By Erick Studenlcka
O&QOn O&fy f 1
Rvorv four v**arv th« winner of
the Olympic heptathlon is
(Iff 1.1red "The World's Greatest
Athlot« "
l( dominance in the heptnthlon
is indeed the best way to deter
mine a sujM'nnr athlete, then Ore
gon trac k athlete Kelly Blair
should lie < onsidered "Oregon's
Greatest Athlete
Blair smashed the si hool
r«s urd in the heptathlon h> near^
|y 200 points last week at the Ari
zona Slate Invitational. I ler m ore
of '>.711 heat her nearest com
petitor, Kim Vanderhoek of
Simon Fraser, hy 400 points
What is even more amazing
was that Blair set the standard in
Tempe under poor weather con
ditions.
"The first day of the competi
tion was perfect." Blair said "But
the sei ond day was one of the
worst over, it was rainy and
windy I was frustrated, but 1 fig
ure mv point total < an only
improve in belter i onditions
Blair said establishing the
•a hool record wasn't her goal.
“I was just try mg for the N( .A A
qualifying mark: ! w.isn't even
thinking about the record -he
said II (list kind of happened
Blair, now in her junior season
of eligibility. easily surpassed the
NT A A qualifying standard of
S.MKt points and is the first Dm k
athlete to qualify for the NCAA
Championships this season

Junior Kelly Blair returned after a redshlrt season to break the school
record In the heptathlon and quality tor the NCAA Championships.
The NCAA Championships
will lx- nothing now for Blair, as
shr< look sixth pint i- in the moot
two seasons ago Blair red shifted
last season after averaging -t fi
points |«>r gatin’ as a guard on the
basketball team
Blair saitl that although it was
tough to give up playing inter
collegiate IsisketUiil. she feels she
made tin* right de< ision
“Now that I've tx*e» away a sea
son I'm glad I made the dei i
sion.' she s.iid It's made a big
difference in my conditioning.
When I was playing basketball.
I was missing n lot of fall and win
ter base conditioning
'1 miss the team-oriented < lose
ness of the basketball team. I had
a lot of friend* on the squad, nut
i! was always more obvious that
Irac k was my real strength."
Trac k has indeed been Blair's
strength since her high sc.hool
days in Prosser. Wash . when she
was named the top prep hep
tathlete in the nation by Track
and Field Sc tvs Only 22-years
old. she has already represented
the United States in the Junior
Pan-American Game* and inter
national dual meets.
In addition to being a out
standing heptathlele. Blair is also
a national-class high jumper and
hurdler. Blair recently showed
her potential in the hurdles by
provisionally qualifying for tin*
NCAA meet the first time she* ran
the* 400-meter hurdle event.
Blair said her aim in the hep
tathlon is to surpass the 0,000
point barrier, a total whir h would
plac e* her near Arizona State's Goa
Johnson's Pac ific -10 Conference
record of 6.132.
"I know 1 can score more points
if I i an put together two strong
days." Blair said "In Tempo, for
example. 1 was a foot liehind the
take-off board. There's 100 mon
points if I just hit the board c or -
redly."
Head coac h Tom lleinonen
also said Blair could reac li the
6.000 point murk
"II Kelly could put together
two days similar to her first day
at Arizona State, she could score
above 0,00(1 points." lleinonen
said.
