Bell has started a majority of match
es for the Ducks this season, despite
playing in the Pac-10, a conference
not normally kind to freshmen.
“She was a starter since she first
walked on to a volleyball court,”
Hartner said. “I think she could’ve
started at 95 percent of the schools
in the country.”
For Bell, the starting spot has
been welcome, although a bit of a
surprise. Especially because the
Pac-10 is a cut above the rest of the
nation and is a definite adjustment
from high school.
“I didn’t even have the first
thought in my mind that I was going
to start,” she said. “It’s a big-time
commitment here. I practiced every
day in high school, but it’s nothing
like practicing here. At practice,
you give your 110 percent every
day, and if you don’t, then we’re not
giving to our teammates what we
need to be doing.”
When Oregon head coach Carl
Ferreira was recruiting Bell, he saw
in her a set of intangibles that he
knew would carry over well to the
college game.
After all, when you take your
team all the way to the state cham
pionship two seasons in a row,

you’re going to have that winning
attitude.
“She has a tremendous feel for
the game,” Ferreira said. “She
walked into the front door with that.
She has a great feel of how to make
her hitters better.”
Actually, Folen believes that Bell
could be the cornerstone of a group
of Oregon freshmen — which in
cludes Kelly Russell, Dariam Aceve
do and Jaclyn Jones — that could
take the Ducks to the next level.
Ferreira “needs to get more of
those kinds of players,” Folen said.
“She can definitely be someone
who can assist in turning the pro
gram around.”
For Bell, that couldn’t come
soon enough. After enjoying a win
ning program at Sam Barlow, she
has been thrust into a program
that has not had a winning season
since 1990.

someone who can
assist in turning the

“I think it’s tough on everyone,”
Bell said. “It’s frustrating to be work
ing every day so hard having just
the strain on your body, both men
tally and physically, and then just
not having the outcome you want.”
Hartner has called her a “gamer,”
Ferreira believes she is “legit” and
has the “intangibles” to succeed,
while Folen said “she is definitely a
spark for the team.”
No matter how you put it, Bell is
a major Pac-10 talent. And there’s
no better place for her to strut her
stuff than at Oregon.
“We are so young right now, and
it’s just reassuring to know how
good we’re going to be,” Bell said.

Five Ducks will step on the field wearing an
Oregon jersey for the last time. Seniors Sarah
Denner, Amanda Orand, Peterson, Thayer and
Peters will conclude their Oregon careers tonight.
“It allows us a proper way to send them off,”
Steffen said. “This is a chance for them to bring
the season to a good wrap-up at home in front
of their friends, family and their teammates.”
The Ducks and Beavers face off at Pape Field

pace more, and I just kind of feel
more comfortable in my surround
ings,” Ganes said when asked
about her transition to the college
game so far.
Oregon has shown its intensity
leading up to the exhibition, with
practices and scrimmages hard
fought and competitive. Still, get
ting up for an exhibition game is
not always the easiest thing to do,
especially when it won’t count in
the standings.
But Smith believes the Ducks will
be up to the task.
“I think we are more than ready
to play against a team with another
colored jersey,” she said. “Some
players have been guarding the
same person for almost three weeks.
Particularly with our post players, it
can get feisty down there. I think
we’re ready to play another team.”
