■ Duck wrestling Civil War match in Oregon wrestling's sights After losing their Pac-10 opener to UC Davis last week, the Ducks look for a win over Oregon State BY SCOTT J. ADAMS DAILY EMERALD FREELANCE REPORTER The Oregon wrestling team finds itself with a bye this week and is preparing for its Civil War dual with Oregon State in Corvallis Dec. 10. The Ducks dropped their Pacific 10 Conference opener to UC Davis last Wednesday at McArthur Court with a close score of 26-22. Junior r. standout Shane Webster said he and his teammates wrestled well despite the disappointing loss. “It was definitely a let down for us,” Webster said. “We were snake bitten by injuries and guys not mak ing weight, but we did our best and it showed.” The Ducks were forced to forfeit three matches due to injuries 18 Gentlemen s Club Bring this coupon in for free cover any day this week 8pm-3am Wed-Sat 2251 Main Street in Springfield Fri., Dec. 3rd & Sat., Dec. 4th (8:00-3:00) Everything brand new & reduced at least 70%, ?j huge volumes of school supplies, home items, candles 1 & hair accessories, ideal for stocking stuffers, resale, or e-bay GRESS NORTHWEST - W. 13th and S.

Unlike Mitchell and Woods, Bracamonte saw time on the mat — he faced Frank Rich mond of UC Davis — before painful cramps forced him to retire late in the first period. Webster is undefeated this season and has made a name for himself in Oregon wrestling after red-shirting last year. Webster looks forward to wrestling Oregon State and said the Ducks have worked hard training for the game against the Beavers. “We’ve focused on conditioning this week and have done a lot of run ning,” Webster said. “Making weight and staying healthy are key for us right now.” Oregon head coach Chuck Kear ney said the team had much to gain and improve upon from its dual with UC Davis. “This was a match we can look back on and use as motivation,” Kearney said. “Our first task is to get healthy. We need to improve our overall conditioning and emotional toughness.” Sophomore Joey Lucas started the Ducks off strong as he recorded a 10 5 decision over Pancho Manriquez in the 125-pound weight class. With Martin and Woods absent from the dual, the Aggies took a 12-6 lead in the next two matches as they claimed six points from each forfeit. The early six-point cushion took pressure off UC Davis’ Daniel Murphree, who wrestled well against redshirt fresh man Stewart Bogart en route to a 17 2 technical fall in the 149-pound weight division. The Ducks bounced back when sophomore Cyle Hartzell (157) recorded a 12-5 decision over Cooper Fouch. Bracamonte’s ensuing forfeit left the Ducks trailing 23-9 go ing into Webster’s match at the 174 pound weight class. Webster continued his winning ways by etching an 18-3 technical fall over Daniel Price to keep the Ducks alive. The Aggies did not let up as Brandon Bear recorded an 8-2 decision over junior Chet McBee at the 184-pound weight division. McBee wrestled well, appearing un fazed by Bear, who reached the NCAA Championships last season. Bear’s decision sealed the deal for an Aggie victory in the dual — but the Ducks would not go quietly. Oregon senior Scott Barker cruised to a technical fall over Reed Shelger at the 197-pound weight class to im prove his overall record to 9-1. Sophomore Chris Dearmon closed out the dual with an explosive pin ning of Evan Hendrix in the heavy weight division. The two wins late in the dual brought the Ducks to within four, but their early forfeits proved critical as the Aggies prevailed with a 26-22 win. Women: Colonials fill three starting spots Continued from page 9 averaging 15 points per game. She missed last season’s matchup with the Colonials due to a knee injury she sustained prior to that trip. Mizusawa leads the conference with 7.5 assists per game this season. The Colonials had to fill three start ing spots this season. TWo of those be longed to Cathy Joens and Ugo Oha, who earned Atlantic-10 Conference of fensive and defensive player of the year honors, respectively. Returning Colonial starter Anna Montanana is averaging 13.5 points per game this season. The senior forward is an All-American candi date who led the Colonials in rebounds and assists as a junior. Redshirt senior Jessica Simmonds, who succeeded Oha, averages a con ference-best 1.75 blocks per game. Freshman point guard Kimberly Beck is second in the Atlantic-10 in assists with 4.75 per game. As a team, the Colonials are committing an average of 19 turnovers. George Washington is coming off an upset win over No. 24 Villanova on Wednesday. Simmonds recorded the team’s first double-double of the season. Last week, No. 1 Tennessee put 71 points on the scoreboard and held the Colonials to 41. “It seems like they’re playing some good teams, and they might be tired,” Mizusawa said. “We’re not worried about them. We’re just wor ried about ourselves staying in every game, playing defense and doing everything we have been doing for the last four games.” Center Andrea Bills emphasized that the Ducks need to stay aggressive this weekend and not get outrebound ed, as they did against Long Island. “It’s kind of like a road game,” she said. “We just want to carry our defensive intensity and just play team basketball. That’s our big fo cus right now. ” stephenmiller@dailyemerald.com ATTENTION! Be your own boss. Business solutions for new and existing entrepreneurs.
