Corning will face both teams, this The Cardinals finished 8-4 overall last season, falling to Sutter High School 36-7 in the D-II semifinals. The team's running game was fierce, averaging about seven yards per carry. But don't look for Studer to abandon what's made Corning a tough out for years. Studer said he could count on 100 yards from Holland and Whited, each, per game. And if one fell short the other would pick up the slack. This season, the yards will come by committee, Studer said. One game senior running back Cody Long could go big, or senior Colton Conoly.

A few unanticipated wins on the tennis court later, the 21-year-old American is rethinking her plans for her senior year at Stanford. At her first Grand Slam tournament, Burdette is into the third round. Her next opponent? Maria Sharapova. ''To end up here at the U.S. Open was a huge surprise,'' Burdette said after beat- ing Lucie Hradecka 6-2, 6-4 in the second round Wednesday. ''I never expected that at the beginning of the summer.'' Burdette figured she lost her only chance to qualify for the Open when she squandered a lead in the NCAA singles final in May — the college champion gets an automatic bid. She was aware when she entered USTA Pro Circuit events that she could receive a wild card if she earned enough points. But that wasn't why she signed up. ambivalent about playing professionally after finishing her last college season, and these tournaments were a way to experi- ence the life of a pro athlete. She wasn't sure how she would cope with the travel; she wasn't sure how her body would hold up. The 252nd-ranked Burdette was Turns out, she enjoyed the grind just fine. Oh, and as a bonus: She clinched that wild card into the Open. ''That wasn't even on my radar,'' she said. ''So it's been a crazy ride.'' Burdette easily could have faced a top- ranked player in the first round, but she got a favorable draw. She beat 308th- ranked Timea Bacsinszky of Switzerland, who got in on a protected ranking, 6-4, 6- 3 in her opener. Meanwhile, the 69th-ranked Hradecka, a Czech doubles specialist, upset 27th- seeded Anabel Medina Garrigues. Hradecka has never reached the third round at a Grand Slam event.
