	After blowout loss, Ducks find redemption against Cal, 92-70 by Kevin Hudson Things looked bleak for Ernie Kent's squad after Thursday's historically inept showing at Stanford, but the Ducks pulled off an amazing offensive performance Saturday, salvaging their Bay Area trip - and maybe even their season - by trouncing the California Golden Bears 92-70 at Haas Pavilion in Berkeley, Calif.
	Oregon drops sixth straight game Ducks suffer second straight blowout to a Bay Area school by Jeffrey Dransfeldt All Kaela Chapdelaine could do was sit there and watch. She picked up her fifth foul in the last two minutes scrambling for a loose ball. Her pained expression told a lot about another frustrating afternoon for the Oregon women's basketball playing without the urgency of a team striving for postseason play.
	Kaela takes charge Kaela Chapdelaine brings grit, versatility to Ducks by Jeffrey Dransfeldt Kaela Chapdelaine came to Eugene five years ago as a point guard. She'll complete her Oregon career as a versatile role player who has played every position except center. Not that she's going to complain. "It's every point guard's dream to back someone up and dunk it," she said.
	Ducks leave seeing Cardinal red In brief by Jacob May Oregon was unable to reverse history, losing for the 22nd time at Stanford against the Cardinal, this time in disconcerting fashion. The Ducks (13-9 overall, 4-6 Pacific-10 Conference) lost 72-43, their lowest point total since losing to Montana 78-39 on Nov.
	Cardinal abuse: Ducks can't sieze Mac Court momentum Led by All-American guard Candice Wiggins, Stanford takes a 46-12 halftime lead and never looks back by Jeffrey Dransfeldt The way the Oregon women's basketball team played in the first half Thursday, it seemed like a scrimmage was taking place inside McArthur Court. The crowd of 2,515 was almost completely silent as Stanford's potent lineup relied on the hot hand of guard Candice Wiggins to take a commanding 46-12 halftime lead.
	History, tradition taken to the mats Oregon faces their toughest test yet in No. 3 Oklahoma State by Doug Bonham Oklahoma State wrestling is kind of a big deal. The No. 3-ranked Cowboys (13-2-1) bring credentials that no other professional or collegiate sports team can claim: 34 NCAA team championships, 132 individual NCAA champions, 228 individual conference champions, and 418 all-time All-Americans.
	No longer starting, Catron shows he's a team player In my opinion \| Old school by Kevin Hudson On the heels of a disappointing first half of conference play for the Ducks, Oregon coach Ernie Kent has decided to rethink his starting five and substitution strategy. Sophomore forward Joevan Catron was announced enthusiastically by Kent in the preseason as the fifth piece of the starting lineup, and it's not hard to imagine the most passionate Duck player earning that spot in practice.
	Women refuse to play by Cardinal rules in Bay Area Oregon's seniors-the first-ever lacrosse recruits-have never beaten Stanford in California by Andrew Greif If you ask the Oregon women's lacrosse players to name the defining moment of last season, they won't mention the team's second-place conference finish, its best record in the team's young history or their head coach being named conference coach of the year.
