As the events begin today at Hayward Field, talk among the track experts centers on who will take the title. Jim Rourke of Track and Field News picks Arizona State. Women’s Track World's Vince Reel favors Ne braska. What is clear, though, is as many as six teams may score in the 30- and 40-point range and fewer than 40 points may be enough to claim the title. Oregon coach Tom Heinonen favors Nebraska, Cal State Los Angeles, UCLA and “maybe Arizona State.” He, like other coaches and experts, knows that “all you need are three or four really great athletes” to win the meet. Cal State Northridge, the two-time defending champion, will be without the services of pentathlete Jodi Anderson who single-handedly scored 25 points for the Matadors last year. But Northridge still has sprint power with the addition of Andrea Lynch, a 1976 Olympic sprint finalist from Britain who has run 11.16 in the 100 and 22.69 in the 200. Northridge has a good chance at the title, but getting points in the sprints is always unsure and tough. Arizona State and Nebraska will also be counting on sprint points. ASU was last year’s run ner-up and can expect big points in the throws from two time AIAW discus champion Ria Stalman and high jumper col leen Rienstra (6-2). Nebraska, a newcomer to the top ranks of women’s track, has three impressive freshman capable of scoring at the top — sprinter Merlene Ottey, who has the top AIAW time in the 100 this year (11.0), Jennie Gorham in the 400 (52.86) and Sharon Burrill in the high jump (6-2). A resurgent UCLA will look for the relays for its points. The Bruins, who won AIAW titles in 1975 and 1977, are paced by freshman Gwen Loud (100, 200, long jump), Arlise Emerson (400, 800) and Linda Goen (800, 1500). Cal State Los Angeles, tradi tionally one of the top AIAW teams, should be in the top five again this year based on the talents of Yolanda Rich, the defending champion in the 400, and sprinter Jackie Pussey. North Carolina State will be in good position to make the top five with its trio of distance run ners — sisters Julie and Mary Shea, and Betty Springs. Julie is the defending champion in the 5,000 and was runner-up in the 3,000. Mary is the American record holder at 10,000 meters. springs nas a top time of 34:37.4 in the 10,000 this year. Though some other teams will not have the firepower to win the meet, they could still crack the top ten. Virginia has a balanced scoring arsenal with distance runners Margaret Groos and Aileen O’Connor, 400-meter hurdler Vivian Scruggs, a strong two-mile relay team and pentathlete Susan Brownell. Gross, the 1979 AIAW cross country champ, has the leading collegiate mark in the 3,000 this spring. Maryland might also be top ten material with Olympic high jumper Paula Girven, shotputter-discus thrower Mari ta Walton and distance runner Mary Walsh. Other teams and ahtletes to watch are Arizona with col legiate record holder Meg Rit chie in the shot put, Texas Women’s with two-time defend ing 100-meter champion Leleith Hodges, Texas Southern with sprinter Karen Hawkins and hurdler Linda Weekly, and Ten nessee with hurdler Benita Fitz gerald, shotputter Rose Hauch and 800-meter runner Delissa Walton.
