Men’s track renews rivalry
By Scott Simonson
Oregon Daily I merak)
The biggest and host rivalry in Oregon men's
track will be renewed Saturday when the Ducks
meet Washington State as part of a triangular meet
at Hayward Field.
After 21 years of intense competition, Oregon
head coach Bill Dellinger and Washington State
head coach John Chaplin will meet in the regular
season for the final time. The 57-year-old Chaplin
is resigning at the end of this season.
Saturday's competition isn't a dual meet, the for
mat that provided some spectacular performances
over the years. The spectacular performances
haven’t always been relegated to the athletes
As if a meeting of two perennial powerhouses
isn't enough to make things interesting, Chaplin's
stormy relationship with Oregon's fans and with
the press has spawned endless stories
"I’d rather have 10,000 fans out there booing me
than one fan cheering," Chaplin said "I like
Eugene. They're very supportive of their team "
Dellinger and Chaplin are longtime friends, but
when the competition begins, so does the rivalry
"I don't know whether that's felt more by the
coaches or by the teams,” Dellinger said.
"I'm sure he'd like to leave here with a victory,
and I'm sure lie has a team that can do that, so
we re looking for a goixi track meet."
"Bill ami 1 have an agreement that we don't talk
to each other during the meet," ( Tuiplin said. I go
to his house when we go to Eugene, and tie'll prob
ably come to my house when they come up here
(for the Pacific-10 Conference meet) "
This week is a return to team competition for the
Ducks Members of the Oregon team spent time at
the Drake Relays in Iowa and at the Penn Relays in
Philadelphia last weekend
Dellinger was pleased with his team's efforts in
last weekend's competitions He named Kick
Cantwell, Karl Keska, Gordon Johnson and Scott
Nicholas' effort in winning the 4x1,600 relay as a
highlight
This week, the competition in the distance
events gets even tougher Washington State brings
Josephat Kapkory to town "kapkory is the best in
the nation right now,'' Dellinger said, lie'll be
favored in whatever he runs."
Kapkory Inis the best collegiate time in the coun
try in the 3,000-meter steeplechase and in the
10.000 meters He also has one of the fastest 5,000
metor times in the country. Kapkorv is scheduled
to run the 1,500 and the 5.Q00.
Oregon has an edge in depth, but the Ducks will
be hard-pressed to keep up with the Cougars in
first-place points and may need some upsets
Oregon has at least one Pac-10 qualifier in every
