Only the best finishing record of any sport in the history of UP. The team and its foUowers had high expectations going into the season and responded to those expectations accord ingly. After going to the Final Four in 1994, the team wouldn't setde for anything less than a championship appearand e in 199S. The Pilots started off the season with three back-to-back games. "The first weekend was a big week end for ns," said sophomore Wynne Mcintosh. "We were tired in the UConn game, and it was a big test for us right at the beginning. From then on out we knew what we had to do for the rest ofthe season." Another test for the women came in a tough home game against Duke. Freshman Kristen Eaton said, "We went into overtime with them, and then won (ill an amazing shot that helped us prevail." From there on out the Pilots coasted through the season. They captured the West Coast Conference tide and became the lirst UP women's team ever to have an undefeated season. Qli "We just came together and kept getting stronger with every game," said seiiu )r captain Shannon MacMillan. The women started off their playoff run with 1-0 wins over Washington and Maryland. Then, the Pilots faced Southern Methodist in the semifinals, and easily disposed of them 4-2. Next on the agenda was the Fighting Irish of Notre Hame in the NCAA Champion ship. It was an even battle tor most of the game, until Notre Dame scored offa questionable free kick that sunk the Pilots ship.

The Pilots, unranked when the season began, had its doubters. However, the team set out to silence its critics. The Pilots started off the season at a blistering pace, going undefeated in their first 14 games. "We just came together with good chemistry," said senior Khary Knowles. "We were able to get along and reach many of the goals that we set before the season started." The team, however, would face one of its biggest challenges in the latter half of the season when it was plagued with two consecutive losses to San Francisco and Santa Clara. "I think that instead of having a bad diet t on our team, it had a really good effect," said freshman Daniel Falcone. "It kind of put the season into perspec tive for ns, and we rebounded really well from that." The losses, while motivational for the team, set the Pilots back as far as confer ence play was concerned. The team ended up third in the WCC but still made the playoffs because of their stellar j record.

The 1995-96 basketball season served as a wake-up call for many Pilot men's basketball fans. The team ventured into the NCAA tournament for the first time in 37 years. The Pilots defeated Gonzaga in the West Coast Conference tournament championship, which earned them an automatic bid into the "big dance." The Pilots, however, began their tournament quest with an up and down regular season. They finished with a conference record of 1-1 and an overall record of 19-11. "We started off good, and towards the middle it got kind of rocky," said sopho more' Dionn Holton. "It brightened up at the end though, so overall it was a good season." After its inconsistent and often puz zling regular season, the team hoped to make a fresh start in the WCC tourna ment. The team came in as the fifth seed, and on paper appeared to be a long shot. The Pilots, however, believed in them selves. The)- pulled out a miraculous victory and were thrust into the spotlight before they even knew what hit them. The Pilots were led by all-tournament selections Holton, senior Lemont Daniels and tournament MVP junior Kweemada King. "That was something real big," said King.

Who were they you ask? They were the participants ofthe UP Intramurals program. The University offered various sports for athletes with different tastes. Some ol the sports included basketball, softball, soccer, floor hockey, volleyball and kickball. Freshman Sarah Bishop said, "I think intramurals are a great idea. They give serious athletes a chance to further their athletic careers, even if they don't play lor the college itself." Although the program is set up to be just lor fun, there were some pretty- heated battles in this year's activities. The level of competition was a lot stiffer than most people might have thought. Freshman Brian Harrigan was a referee for the program. "People complained a lot," he said. "Sometimes I felt like they expected me to be a professional ref. I even had to break up a light this year." When the UP men's basketball team was chosen lor the NCAA Tournament, UP also sen! a select group of intramural players to compete m the Pizza Hut Intramural Championships. The partici pants played against an intramural squad from Villanova, the same school that the Pilot men's team played against. Al though the men's team lost to Villanova, the UP intramurals team didn't. The) won their game quite convincingly, and moved on m the tournament where they eventually lost to a very talented Louis ville team. Sophomore Chad Oxford, a member ot the team, said, "It was a really fun time, getting to travel and all. It was nice because I got a chance to do something I wouldn't normally get to do." — by Dan Draper Tim Connelly Juliana Sr A Going in for the score! A I'm gonna get you!

As the staff scruti nized the activities ofthe University, the appointed Dedicatory Topic called for an internal and external exami nation of students, faculty and staff on The Environment: We Are All In It Together. It was our goal to merge the Dedica tory Topic with an overall look at life at the University of Portland in thematic coverage. The cover design attempts to reflect our investigation of University life. Designed by Sandy Wu and Pam Harris of Jostens, students are pictured underneath the academic paper with recycled overtones. It is printed in four-color, on lithocote, with 100 percent Tempo 349 Forest Green on natural paper with a 30 percent ghosted process color photo, gloss laminated and Bertho Imago Extra Bold font face. This 152- page book was printed on 9"xl 2" 80# glossy paper. About 1,500 copies of this book were printed by Jostens. The endsheets were created using PageMaker 5.0 andYeartech 5.0 on natural paper printed black with a different design on front and back. Volume 62 ofthe University of Portland Yearbook, The Log, was printed by Jostens Publishers inVisalia, Calif. Carol Cooper was our patient account executive at the Visalia plant. Kay Soliday served as our local Jostens representative and was assisted by Dena Napoli in the Portland region. Page layouts were created through the imaginative processes of Layout Editor Erin Krieg and Assistant Layout Editor Carrie MacGibbon. PageMaker 5.0, Pagemaker 4.2,Yeartech 5.0 and Word 6.0 were all used in layouts contained in this book. Typestyle used throughout this book was basic 12-point Joanna Regular. Captions were set in 10-point Joanna Italic and their kickers were 11 -point Joanna Italic. Arrows accompanying the captions were set in variations of 10-point Zaph DingBats "t" and photo credits were set in 10-point Joanna Regular. Folio art was created by Jostens in 4.2 and 5.0 versions. All copy was under the scrutiny of Copy Writer Angela Emery and Assistant Copy Writer Dan Draper. Divider page copy was the brainchild of Angela Emery and Kristie Mausen. Copy submitted by our numerous volun teers was greatly appreciated. Many thanks to The Beacon staff for letting us use copy that originally appeared in their newspaper. The Log/Beacon Staff Photographers contributed, took and developed most ofthe pictures in this book. The Photo Team consisted of Coordinator Tim Connelly, and team members John Shoul, Juliana Smith and Stephanie Hill. Steve Walker provided us with most ofthe sports team photos as well as statistics for the sports section. Jack Phelps of Columbia Photographic Studio took senior portraits. Thanks to students who submitted large numbers of personal photos, we have great diversity in the book and were able to represent the majority of campus pictorially. Color pictures were developed and enlarged professionally. The 1995-96 Log staff would like to thank these people for their assistance and guidance: • Kay Soliday, our Jostens representative, for putting up with late night phone calls and early morning panic attacks at the whim of the editor-in-chief. With as much as she called you on the cell phone, it is amazing you got to talk to any other school. Thanks for a great two-day whirlwind trip to California. • Dena Napoli, our representative assistant. You are the goddess ofthe computer. We can't thank you enough for telling us, "It's OK; that's just what it does." Come summer, the answering machine should quiet down. • Susan Tomaro, our adviser, for her objective point of view, grand words of wisdom and comforting shoulder to cry on--not to mention a great creative source for pictures in a pinch! Thanks for assuring us that sanity was not that far off. • Judy Dieringer, Secretary for the Office of Student Activities, for her uncanny knowledge of all happenings, all people and all events not only in St. Mary's, but all over campus. Next year we'll order big envelopes! • Dane Hobbs, Systems Manager, for his ability to keep a sense of humor in the thick of a crisis. Erin will name her first three children after you for all your assistance this year. • Steve Walker, for his punctuality with team shots and statistics. • From the editor-in-chief to the rest ofthe staff: I couldn't have asked for better support. Thanks for all your blood, sweat and tears, the book is truly memorable. You made my job a lot easier this year, and I hope in some small way, I helped you learn, grow and gain as much as I have. You are truly special people. Without the help of these people, this book would not be a success. lm> Gillan, Scott 23 Hayteas, David 48 Jayne, Patty 128 Gmitter, V 126 Hazeltine, Christie 66.
