continued from page 9
ning up and down the court, finally
wearing out the Waves and ending
the game on a 23-11 run.
Oregon forward Robert Johnson
led the way for the Ducks, scoring
a career-high 19 points and adding
10 rebounds for his third double
double of the season. Ian Gross
white also scored a career-high 19
points, and Luke Jackson led all
scorers with 27.
Cincinnati 77,
Oregon 52
On Dec. 17, the Ducks traveled
East to play in the Jimmy V. Classic,
in front of a national television au
dience, in Continental Airlines Are
na in New Jersey.
But they left their game in
California.
Cincinnati dominated Oregon
from the opening tip. The Ducks
never found a rhythm, hardly had a
shot drop and generally looked lost
in the big-time venue.
“We played unstructured, sloppy
and without energy,” Jackson said
after the game.
The Ducks shot 36.4 percent
from the floor and 18.5 percent
from three-point land. Discounting
the Cincinnati game, Oregon has
averaged 93.4 points per contest
this season.
For one night, the Ducks weren’t
the Ducks; they were some
other team.
Oregon 107,
Florida A&M 66
Oregon returned home and re
turned to being the Ducks again
with a win over Florida A&M on
Dec. 20.
Jackson had a triple-double, the
second of his career and only the
third in Oregon history, with 14
points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists
against the Rattlers.
“I’ve always tried to play as an all
around player,” Jackson said.
Six Ducks scored in double fig
ures in the game as the Ducks re
turned to the win column.
Oregon 90,
Minnesota 81
The Ducks faced their first
ranked opponent since Kansas, and
their first ranked opponent at
McArthur Court all year, in the No.
25 Golden Gophers on Dec. 22.
Playing its third game in five
days, Oregon started slow against
Minnesota, going down 19-13 at
one point in the first half. But the
Ducks, who lost at Minnesota last
year, went on a 14-0 run to take
the lead for good.
Grosswhite led the Ducks with 18
points, and Oregon had five players
score in double figures in the game.
Minnesota tried to mount a come
back in the final minutes of the
game, getting within three points
with 3:11 to play. But the Ducks rode
the free-throw wave to the win.
Oregon 108,
California-Riverside 67
Three days after Christmas, the
Ducks gave the Highlanders a rude
present in the form of a blowout. In
their final tune-up for No. 4 Arizona,
the Ducks extended their Mac
Court winning streak to a school
record-tying 23 games.
“We just took care of what we
needed to do,” said Johnson, who
scored 12 points and had 12 re
bounds for his fourth double-dou
ble. “We just wanted to get ready
for Arizona.”
Arizona 81,
Oregon 72
And finally, the game that every
one had been waiting for, as the
Wildcats rode into town without
their star forward, Luke Walton, but
still dangerously talented. Oregon
fans even had to wait a while Thurs
day, as the game didn’t tip off until
9 p.m. at The Pit.
That start time may have affected
the Ducks’ legs at the end, when
Arizona broke away from a 70-70
tie late in the contest to bury Ore
gon’s chances of an upset.
“We lost our composure,” guard
Andre Joseph said.
The Ducks will wait again to get
their revenge on the Wildcats. The
two teams next meet in the last game
of the regular season, on March 8.
Oregon 94,
Arizona State 73
Two days before classes started
up and break ended, the Ducks took
the Devils to school in the second
half after trailing at halftime.
And so, to end it all, the Ducks
caught a break.

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 8). The informa
tion you're acquiring now will lead to wel
come innovations later. You can tackle a
tough household project yourself once you
learn how to do it. Make that your first prior
ity, and proceed with confidence.
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 6 _
Just a few little odds and ends to finish, and
you'll be on your way. Schedule the big push,
or adventure, or interview, for tomorrow.
Today, prepare.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) _ Today is a 9 _
You're looking good and doing well, but you
shouldn't take all the credit. The moral sup
port of your friends gives you a hidden
advantage.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21) _ Today is a 5 _
Your love life should be getting more inter
esting. Don't think you've got your mate fig
ured out entirely, even if you've known each
other for years. Allow space for changes.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) _ Today is an 8 _
Don't just contemplate what you might say or
do. That's getting you nowhere. Express your
love appropriately, decisively, but not on
company time. The boss may have other
expectations.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) _ Today is a 7 _ You
should be starting to get your second wind.
Just when you were about to hit rock bottom,
you pushed off against it instead. Brilliant! If
you're still in the process, keep kicking.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) _ Today is an 8 _
Try not to get so carried away with good
deeds that you plunge yourself deep into
debt. It’s good to take care of others, but also
take care of yourself.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) _ Today is a 7 _
Others encourage you to take action, but use
your own good judgment. When all's said
and done, you're the one who'll pay for it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) _ Today is a 7 _
Taking on new responsibilities means more
work for you. That’s the bad news. The good
news is that it could also bring more money.
Accept the challenge.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) _ Today is a
6 _ Tidy up your place. Get rid of all those old
pizza boxes. Tonight's good for romance, and
so are tomorrow and the next night. You may
want to entertain.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) _ Today is an
8 _ What you learn now can soon be applied
at home. Ignore old insecurities. Follow your
intuition, and let your artistic talent come out.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) _ Today is a 6 _
Come up with another new plan before
resources are stretched too thin. If you
request money for research and develop
ment, you just might get it.
PISCEo (Feb. 19-March 20) _ Today is a 7 _
Keep records on your expenses so that you
can be reimbursed. Tomorrow looks good as
far as money coming in, so figure out how
much to request.
