The Ducks lose a match to
Arizona and are now win less
in eight Pac-10 matches
By Jon Roetman
Sports Reporter
The Oregon volleyball team
dropped a match against Arizona on
Thursday, 3-0 (30-21, 30-28, 30-19)
in front of 438
at the McKale
U Wfc, Center.
VOLLEYBALL Led by
- sophomore
Bre Ladd, the
Wildcats outhit the Ducks per
centage-wise .347 to .245. Ladd
finished at .643, including nine
kills in 14 attempts. Arizona also
got another big performance from
sophomore Kim Glass, who fin
ished with 17 points and 11 kills.
Glass has registered double-digit
kills in 25 consecutive matches.
Despite being outhit for the
match, Oregon head coach Carl
Ferreira said the Ducks featured an
efficient attack in games one
(.440) and two (.294).
"One of the things we have been
working on is our efficiency,"
Ferreira said. "Games one and two
tonight were the most efficient we
have played all year. That is a big
positive for us."
Arizona (8-10 overall, 2-6
Pacific-10 Conference) was able to
take advantage of Oregon's prob
lems with the service game. The
Wildcats finished with 13 service
aces, including five from Glass. The
Ducks (3-14, 0-8) committed nine
service errors.
Freshman Sarah Mason and
sophomore Kelly Russell led
Oregon with 14 points apiece,
each finishing with 11 kills.
Sophomore Jodi Bell added a
team high 28 assists.
"Games one and two (were the
best) Jodi Bell has ever set,"
Ferreira said, "which was reflective
of our hitting percentage."
Sophomore Jennifer Abernathy
led Arizona with 13 kills. Junior
Jolene Killough finished with 17.5
points and 12 kills. Senior Kelly
Griffin-Halfaker contributed a
match-high 38 assists.
Oregon wraps up its two-match
road trip with tonight's contest
against Arizona State. Unlike the
Wildcats, the Sun Devils run a 4-2
offense, which includes two setters
on the floor at the same time.
Arizona "has this mega-superstar
that can kind of bail them out of
situations," Ferreira said, referring
to Glass. "Arizona State kind of
comes at you in a wave. They have
three hitters for all six rotations
and they set them all."
As of Thursday, Junior Natalie
Harris led the Sun Devils with 4.25
kills per game. Senior Juliana
Escobar is second with 3.30.
Arizona State's attack is set by the
duo of senior Cheryl Anglin and
junior Giovana Melo. Anglin leads
the team with 435 assists, while
Melo has 302.
Harris, Anglin and seniors Kim
Mehlhom and Courtney Blocher
have been playing together since
they attended Valley Christian
High School in Tempe. Escobar
and Melo are natives of Brazil.

Sharks, Philadelphia
miss mark on offense
The Flyers and San Jose
play to a scoreless tie in an
early season NHL game
By Tim Panaccio
Knight Ridder Newspapers (KRT)
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Flyers coach
Ken Hitchcock was wary of the San
Jose Sharks. Sure, these aren't the
Sharks starring Owen Nolan, Vincent
Damphousse and Niklas Sundstrom
who were supposed to challenge for
the Stanley Cup two years ago.
No, these are Sharks of youthful vim
and vigor. The Sharks of Milan
Michalek, Jonathan Cheechoo, Nils Ek
man, Christian Ehrhoff, Tom Preissing.
"There is no substitute for emo
tion," Hitchcock said. "To me, some
of the younger teams like Vancouver
and San Jose, they've had a great start
and you've got to watch out."
The Flyers had to watch out on
Thursday night at the HP Pavilion
during a scoreless tie that marked
the start of their four-game Western
road trip, as well as the Sharks'
home opener. San Jose came out fir
ing and never let up.
Flyers goalie Jeff Hackett, who
played for the Sharks during their
inaugural season of 1991-92 and
the next year, had a spectacular
game, turning away shot after shot
from difficult angles and close
range. He outdueled San Jose's
Evgeni Nabokov, making 26 saves
in regulation.
Hackett stole a point for the Flyers.
Without him, this trip to San Jose like
ly would have begun with a loss.
In recording his second shutout of
the season in two starts, he had a dra
matic moment in the final minutes of
overtime. Off a scramble in front, the
puck appeared to go behind Hackett's
right skate, but the video replay was
inconclusive as to whether the puck
actually crossed the goal line.
Typical of Hackett's stops was a
third-period cannon blast from Mark
Smith from between the circles. The
goalie cradled the puck and covered
up with stick blades slashing around
him for the rebound. In the final
minute of regulation, he denied
Patrick Marleau in the crease.
San Jose's Marco Sturm drew a dou
ble-minor penalty late in the game,
giving the Flyers a four-minute power
play that they squandered, something
they did with frequency.
The Flyers got a major scare when
forward Michal Flandzus suffered
what appeared to be a left knee in
jury in the final four minutes of the
second period and limped off the
ice. He returned, however, for the
third period.
Neither team scored in the opening
period, but the Flyers had opportuni
ties in the second period on a series of
power plays against a Sharks penalty
killing crew that ranked last in the
league a year ago.
First, the Flyers got a four-on-three
power play that eventually became a
five-on-three power play for 1
minute, 25 seconds. Up to then, the
power play had been effective at 30
percent (3 of 10). Yet, as was the
problem so often last season, the
Flyers' power play came to a crawl
that period as the players tried to
find the perfect shot or pass against
Nabokov instead of doing what they
did in the first two games of the sea
son — drilling shots and finding re
bounds in front.
