IN BRIEF Kraayeveld nominated for Senior CLASS Award Oregon forward Cathrine Kraayeveld is one of 30 female senior college basketball players nominated for the Bayer Advantage Senior CLASS Award. The award, in its fourth year, is given to the nation’s best men’s and women’s senior play er in NCAA Division I basketball. The Senior CLASS — an acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School — started during the 2001-02 col lege basketball season with Sue Bird of Connecticut and Juan Dixon of Maryland winning the award. The athletes will be narrowed down to 10 in February. In March, during the NCAA tournament, fans all over the country will vote, com bining their choice with the votes of coaches and the media to determine the winner. Sportscaster Dick En berg, who had the idea for the award and serves as the Honorary Chairman, will announce the win ner during a CBS telecast of the HE & SHE I HE & SHE II ALBANY 290 River Rd , Eugene 720 Garfield, Eugene 1-5 EXIT 233, 3404 Spicer Dr. 688-5411 345-2873 541-812-2522 New Releases weekly VHS&DVD 5-day Rentals Over 3,000 MIPS gift cards available ADA accessible NCAA men’s Final Four.

We’ve got sports 24/7 www.dailyemerald.com New York Yankees do before deciding where he’ll play next year. The free-agent ace isn’t close to making a decision on where to sign, a person close to Martinez said Tues day on condition of anonymity. Martinez is likely to wait until the Yankees determine their level of in terest, which could hinge on whether they acquire Randy Johnson from Arizona in a trade that could send Javier Vazquez to the Diamondbacks. The Mets, trying to make a splash in the free-agent market, offered a $37.5 million, three-year contract last weekend, an agent with knowl edge of the proposal said, also on condition of anonymity. The offer contains an option for a fourth sea son that could make the deal worth $50 million over four years, the agent said. Boston has offered a two-year deal to retain Martinez and must de cide by Dec. 7 whether to offer salary arbitration, which would ex tend the window for the World Se ries champion Red Sox to re-sign him until Jan. 8. Martinez’s agent, Fernando Cuza, would not comment on the Mets’ proposal, which was first reported Tliesday in several New York and Boston newspapers. Yankees owner George Steinbren ner met with Martinez in Tampa, Fla., on Nov. 18, and Martinez also met in Florida with New York third baseman Alex Rodriguez. But the Yankees’ primary interest in recent days appears to be Johnson, the 41-year-old left-hander who would prefer to leave the rebuilding Diamondbacks and play for a con tender. The Yankees and Diamond backs have been discussing a trade involving the five-time Cy Young Award winner for several weeks. — The Associated Press Roetman: Willingham better off coaching somewhere else Continued from page 13 any other school. With those in charge wanting any reason to get rid of Willingham, the savvy head coach worked his magic during his first season and led the 2002 Irish to a 10-3 record, including a trip to the Gator Bowl. His next two seasons weren’t as successful, however, as the Irish went 5-7 and 6-5 respectively. De spite featuring a record similar to Davie’s (21-16) after three seasons, Willingham wasn’t allowed to prove himself during the final two years of his contract. If that doesn’t sound like a blatant attempt to dismiss a coach during a time of convenience, I don’t know what does. Willingham’s firing leaves UCLA’s Karl Dorrell and Mississippi State’s Sylvester Croom as the only two black head coaches in Division I-A football. There is something seriously wrong with that. While part of me feels bad for Will ingham and the way he got hosed, the rest of me rejoices as he is now able to take a job where he is wanted and more likely to succeed. Notre Dame lost a great head coach Tliesday. Fortunately, that means Willing ham will end up in a better place. jonroetman@ daily emerald, com To place an ad, call (541) 346-4343 or stop by Room 300 Erb Memorial Union E-mail: dassads@dailyemerald.com Online Edition: www.dailyemerald.com Room .300, Erb Memorial Union, P.O.
