10-2 season and the return of eight
offensive starters, including first
team Playboy all-American quar
terback Joey Harrington and tail
back Maurice Morris. Not to
mention the addition of sopho
more transfer tailback Onterrio
Smith from Tennessee.
But as Oregon head coach Mike
Bellotti is well aware, the Ducks
must retool their defense and spe
cial teams, and those will be the
areas that he will key in on during
Saturday’s game.
“We have a lot of holes to fill,
and the defense and the special
teams are a question mark,” Bellot
ti said. “But we’ll rebound.”
The Ducks completed practice
Thursday after a productive week
in which Bellotti said the team
went through “things not for pub
lic inspection.”
Oregon begins its season Sept. 1
at home against Wisconsin, but
there are still many positions,

mostly reserve spots, that will not
be decided until then.
“The spring time is when every
body comes out and competes for
positions, so you’re going to see a
lot of competitive fire out there in
that game,” Smith said. “And
there’s a lot of good things going
on that the fans should be excited
about.”
One person certainly excited
about the Ducks is Hillsboro may
or Tom Hughes. Saturday will be
the first time in three years that the
Spring Game has not been played
at Autzen, but the city of Hillsboro
is excited about creating a mini
Autzen-like atmosphere.
“We are happy to welcome
Coach Bellotti and the rest of the
Ducks’ team to Hillsboro Stadi
um,” Hughes said. “It makes me
proud as a life-long Duck fan to
know the road to the National
Championship is going to begin in
Hillsboro.”
Note: Hillsboro Stadium is locat
ed southwest of Portland off High
way 26 about 15 miles west of In
terstate 5. Tickets for Saturday’s
game cost $7 and the gates open at
11 a.m. •

Highlighted unattached athletes include a trio of
Japanese long-distance runners, led by 2000
Olympian Toshinari Takaoka. Senior Michael
Kasahun is seeded fourth behind the Japanese trio in
the 5,000-meters. The race will be Kasahun’s first
5,000 of the season.
Former Duck Piotr Buciarski returns to the Hay
ward Field pole vault pit this weekend. The Warsaw,
Poland, native was a three-time all-American and
two-time Pac-10 Champion in the pole vault.
Competing for the last time until the Pac-10 multi
event championships will be decathlete Santiago
Lorenzo. The junior from Buenos Aires, Argentina,
has already qualified for the NCAA Championships
in the decathlon and will compete in the 400-meters,
110-hurdles and in the pole vault.
“The hurdles and pole vault are more technique
events while the 400 is conditioning,” Lorenzo said.
“Doing them will really help me in the decathlon.”
Joining Lorenzo in the pole vault will be junior
Cody Howell, sophomore decathlete Jason Slye and
freshman NCAA provisional qualifier Trevor Woods,
who will be going after an automatic mark on Satur
day.
“The ultimate goal is to get to the NCAAs,” Woods
said. “I want to clear 17-8 or 18 this season.”
Juniors Ross Krempley and Simon Kimata should
compete in an interesting 800-meters. Kimata is get
ting back into his groove following a stress fracture in
jury he suffered in junior college. Both racers will
look to break the 1 minute, 50 second barrier Satur
day.
Rounding out the Oregon contingent is football
player Sarnie Parker in the sprints. The wide receiver
was a Pac-10 qualifier last season, but has been ham
pered by injuries sustained in spring football drills.
The day session kicks off at 10 a.m. with the
women’s 5,000-meters and ends with the women’s
steeplechase. The evening session begins with the
4x100-meter relays.
