    Club teams recognized
regionally and nationally
A number of Oregon Club sports
teams made headlines this past year
By Kirsten McEwen
Freelance Reporter
Club
Take them seriously.
After a year of undefeated records, national tour
nament appearances and individual awards, Ore
gon's Club sports teams have earned the attention
of many.
_ After placing second in the
Pacific Mountain Conference
and following a win over We
her State — the 2003 Nation
vUvlTS al Club Baseball Association
- National Champions — Ore
gon's Club baseball team
(19-8 overall, 13-5 Pacific Mountain Conference)
was named Northern Pacific Regional Champion.
The team's first-place performance earned the
Ducks a trip to the NCBA World Series in Braden
ton, Fla., where they made their first appearance at
the tournament.
Although the team failed to win a game at the
World Series, Club coordinator and catcher Jon
Loomis said the team took away many intangible
things from the experience of playing against seven
top teams.
"This gives us something to shoot for from here
on out," Loomis said.
The men's and women's lacrosse team also
made debuts at the national level.
Finishing first in the Pacific Northwest Colle
giate Lacrosse League, the men's lacrosse team (14
7 overall, 8-0 Pacific Northwest League) made its
first appearance in the U.S. Lacrosse Men's Divi
sion Intercollegiate Associates National Champi
onship Tournament in St. Louis. Oregon advanced
to second-round action after beating Boston
College, 14-10.
"We established ourselves amongst an elite
group, and set a precedent for the future," Club
lacrosse coordinator Jon Opet said.
The Ducks lost in the second round against UC
Santa Barbara by a score of 12-5.
The women's lacrosse team (17-6 overall, 8-1
Northwest Region) also earned a trip to the na
tional tournament. The Ducks finished league
play in third place and went into regional tourna
ment action hoping to better their league stand
ing. After the Ducks beat top-seeded Washington
in the final game by a score of 10-9, Oregon
earned the title of Northwest Women's Lacrosse
Division Intercollegiate Associates Champions
and a trip to Nationals to join the men in St.
Louis.
Oregon took home 11th place and gave six sen
iors a well-deserved send-off.
Unlike Oregon's lacrosse teams, Oregon's Club
Sailing team failed to qualify for nationals. How
ever, the Ducks were given several awards within
their Northwest Conference. Three members from
Oregon's team were recognized. Rob Duboc was
named to the All-Northwest team as an All-North
west Skipper and Maria Wong was named to the
team as a member of the All-Northwest Crew.
George Yioulos was awarded the Northwest Lead
ership Award in response to the hard work and
time he has invested in Oregon's sailing program.
For others, like the Club ultimate frisbee team,
greatness seems to be right around the corner.
Given another year, Club coordinator David
Bemey Needleman said the men's ultimate team
will be ready to post a better finish than its fifth
place showing at the Ultimate Players Association
Northwest Collegiate Regional Championships.

Field in Seattle.
"We were able to build something
uniquely special here," Swangard said, mak
ing sure to give credit to Burton. "Rick rep
resented such a huge cheerleader, not only
in the class, but externally. Rick was the per
fect leader at the perfect time for the center
where we were trying to make everyone
aware we existed.
"The true success for any program in an
academic context is sustainable knowledge
creation and human capital creation. Our
placement records stand for themselves and
those continue to go well."
The change to SBUS will help the 40 to
50 students who go through the M B. A. pro
gram better adapt to the changing world of
sports business. It has grown to a multi-bil
lion dollar industry, and Swangard cites
someone like Professor Dennis Howard,
who is a "finance and economics major,"
for the knowledge needed in today's sports
market.
"This is like any other industry," Swan
gard said. "It needs accountants, it needs
managers, it needs finance people, it needs
marketers, it needs (public relations) peo
ple and it needs designers. It's a broad cross
section of not only people who are in tradi
tional marketing but other disciplines as
well."
Swangard said he doesn't expect to in
crease the number of students who can get
into the highly competitive center. No, he
said, that's not necessarily how to further
the improvement of a program.
Instead, he wants to keep offering real
world experiences for the students who pass
through Warsaw's doors. That includes a
trip to New York for second-year students to
meet with NBA Commissioner David Stem
and NFL executives. It includes trips to San
Francisco and Los Angeles, where the
students met with former Major League
Baseball Commissioner Peter Ueberroth.
Swangard also hopes to start a sort of "ex
ecutive-in-residence" program, where in
dustry professionals can visit for lengthy pe
riods of time.
"We've always said our two major out
puts are knowledge capital and human cap
ital, " Swangard said. "1 think we've done the
human capital piece well. 1 think we've got a
lot of students in the industry doing amaz
ing things. The knowledge capital piece has
been a little bit tougher."
For Burton, it was a highlight to see those
students get out of the classroom and into
professional situations. He has missed that
since going to the NBL.
"I'm cautious about being prideful, but
really, what the center has achieved is won
derful," Burton said via e-mail. "... I hope
all of us who made a commitment to the
Warsaw Center and (the Charles *H.
Lundquist College of Business) can contin
ue to invest in it. The best result is not rank
ings or pride but knowing that we helped
students and made the industry stronger."
Burton is trying to do just that as the head
man in Australia. According to NBL Com
munications Manager Marc Howard, Bur
ton, who graduated from Syracuse Univer
sity, has instituted an all-star game and
made the league more fan-friendly.
"Rick's a terrific leader and has a strong
vision of where he wants the league to be 10
years from now," Howard said. "He is in
credibly supportive of his staff but is always
challenging you to find a better way to do
things."
For now, Burton is confident in Swangard
and a faculty of five other professors and in
structors in the center to bring the world of
sports marketing into the classroom and
provide future graduates with a strong foun
dation of knowledge.

Horoscope b
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 3).
You're looking good this year, and
opposites attract. You may get to
deal with situations you had previ
ously avoided. You may also choose
to abandon preconceived notions
you didn't know you had. The box
expands, and perhaps falls apart.
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 9 New opportunities beckon.
Which ones should you choose?
Here's a clue: The more you serve
others, the more will be returned to
you. Don't choose based on what
you want. Choose the option that
benefits the most people.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) _ Today is
a 5 _ There's a choice to be made
between two things _ one nearby
and one far away. If you need it
now, go with what's nearby. If you
can wait, the more distant item will
bring more excitement into your life.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) _ Today
is a 7 _ You can change because of
love, and so can somebody else.
Don't assume you'll always be the
same way you always were. That
goes for the other guy, too. It's even
more fun if you do it together.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) _ Today
is a 6 _ Put your nose to the grind
stone, your shoulder to the wheel
and your back into it. Now, from that
position, who can possibly expect
you to do anything? Just kidding.
You can have a very productive day
if you push yourself.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) _ Today is an
8 _ What appears to be a surprising
and perhaps unpleasant develop
ment can be a bonus in disguise.
Don't be too quick to judge. Let a
person who cares about you
explain, even if he or she is late.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) _ Today is
a 5 _ If you want to rip down walls,
now's the time to start. It shouldn't
/ Linda C. Black
be too hard. Some of them may
already have fallen down. Specific
areas of interest are your home and
your career. Make necessary
changes.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) _ Today is
an 8 _ The more questions you ask,
the more you'll discover. People
who ordinarily wouldn't say a word
could accidentally spill the beans.
Be gracious.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) _ Today
is a 5 _ How much of your money
will you have to part with, and what
will you get in return? This subject
should be of paramount interest to
you. You also want to maintain con
trol, of course.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) _
Today is an 8 _ You're brilliant, did
you know that? You could amaze
yourself with your insightful com
ments. Actually, you're also chang
ing. You're attaining a higher level of
enlightenment. Go with the flow.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) _
Today is a 6 _ The more you think
about it, the more you'll understand
what's real and what's hype, spin,
fluff or simply fantasy. It should
become obvious before the day is
over.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) _ Today
is an 8 _ Somebody you thought
you knew well could throw you a
curve. People grow and change
with time, but you never thought
you'd live to see this. It's a good
thing.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) _ Today
is a 5 _ Imagine yourself accepting
a challenge that's beyond your
present abilities. Then, picture your
self having a fabulous time as you
learn to do the task. In the movie
you write in your mind, you provide
a great benefit to all. Playing the
role will be easy. Get into it.
