good in areas where we’re thin, so
I think it’s going to be a real close
meet and we’re going to have to
compete real well on their home
turf to win it."
The Ducks and Huskies will be
facing each other for the second
time this season, the first matchup
coming when Oregon held off
Washington 210-175 to win the
Pepsi Team Invitational on April
18 at Hayward Field.
Based solely on the teams’ best
marks this season, Dellinger said
the Huskies “go 1-2 in the 100,
200, 400 and high hurdles. They
win the shot, discus and javelin,
so we have our work cut out for us
— and they win the 1,500 with
best marks.”
If form charts hold up — al
though they rarely do—the Ducks
will need strong performances
from, among others, the likes of
Micah Davis in the steeplechase,
freshman Adam Bergquist in the
5,000 meters, Gregg Bleakney in
the triple jump, Jody Mortimore in
the long jump, Piotr Buciarski in
the pole vault and Damian Olson
in the high jump.
Davis, who has an NCAA provi
sional qualifying mark of eight
minutes, 45.08 seconds in the
steeplechase, said the pressure is
on Oregon’s distance runners this
week.
“We’ve got to go up there and
win all those [distance] races if
we’re going to have a shot at all,”
Davis said. “Then there’s going to
have to be guys that are going to
have to step up and try and beat
these guys in these other events if
we’re going to win the meet. ’’
Mortimore is still chasing a pro
visional mark (25 feet, 3 1/4 inch
es) in the long jump after breaking
the 25-foot mark twice earlier this
season. He might triple jump as
well if the team needs some more
points at that point in the meet.
Buciarski, who has secured a
provisional mark with a mark of
18-01/2 in the pole vault, will also
spread his talents around as he is
scheduled to compete in the long
jump, an event he finished third in
at last year’s Pacific-10 Conference
Championships at Husky Stadi
um.
One of the more interesting
races of the day could be the 1,500
meters, where Oregon’s Greg
James and Laird Prosser match up
rather evenly with Washington’s
Chris Ledford and Geoff Perry.
The meet also has some historic
significance as it will be the final
dual meet for Dellinger, who is re
tiring at the end of the season.

qualifying marks and times for
the Pac-10 and NCAA meets,
Heinonen said the team’s goal
against Washington is clear.
“At this point we’re going for
the win,” Heinonen said. “If
the marks come, that’s great. In
some events they go hand in
hand.”
Also of note in the meet is
the final dual-meet appear
ances for a grou p of seniors that
includes sprinter Nicole Com
missiong, heptathlete Jennifer
Thomas, javelin thrower Katie
Pearmine and thrower Chris
Cvitanich.
“This is one of our best
groups of seniors,” said Hein
onen, who has coached 22 such
groups at Oregon. “These peo
ple have carried us a long way,
and we’re going to miss them.”
Commissiong will be one of
a handful of Oregon women
competing in multiple events
in an attempt to get as many
points as possible against the
Huskies. She will run both the
4x100- and 4x400-meter re
lays, as well as the 200- and
400-meter sprints.
Joining Commissiong in Jx)th
relays will be Tish Henes, who
will also return to competition
in the 400-meter hurdles after a
one-week layoff during which
she won the 200-meter dash at
the Oregon Invitational.
“We probably would score
more points if she ran the 400
and the 200," Heinonen said.
As it is, the 400-meter hur
dles will feature a rematch be
tween Henes and Washing
ton's Keisha Griffis from the
Pepsi Invitational at Hayward
Field earlier this season. Griff
is, who is ranked seventh na
tionally in the event, won the
hurdles at the Pepsi meet with
Henes finishing second. Both
runners recorded season-best
times in that race.
On the field, Oregon’s throw
ers face a hefty challenge in for
mer Olympian Aretha Hil 1, who
competes in the discus and
shotput. Hill, a three-time All
American, holds the Pac-10
record in the discus with a mark
of 215-3 and has provisionally
qualified for the NCAA in the
shot with a throw of 51-5.
On the line for Katie
Pearmine in the javelin is a
chance to qualify for her third
straight NCAA Championship.
Pearmine has a season best this
year of 157-7 but will need to
approach her personal record
of 164-0 to garner considera
tion for the NCAAs.
