SPORTS BRIEF
Oregon men's golf finishes
16th in 17-team field
The Oregon men's golf team bat
tled a tough course and an even
tougher field at the Cleveland Golf In
tercollegiate Invitational on Tuesday.
Despite seeing marked improve
ment from most of the squad, the
Ducks could do little to improve
on their standings from Monday,
finishing the tournament in 16th
on the 6,815-yard, par-71 North
Ranch Country Club in Westlake
Village, Calif.
Sophomore Justin St. Clair con
tinued to lead the Ducks by firing
the most consistent rounds of the
tournament. St. Clair bettered his
first-round position by five spots af
ter shooting a 72-75-74-221, good
for an 8-over par and a tie for 32nd
with Stanford's Brandon Lawson.
His final round 74 did not come eas
ily, though, as St. Clair double-bo
gied Nos. 3 and 18, but was able to
birdie Nos. 4, 14, and 15.
The rest of the Ducks did not fair
as well as St. Clair. Sophomore Gregg
LaVoie, who fired an opening round
72, struggled to maintain his mo
mentum and eventually fell into a tie
for 56th after firing second and third
round 77s to finish with a 13-over
226. Senior Mike Sica made the
biggest jump on the leaderboard on
Tuesday. Sica rebounded from his
opening round 81 by firing a 71-75
to finish with a 227, good for a tie for
58th. Senior Jimmy White finished
in tie for 80th with a 235, while
freshman Matt Ma finished in 84th
with a 238.
Oregon finished the tournament
with a 49-over 901, finishing 55
strokes behind tournament winner
Texas. The Longhorns secured the title
by finishing with a five-under 847,
fifteen strokes ahead of tournament
host USC, which finished with a 10
over 862. TCU and BYU finished tied
for third at 872, while California
rounded out the top five with a team
score of 874.
Arizona State, national No. 3
UCLA, Tennessee, Stanford and Al
abama round out the top ten.
Individually, Texas' Matthew
Rosenfeld led the field with a 5-under
208. Rosenfeld held the lead for the
entire breadth of the tournament,
holding off fellow Longhorns Jason
Llartwick and Jeff Bell, who finished
in a tie for second with Cal's Peter
Tomasulo at 4-under 209. Arizona
State's Chez Reavie finished in fifth
with a 1-under 212.
The Ducks will next look to re
group and gain some positive mo
mentum when they return home and
host the Duck Invitational March 22
23 in Eugene.

STRUGGLES
continued from page 5
entering the tournament is that all
of its conference struggles came on
the road. HP Pavilion in San Jose,
Calif., is only a 30-minute drive
from Stanford and could art as a sec
ond home court.
Statistical leaders
Arizona and Stanford emerged as
the Pac- 10's top offensive teams dur
ing conference play.
The Wildcats (73.8) and Cardinal
(73.2) were the only teams to average
more than 70 points per Pac-10 contest,
each holding more than a four-point
advantage over third-place UCLA
Oregon and Washington State were
the only teams to average less than 60
points per game, each averaging 59.4.
UCLA finished as the top rebound
ing team during conference play, aver
aging 37.9 per game. The Bruins held
a slight advantage over Washington
(37.8), Arizona (37.7) and Southern
California (37.7)
This is a great win. I can't
really describe my
emotions right now.
I am just taking it all in.
We had the determination
that we knew we were
winning this game
and we just finished it."
Bianca McCall
Washington State forward
Oregon (32.9) and California
(32.6) finished at the bottom of the
conference in rebounding.
Individually, Washington's Giu
liana Mendiola finished as the confer
ence's leading scorer. Last season's
Pac-10 Player of the Year averaged 21.1
points per conference game. Powell
finished second at 20.2 points per
conference game, followed by Ari
zona's Dee-Dee Wheeler (18.8) and
UCLA's Noelle Quinn (18.1).
Oregon's Brandi Davis was 13th at
11.8 points per Pac-10 game.
Joy in The Palouse
Washington State closed out its
Pac-10 schedule Saturday with a 75
72 win over Arizona State. It was only
the 10th conference victory for the
Cougars in the past five years.
Bianca McCall led the way for
Washington State with 18 points.
"This is a great win," McCall said
after the game. "I can't really de
scribe my emotions right now. I am
just taking it all in. We had the de
termination that we knew we were
winning this game and we just
finished it."

RICE
continued from page 5
most consistent starters, including
four juniors and freshman Eleanor
Haring, are all returning.
Then again, it may be no contest.
If she fully recovers, Kraayeveld
could pick up where she left off last
season. The Bellevue, Wash., native
led the Ducks in points (17.2), re
bounds per game (8.6) and blocked
shots (16) before the injury. Oregon
was also 5-0.
In the KingCo Conference of the
greater Seattle area, basketball is
king. Kraayeveld transferred to Lake
Washington High School after two
seasons at Bellevue Christian. Jump
ing from a 1A school to the big 4A
scene, she found herself on a larger
stage immediately.
Now, Kraayeveld is on a large stage
every day. In Oregon, where the
struggling Ducks sUll have one of the
highest average attendance levels in
the Pacific-10 Conference, Kraayeveld
will lead a potentially dangerous Ore
gon squad into next season.
UnUl then, she will be on the side
lines. But she's just glad she can be on
the court.

The rub?
Thirty-one of those points have

To top it off, he's shared the
