SPORTS BRIEFING
BASEBALL
Beavers’ Mulholland named to watch list of top relief
pitcher award — Oregon State Beavers closer Jake Mulhol-
land has been named to watch list for the National Collegiate
Baseball Writers Association Stopper of the Year award, it
was announced Wednesday. The award honors the top re-
lief pitcher in college baseball. Mulholland, who earlier this
month became the Beavers’ all-time saves leader, has 39 in his
career, including nine this season. Mulholland has allowed
just two earned runs and 11 hits, while striking out 16, in 18
appearances so far this season. He boasts a 2-1 record with a
0.86 earned run average. Mulholland’s next save will move
him into a tie for third place with Oregon’s Jimmie Sherfy on
the Pac-12’s all-time list. The winner will be selected on June
19 in Omaha at the College World Series.
GOLF

uals not playing for a qualifying team advance to the NCAA

The Lava Bears defeated the Cougars
6-0 on Tuesday night for the team victory.
“I think we have played pretty well,”
said Montagne after winning her doubles
match with Johnston, 6-3, 6-2, Tuesday.
“It would be disappointing if we lost to the
people we have already beat. I hope we
keep winning.”
Johnston and Montagne quickly
formed a friendship during their fresh-
man year when they realized that they
would likely be paired up with one an-
other for the remainder of their high
school career.
Even though the pandemic canceled
their chances at making return trips to the
state tournament, the two continued to
compete against one another in practices
to improve their skills.

have connections off the court as well — it

Forming a strong bond on the court
did not just happen at practices. The two
are friends away from official practice and
competition, often playing tennis together
just for fun. They also have had some
heated battles on the ping-pong table.
“I definitely win more,” Johnston said
with a smile.
Although Montagne is quick to point
out that Johnston has the “home-court ad-
vantage,” because she has the ping-pong
table at her house.
What was apparent to Collier rather
early on is that their individual skill sets
mesh together nicely to form a formidable
doubles team.
“They complement each other really
well, with Marin at the net and Alex on the
baseline,” Collier said. “They are a lot of
fun to coach.”

Broncos acquire QB Bridgewater from Panthers —
New Denver Broncos general manager George Paton traded
a sixth-round pick in this weekend’s draft to the Carolina
Panthers in exchange for veteran QB Teddy Bridgewater on
Wednesday. Paton might not be done, either. The Broncos
own the ninth overall selection Thursday night and have
had their eyes on several of the quarterback prospects rated
a notch or two below Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence and BYU’s
Zach Wilson, who are expected to go 1-2 to the Jaguars and
Jets, respectively. Bridgewater became available when the Pan-
thers traded for former Jets QB Sam Darnold three weeks ago.

Pac-12
Continued from A5
Scott’s act left them dramatically behind
their peers when it comes to media-rights
revenue. It also left the conference with big
expenses, bad feelings and no momentum.
It wasn’t accidental that the football pro-
grams that rose to the top during Scott’s
tenure were outliers.
Oregon, backed by Phil Knight, for ex-
ample.
Utah, with its rabid fan base, for exam-
ple.
Washington with its exceptional donor
base, too.
Those operations were built to contend
in the Scott era not because of the Pac-
12 but in spite of it. Also, consider Mike
Leach and WSU had a fun little run of suc-
cess amid the downturn. He was the ulti-
mate outlier, wasn’t he? But what the con-
ference didn’t have was a consistent flow
of media rights money that helped it keep
from being left out nationally. Also, the
conference offices operated as if they were
more important than the members them-
selves, right down to the San Francisco
headquarters that set them back millions.
How bad was it?
Said one conference employee: “Coaches
that visited the conference offices couldn’t
even find a parking space.”
What the Pac-12 needs is a leader. One
who can walk into a room of his/her peers
and already have a strong understanding
of how the cheese is made. The conference
can’t afford a three- to four-year growth
curve while the new hire pokes around
and figures out how things work.
It’s why I’m hopeful one or two of the
presidents will pump the brakes today and
ask why they haven’t revisited some of the
candidates who already removed them-
selves. Ohio State athletic director Gene
Smith says he’s out? Find out what it would
take to bring Smith back in. Alabama ath-
letic director Greg Byrne says he’s happy
on his campus and not interested? Find
out if there’s a number that would make
Byrne even happier. And has anyone both-
ered to call Nebraska AD Bill Moos, who
worked at multiple Pac-12 universities?
The Pac-12 needs a leader, not an empty
suit.
I’d feel better if I was sure the Pac-12
Conference understood how vital this
hire is to its future. Right now, I’m not
sure the presidents and chancellors are
grasping it. Also, not sure they have col-
lective self-awareness. Not while they’re
considering a derivative of Scott mistake.
There’s a lot to sell here. There are a lot of
great things about the Pac-12, but I need
to know the presidents and chancellors
learned something from the last decade.
