sports_ _ Ducks get ahead early and beat OSU, 94-69 By MARK STEWART Of the Emerald After sweeping the first three events of the meet, the men’s track team coasted to a 94-69 win over the hapless Oregon State Beavers, Saturday, at Hayward Field. Oregon coach Bill Dellinger said the meet would not be a runaway for the Ducks, but by sweeping the hammer, shot put and steeplechase, Oregon State was in a hole it could not dig itself out of point-wise. The Beavers ac tually out-pointed Oregon 69-67 after the first three events, but just did not have the personnel to keep even with the Oregon weightmen and distance runners. The Bea vers did show some prowess by finishing 1 -2 in the long jump, high jump and 400 and 1-3 in the high hurdles. Weightman Dave Voorhees \ t « Si - finished second in the shot behind teammate Jeff Stover, then stole the show in the discus ring, throw ing for a lifetime best 205-0, which is the best collegiate mark in the country so far this year. Stover finished third in the hammer in addition to winning the shot with a lifetime best throw of 63-10, beating the personal re cord he set last week by six in ches. “I get myself worked up to throw a PR (personal record) every week,” said Stover of his shot per formance. “It’s good we (he and Voorhees) have competition. If he hadn’t thrown that far (61-9) I wouldn’t have either.” Ron Perkins, who finished sec ond in the hammer with a throw of 182-7, his personal best, became the third Oregon hammer thrower to qualify for both the Pac-8 and NCAA meets. Chris Goodrich provided a sur prise in the 100, filling in for Don Coleman who is still side-lined with muscle spasms, by finishing second to Andrew Banks in a lifetime best time of 10.63. Good rich also would have set a per sonal record in the high hurdles if it hadn’t been for excessive wind. “My leg is better,” said Cole man, who will probably not run again until the Pac-8 meet. “I will put all my money in the Pac-8 and try not to go broke.” Greg Walton ran for the first time in three weeks, but in the 800 instead of the 400 where he had run previously. In the first 800 of his career, Walton ran 1:52.96, a second and a half slower than the Pac-8 qualifying time. "I was not pleased with the run, I wanted someone to go out and lead,” said Walton. “It felt com fortable for the first time I’ve ever run it. I feel really good about it. I feel I can get 46.0 in the quarter (mile) but I don’t have 21-22 sec ond speed. I feel I can be a threat in the half (mile).” Matt Centrowitz qualified for the NCAA and AAU meets with his 13:48.41 time in the 5000. “It was just a fun run, I ran a relaxed pace,” said Centrowitz. “I had to run it like a time trial. If that felt hard, I’m never going to win the AAU.” Hammer — l, John McArde, Oregon, 194-8. 2, Ron Perkins. Oregon. 182-7. 3, Jeff Stover. Oregon. 177-9.

Tuttle’s final count of 210 tied him for fifth place individually along with teammate Brent Murray, who again played well, carding sub-par rounds of 68 and 69 in the first two days of the tournament. Although USC will be playing on its home course, a course none of the Ducks have ever seen, and USC finished ahead of Oregon Saturday by no means counts Oregon out. Oregon finally got solid play from everyone, includ ing top men Jeff Sanders (69 on Saturday). Scott Krieger’s even par 72 gave the Ducks a team total of seven under par on the final day, which was the best score posted by any team for Saturday.

The team total was an unbelievable 42 shots better than its best performance of the past. In regard to the next two days in Los Angeles, Oregon Coach Jim Fergusen wouldn’t make any pre dictions on the Duck’s chances against USC. “It should be a really close tour nament, sort of an endurance con test because we play 36 holes each day. It will probably come down to who is strongest at the end.” Sprinters lead women on a rout By CHRISTY BODE Of the Emerald Oregon’s female sprint depart ment captured the limelight in a dual meet on Saturday at Hay ward Field, as the women beat OSU by a score of 97-29. Talented speedsters Debbie Adams and Melanie Batiste cros sed the tape to finish first and sec ond in the 100 and 200 meter dashes, slashing University and meet records and qualifying for the AIAW Championships in the process. “The sprinters outstood everyone. It was a good day; the sun was shining, so they just went out and did it,” beamed coach Tom Heinonen. “They have been hammering away for seven months.” Adams’ times of 11.65 in the 100 and 24.08 in the 200 meters possible rank her sixth in the na tion. Heinonen indicated that there are strong possibilities of Adams reaching the finals at the nationals in her sprint specialties. “There are some real classy runners but she can make things happen. They (Adams and Batiste) ran times today that they never ran before,” he confirmed. Adams and Batiste then joined Dawna and Georgene Rose, qual ifying for the AIAW meet in the 440 relay, smashing both the field and meet records. Later, the Rose sis ters each chalked up individual record wins in the 400 and 400 meter hurdles.

Patty Kearney upset OSU freshman Kitsy Hall, the na tional prep holder and early favo rite in the javelin. Kearney set a new meet mark of 148-1, qualify ing for the nationals by more than eight feet. In the discus, Kathy Picknell beat teammate Stevenson and the Beaver’s Jean Melson, tos sing 1 49-1 for a meet record which also qualifies her for national competition set for May in Knox ville, Tennessee. For a different twist, Ellen Schmidt, who usually runs the 800 and 1,500 meters, entered and easily won the 3,000 meters in 9:56.3. Although Schmidt’s time was under the national qualifying standard, she had hoped to finish in a time closer to 9:40. “It was a different race. This race is kind of a mind trip because in the 800 you have no time to think but in the 3,000 you have to think,"she said. Long lump — 1. Joan Walton.
