Ducks ready to challenge UCLA
for Pac-10 crown this weekend
By Ashley Conklin
Emerald Sports Reporter
For the first time since ltfHti.
someone other than UCLA
could walk away with the
men's Pacific-10 Conference
track crown when the meet
concludes Sunday at Stanford
Stadium.
Oregon, which was the last
team other than the Bruins to
win the conference title, will
give UCLA n strong test in Sat
urday's and Sunday’s meet
Any chance of a Duck title
would probably disappear if
Oregon should stumble in any
one event, however.
"UCLA will probably be the
favorite," said Duck head
coach Hill Dellinger. "If we
don't fall flat on our face,
there's no reason why we can't
win. We can’t afford to have
one guy stub his toe if we want
to win the meet."
Oil in Berry will lead Ore
gon's effort at the conference ti
tle. Herrv is the defending
champ in the long jump and
the two-time defending champ
in the triple jump. He owns the
best mark in both events this
season and, along with team
mate Spencer Williams, should
bring the Ducks plenty of
points.
With Mike Marsh and Steve
Lewis, a 400-meter gold medal
ist in the 10H8 Olympics, the
Bruins should dominate the
sprints. UCl-A will also be very
tough in the shot put and dis
cus. with three throwers among
the top six.
Oregon's Jose deSouza is the
defending conference champ in
the shot put. but has a best of
only 58-8v* this year, the fifth
best conference throw. If
deSouza could repeat his per
formance in the shot and come
away with big points in the dis
cus, the Ducks could be on
their way to the title.
The Ducks should also come
away with big points in the jav
elin. hammer and distance
races.
Art Skipper and jack Byrne
hold the second and third spots
in the Pac-10 in the javelin, and
hammer throwers Eric Finch
and Scott McGee will battle it
