‘Drowning machine’ dam can come out, city says — if there’s money
If crews get the money to dismantle a dangerous dam in the Willamette River between Eugene and Springfield, they’ll first have to build another dam. This one at least would be temporary, unlike the Millrace Low Head Dam itself. That nearly century-old dam from a bygone era of energy infrastructure lurks below the surface, and for years it has trapped kayakers and floaters passing through. Dams like this are often called “drowning machines” because of their powerful recirculating currents that swirl like a washing machine.

Former Duck QB Austin Novosad throws 3 TDs in 1st career start
In three seasons with the Oregon Ducks , quarterback Austin Novosad stuck around, awaiting his turn to start. The four-star passer from the 2023 class competed with Dante Moore for the starting nod in 2025, but was beat out and ultimately entered the transfer portal after the season having completed 12-of-15 passes for 99 yards as a Duck. Novosad soon committed to the Bowling Green Falcons, getting a fresh start and looking to compete for the starting job during his junior campaign.

A longtime Oregon commit, Lincoln announced the Ducks as her college choice last October. During her decorated prep career, Lincoln rewrote the Oregon cross-country and track and field record books. Earlier this fall, she broke the state's all-time 5K record with a personal best of 16:13 at an invitational in Arkansas. Lincoln holds track and field state records for the 1,500 (4:07.06), mile (4:27.65) and 3,000 (9:06.61).
