Lacrosse: Fleming, Poponyak
endure injury-stricken season
Continued from page 13
letting Fleming and Poponyak do
most of the talking. But on the field,
Bradley is the Ducks’ most potent
offensive threat. She has scored in all
three of Oregon’s games and began
to see double teams on Sunday,
thereby opening up shooting lanes for
other players.
Fleming, a midfielder, has seen
most of her action this season
as a spark plug off the bench.
After breaking her nose last week
in practice, the former soccer star
immediately promised she would be
ready for the UC Davis game. Playing
with a small nose splint that restricted
her breathing, Fleming almost
single-handedly willed the Ducks
back into contention against the
Aggies with two second-half goals.
“This break-out game was
awesome for her,” Larsen said. “She
was really fired up.”
While all three girls have faced
the typical freshman-athlete struggles
of finding confidence and learning
new roles on a new team, Poponyak,
the verbal leader of the group,
has faced an additional hurdle after
injuring her knee.
The left-handed goalkeeper had
surgery Nov. 5 on her right knee
after tearing her anterior cruciate
ligament in fall workouts. Fortunately,
Poponyak had her girls at her side.
“It was really nice having them,”
she said.
i-:
Fleming and Bradley drove their
crutch-bound pal wherever she
needed to go and helped her around
her dorm. Poponyak has now thrown
herself into physical therapy and
looks forward to being cleared May 1.
“She’s done a wonderful job of
doing her treatment, keeping herself
in shape, getting herself stronger
and keeping her quickness up,”
Larsen said.
Interestingly, all three Ducks
struggled with their confidence after
arriving in Eugene.
“We really thought we’d be on the
bench, and none of us would play,”
Poponyak said.
Incredulous as it now sounds, they
were also worried about making the
travel squad.
“We were worried we could never
compete with (the east coast girls),”
Bradley said.
“We really had to show them that
they were actually qualified to be on
the team and quite good,” Larsen
said. “Getting that confidence and
having them believe was one of the
biggest things.”
With their best lacrosse still
ahead of them, the “Cali girls” have
overcome their limited experience
to become key players in the Ducks’
inaugural season.
“That’s the biggest upside is that
they have so much to learn ... about
the game,” Larsen said. “They have
some of the things you can’t teach.”

Why do some places
evoke deep feelings in
us while others leave
us cold? This course
will explore a range of
beautiful places from
around the world in
order to answer this
question. As such, it
offers a holistic view of
how great places are
made and why they
continue to evoke
deep feelings even
hundreds of years
later.
