with Olympic athletes and is cur
rently working with Olympic
hopeful Piotr Buciarski.
The one thing Reed did not
have before coming to Oregon was
a campus tour. But she’d seen
Hayward Field during high school
state meets.
And as far as she was con
cerned, that was enough.
“I never actually took a trip
here, so I didn’t really know what
it was like,” Reed said. “I do know
that when I was at the state meets,
it was pretty cool to be running out
on this track.”
Reed joined the Ducks’ talented
pole-vaulting squad this season as
a highly touted freshman recruit.
She has handled the pressure
like a veteran. Toward the sea
son’s end, at the Pepsi-Team Invi
tational Reed scored a personal
best height of 12-71/2.
Teammate Karina Elstrom can
relate to the high expectations
Reed faced this season. Now a
sophomore, Elstrom overcame the
pressure in her Oregon debut last
season by finishing 16th in the
NCAA pole vault and second in
the Pacific-10 Conference.
Elstrom said one of Reed’s
strengths is her ability to deal with
winning and losing.
“If she does really well, she
seems to not get really excited
about it, which at first I thought
that wasn’t a strength — but if she
doesn’t do well, she’s able to blow
that off. Either way, I think it’s
probably a strength.”
Reed’s performances this sea
son gave her momentum going
into the postseason meets. Al
ready, she has finished second in
the Pac-lOmeet.
If that momentum continues,
Reed could be a young surprise for
the competition at the NCAA Cham
pionships June 2-5 in Boise, Idaho.
“I’ve never been to an NCAA
meet, so I don’t know what to ex
pect or how big it will be,” Reed
said. “Right now, I just kind of
a I've never been to an
NCAA meet, so I don’t
know what to expect or
bow big it will be.

UO pole vaulter
think of it as another meet. ”
Reed is enjoying her success as a
college athlete, but she has not let it
go to her head. She continues to look
toward her teammates and coaches
for inspiration. And she has yet to set
any long-term goals at Oregon.
However, she has developed a
philosophy that many others can
learn from.
“Something that’s important is
to always be good-spirited, just to
show a happy face even if you
don’t jump well in one meet,”
Reed said. “Maybe little kids or
even people on the team will be
able to look up to you.”
Blazers

game on the hustle of Anthony, the backup to point
guard Damon Stoudamire.
Anthony first hit a wide-open 3-pointer on a pass from
Rasheed Wallace. At the other end, he fought after a
loose ball, dribbled down the court and found Wallace
for an open jumper to make it 69-61 with 11:10 left.
Grant’s aggressiveness also picked up the Blazers.
He didn’t get his first point or rebound until late in
the first quarter, but was a presence the rest of the
game and a defensive hindrance to Malone.
This was the first time in 148 career playoff games
that Malone did not reach double figures.
‘‘If I wanted to be critical, I could be critical of a lot
of things,” Sloan said. “It’s always difficult when you
lose, but the most rewarding thing in all of this is that
we’ve always fought back. You can talk about cham
pionships all you want, but you’ve got to be pretty
tough to always fight back.”
Each team had a lead of eight points in the second
quarter before faltering.
A 3-pointer and a running bank shot by Walt
Williams gave the Blazers a 26-18 lead. Utah then
went on a 17-1 run, and a fastbreak dunk by Russell
put the Jazz ahead 35-27.
Portland responded with a hook and 3-pointer by
Jim Jackson, and the Blazers outscored the Jazz 7-1 to
end the quarter. Sabonis had a reverse layup and free
throw, and hit a 3-pointer with 8.6 seconds left to tie it
42-all at the half.
Notes: Utah has lost its last 11 playoff games in Port
land dating to 1988.... Portland’s Stacey Augmon left
limping with 3:56 to go in the first quarter with what
was called a nerve contusion in his left leg.
