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

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.

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.

Saturday's game will not be tele
vised live. Duck fans, however, can

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)."

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.

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."
