year and we will be ready to kick Wash
ington's butt."
Washington is a sore subject for the
Ducks. The 1 luskies were the first and
last team to defeat Oregon this season,
stopping the Ducks' 9-0 start in a 5-2
victory over the Ducks. The Huskies
came to Eugene later in the season and
stole the deciding match to defeat Ore
gon, 4-3.
"These women know anytime the
Huskies are involved, it is a big match,"
Schyllander said. "We're at a point now
where we want to take the Northwest
crown and take out the Huskies."
Despite the Ducks' problems with
Washington, Oregon made a seven-win
turnaround this year and posted a 17-9
record. Their sixth-place finish in the
Pac-10 is their best since the conference
combined divisions in 1997.
Schyllander said a highlight for the
team came in February when the Ducks
achieved the first sweep of the Arizona
schools in program history.
"Those wins put us at another level
in the Pac-10," Schyllander said.
Individually, the season started great
for the Ducks as junior Daria Panova
won the Pac-10 Indoor Championship.
Panova, ranked as high as seventh in
the nation this year, continued to play
well for the Ducks, going 32-14 and
moving to the top of Oregon's list for
all-time wins with 84.
The Moscow native faltered at the
end of the season; she was upset in the
quarterfinals of the Pac-10 Champi
onship, breaking her streak of three
straight Pac-10 tournament titles. Pano
va was also upset in the first round of
tire NCAA Individual Tournament.
Freshman Dominika Dieskova
stepped up for the Ducks in the No. 2
position, getting her biggest victory
against No. 11 Dianne Holland of Ari
zona on Feb. 14.
Dieskova, ranked 71 st in the nation,
compiled a 20-17 record while becom
ing the first freshman in Oregon history
to be selected for the NCAA Individual
Tournament.
The Slovakian native also got her
name in the Oregon record books with
teammate Anna Leksinska by racking
up 20 doubles wins, second all-time in
a single season at Oregon.
"The sky is the limit for (Dieskova),"
Schyllander said.
Senior captain Courtney Nagle end
ed her Oregon career third on the all
time wins list with 64 victories.

High hopes for next season
The Oregon program will be aiming
high next season, as the Ducks will lose
only one player and gain one of the top
recruits in the country.
"I think we are finally starting to be
lieve that we're good," Schyllander said.
"We got a taste of playing some of the
top programs in the country and we're
excited to build on that."
Oregon adds 19-year-old Tatiana
Luzhanska — ranked as high as the No.
54 junior player in the world by the In
ternational Tennis Federation — to next
year's squad.
With Panova, Dieskova, Bak, Leksin
ska, Davina Mendiburu, Bolivian na
tional team member Monica Hoz de
Vila and newcomer Luzhanska, the
Ducks could be an imposing force in
the Pac-10 for years to come.
"We've had a lot of success this year,"
Mendiburu said. "Our goals will be
higher next year because we believe we
can be in the top 10 or 20 in the country
and near the top of the Pac-10."

Volleyball's struggles persist with a 3
69 Pac-10 record over the past four sea
sons. Head coach Carl Ferreira, howev
er, will return for his fifth season.
Wolverines get crushed at Autzen Sta
dium 31-27, which propels the Ducks
to the cover of Sports Illustrated and a
No. 10 ranking in the nation. What a
sweet day that was for Ducks fans.
X-Factor on the Oregon men's bas
ketball team will be the play of their big
men. If the Ducks can get key contribu
tions on the post on the offensive and
defensive ends, it will open up the
perimeter for Oregon's elite wing ,
players.
Youth movement stretches across
all of Oregon athletics including bas
ketball, football and track and field.
Zone defense should never be em
ployed against the Oregon men's bas
ketball team. There are too many
great shooters who should not be left
open by the zone.
