Photos by Gary Henley/The Daily Astorian Amanda Jacobs is seeking her fourth Oregon Coast Invitational Women’s Division title in the last five years. Elmes, Jacobs seeking tournament repeats Locals still in contention The Daily Astorian WARRENTON — Familiar names, tradi- tional matchups, locals advancing … and a few fantastic finishes Thursday at the Astoria Golf & Country Club, where golfers battled a stiff wind on the fourth day of match play in the Oregon Coast Invitational. With two days to go, they’re down to the semifinals in all divisions in the 107th annual tournament, which concludes Saturday. Golfers were talking about the strong winds in the afternoon, but that didn’t stop several from playing strong rounds to advance. There’s still a few defending champions in contention — namely Grand Champion champ Riley Elmes and Women’s title holder Amanda Jacobs. Elmes scored a victory over Daniel Ter- rell in a championship flight quarterfinal, along with Rex Puterbaugh, who defeated Jeff Canessa to advance to the Final Four. Anthony Arvidson will face Randy Tucker in Friday’s other semifinal. It was Throwback Thursday in the Women’s championship flight bracket, where Lara Tennant and Charisse Spada squared off in a quarterfinal, with Tennant surviving the round in the battle of the longtime friendly foes. It’s the 30th anniversary of Spada’s first championship in the invitational (1987), while the nine-time champion Tennant is back in the semifinals again, along with sis- ter Cappy Mack. Tennant will face defending champion Amanda Jacobs, who finished her Thursday quarterfinal match after the 11th hole; while Mack has the tough task of facing a golfer on a roll, medalist qualifier Gretchen Johnson from the Portland Golf Club. Johnson is coming off a 3 & 2 loss to Christina Proteau in the title match of the Pacific Northwest Women’s Mid-Amateur last weekend at Fairwood Golf & Country Club in Renton, Washington. Johnson has rebounded well, as she shot a one-over par in qualifying, and built a 4-up lead on Katie Sturgell after nine holes in Thursday’s round. Her best friend on the summer tour, Jacobs, is gunning for her fourth invitational champi- onship in the last five years.

Stevens was even with Michael Healy through 15 holes, then went 1-up on the 16th. Elsewhere, Gaylord Davis defeated Mike Graham to secure a spot in the Final Four of the Super Seniors’ championship flight, along with Peter Roscoe, Jeff Leinassar and Larry Wobbrock. Dismissed Oregon receiver Carrington signs with Utah DUII arrest cost him with Ducks By KAREEM COPELAND Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — Utah may have a new No. 1 receiver after former Oregon wideout Dar- ren Carrington signed with the Utes. The university confirmed Thursday that the senior is in Salt Lake City and will join the team but is not immediately able to be with the Utes on the field. Utah would not elaborate on the remaining hurdles to get him fully cleared as fall practices begin today. Carrington was dismissed from the Ducks two weeks ago, soon after he was arrested on a misde- meanor charge of driving under the influence. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound San Diego native steps onto the Utah team as the most experienced and successful receiver on the roster. Last season as a junior, Carrington had 43 catches for 606 yards and five touchdowns. He has 112 career receptions for 1,919 yards and 15 touchdowns. The Utes are plenty familiar with Carrington after he caught a game-winning, 17-yard touch- down pass with two seconds left last season for a 30-28 Oregon victory. Eugene Police have said Car- rington was arrested after hitting a pole at a McDonald’s restaurant at 3:15 a.m. on July 1. In addition to DUI, Carrington was cited for careless driving and making an improper turn. “It’s a case-by-case basis, you can’t treat every case the same because there’s differ- ent dynamics, different circum- stances,” Utah coach Kyle Whit- tingham said on the Pac-12 Network. “First thing you do is do your homework, talk to all the peripheral people in his life and people that have been close to him. … Is it a good kid that’s made some bad decisions? Or is it just a bad kid? “As a coach, you have to make that judgment. You’re not right 100 percent of the time. But you just (have) your gut feel and go with it.” Seahawks tickets go on sale Monday Associated Press Collin Andrew/The Register-Guard Oregon’s Darren Carrington, cen- ter right, is congratulated by team- mates Kani Benoit (29) Darrian McNeal, top right, after his third touchdown in Oregon’s spring NCAA college football game at Au- tzen Stadium in Eugene in April. SEATTLE — Seattle Seahawks tick- ets go on sale Monday — but the sale plan will be a little different than in the past. KOMO-TV reported that the team had big problems with the camping and wrist- band process last year — so that’s not allowed any more. This year, the line will start at 7 a.m. at the northwest box office, which will then open at 9 a.m. You can only buy four tick- ets at a time. More than 3,400 single-game tick- ets will be available per game. The Sea- hawks will sell half of those tickets, and the remaining tickets will be made avail- able online to members of the Blue Pride wait list. Seahawks training camp kicks off Sunday.
