Other full teams competing be sides Oregon will be Oregon State and Seattle Pacific College. Par tial squads will come from Port land Community College, Lane Community College, Central Oregon Community College, Clackamas County College, the Oregon Track Club and Linfield. “Seattle Pacific will be the toughest competition,’’ says Tom Heinonen, assistant track coach. “This meet will be the time to find out how good we really are and the time to evaluate our com petitors.” According to the Duck coach, Seattle Pacific is sending two po tential Olympians — Sherron Walker and Pam Spencer. Walker has a personal record of 21-2 in the long jump and Spencer holds a 6-1 in the high jump. OSU is sending the other standout — Joni Huntley. Huntley, the American record holder in the high jump, has gone 6-2 %. Heinonen estimates that altogether sixteen women will be competing who are expected to be at this year’s Olympic trials. Mary Officer will be a Duck strength.

Karen Marshall, fourth in the 1975 AIAW shot put, tenth in the AAU shot and seventh in the AAU discus, will be another Oregon strong point. Marshall, who holds the University shot put record at 46-2, has been throwing nearly 45-0 indoors and holds a personal best of 146-7 in the discus. Her strongest competition will be SPC's Marcia Mecklenburg, who has a personal best of 49-3 in the shot and 156 in the discus. Distance runners, however, are providing Oregon s depth this year.
