involved with in the last year, includ
ing the firing of two head coaches —
football's Rick Neuheisel and soft
ball's Teresa Wilson — for various al
leged indecencies. Moos called the
Washington job one wrought with
"challenges," but that Oregon has
plenty of room to grow as well.
Growth includes the new basket
ball arena, which has been suspend
ed indefinitely since February. Moos
hopes to see that project pushed to
the forefront soon.
"Certainly, the new basketball are
na is on the front burner on my mind
of items that 1 would like to see ac
complished during my time at Ore
gon," he said.
Moos' announcement leaves the
Huskies with a dwindling list of po
tential candidates for the position.
Kentucky athletic director Mitch
Barnhart became the first potential
candidate to say he won't be coming
to Seattle. Barnhart, the former athlet
ic director at Oregon State, recently
told the Louisville Courier-Journal
that "I'm not interested in going to
any other position."
Arizona athletic director Jim
Livengood became the second to
dismiss rumors. I Je told the Arizona
Daily Star on Sunday he won't "go
through the interview process with
(Washington). I'll say this — the per
son Washington hires is going to get
that football program going again.
It's going to be a big factor in this
league again."
Three prime candidates still ru
mored to be up for the position in
clude Utah's Chris Hill, Texas El
Paso's Bob Stull and Ohio State's
Andy Geiger.
Washington search committee
member Michael Eisenberg told The
Seattle Times on May 13 that no
one has officially interviewed for
the job.

Club baseball heads to World Series
Oregon will face the top-ranked
Colorado State in the Ducks’
World Series debut today
By Kirsten McEwen
Freelance Reporter
It's all about defense.
Today, No. 8 Oregon (19-6 overall,
13-5 Pacific Mountain Conference) will
face No. 1 Colorado State (23-0 overall,
15-0 Rocky Mountain Conference) at
McKechnie Field in Bradenton, Fla., at
the National Club Baseball Association's
World Series. The Ducks will play at 9:30
a.m. EST against one of the top defensive
teams in the country in their World Se
ries debut.
Oregon earned its
first-ever trip to the
NCBA World Series
after beating de
fending national
champion Weber
State (16-7 overall,
11-1 Western Mountain Conference)
and then defeating Western Washington
(22-9 overall, 15-3 Pacific Mountain
Conference) for the Northern Pacific Re
gional Title.
"We have been waiting for this oppor
tunity for such a long time now," catcher
Jon Loomis said.
The Ducks will start pitcher Matt Men
sik, and after almost a full week of prac
tice, Oregon feels prepared to compete
against the nation's top teams.
The regional champions from seven
other conferences participating in the
World Series include Central Michigan,
Colorado State, James Madison, North
Carolina State, Penn State, Texas A&M
and Wisconsin-Eau Claire.
Colorado's undefeated record does not
intimidate the Ducks. Instead, center
fielder Mason Wright said it gives the
team an edge on the Rams.
"It gives us that much more of an in
centive to want to beat them," Wright
said. "I think we definitely have the ad
vantage because they might take us for
granted."
Club
Sports
Loomis said Colorado State's undefeated
record could possibly be a bit deceiving. The
Rocky Mountain Conference, Loomis said,
is "not nearly as tough as our regular-season
league."
Colorado State is known for its excel
lent defense, but its hitting and pitching
is rumored to be only average.
"We have heard they have very good
defense," Loomis said. "The reason why
they win is because they make no errors."
Loomis said the Ducks are willing to
give up the defensive battle as long as the
team wins the pitching and offensive cat
egories. In the past, Oregon's main weak
ness has been its defensive play. In order
to improve, the team has made some ad
justments in this category and has moved
players to different positions in order to
strengthen infield play.
"It gives us much
more of an incentive
to want to beat them.
I think we definitely have
the advantage because
they might take us
for granted."
Mason Wright
Center fielder
First baseman Jeff Douglas said the
team feels well-rested and healthy com
ing into today's game. More importantly,
he said, the Ducks feel good about their
chances against the Rams.
"It's all or nothing right now," Douglas
said. "We are feeling pretty confident af
ter last week's regional wins."
The winner of the Oregon-Colorado
State game will play the winner of the
Texas A&M - Central Michigan game and
will play Friday at 12:30 p.m. ESTThe los
er of both matchups will meet in the con
solation bracket.

HorOSCOpe by Linda C. Black
Today's Birthday (May 26). This
year is about home and family for
you, and it might mean an occa
sional confrontation. You have only
the best in mind for them, but they
have ideas of their own. Remember
that love is the most powerful force
in the entire universe. With it, you'll
accomplish what you're after, and
perhaps even more.
To get the advantage, check the
day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0
the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19) _ Today
is a 6 _ Now you're facing the hard
part where you have to do the work
in order to accomplish what you've
visualized. The good news is that
you can learn. The bad news is that
it takes a while.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) _ Today
is a 5 _ You can get the word out,
even if you don't know how. Focus
on your message first. Then, do
whatever comes naturally. Those
who've been arguing can come to
peace.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) _ Today
is a 7 _ What's more important _
your career or your family? Some
revisions may need to be made.
Get your priorities straight.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) _ Today
is a 7 _ A new assignment is
daunting at first, but you'll soon get
the hang of it. The benefits more
than make up for the effort
involved. Give it your best shot.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) _ Today is a
7 _ Once you're sure you can do
the job, start negotiating the price.
Don't get too anxious, and don't
start bragging before you’ve
cinched the deal. Start high, and
don't get all scrunched up if you
have to come down a little.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) _ Today is
a 7 _ You're pretty good at working
behind the scenes, and that's
where you should be. If you sup
port an important person in private,
he or she will support you in public.
What goes around comes around.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) _ Today is
an 8 _ There are lots of details to
consider, many of which will soon
become apparent. Some of them
you already know about and have
been watching for. Some you don't
have a clue about. That's why you
hire experienced help.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) _ Today
is a 6 _ Somebody could waste a
lot of money if you don't intervene.
You might not think that it's any of
your business, but it is. What this
other person does affects your
money, too. Be gentle but firm.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) _
Today is a 7 _ Love and marriage
go together, and so do work and
travel. If you're not already an
entrepreneur, give it another try. It's
a sure way to bring in money, and
you get to set your own hours. You'll
like that.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) _
Today is a 7 _ Your friends think
you can do anything, so why bother
them with the facts? On the other
hand, you don’t want them to catch
you messing up. Don't let them
make you late for an important
work date.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) _ Today
is a 7 _ Once you've built the foun
dation, you can start on the frame
work. Keep lines of communication
open. There's liable to be a dis
agreement or two as the project
continues. You can work it out if you
both listen.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) _ Today
is a 5 _ Don’t get so involved in
what you're doing that you forget to
be objective. It's good to keep the
big picture in mind. Don't get tan
gled up in the details.
