THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 2014 EMERALD PAGE 7  COVER What does it mean to be a feminist? “You would want to be an advocate for the ethical concerns of women.”

­— WADE LIPKE, PRE-MED, SOPHOMORE

“I think it means to be capable. Capable of anything.” ­ — TARA BARRON, PROPERTY MANAGER AT BELL REAL ESTATE

“I feel like everyone just has a different definition. I don’t know what mine is, but I don’t have a problem with the way other people see feminism.” ­— SAMANTHA DENSMORE, INTERNATIONAL STUDIES, SENIOR

“A feminist is someone that believes in equality of gender and that women should be treated equally to men in society… there’s a lot of negative representation and a lot of negative feminism, but I don’t think it has a negative connotation necessarily. It’s all situation.” — CHRIS BOYD, PRODUCT DESIGN, 1ST YEAR NON-TRADITIONAL

“To be able to be confident enough in yourself to be able to speak out about being proud, independent and confident in our womanhood.”

— GRACE HONEYWELL, UNDECLARED, FRESHMAN

“You can easily go to one extreme or another, but for me I would say that feminism means the fight for equality for all genders.”

 In February, Jason Calliste and the Ducks narrowly lost to the Wildcats. It will take a valliant effort for Oregon to defeat Arizona this time around.

Players to watch:

Oregon: Joseph Young and Jason Calliste Transfers Young and Calliste make up one of the better shooting backcourt duos in the conference and although Calliste doesn’t start, he’s usually in the game when it’s close in the end. If Young and Calliste can hit three-pointers and cause Arizona to expand its defense, it’ll give the Ducks’ post players more room to play down low and hopefully get Kaleb Tarczewski, Aaron Gordon and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson in foul trouble.

ARIZONA: Nick Johnson and T.J. McConnell Johnson and McConnell make up the best overall backcourt in the conference - if not the country - and they’re the catalyst for the Wildcats. The duo combined to shoot 7-for-25 from the field in the first meeting with the Ducks and a repeat performance will almost guarantee a loss by Arizona, especially with Oregon playing much better as of late. If Johnson can get into the paint for easy buckets and if McConnell continues to find the open man, Arizona will be just fine in this matchup. Matchup to watch:

Oregon The Ducks’ big men against the Wildcats’ big men. Waverly Austin, Mike Moser, Richard Amardi and Ben Carter are going to have to equal the play of Tarczewski, Gordon and Hollis-Jefferson of Arizona for Oregon to be successful. Austin and Carter are going against Tarczewski, while Moser and Amardi will have to prevent Gordon and Hollis-Jefferson from getting offensive rebounds. Limiting Arizona to only one shot per possession will be huge as Arizona grabbed 15 offensive rebounds in the first meeting that, more often than normal, led to a bucket or a foul.

When Brandon Ashley went down with a broken foot, the Wildcats’ frontcourt took a major hit in the depth department and now Arizona plays only a seven-man rotation with one substitute for both In the key the backcourt and the frontcourt. If the Wildcats get into foul trouble, the game will be ripe for Oregon’s hopes of making the NCAA tournament in March come down the taking as far as Oregon is concerned. to 40 minutes on a court in Eugene against the No. 3 team in the nation.

From beginning the season with another chance to pick up a marquee win and will at least keep the game so much hype and a top 10 ranking, to then go and lose five straight games close. Heading into the game, the Ducks will be right in the mix in regards to following their Pac-12 opener against Utah, the Duck’s couldn’t have taken a the NCAA tournament, so they will presumably bring all they have in a vital more drastic turn. It may have been a pleasant surprise to see this year’s team season ending game. In regards to the Pac-12 tournament, the Ducks are have the potential to make another deep run in the NCAA tournament, but capable of beating any team. The Ducks have shown they can compete with now it is merely a game of getting in. the best teams in a loaded Pac-12 conference. I would not be surprised if the Ducks won the tournament depending on the outcome of their last game against Arizona.

Young TALKS UCLA AND MOSER’S AWARD Before Tuesday afternoon’s Oregon men’s basketball practice, redshirt junior guard Joseph Young chatted with The Emerald, mainly about the previous week. He discussed the crazy end of regulation in Friday’s game against UCLA and his failed free throw attempt. Young also talked about Mike Moser and the forward’s award- winning performance last week.

What went through your mind Did your dad (who makes Young the moment UCLA’s David shoot 100 practice free throws Wear made his buzzer-beating for every one he misses in a three to send Friday’s game into game) make you shoot 100 free overtime? throws for making one this time?

Was there any panic or shock “More aggressive. Back to what he when Wear’s shot went in? was earlier this year, but he’s more aggressive on the rebounding. I’ve “I was shocked for like two seconds, seen him getting greedy on the and then I noticed it was a tie rebounding.
