Women split twin bill
PSU one, Ducks one in softball action
In its first home games this
season, Oregon's women's
softball team managed to split a
doubleheader with Portland
State University Monday after
noon.
The Ducks dropped the first
game to the tough Viking squad,
which is picked as one of the top
teams in the nation, 3-0, before
coming back late in the second
game to squeak ~by with a 1-0
win.
Oregon got only one hit off
PSU in the first game and com
mitted three errors that PSU
traded into runs.
The Vikings finished the first
game with six hits and no errors.
But in the second game,
Oregon toughened up its of
fense as pitcher Terry Anderson
pitched a one-hitter.
The two teams remained tied
until the bottom of the seventh.
With runners on second and
third and only one out against
the Ducks, Portland State’s
pitcher threw a wild pitch.
The play proved costly as
Vicki Hogan was able to convert
the error into an Oregon run and
put the Ducks ahead 1-0.
"We were really pleased with
the way everyone worked," said
softball coach John Feeney.
“Portland is a much more ex
perienced team, they play
together on a summer league
team with the same coach and
the same starters.
"But we were able to hang in
there and pull one out against a
team we weren't suppose to
beat,” Feeney said.
The Duck women will travel
Thursday to the three-day
California Invitational tourna
ment.
Darkness delays ballgame;
teams deadlocked after 11
Oregon's baseball team
battled Willamette University
through 11 innings and a 9-9
standoff Monday at Willamette
before the game was postponed
by darkness.
Freshman catcher Dan
Alderman, playing his first game
for the Ducks, clubbed a two
run double in the sixth inning
and followed it with a solo
homer in the ninth.
Alderman’s home run began a
ninth-inning rally by the Ducks
that ended with a home run by
Steve Crum to tie the game at
7-7. Crum also hit a double in
the first inning to raise his
batting average to .411.
The Oregon left fielder has
compiled five doubles, eight
home runs and 20 runs batted
in.
After a scoreless tenth inning,
Seko surges at last hill
to win Boston Marathon
BOSTON (AP) - Toshihiko
Seko, a durable speedster from
Japan, avenged one of his rare
losses and ended old rival Bill
Rodgers’ domination of the
Boston Marathon Monday,
pulling away in the final five
minutes to win the 85th annual
classic.
Seko, who pressed Rodgers
to a course and U S. record two
years ago, shaved one second
off Rodgers’ Boston Marathon
mark by covering 26 miles, 385
yards in 2 hours, 9 minutes and
26 seconds. Seko's mark was
the fastest marathon ever run in
the United States.
Winner of the last three Fu
kuoka International marathons
in Japan although he con
centrates on shorter distances,
Seko put away Rodgers with
about six miles to go and then
wore down Craig Virgin.
Seko sprinted across the fin
ish line more than 250 yards
ahead of Virgin, who held on for
second place in 2:10:26.
Rodgers was third in 2:10:34,
failing to become the first run
ner ever to win the Boston
Marathon four consecutive
years.
Allison Roe of New Zealand
set a women's Boston Marathon
record in her debut. She ran the
route in 2:26:45, shattering the
record of 2:34:28 set by
Canada’s Jacqueline Gareau
last year.
Patti Catalano, the queen of
U S. women distance runners,
was second in 2:27:51, followed
by 1979 Boston winner Joan
Benoit in 2:30:15.
Oregon tried to put it away in the
eleventh with two runs, but
Willamette followed suit with
two of its own.
Oregon starting pitcher Jim
Hammack was relieved in the
sixth by Dan King, who gave the
mound to Bill Gwinn in the
eighth. Gwinn, by virtue of
Willamette’s 11th-inning rally,
will take the decision at this
point if the game is concluded.
Willamette scored its nine
runs on 10 hits; Oregon com
pleted its scoring on nine hits.
The Ducks return home today
to face University of Portland at
3 p.m.
