Ducks aim for fifth place
But have only seven entrants
The Oregon women’s track
team will try and prove that
it’s not the numbers but the
quality that counts at this
year’s NCAA track and field
championships.
Oregon enters the national
meet with seven qualifiers —
the smallest number of
qualifiers it has had in five
years. But still, coach Tom
Heinonen remains op
timistic. Sure, a national
championship is out of reach
but a top five finish is not.
“Track and Field News is
picking us for 12th place and
I’d certainly be happy with a
top 10 finish,” says
Heinonen, who was named
NorPac Conference coach of
the year last week.
Last season, Oregon
finished fifth in the national
meet with 66 points with
eight different people scor
ing points. Of those eight,
just four return this season
— Ranza Clark, Claudette
Groenendaal, Kathy Hayes
and Kim Roth. Those four,
though, are expected to
make major contributions in
Oregon’s charge for a top
five bid.
Heinonen can only cringe
at the thought of what things
would be like if he had a
healthy team this season.
Athletes like Leann Warren,
Quenna Beasley, Grace
Bakari, Sally Harmon, Rosa
Gutierrez and Shari Collins
all will be on the sidelines
this season due to injuries.
“That’s a lot of points sit
ting there,” Heinonen says.
“But the good thing is that
they will all be back next
year.”
But the Ducks still have a
number of individuals who
will be contenders in this
year’s national
championships.
Clark and Groenendaal,
two of the Ducks’ middle
distance mainstays, are two
of the key ingrediants for
Oregon. Both are entered in
By Steve Turcotte
the 800 and there is the
possibility that Clark may run
the 1,500, an event she won
at last year’s Pan American
Games.
Track and Field News has
Groenendaal finishing fifth
and Clark seventh in the 800.
But they way they have been
running of late, their perfor
mances could be much
better.
“The 800 will probably be
the best race,” says
Heinonen. “It should be an
exciting race because it
looks like Claudette can run
faster than 2:02. There will be
plenty of people around to
pusn ner.
Groenendaal, who was
12th in the 1,500 last year at
NCAAs, is expected to dual
with Joetta Clark, the defen
ding champion, in the 800.
Not only have those two
posted fast times, but a
number of others have too,
including Tina Krebs of
Clemson with a 2:02.64.
If Clark doesn’t run the
1,500, Kim Roth will be the
lone Ducks entrant. Roth,
who was ninth last year in
the NCAA meet at 1,500, is
on the comeback trail after
starting the season with an
injured leg.
Eryn Forbes, the redshirt
senior, is entered in the
10.000 and should score for
the Ducks. And Kathy Hayes,
the second-place finisher in
the NCAA 5,000 last year, is
expected to run the 5,000 but
Heinonen may alter the
scheme of things some.
“Kathy and Eryn will be
entered in both the 5,000 and
10,000,” Heinonen says. “If
Kathy runs the 10, she could
come back and run the 5
later. We don’t know yet,
though.”
Deanna Schielder, the
freshman from Kennedy
High School in Mt. Angel,
Ore., has qualified in the
3.000 but is not expected to
score.

Can Oregon catch WSU?
Opinions differ among coaches
There will be one constant
this week for the Oregon
men’s team while it com
petes in the NCAA track and
field championships.
Will the Ducks be able to
catch the Cougars of
Washington State for the
NCAA team title?
Track and Field News says
no, picking the Cougars to
score 114 points to the
Ducks’ 93.
Oregon coach Bill Dell
inger says the Ducks have a
chance, but that the Cougars
should be considered the
“clear favorite.”
And the coach of the team
everyone is talking about —
Washington State — says in
no uncertain terms that the
Ducks should be favored.
“They’ve got so many solid
points,” says Cougar coach
John Chaplin. “I can easily
see them scoring 100.”
The meet title will pro
bably be decided in the
distance events, where both
Oregon and Washington
State are loaded with quality
runners. However, the Ducks
have an edge because while
Chaplin will be doubling all
of his best distance runners,
Dellinger will be sending his
Ducks into battle fresh.
Track and Field News says
Oregon is favored to win
three individual titles — the
800, the 1,500 and the 5,000
— and score heavily in the
javelin, pole vault, hammer,
and 1,500.
While ten different Oregon
athletes are picked to score
at the NCAA meet, the
Cougars are relying on the
legs of three distance run
ners — Peter Koech, Richard
Tuwei, and Julius Korir — for
61 of their points. Koech will
be attempting a 5,000-10,000
double, and Korir and Tuwei
will both be trying for a
steeplechase-5,000 double.
That could backfire, says
Dellinger.
By John Healy
“I didn’t think Koech and
Tuwei looked that good at
the Pac-10. And we have bet
ter NCAA depth than last
year,” Dellinger says.
Chaplin couldn’t agree
more. “It’s always shaky in a
big meet to double your run
ners to try and win.”
It’s doubtful Dellinger will
have to worry about shaky
performances from his two
best distance runners,
sophomore Joaquim Cruz
and senior Jim Hill. Cruz,
perhaps the hottest middle
distance runner in the coun
try right now, won the 800 at
the NCAA meet last spring in
1:44.91. Two weeks ago, he
won the Pac-10 800 in
1:45.12, his fastest time this
year. His fastest 1,500 race
this year was at Berkeley in a
dual meet against Cal. Cruz
clocked a PR 3:37.72, but
then three weeks later at the
UCLA Pepsi meet he ran a
3:53.00 mile to finish second
to Steve Scott.
While Cruz is practically
untouchable, Hill might be
pressed if Chaplin decides to
enter Korir in just the 5,000,
or if the University of Texas
El Paso’s Gidamis Shahanga
decides to forego the 10,000
the day before. But even if
both were fresh, Hill might
still be unbeatable, consider
ing his new-found kick and
his proven ability to stay with
a tough pace.
Track and Field News also
picks junior Brian Crouser to
finish second in the javelin;
Ken Flax to grab seventh in
the hammer; Kory Tarpenn
ing to place fifth in the pole
vault; Dub Myers to take third
in the 1,500; Chris Hamilton
to grab eighth in the 10,000;
Don Ward to finish 10th in
the intermediate hurdles;
and John Zishka to place
12th in the 5,000.
Lamar Hurd, tabbed to
finish 10th in the 110 meter
high hurdles, hasn’t recoved
from a leg injury and isn’t
entered in the NCAA meet.
But the Ducks may not feel
the loss.
