FOOTBALL continued from page 7 A Drew or Tyler Lbell," he said. "It's about stopping their wide receivers. Craig Bragg had a career day against us last year." Award winners lunior kicker Jared Siegel and senior offensive lineman Dan Weaver were named the 2003 CoSIDA All-District VIII Football Team on Thursday. I he award is focused on aca demics. Siegel has a 3.58 CPA in business administration while Weaver’s GPA is 3.28 in accounting. District Vlll states include Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and the province of British Columbia. Ten Pacific-10 Conference players made the first team and nine more made the second team. Quickie notes Oregon wide receiver Sarnie Parker needs one pass reception to tie for eighth on Oregon's single season reception list. Greg Bauer caught 53 passes in 1976. Parker would tie with Bauer with just one catch against the Bruins. From then on, Parker would catch Bobby Moore (54 in 1969), and then Pat Johnson and Ricky Whittle — Johnson had 55 in 1997 and Whittle did the same in 1995. On similar footing, wide receiv er Demetrius Williams needs 36 receiving yards to catch Tony Hart ley for seventh in receiving yards in a season. Williams has caught 43 passes for 845 yards this season. Hartley had 881 in 1999. Sitting sixth on the list is Mar shaun Tucker, who accumulated 882 yards in 2000. Television update Saturday's game will not be tele vised live. Duck fans, however, can catch the game on a tape delayed basis by tuning into KEZI at 11:30 p.m. Saturday. On Tuesday, the Ducks an nounced that KEZI will air the Civil War live with Barry Tompkins do ing play-by-play. Contact the sports editor at hankhager@dailyemerald.com. UCLA quarterback Matt Moore was unhappy with his demotion to second string, but he isn’t dwelling on it. Drew Olson will start for the Bruins Saturday. Courtesy UCLA media services VOLLEYBALL continued from page 7 A Madison was playing in place of sophomore Jodi Bell, who suffered an ACL injury to her right knee last Saturday at Washington. "I thought Heather played very well," Oregon head coach Carl Ferreira said. "It's a very difficult sit uation for her to walk into." Madison finished with 28 assists, three kills and a pair of service aces. Ferreira said the Ducks' slow start was typical of a team adapting to a new setter. "No matter what Heather's approach is, no matter how great the support from her teammates is, we're still going to have a little bit of an adjustment phase," Ferreira said. "I thought we finished the match a lot better than we started." Arizona's (13-13, 7-8) attack proved to be too much for the Ducks to handle. Sophomore out side hitters Jennifer Abernathy and Kim Cdass sent attacks over the net with such force that at times Oregon defenders were knocked backwards. Abernathy finished with 18 kills and Glass had seven. Oregon's offense didn't have the firepower needed to keep pace with Arizona. The Wildcats out-hit the Ducks percentage-wise, .337 to .157. The Wildcats had five players finish with a hitting percentage of .300 or higher. Sophomore middle blocker Bre Ladd led all players with at least 10 attacks by hitting .538. When Oregon did have an opportunity for a kill, an oppor tunistic Arizona front line was usually there to send the attack back over the net. The Wildcats finished with 12 team blocks, including six total blocks from junior middle blocker Jolene Killough. Ferreira said that while Arizona is a good blocking team, Oregon attackers need to do a better job adapting to opposing defenses. "Typically you have to be a little more dynamic in attacking," Ferreira said. "I think our hitters can make those adjustments. Any time you're in a one on one situa tion, your hitters should have the advantage. They should have the ability to turn and get the ball around any block at any time." Freshman outside hitter Sarah Mason led Oregon with 11 kills and hit at a .286 clip. Sophomore out side hitter Jaclyn Jones added seven kills and sophomore middle blocker Kelly Russell Finished with six. Junior libero Katie O'Neil ham mered out a team-high seven digs, while freshman middle blocker Kristen Bitter finished with a pair of solo blocks and a block assist. Home finale Oregon will play its final home match of the season against Arizona State tonight at 7 p.m. The Ducks will wrap up their sea son the following week with matches at Stanford and California. Players are staying optimistic about winning one of their final three matches. "In the Pac-10, there's always a chance," Russell said. "We're the underdogs, and we feel teams don't prepare well for us because they're not expecting us (to win)." Contact the sports reporter at jonroetman@dailyemerald.com. BASKETBALL continued from page 7 A there pretty quick just to lock down the boards." Oregon's average height is six feet — giving the Ducks an advantage in rebounding this season. I lowever, 6 foot-6 freshman Jessica Shetters will sit out the tournament with a sore an kle. She hopes to be back for the Nov. 25 game at Gonzaga. Shetters was hurt warming up for the team's first exhibition game. 1-SU and Villanova open the tourna ment Saturday with a 4 p.m. game. Sat urday's two winners will face each oth er Sunday at 3 p.m., while the losing teams play at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday. The tournament, sponsored by the Women's Sports Foundation, is an annual event that changes loca tion every year. "One of the things that they like to do is put it in a community and a university that there is a lot of inter est in women's sports and women's basketball," Smith said. "It's some thing that we wanted to do because we feel we would really like to re ward our fans for what they do for women's basketball and women's sports." As an organization, the Women's Sports Foundation's mission is to "ensure equal access to participation and leadership opportunities for all girls and women in sports and fit ness," according to its Web site. The nonprofit group was founded by tennis legend Billie Jean King in 1974. Contact the senior sports reporter at mindirice@dailyemerald.com. WRESTLING continued from page 7 A to be an All-American." This year's team is one of equal leadership. Seniors, like Harless, don't necessarily carry the load more than any of the team's freshmen. "(With) our team it's not a matter of oldest or youngest to lead or be re sponsible," Harless said. "It can come from a sophomore, junior or senior. The biggest factor is guys that do what they say and (are about) talkin' the talk and walkin' the walk." While the Ducks may not see im mediate success this year, the team tMMMMMMMiWMMMOMMOMMOMnMMMWMMMNMMMMMMOMMMMMMNOMMMMMii should be well-equipped a year from now. However, the Ducks still expea to put out a quality squad this year. "We have guys going out deter mined to win," Harless said. "Why have expeaations lower than that? We are going to give all we have. We are all proud to be apart of the team, it's aonce-in-a-lifetime chance." Scott Archer is a freelance sports reporter for the Emerald.
