Pappas leads die way at Pac-10 Championships ■ Diny r d(j|jtib utsyiiis metjriu of his Oregon career with a convincing win in the decathlon By Hank Hager Oregon Daily Emerald For Oregon decathlete Billy Pap pas, the third time was the charm. In his final appearance in a Pacif ic-10 Conference meet, the Rose burg native came from behind and won the event in convincing fash ion. In his two previous meetings at the Pac-10 Championships, Pappas earned fourth in 2000 and a year later, he took home third. Now, in his senior season, Pap Sports briefs Moos promotes athletics directors The Oregon Athletic Depart ment has promoted associate ath letics directors Renee Baumgartner and Dave Heeke to the positions of senior associate athletics directors as part of the refinement within the University’s department of in tercollegiate of athletics adminis trative staff, Athletic Director Bill Moos announced Saturday. The moves, initiated because of the retirement of Sandy Walton as the department’s senior associate athletics director for the past 10 years, are designed to improve the department’s efficiency. Heeke, who is in his 14th year of involvement with intercollegiate athletics at Oregon, will continue pas nas cnmoea to tlie top. After placing second on Saturday with 3,795 points, Pappas overtook USC’s Russell Silvers to capture the coveted honor. The Oregon star fin ished with 7,532 points, while Sil vers was close behind at 7,254. Not only was the point total a personal best for Pappas, it puts him in elite company. His brother, Tom, was a star competitor at Ten nessee and was the 1999 NCAA champion in the event. En route to the win, Pappas earned marks of 44 feet 11.5 inches in the shot put and 23-00 3/4 in the long jump — and his throw of 195 11 in the javelin on Saturday was managing the department’s exter nal operations, which includes the areas of marketing and promo tions, sponsorships, ticketing, ra dio and television liaison, football and basketball scheduling, as well as media services. In addition, he remains involved with the overall fund raising efforts of the depart ment as well as oversees the Ducks’ women’s soccer and soft ball programs. Baumgartner has served as the Athletic Department’s senior women’s administrator since 1999 and will continue in that ca pacity in addition to retaining re sponsibility over women’s basket ball, volleyball, men’s and women’s golf as well as men’s and women’s tennis. Additional promotions include the elevation of Steve McBride from assistant athletics director to second only to UCLA’s Octavius Gillespie. Following up Pappas, junior Ja son Slye, a ninth place finisher in last season’s Pac-10 Champi onships, improved to fifth Sunday. His point total of 6,996 was just be hind USC’s Shelton Davis but far enough ahead of California’s Jason Gatewood for a comfortable lead. However, Slye also had to come from behind to earn fifth place. Af ter the first day, a disappointing ninth place slot was waiting for the Salem native. He finished with 3,454 points during his second day, an improvement of only two points — but enough to vault him four associate director and Tom Larson from director of finance to assis tant athletics director for business and finance as the department’s chief financial officer. McBride, who has assumed a va riety of responsibilities within the Athletic Department over the past 24 years, has overseen all of the department’s recent facility im provements, including the current $90 million renovation of Autzen Stadium. Larson has headed the Athletic Department’s business of fice since 1994. Among personnel experiencing the greatest shift in responsibilities is Mike Marlow, who has assumed the new title of assistant athletics director for development. Additional alterations to cur rent duties have been awarded to Herb Yamanaka as associate ath letics director and special assis spots ahead. Finishing up the day for the Ducks, junior Jake Horner, in his first appearance at the Pac-lOs, took ninth (6,570) but suffered a disap pointing finish after early success during the first day. Horner, through a strong first day, was able to finish fourth, but slipped to his final spot during the second day. Horner and Slye finished with personal bests in the decathlon. On the women’s side, senior Jenny Kenyon, the lone Oregon representative, placed fifth in the heptathlon. After finishing third during the tant to the director, and Jim Bartko as assistant athletics direc tor for community and corporate relations. Cho finishes 63rd in NCAA Regional After a promising 75 in Thurs day’s opening round that left her tied for 17th, Oregon’s Kathy Cho struggled to a 79 Friday and an 83 Saturday to tie for 63rd at 21-over 237 after the final round of the NCAA West Regional, played at the par-72 Stanford Golf Course. UCLA overcame a second round three-stroke deficit to tie for first with Pepperdine at a 19 over 883. California was six shots off the pace at 889 to place third, while Arizona was fourth at 890. Other NCAA qualifiers include fifth place Stanford (901), sixth place finishers Arizona State and first day, Kenyon — who finished sixth in 1999, fourth in 2000 and fifth in 2001 — equaled last sea son’s finish but improved her point total to 5,169. That total was good enough for a personal best and moves her into fifth place on the all-time Oregon record list. Currently, the Oregon men stand in first place in the Pac-10 Championships with 14 points. The women, supported only by Kenyon, are tied for third with four points.
