the role of the favorite for long
enough. It is time for the Ducks to
be the underdogs.
The No. 37 women, coming off a
5-2 victory over then-No. 44 Wash
ington St., will battle No. 4 Gal on
Saturday and No. 3 Stanford on
Sunday at home.
The No. 65 men will look to contin
ue their six-match winning streak
against No. 10 Washington on Friday
and No. 55 Purdue on Sunday.
“Washington is the only the team
we play twice a year,” head coach
Chris Russell said. “So they know a
lot about us. It should be a hard
fought match.”
The Ducks will take No. 79 Oded

Teig into Washington to face No. 8 Alex
Vlaski,No. 14MattHanlinandNo. 116
Pete Scharler. Duck sophomore
Manuel Kost slipped from the rankings
this week because of an abdominal in
jury earlier in the season, but is cur
rently 5-1 in the dual season.
The No. 15 doubles team of Teig
and Sven Swinnen will take on No.
55 Vlasik and Ari Strasberg.
“This will be the most hostile en
vironment we will play in,” Russell
said. “That’s what college tennis is
ail about.”
The 4-2 Boilermakers bring the
No. 53 doubles team of Troy Havens
and Scott Mayer to take on Teig and
Swinnen, who are looking to im
prove on their record of 7-1.
“We’ve never seen Purdue before,”
Russell said. “But it looks like we
match up well against them.”
The women are looking to cap off
what has already been a successful
week. The teams landed three singles
players and two doubles teams in the
national rankings and notched victo
ries over two of the most prestigious
programs in the country.
“Gal and Stanford are two quality
teams,” head coach Nils Schyllan
der said. “We are going into this
match with the same attitiude and
look to continue playing well.”
No. 16 Daria Panova, playing the
No. 1 spot for the Ducks, will most
likely take on No. 13 Raquel Kops
Jones of Gal and No. 5 Alice Barnes
of Stanford on Sunday. Fellow
ranked Ducks, No. 52 Courtney Na
gle and No. 89 Monika Geiczys, will
battle No. 10 Amber Liu and No. 26
Lauren Barnikow from Stanford as
well as No. 45 Christina Fusano
from Cal.
Along with their highly ranked sin
gles players, the Ducks will call on the
doubles teams of No. 38 Nagle/Panova
and No. 44 Geiczys/Julie Merle to face
No. 1 Bamikow/Erin Burdette of Stan
ford and Cal’s duo of Kops-Jones/Fu
sano, ranked No. 11 nationally.
“We try to take things one weekend
at a time,” Schyllander said. “And we
are very confident this weekend. ”
The women play at noon Satur
day and 11 a.m. Sunday at the Stu
dent Tennis Center.

If that happens and USC ends the
season tied with the Ducks, Oregon
would win the tiebreaker because it
won both games between the teams
this season.
There is a black cat in the equa
tion. Arizona State, which defeated
California, 61-47, Thursday, must
lose to Stanford on Saturday. The
Sim Devils would win the tiebreaker
over Oregon if they are able to defeat
the Cardinal.
But Stanford won the first contest,
80-63.
Got all that?
But after Oregon’s impressive
victory, the Pac-10 equation is the
furthest thing from their minds. A
much-improved shooting exhibi
tion was.
The Ducks shot 57 percent from
the field and were 6-of-ll from be
yond the arc.
That’s far different from the 19
percent Oregon shot in the first half
against Washington last week.
“We really shook (the Washing
ton game) off,” Smith said. “We
were just aggressive all game
(Thursday), and that was important
to us, to not back down.”
Every Duck but freshman Yadili
Okwumabua scored in the win, with
sophomore Brandi Davis pitching in
11 points and Andrea Bills adding 10
— all in the first half.
The teams tied in rebounds at 32
apiece, but USC grabbed more offen
sively, 15 to Oregon’s seven. That
alone may have explained why the
Trojans were able to make a game of
it after trailing by 10 at halftime.
Oregon led by as many as 14 early
on in the second half, but with just
more than 12 minutes left in the
game, the Trojans chipped that fig
ure away to seven.
Ebony Hoffman, who finished the
night with 27 points, hit a three
pointer at the 5:19 mark of the half
to pull USG within nine, 66-57.
Hoffman then, in an unusual se
quence where Kraayeveld, Bills and
Kedzie Gunderson were called for
three-straight fouls, hit four-straight
free throws to knock Oregon’s lead
down to five, 67-62.
But sophomore Amy Taylor, who
has come on late in the season,
knocked down a three with 1:18 left
to ice the game for the Ducks.
“People just came in and did what
they could in their minutes,” Smith
said. “Amy Taylor, what can you say
about her?”
With USG in foul mode, the Ducks
made just four of their eight free
throws with less than a minute left,
but as Smith put it, the Ducks “hit
the ones we needed to.”
The win gives the battered and
sick Ducks an opportunity to cap
italize Saturday. But it will be
with a team that is facing sickness
and injury.
Senior Alissa Edwards and fresh
man Carolyn Ganes both entered
the game with colds — the latter
playing in just 12 minutes. Davis also
looked to be injured early in the first
half with trainers later looking at the
guard’s ankle. However, she came
back to nail a second three-pointer,
her 52nd of the season, tying her
with Shaquala Williams for fifth-most
in an Oregon single season.
The Ducks visit UCLA on Satur
day with tipoff set for 2 p.m. The
game will be broadcast on Fox
Sports Net.
