Bellotti said. "But we have had success
with junior college players."
He did say the Ducks recruited two
or three junior college players but
they did not commit to Oregon.
Oregon also failed to sign a quar
terback, instead figuring that a quar
tet of Kellen Clemens, Johnny
DuRocher, Brady Leaf and Dennis
Dixon was good enough to start the
2004 season. Bellotti did go after
one quarterback, Glencoe (Hills
boro) High School's Erik Ainge, but
he committed to Tennessee.
"We're very excited about the young
quarterbacks we have," Bellotti said.
After failing to sign a running back
a year ago, Bellotti landed two:
Moreno Valley, Calif's, Terrell Jackson
and Portland's T.R. Smith. Both
signed to play with the Ducks, and
both are highly recruited athletes.
Jackson was named one of the top 15
running backs in the nation by Super
Prep magazine after rushing for 2,664
yards for Centennial High School.
"He is an explosive back that is very
good in terms of making people miss,
then finishing the play," Bellotti said.
Smith originally made a verbal com
mitment to Oregon State, but changed
his mind and will be coming to Eugene.
The Jefferson High School star was rated
as the state's third-best running back.
"When you have the ball in his hands,
great things happen," Bellotti said.
In addition to Colvin's announce
ment on ESPN, the Ducks made in
roads nationally. Kwame Agyeman, a
5-foot-10 safety from Lake Park High
School, is from Itasca, 111.
"He is a hitter," Bellotti said. "He has
the ability to contribute on special teams
and earn playing time next season."
Micah Howeth signed with the
Ducks out of W.T. White High
School in Dallas. The defensive line
man was ranked in the top 100
prospects in the state of Texas.
Besides Smith, the Ducks signed
three players from Oregon: David
Faaeteete, a 6-foot-2 defensive line
man from Medford; 6-foot-4 tight
end Ryan Keeling, from Springfield's
Thurston High School; and Forest
Grove's Cole Linehan, a 6-foot-4 de
fensive lineman.

Manuel Kost, has dominated its op
ponents. Behind Bieri's power from
his 6-foot-6 frame and Kost's all
around game, the Swiss duo won 32
of 38 games played without having
lost more than two games in a set.
"We played really good doubles,"
Kost said. "We have hit good returns
and good serving, which is the most
important thing in doubles."
Junior Sven Swinnen has demon
strated signs of stepping up, which has
earned him the No. 1 singles position.
Swinnen defeated two ranked players —
No. 82 Erik Nyman from Brigham
Young and No. 88 Evghenii Corduneau
of Louisiana-Lafayette — in straight sets
last week. He has compiled an 8-0
record in the dual match season so far,
teaming up with sophomore Arron
Spencer at the No. 1 doubles slot.
Last weekend the Ducks won three
non-conference matches in four days
at home against quality opponents.

The
Eugene Glass School Presents a
Women also undefeated
The women have been equally as im
pressive as the men, if not more so, in
losing only two points in the three dual
matches played. The Ducks swept past
their opponents in matches against
Colorado and Nevada with 7-0 victo
ries to improve to their 3-0 record.
One of the surprises is freshman
sensation Dominika Dieskova, who
has held her own at the No. 2 singles
position behind junior Daria Panova,
who is currently ranked eighth in the
nation. Dieskova has a 6-0 dual
match record that includes a straight
set singles victory over No. 53 Anna
Erikson of Sacramento State.
In addition to Dieskova, five oth
er Ducks have undefeated dual
match records, including Panova
and seniors Courtney Nagle and
Davina Mendiburu.
