sports_ Hayes grabs fifth in NCAA 10,000 By Allan Lazo Of Um Kmoral d Oregon senior Kathy Hayea finished fifth in the 10.000-meter finals on the opening day for qualifying and trials in the men's and women's NCAA track-and-field cham pionships being held in Austin, Texas. Hayes, the 1984 10.000 na tional champion (32:43,81). finished in 33:58.55 for her fifth-place finish behind winner Nan Doak from the University of Iowa (33:33.03). Hayes' race was the only final event of the day. Mostly preliminaries and trial races were the main highlights of the day. In the 800-meter trials, Oregon's Claudette Groenen daal and Leann Warren both won their heats. Warren's 2:03.02 was the best time of the day in all of the heats. Groenen daal finished in 2:04.3 in her heat. Warren holds the collegiate record at the 800 (1:59.63), while Groenendaal’s lifetime best is a 1:59.98. The 800 final will be on Friday. The Ducks' Brenda Bushnell clocked the fifth best time in the 3,000-meters on Wednesday, a 9:26.46. Bushnell’s best is a 9:22.58, and she will also run her final on Friday. Today, the women competing in preliminaries will be: Sally Harmon (javelin), Shari Collins (high jump), Quenna Beasley (shot), and Kosa Gutierrez (5,000- meters). On the opening day of quali fying for the men. junior Ken Flax met his two Swedish hammer-throwing foes. Flax finished in third place at 235-2. San Jose State University’s Kjell Bystedt finished the quali fying round in first place with a stadium record 236-9 while Washington State University’s Tore Gustafsson was in second at 236*3. Finals begin at 11 a.m. on Friday. ° The three are the top throwers in the nation, and there is a tight-knit rivalry among them. Flax defeated Gustafsson at the Pacific-10 Conference Championships this year, . avenging an earlier loss to Gustafsson during the Oregon WSU dual meet. Bystedt was last year's NCAA runner-up, and he downed Gustafsson at the Oregon Pepsi Relays. But ■ Gustafsson broke Bystedt’s Swedish national record, and Bystedt has been trying to regain it. In the pole vault, another of the Ducks’ conference cham pions, Kory Tarpenning, cleared 17-6 along with 15 other competitors to advance to the finals on Friday at 1 p.m. Tarpenning has a career-best of 16-6, but he will have to face Oklahoma State University’s Joe Dial, who broke the American pole vault record this year. Matt McGuirk, in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, failed to qualify for the Friday final. In today’s competition, Brian Grouser takes the field for quali fying in the javelin, while Jeff Hultberg and Greg Aitkenhead will be in the shot put trying to qualify tonight. The top marks in the javelin are near the 300-foot mark, and Crouser has e career best of 286-0. On the track. Dub Myers.will run in the 1,500 trials and so will Mike Blackmore in the 5,000. Myers finished fifth in the 1,500 as a freshman and third last year'at the NCAA’s. .* Miller enlists with Seattle Mariner baseball organization By Brant De La Paz Ofth* KawriM Following in the path of Eugene’* prominent two-sport athlete Danny Ainge.
