SPORTS BRIEFS
Men's basketball announces
television schedule;
Ducks on air all season long
The Oregon men's basketball team
is going to get plenty of television ex
posure during the 2003-04 season.
The Ducks announced Tuesday
that every regular season game — 25
in all — will be televised.
Oregon will appear 10 times on Fox
Sports Net nine times on the Oregon
Sports Network, twice on CBS, and
once each on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2 and
the Beaver Sports Network.
"This television package gives
basketball fans throughout the state
of Oregon and the entire Northwest
a tremendous opportunity to follow
our program each and every game
throughout what should be an ex
traordinarily competitive Pac-10
season," Oregon head coach Ernie
Kent said.
Oregon begins the regular season
at McArthur Court on Nov. 21 when
Fresno State visits Eugene. The Ducks
will play seven nonconference games
— including a Dec. 13 game against
Kansas in Kansas City, Mo. (ESPN)
— before beginning Pacific-10 Con
ference play Jan. 2 against USC in
Los Angeles.
Six of Oregon's telecasts will be
carried nationally; four times on Fox
Sports, and once each on ESPN
and ESPN2.
The Ducks lost in the first round
of the NCAA Tournament last sea
son, 60-58 to Utah.

Club teams begin tryouts;
not too late to sign up
Tryouts have begun for some of
Oregon's Club Sports teams.
It's not too late, however, to be
come involved. Tonight, at the As
troTurf field next to the Student
Recreation Center, the men's soccer
team will hold its second of three
tryouts from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. The
team will hold its final night of com
petition Friday at the Southbank
field — located near the footbridge
that leads to Autzen Stadium —
from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
There is no tryout fee and anyone
is welcome. Club ice hockey, which is
also conducting tryouts this week,
does have a $75 tryout fee and will
continue tryouts until Saturday.
Crew and water polo are also re
cruiting students to join their pro
grams. Both clubs always welcome
anyone regardless of skill level. Wa
ter polo begins its season this week
end, and crew has upcoming races
in October.
"Even if you have never rowed be
fore in your life, we still encourage
you to come out on the water and
see what it is all about," returning
rower Aaron Brent-Fulps said. "It is
a little intimidating being on the
boat for the first time because every
thing can be completely new. That is
why we encourage people to come
out early."
Those interested in tryouts or a spe
cific team can contact Sandy Vaughn
in the Club Sports Office, located in
the ground floor of the EMU.
Club Sports will also be holding an
open house on Thursday in the EMU
Fir Room from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
The coordinators of more than 30 dif
ferent clubs will be available to an
swer questions and to discuss poten
tial practice times and the level of
commitment needed.
"For the majority of the clubs, the
only requirement they have is that
people make the commitment and
stick with it," Vaughn said.
