Crabb qualifies for NCAAs
■ a Tew prepare ror me inlaa
indoor meet while other team
members take to the outdoors
By Robbie McCallum
Oregon Daily Emerald
It was fitting that senior distance
runner Katie Crabb earned her
NCAA qualifying mark at the Ne
braska’s Last
Chance Meet in
Lincoln, Neb. The
six-time NCAA
participant was in
danger of missing
her final chance at
a nationals berth with a mile time
that was three seconds too slow.
Crabb disposed of any doubt with
a four-second, personal-best win in
the mile in a time of four minutes,
42 seconds, surpassing the qualify
ing mark of 4:43.
“Katie ran a controlled race and
followed the rabbit early,” Oregon
women’s coach Tom Heinonen said
on a released statement. “But when
the pace slowed at the half, she took
control and never looked back. She
now has six days to get ready for the
prelims at NCAAs and won’t have
to wait for a call this week.”
Crabb’s time, the fastest women’s
mile at Oregon in 13 years, moved
her to fourth on the all-time Oregon
Sports brief
Softball loses 5 of 6 at tourney
The No. 22 Oregon softball team
dropped its final four games at the
Worth Invitational in Fullerton,
Calif., this weekend, falling to 16
13 on the season.
Without second baseman Alyssa
Laux, the team’s second-leading
hitter who sustained a concussion
on Friday, the Ducks could only
muster one run in two games
against Minnesota and New Mexi
co on Sunday.
record dook alter ranKing lutn pre
viously.
Teammate Holly Speight was not
as successful in her NCAA pursuit.
The senior pole vaulter failed to im
prove upon her NCAA provisional
mark of 12 feet, 6 inches and placed
fifth at 11-10 3/4.
Speight ranks 34th nationally and
is unlikely to receive an NCAA bid.
Two other Ducks are more certain
of receiving NCAA bids. Sopho
mores Jason Hartmann (5,000 me
ters) and Jason Boness (high jump)
both have provisional marks in their
first years of indoor competition.
Hartmann has a season best 14:05
in the 5,000, which ranks him 10th
nationally.
Boness is ranked 14th nationally
with a mark of 7-2 1/4 in the high
jump.
Other Duck men with provisional
marks include senior Rian Ingram
in the shot put (57-5) and freshman
Trevor Woods in the pole vault (17
2 3/4).
The remainder of the Oregon
women’s team took to the outdoors
for the first time this season at the
Linfield Icebreaker Meet in McMin
nville, Ore.
Eight Ducks combined for ten
wins as Oregon dominated the
middle-distance events, hurdles
and throws.
Newcomers Cameo Davis and
Ann Sullivan led 1-2-3 sweeps in
the hurdle races. Sullivan, a fresh
man from Omak, Wash., won the
100 hurdles in a time of 14.78, lead
ing junior Jenny Kenyon and Davis
to the tape.
Davis, a junior transfer from Lane
Community College, returned to win
the 400 hurdles in a time of 1:05.6 to
edge sophomore Alicia Snyder-Carl
son by one tenth of a second. Sulli
van and Kenyon placed third and
fourth respectively.
Sophomores Mary Etter and Jor
dan McDaniels were double win
ners in the throws. Etter won the
shot put and discus by large mar
gins with throws of 45-5 and 149
11, respectively. She also turned in
a second place performance in the
hammer.
McDaniels won the hammer
throw and javelin with respective
tosses of 168-1 and 138-11. Mc
Daniels also placed second in the
discus and fifth in the shot put.
Freshman Annette Mosey won her
first race in a Duck uniform, winning
the 800 meters in a time of 2:15.
Sophomore Eri MacDonald won
the 1,500 meters in atimeof4:39.
The Ducks make their home debut
on March 17 at the Oregon Preview.
Minnesota began its rally early,
scoring in the top of the first and tak
ing a 3-0 by the fifth. Oregon’s only
run came on an RBI single by Triawn
Custer, scoring Tammi Hays.
Junior Connie McMurren (6-5)
held New Mexico scoreless for four
innings but was given no support
offensively.
“This has been a problem for us
all season,” head coach Rick
Gamez said. “We need somebody
to step up and make big plays
when we have runners in scoring
position. If we can get over that
hump, we’re going to be fine.”
In two close games, Oregon fell
to Pacific, 2-1, and San Jose State by
the same score Saturday.
On Friday, Oregon banged out 16
hits against Long Beach State in an
11-7 win but was again hammered
by offensive struggles in the second
game, falling to No. 11 Cal-State
Fullerton, 6-0.
“We had our chances to score
against Fullerton, but we're still be
ing haunted by the fact that we
can’t get hits with runners in scor
ing position,” Gamez said.
