— Oregon Head Coach Mark Helfrich and Athletic Director Rob Mullens will meet this week to discuss the future of the football program after the team finished their season Saturday with a 34-24 loss in the Civil War. The loss snapped an eight-game Civil War win streak for the Ducks.

— Emerald reporter Romaine Soh took a look at the impact five-time NCAA champion Track and Field athlete Edward Cheserek has had both off and on the track.
