauren Westendorf (20) and Heather Gilmore (7) suffered a three-set loss to the Arizona Wildcats at McArthur Court on Thursday night. Volleyball continued from page 5A in this conference,” Oregon head coach Carl Ferreira said when asked about Oregon’s late run. “It’s the young kids that are making the ad justments.” The entire Oregon roster made those adjustments in game 3. How ever, as Ferreira alluded to, the four Duck freshmen have been outstand ing, especially late in the match. That was the case against the Wildcats. Acevedo came through with five kills in the final set while freshman Jodi Bell came on strong in the end after a sluggish start to the match. She ended the night with 21 assists — not a superior figure — but much improved after 11 in the first two sets combined. “In the first two games, our serv ing and passing could have been bet ter,” freshman Kelly Russell said, re ferring to Oregon’s improved offense in game 3. “Games 1 and 2,1 didn’t think we passed to get our offense in a rhythm,” Ferreira said. “In game 3, you’re passing the ball, and your of fense is in much more of a rhythm.” The Ducks are not finished this weekend as Arizona State visits McArthur Court tonight at 7 p.m. Contact the sports reporter at hankhager@dailyemerald.com. Sports brief Roderkus Wright, a backup defen sive end for the Oregon football team, was suspended indefinitely Thursday for a violation of team rules, according to Oregon head coach Mike Belloti. Wright was suspended for the second time this season. Wright missed the first two games of the season for a similar violation of team rules, Bellotti said. Wright, a sophomore, had notched three sacks, one forced fumble and six tackles in four games of action at backup right end. He had a sack, a forced fumble and a tackle for a loss of six yards in Ore gon’s 31-30 win at UCLA last week in the Rose Bowl. —Peter Hockaday To place an ad, call (541) 346-4343 or stop by Room 300 Erb Memorial Union Classifieds Classifieds: Room 300, Erb Memorial Union P.O.
