Wenslow earns CoSIDA award
Oregon golfer Therese Wenslow was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District VIII At-Large second team Thursday.
The Bunkeflostrand, Sweden native was Oregon’s No. 3 golfer during the 2003-04 season, claiming a 77.1 scoring average. She carried a 4.02 grade point average in business administration this year.

White resigns from Oregon softball
Oregon assistant coach Mike White resigned his post with Duck softball Thursday, citing a desire to spend time with his family and pursue other interests, which includes running his investment company.
“This has been a great opportunity for me,” White said in a release. “To be a part of an Oregon program that has steadily become one of the nation’s top teams is an honor. There is a solid foundation and I have confidence in our pitching staff and our team that they will continue to build on what success we have started.”
The pitchers White tutored in his two seasons at Oregon include 2003 third-team All-American Andrea Vidlund and 2004 first-team All Pacific-10 Conference pitcher Ani Nyhus. Current sophomore Amy Harris set the single-season strikeout record with 180 in 2003, which was then broken by Nyhus with 202 this past season.
“Having Mike as a part of the rebuilding process was invaluable to our program,” Oregon head coach Kathy Arendsen said. “His experience as a premier player has helped develop continued success over the past two seasons and our players respect him. We hope to have him involved in our program as we more forward.”
White, who was born in Wellington, New Zealand, became a United States citizen in 1994 and went 2-0 with a 0.89 ERA for the USA team at the 2000 World Championships. That club earned a bronze medal.
White, 42, and his wife, Lisa, have three daughters: Nyree (11), Kenzie (8) and Sidney (7).
“Our family will stay in Eugene because we are happy here,” White said. “If it is possible, I would still like to stay connected with the Oregon program in some capacity.”
