Holliday
continued from page 9A
close to Baggett. In addition, she
would be coached by Vanderville,
who had a history with her for
mer coach.
Oregon won.
Baggett was happy to see Holli
day stay in Oregon.
“Mark has a consistent philoso
phy of what I have,” Baggett said. “I
wanted to direct Becky into a simi
lar program, so that’s where we
were directing her.”
So far, in five months of competi
tion for the Ducks, Holliday has bro
ken the Oregon record at 14-1.25
and is currently second in the nation
among college vaulters. At one point
she was tied for first, and she is still
only two inches behind the nation’s
leader, UCLA’s Tracy O’Hara.
Then there’s Oregon head coach
Tom Heinonen. He isn’t a bit sur
prised at her early success.
“She’s doing wonderfully,” he
said. “We expected there to be a pe
riod of adjustment. In the last
month or so she’s really got rolling.
She expects to vault higher, and I
think she will.”
Holliday agrees.
“I’m adjusting quite well,” she
said. “Once I am more comfortable
with the place, the better I am going
to be able to pole vault.”
Holliday is a world-class athlete.
In addition to having the talent,
Holliday has the mental capacity to
succeed at the collegiate level.
Some argue that may be her
strongest suit, the thing that helps
most when trying to clear 14-5 and
then possibly 15-feet.
“She’s a gifted and talented ath
lete,” Baggett said. “She has the
ability to focus. When she gets into
a practice it’s all business.”
With the Oregon Twilight on Sat
urday, the season may be ending for
some of Oregon’s track and field
quotient. That is anything but true
for Holliday.
Next week, she will take on
some of the West Coast’s finest
with O’Hara and Arizona’s Amy
Linnen at the Pacific-10 Confer
ence Championships in Pullman,
Wash. Following that, the three
will meet again at the NCAA ver
sion a week later.
Is there an NCAA championship
in the works for Holliday?
“Tracy is such a consistent
vaulter. I think I’m consistent too,”
she said. “I think it’s going to be be
tween me and her. We’re the ones
that can show up knowing that we
have a good chance at winning.
Amy shows up thinking she has a
good chance of winning, but is
such an inconsistent vaulter.”
Of course, there is the specter of
the Prefontaine Classic. Both Holl
iday and Heinonen were unaware
of Jordan’s decision to enroll Holli
day if she so wished.
Holliday was intrigued. So was
Heinonen. However, he isn’t quite
sure if she will be able to participate.
“As exciting as it would be, I
can’t believe we would have her
vault on Sunday and again on
Wednesday (at the NCAAs),” he
said. “I would think about it, but
she’s a Division I athlete, and four
days vaulting in another meet be
fore the championships would be
an odd proposition.”
Either way, Oregon is happy to
have her.

seven doubles and two home runs.
The day after the doubleheader
against Stanford, the 48-team field
for the 2002 NCAA Division I Soft
ball Championship will be an
nounced on a selection show at 6
p.m. The Ducks have little chance
of moving on, but all seven other
teams in the conference will most
likely receive bids.
The latest USA Today/NFCA
top-25 poll to come out has No. 15
Oregon State as the lowest ranking
Pac-10 team. The other six teams
are ranked as follows: No. 1 UCLA,
No. 2 Arizona, No. 4 Arizona State,
No. 5 California, No. 6 Washington
and No. 8 Stanford.
