Men’s continued from page 7 A flu all week to win the long jump on his only leap of the day with a sea son best 23 feet, four 3/4 inches. “It’s real nice to win. In the long jump, we knew we could get that 1-2-3 sweep and help beat Washington.” As expected, the Ducks came out strong from the get-go and dominated the field portion of the meet. Oregon’s John Bello gave his team the early 36 22 lead after seven events when he won the shot put event with an NCAA provisional mark of 58-111/4. Bello’s day wasn’t done, though, as he went on to capture first in the discus throw as well with a heave of 180-1. “With a smaller field, compared to an invitational, you have to take more responsibility to pump your self up and maximize your perform ance,“Bello said. Oregon captured first, second and third place in the long jump, shot put and javelin throw, respectively, where John Steigeler won with an NCAA provisional javelin mark of 221 -5. “We’re out here to show everyone that Oregon’s a powerhouse,” Steigeler said. Other Oregon field event winners included Jason Boness in the high jump (7-01/2) and Adam Kriz in the hammer (183-1). The Ducks’ strong performance in the field took much of the pres sure off the sprinters who were try ing to compete with All-American speedster Ja’Warren Hooker of Washington. Hooker, who doubled at the PAC-10 Championships in the 100- and 200-meters last spring in Eugene, tore up the track once again with wins in those two events. “This is one meet you circle on your schedule,” said Hooker, who ran a 10.32 in the 100 and a 20.82 in the 200. “I just enjoy coming here with this crowd. It’s exciting. We got NCAA’s, U.S. Nationals and Prefontaine here so I’ll be back a few more times. ” Perhaps the most important vic tories for the Ducks came in the hur dle races. Oregon scored valuable points when junior Micah Harris took first in the 100-meter high hur dles and junior Tim Overfield beat out the field in the 400-meter inter mediate hurdles. Harris, a transfer from Central Ari zona, went below the 14-second mark for the third time this season, running a 13.95 to finish ahead of fel low Duck Terry Ellis (14.36 seconds). “It’s always great to score points that matter for the team,” Harris said. “This is a great meet for us to break some of the ice of the top and get it under our belt and prepare us for the rest of the season. ” Overfield set a new personal record with his time of 52.14 sec onds when he finished ahead of Washington’s Brad Goodrich (52.77) and Lorenzo (52.82). “Perhaps the individual that had the best individual breakthrough to day was Tim Overfield,” Smith said. Another strong performance came from junior transfer Simon Kimata, who celebrated his first ever meet ^t Hayward with a first-place finish in the 800-meters in a time of 1:50.76. “I was really happy for Simon,” Smith said of the Nyeri, Kenya, na tive. “It was a wonderful step for Si mon. He looked really good today and ran a wonderful leg on the mile relay. ” The Ducks also received an added boost by having some of the Oregon football players run in the sprints. Cornerback A.K. Keyes, linebacker Wesly Mallard and receiver Samie Parker all rid of their pads for a day to compete Saturday, despite playing in the football scrimmage on Friday. . Oregon hopes to keep its success going next weekend at the always competitive Mt. SAC Relays in Wal nut, Calif. ‘ “We’re on a roll,” Harris said. Softball continued from page 7 A shutout. Draper is now 18-8 this sea son. “A couple of key hits broke the game open for us,” Oregon State head coach Kirk Walker said. “We capitalized on their mistakes and had some timely hitting. ” Wangler led off game two with a single and scored on an RBI single by Coe to give the Ducks an early 1-0 lead. The Beavers, however, an swered with four runs in the top of the second off McMurren and added three more in the third. De fensive struggles again plagued the Ducks, as three of McMurren’s sev en runs allowed were unearned. “Connie has been sick the last few days.. .she’s a competitor, but she did n’t have it in her today,” Gamez said. Oregon’s only other run was an Andrea Vidlund fourth-inning homer. Shortstop Kate Peterson hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the fifth to give the Ducks a 9-1 vic tory over San Jose State in the first game of Friday’s doubleheader. Wangler'didn’t allow a hit in four innings of work to pick up the vic tory. Freshman Anissa Meashintub by improved her record to 3-1 while allowing just two hits in five innings in the second game. Meashintubby has a team-best 2.70 ERA. The Ducks had 10 hits, while al lowing just three, in the 4-1 victory against the Spartans.
