He also has thrown the shot this year four feet better than last season by posting a personal-best 66-7 in the shot put.

The Crousers will be joined by Kent Lander holm (177-11) and Steve Davis (164-4) in the discus, and Lan derholm (192-2) and Eric Hohn (190-5) will be the mainstays in the hammer throw, and hope to be high scorers in the Pac-10 meet Sophomore Erode Stormyr (254-0) will try to fill the shoes of last year's NCAA runner-up in the Javelin, the Ducks' Lorent zen Stormyr himself advanced Women Continued from Paga 10 enough firepower to Keep up with us in team score, but they will be competitive in a few events Going just by previous lifetime bests. Heinonen predicts that the shot put. 800, and long jump will be close But on the whole he is taking a wait and see atti tude, unsure of what WSU is capable of Heinonen noted that it might be easy for many of the Ducks to look past WSU to next wee kend's match with last year's No 1-ranked dual team, UCLA "We don't want to look at the WSU match as a tuneup at all. but we do know that UCLA will be extremely tough next wee kend Our performance against Washington State will depend a lot on the weather If it's good then we’ll probably run to set good times Otherwise we’ll just try to win the meet " Eryn Forbes will be held out of the meet because of the stren uous races she had last week, giving her a chance to rest up for the Bruins. An exhibition hammer throw will take place following the meet in what Heinonen calls "a special, novelty event.” It will be the first time that women have ever thrown the hammer com petiveiy at Hayward Field through the qualifying round of the NCAA meet last year, where he threw the javelin 222-9 Hurd, the so phomore horizontal jumper who is expect ed to be out for a month, should be a real asset to the Ducks if he can return in good health. Hurd celebrat ed his freshman sea son by extending the Oregon triple jump record to 51-9% and setting personal best four times in the long jump. Last year, ham pered by a heel injury, he finished tenth in both events at the Pac-10 meet. Transfers Robert Hannon (23-6) and Isaac Freeman (23-2) should help Oregon in dual meets in the long jump.

The Ducks have not the quality of vaulter they grew ac customed to in recent years.
