ran kings, but they are remaining
focused on their primary goals.
"My goal is just to peak for the
WAC Tournament," said Smith.
Keskinov adds, "We all have
the goal of playing in the NCAA
Tournament."
FSU: Dooley
to lead 'Doge
Parage will head the attack in the
5,000 and 10,000 meters. The S-2,
96-pound Farage won the 10,000
meters at the WAC Championships
last year with a season-best
37:31.83.  -
Hurdles: Missick, last season's
WAC champion in the 100-meter
hurdles, is Fresno State's top hope¬
ful in the event, while Lisa Collett
and Cole rank third and fourth re¬
spectively all-time at FSU. *
Freshman Ardin Harrison fig¬
ures to make an immediate impact
in the long hurdles.
Jumps: The Bulldogs should
be in good shape with Jackson in
the long and triple jumps. Jackson
owns the FSU long jump record
with a leap of 20-41/2 and ranks
fifth all-time in the triple jump (39-
73/4). Cole also adds depth to the
event
Senior Kim Moshier will be the
top competitor in the high jump,
while Annemarie Travis, Susan
Conlan and Amy Cheii add depth.
Throwers: This is Pagani's big¬
gest area of concern with the loss of
several seniors from last year's jav¬
elin, shot put and discus corps.
He will count onf reshman Staci
Darden and sophomore Krista
Morales to step up and should get
help from heptathletes Collett and
Rachel Hudson.
Heptathlon: Collett is the top
returnee and goes into the season
with a PR of 4,759 points in the
event, No. 4 on FSU's all-time list.
Hudson will provide depth to an
area for FSU that is stinging from
the loss of Bauer, the Bulldogs'
record-holder in the heptathlon.
"I don't have any doubts that we
can finish as high as second again,"
Pagani says.
"It's a mixed kind of situation
because we're improved in some
areas and not in others. So what's
going to have to happen is our lead¬
ing athletes are just going to have to
pick up the slack and come through
a little bit more."
Bulldog Bites
Wrestlers to face Cal Poly-SLO
By Chris Cocoles
THECOLLEGIAN
Though his wrestlers are a bit banged up, Fresno State coach
Dennis DeLiddo is in a familiar position.
FSU (12-5 in dual meets, ranked 1 lth) sported the same record at
this point in 1993. That team went on to a Western Athletic
Conference title and a school best, eighth-place finish at the NCAA
Championships.
The Bulldogs continue a sue cestui, four-match homes tand with a
dual meet against Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo Wednesday night at 7
p.m. at the North Gym.
"I hope we end up just like last year. If we win our last four duals
we'll finish 16-5 again. And we'd like another WAC championship
and eighth place at the NCAA's," DeLiddo sajfl. That would all have
to be coincidental though, and we're struggling with nagging injuries
and youth."     \ .
The most serious of those injuries will keep heavyweight Zack Rix
aut of action for at least a week. Rix (17-8) is suffering from a hand
injury. Several Bulldogs are also feeling sore but will remain active.
Cal Poly (7-5) bat wqn four consecutive dual meets, including an
18-16 decision over Brigham Young, who lost to WAC rival FSU 27-
5 last Saturday. The Bulldogs (3-0 WAC record) defeated the
Mustangs 21-12 last season.
"I don't know what to expect (from Cal Poly)." DeLiddo. said.
"Thev could give us fits or we can get through without much trouble.
But tney match up very well with us."
The best match of the evening could bring together two 150-
pounders ranked in the top 12 nationally. Fresno State's Terry Watts
(2f>8) and the Mustangs' Jake Gaeir are ranked 12th and fifth,
respectively in their weight class.
The Bulldogs travel to the San Francisco Tournament on Saturday,
when the best teams in California will Wrestle for Golden State
bragging rights.
Fresno State is the only California school ranked in the latest
Amateur Wrestling News Top 20 poll.
"We feel like we're the best program in the state, and we want to
go up (to San Francisco) and prove it," DeLiddo said.
Women's Tennis: Bulldogs to face No. 2 Stanford
The Fresno State women's tennis team will have their hands full
-today whenthey dual #2 nationally-ranked Stanford in Palo Alto.
The Bulldogs started the season playing in the hot Hawaiian sun
from January 18-20, andreturned home, taking twoout of three. After
tallying off victories against B righam Young University of Hawaii 6-
3 and Hawaii 5-2. FSU fell to BYU 6-2. The Cougars, not to be
mistaken with the BYU team from Hawaii.entered the dual meet
ranked 17th in the nation.
* Indivisually, freshman Marta Pitarch leads the team with six wins.
Pitarch, a native of Barcelona,Spain, defeated Evi Koljanin for the
only indivisual FSU victory against BYU.
