Volleyball: Djuric, Russell
combine for 23 total kills
Continued from page 5
took a 21-14 lead in game three.
Oregon State called a time-out, and
returned with a six-to-two run to
pull within three, 23-20. Oregon led
27-24, before a five-point Oregon
State run was sparked by errors
from Djuric and Russell. Oregon
State used a Desma Stovall service
ace to overcome two late Oregon
points and clinch the match.
Each time Oregon had chances to
win games — mistakes and a lack of
cohesion replaced early success.
Djuric struggled to finish after good
starts, partly due to Oregon State’s
emphasis on blocking.
“We knew we had to stop the hit
ting power of Oregon, particularly
(Djuric),” Oregon State head coach
Taras Liskevych said. “She’s a great
player. That was the turning point
in the second game when we
blocked her several times in a row. ”
Oregon State received consistent
play throughout from Karah Rhoad
es, Brittany Cahoon, Kristin Murray
and Katelyn Healy. Libero Natalie
Hooper, a Roseburg High graduate
like Oregon’s Kristen Bitter, played
three games and had eight digs.
Rhoades had 12 kills, Murray 11,
Cahoon eight and Healy six.
This match, just like ones before
it, found Oregon at times the
challenger and at other times
the enigma that has troubled
Moore throughout conference play.
The same Oregon team that ar
guably peaked in beating San
Francisco has struggled to maintain
leads and finish games and,
consequently, matches.
“You can’t just keep doing the
same thing over and over and over,”
Moore said. “You have to find a
way, it’s that simple.”
Erin Little played two games and
part of a third with an injured ankle,
contributing four kills, nine digs
and a .364 hitting percentage.
Allyson Leavitt didn’t dress due to a
similar ankle injury. Alleman filled
in for Little after playing the previ
ous weekend in Los Angeles.
“Erin was great,” Moore said.
“Erin tried to gut it out and just
couldn’t hang in there the whole
way.”
Djuric had a match-high 14 kills,
but also had 12 errors. Russell had
nine kills.
Oregon wasn’t thinking long-term
afterward, but Liskevych said
Moore’s arrival means a more com
petitive in-state rivalry. Liskevych
coached the U.S. National Women’s
Volleyball Team from 1985-96.
Moore had an opportunity when
he was at Texas in 1997 to join the
National Team and chose to remain
in college athletics.
“Jim’s going to do a great job
building a really good program
there (at Oregon),” Liskevych said.

Soccer: Last-minute free kick
can't find the back of the net
Continued from page 5
the Trojans and knowing that we
should have won that game,” Nel
son said. “I like a physical game. I
like to play like that, and it’s fine
with me if they want to hit me.”
Tantillo struck again in the sec
ond half after re-entering the game
in the 78th minute. She sent in four
of her eight total shots, accounting
for nearly one-third of the team’s to
tal (23). Teammate Amy Rodriguez
added two shots of her own. Tantil
lo’s fifth shot broke the goal line
with just more than three minutes
left in regulation, sucking the noise
out of the crowd, but not the drive
out of the Ducks. Oregon battled to
the final whistle and even had a free
kick in the last 10 seconds from
roughly 40 yards out. The cross fell
harmlessly into a sea of cardinal
jerseys looming in front of USC’s
net. The Oregon faithful could label
the loss as a moral victory, but Er
ickson assured otherwise following
the game.
“We’re not playing for moral victo
ries by any means,” Erickson said. “I
want to win. Hopefully we can get
bodies healthy for Friday’s match and
maybe be ready with a full arsenal of
players. And maybe we’re a little
deeper now by getting some other
girls some experience and hopefully
that will help us out Friday. ”
Oregon travels to Corvallis Friday
for a Civil War match-up with Oregon
State. Erickson hopes to have mid
fielders Andrea Valadez and Cristan
Higa back in her starting lineup,
which was without the two on Sun
day for the third-straight game. Erick
son went to Taylor Callan and Sabri
na DeMonte to fill in for her injured
seniors. DeMonte is more accus
tomed to starting on defense, but
showed her versatility playing in
the midfield.
“It’s hard to replace two starters,
but I think I’ve done a decent job at
it,” DeMonte said. “Taylor’s doing a
great job filling in in the middle and
I’m happy about that.”
Friday’s game against the Beavers
kicks off at 3 p.m.
