Flingin’ Norwegians aid Pac-10 hopes
Reidar Lorentzen
International
boundaries are
blurred in track
and field. Ath
letes trek from
country to
country for a
place to com
pete, or a place
to stay.
Eugene is a
perfect place to
compete,” says
Frode Stormyr.
Stormyr was
talked into at
tending the
University this
year by fellow
Norwegian
Reidar Lorent
zen. The two
dominate
Oregon’s javelin
corps.
And heading
into the
Pacific-1 0 Con
ference
championships
this weekend
both have a good
chance to add
points to the
Oregon total.
"There is a lot
wi iaici ii uicic, oayo ui cy vj 11
weight coach Ray Burton. "We
think Frode will be able to come
in with a throw in the 250s.
Reidar is definitely the favorite.
"So we should finish, op
timistically, 1-3. Pessimistically?
I don’t think that way."
Oregon’s two javelin experts
have had an up and down
spring, however. Lorentzen
threw his season best in March
(265-0) and has been fighting a
back injury for most of the sea
son. He has yet to near his sea
son best of 286-6 set in 1979.
H Stormyr also has had a rough
i season. Although he threw
Frode Stormyr
more than 254 feet in 1980, he
has been unable to meet that
mark while at the University. He
finally topped 247 feet was set
last Saturday during the North
ern Division Relays.
"But the potential is there,”
Burton says of the freshman.
"He’s got a lot of potential.
We’re sure he’ll be the school
record holder within two years.”
Whether the two will be able
to overcome their mutual injur
ies is not one of Burton’s wor
ries. “They’ll be in there,” Bur
ton says. "If they can get
psyched up for this and really let
1
go — forgetting the pain —
they’ll throw their potential."
They'll have to do at least that.
Washington State’s Laslo
Babits threw 265-5 last weekend
to take the U.S. lead, and
Oregon State’s Rich Wolf is only
an inch behind Lorentzen at
264-11. Others in the hunt are
WSU’s Tom Diehl (259-8), Wa
shington’s Mike Mahovlich
(260-0) and Robert Moulder
(251-8) and UCLA’s Mark An
derson (253-9).
"This year hasn’t been liked I
hoped it would,” Stormyr says.
“I hoped to be able to throw in
the 250s, and I had my oppor
tunity last weekend. But if I can
get over 250 at the Pac-10s I’ll
score points.”
The potential for points is
there. With throws that rank
among the best in the Pac-10
this season, both athletes could
have an outstanding day during
Friday’s javelin competition.
There are some question
marks, though, about the meet
in Palo Alto, Cal.
For the first time this season,
Oregon’s javelin throwers will
be hurling off a grass surface.
Although it is a disadvantage
most Pac-10 throwers will face
— Stanford is the only Pac-10
school without an artificial sur
face — its effect on Oregon’s
throwers is unknown.
“Both of them have thrown on
grass,” says Burton. “But not
this year. I don’t know how it will
effect them.
“I’m not worried,” says Stor
myr. “Reidar should get off a
good throw, and maybe I will.
We ll just have to wait and see.”
