SPORTS Hyatt hopes to make her mark By Jake Berg Emerald Sports Editor The women's javelin field for the Pacific-10 Conference Track and Field Championships looked so barren that the league lowered its standard to allow more competitors. But don't tell that to Oregon's Kim Hyatt, who is foot and inches above the rosl of the on tries in the ovont — the first women's competition — begin ning at 3:30 p.m. today at Hay ward Field. Tho men's portion starts this afternoon at 3 with tho hummer throw. Tho senior's season best throw of 173-06 is a distant first to USC's Allison Franke's 160-00, second in tho Pac-10. Only three other athletes met tho Pac-10 qualifying standard in the javelin. Hyatt said she realizes tho competition doesn’t look like much, but she sure knows one thing. "I've still got to show up," she said. Oregon throws coach Sally Hurmon said that ns long as Hy atl concentrate* on her tech nique ami has no distractions, iho three-time All-American should have little trouble in earning her first Pac-10 title. "The only person that Kim really has to wutry about is Kim Hyatt," Harmon said. Ironically, Hyatt’s toughest opponent should have been Ashley Selmnn. who placed third in a l!SC uniform last sea son ut Poc-IOs behind Paula Berry and Hyatt, respectively. But Selman will not lie compet ing if she's at Hayward this weekend. "The crazy thing is that Ash ley Selman is transferring here next year, and she was the big gest nemesis," Harmon said of her latest pupil, who was the 1990 NCAA champion Hyatt has had time to learn from other NCAA champs ut Oregon )ill Smith was the top collegian in 1989 and Berry took first ut the NCAAs last year "It's kind of great because I've had Paula to model after." Hyatt said One thing that very few ath letos are modeling after flnrrv on is an NCAA automatic quali fying throw. Hyatt's best this year is still five inches short of tho NCAA automatic, and not many competitors havo thrown better than that this season. "I'm looking forward to her gelling an automatic," Harmon said "Kight now we're looking for consistency." Throwing a personal record this weekend wouldn't be loo bad, either, said Hyatt, whose PR came last veor when she fin ished second at the conference meet. "I'd like to throw a PR. but I'd be satisfied just scoring points for the team," Hyatt said "I'm anxious " The future of the Oregon women's Javelin program has more than Selmun in store Or egon used two of its wild card entries to get Kelsey Stollick and Ken h’sterbrook into the Poc-ll) moot.
