Men harriers finish fourth in Pac-10 meet
By Tim Sullivan
Of the Emerald
The Oregon men’s cross
country team had a more dif
ficult time than expected Mon
day, placing fourth at the
Pac-10 Conference Champion
ships in Palo Alto, Calif.
Led by Tom Ansberry’s first
place finish, the University of
Arizona captured the team title
with 44 points. The meet was
suppose to be a confrontation
between Arizona and Oregon
for the league title, but the
Ducks could only muster one
top-ten finisher while the
Wildcats had four.
“It didn’t go very well for the
rest of the team,” said Chris
Hamilton who was the lone
bright spot for the Ducks with a
second-place finish behind
Ansberry.
Oregon finished with 82
points, trailing second-place
Washington State University
(73 points) and third-place
UCLA (75 points) in the team
standings.
Despite the disappointing
team finish, Hamilton came up
with an outstanding individual
performance with a 30:23.1
time over 10,000 meter course.
“I was kind of happy,” said
Hamilton of his second-place
finish at the Stanford Golf
Course. “1 usually don’t run
hills very well.”
The Stanford course is known
for its hills, and Hamilton felt
they played a big influence in
Oregon’s fourth-place team
finish.
. "We are a team that runs bet
ter on flat courses,” said
Hamilton who turned in his best
peformance of the season for
Oregon coach Bill Dellinger’s
squad.
But after Hamilton, the Ducks
couldn’t place anyone near the
top as Matt McGuirk finished a
distant 16th. McGuirk’s time of
31:25.0 was nearly a minute
*
behind Hamilton’s over the
10,000 meter run.
“I’m not sure of the pro
blem,” said Hamilton of the
Ducks’ disappointing team
finish. “Our guys were just not
into (mentally) it.”
Juniors John Zishka and
Harold Kuphaldt also were out
of the race finishing 20th and
22nd respectively. Dan Nelson
concluded the Ducks’ scoring,
placing 24th in 31:43.8.
First-time particpants Dub
Myers and Doug Benevento
were the final Oregon runners
in, finishing 37th and 40th in
the race. Myers was running in
his third collegiate cross coun
try meet of his career and finish
ed with a time of 32:24.6.
Oregon’s Mike Blackmore
and Tracy Garrison did not
compete in the meet. .
The harriers next race will the
Region 8 meet on Nov. 10 in
Tuscon, Ariz.
ibeahawks whitewash San Diego, 24-0
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Dave
Rrieg passed for 282 yards,
Steve Largent caught three
touchdown passes, Kenny
Easley had three interceptions'
and the Seattle Seahawks
pasted the San Diego Chargers
24-0 Monday night.
The Seahawks’ swarming
defense sacked Charger quarter
back Dan Fouts six times, forced
three turnovers and handed San
Diego its first shutout since a
7-0 loss to Denver in 1979. Seat
tle improved to 7-2, good for a
second-place tie with the Los
Angeles Raiders, one game
behind the Broncos in the rugg
ed AFC West.
The Chargers played without
injured receivers Kellen
Winslow and Wes Chandler and
used No. 2 tight end Pete
Holohan sparingly. San Diego
fell to 4-5, all the losses against
AFC West opponents, and
severely hurt its hopes to stay in
the race for a playoff berth.
Krieg, who entered the game
with a 53 percent pass comple
tion rate, connected on 23 of 29
aerials against San Diego’s inex
perienced secondary. He
directed touchdown drives of
96, 81 and 63 yards.
. Largent, who now has caught
passes in 100 consecutive
games, hauled in scoring strikes
of 11, 13 and 16 yards. His first
TD catch was his first reception
of the night, the fifth straight
game he has done that.
Krieg hit Largent twice for
touchdowns in the first half,
and Norm Johnson booted a
42-yard field goal for a 17-0 lead
at intermission.

Miller signs coaching pact
CORVALLIS (AP) — Oregon
State University announced
Monday that veteran head
basketball coach Ralph Miller
has signed a new three-year
contract with the school.
But the 65-year-old coach,
entering his 15th season at
OSU, said people should not
make too much of the new pact.
He said it does not necessarily
mean he will coach three more
years before he decides to retire.
“The new contract is a very
nice gesture by Oregon State,
but you cannot attach any any
significance to the length of the
contract,” he said.
Miller has coached OSU to six
consecutive post-season playoff
berths. His teams have won or
shared Pacific 10 Conference
championships four of the past
five seasons. His record at OSU
is 264-132.
Miller is in his 34th year as a
major-college basketball coach..
His 579 victories are second on
ly to Washington’s Marv Har
shman among active NCAA
Division 1 coaches.
“Ralph has obviously done
an outstanding job for the
athletic department, the univer
sity and the state of Oregon,”
said Oregon State Athletic
Director Dee Andros.
