Women* UO fared better in the field H Continued from Paget could,” she said. “I got Idtle im patient in the 3,000 and \ t a lit tle earlier than I should have, but it felt good. It will make me stronger at nationals since there’s prelims and finals in each event there. It felt a lot easier this year [doubling] than last year against them, so that’s a good sign.” Besides the 800, Washington was victorious in the 100-, 200- and 400-meter sprints, the 100- and 400-meter hurdles and both the 4x100- and 4x400-meter relays. Things were brighter for the women on the field, highlighted by a first-through-fifth sweep in the hammer and a first-through fourth sweep in the javelin. In the hammer, Heidi Fisk un leashed a throw of 167 feet, six inches, more than 15 feet past her personal best, to take the victory. Chris Cvitanich, Valerie Sweitzer, Maureen Morrison and Michele Dick completed the Oregon sweep. In the javelin, senior Katie Pearmine won her second straight meet with a throw of 156-5, almost four feet better than teammate Karis Howell. Tasha Cooper and Jennifer Cutburth of Oregon finished third and fourth, respectively. Jennifer Thomas completed a suc cessful tuneup for the Pac-10 hep tathlon championships next week end in Palo Alto, Calif., by winning the long jump with a leap of 19-9, placing third in the 100-meter hurdles and taking fourth in the high jump. “I jumped my best on my last jump,” Thomas said. “It was my first time over the six-meter mark this year. Washington’s Michelle Reid re turned from missing more than a month with injuries to win the triple jump in 38-10 1/4, while 1996 Olympian Aretha Hill dou bled up with wins in the shotput (49-1) and discus (191-1). Ore gon’s Karina Elstrom took her sec ond consecutive pole vault title at a height of 12-1 1/2, nearly two feet better than second-place Mer ryjane Bendico of Washington. Men: Oregon posts six wins in field events ■ Continued from Page 11 auto-qualifying time. Every race like that gets you more and more ready for an NCAA type of race. There’s limited opportunities to go out and do that and every race is a learning experience—learn ing how to be tough and respond to what’s happening.” Davis overtook Washing ton’s Christian Belz on the fifth lap and then pulled away down the stretch. Another big win for Oregon came in the 1,500 meters, where Greg James beat out Ledford down the stretch, finishing in 3:44.87 to Ledford’s 3:45.01. Oregon winners included Joe DeRieux in the high jump (six feet, 8 3/4 inches); Piotr Bu ciarski in the pole vault (16-4 3/4); Jody Mortimore in the long jump (23-5 1/4); Gregg Bleakney in the triple jump (48-8 1/4); Chris Thomas in the javelin (207-10); and Ryan Cole in the hammer (175-0). rhe Oregon Daily Emerald is celebrating its 100th year of publication during the 1998-99 academic year.
