Track coach Smith named region’s Coach of Year
■ After leading his squad to
second place in the Pac-10,
Martin Smith is honored as
West Regional Coach of the Year
By Hank Hager
Oregon Daily Emerald
The Oregon men finished sec
ond in the Pacific-10 Conference
Championships this season and
will send seven athletes to the
NCAA version this week. As a sign
of the team’s successful season,
head coach Martin Smith was
named the West Regional’s Coach
of the Year.
The Pac-10 finish was Oregon’s
highest finish since 1996 when
the Ducks placed second behind
UCLA. In 2001, the squad fin
ished fifth.
“The jump up in the team stand
ings was a big step for us,” said
Smith, who is in his fourth year as
the Oregon coach. “Personally, I
was a little surprised because we
knew we were without three Pac
10 champions, and we only have
so many peo
ple who! can
step in. It was a
wild weekend
of action, and it
was neat to see
how the team
shared the mo
mentum — it
exemplified a
unified effort.”
Smith will
now be consid
ered for Na
tional Coach of the Year after win
ning the conference honors, which
was based on a vote by regional
coaches.
Other winners included Con
necticut’s Greg Roy, Pennsylvania’s
Charlie Powell, East Carolina’s Bill
Carson, Terry Long of Florida
State, Rick Watkins of North Texas,
Ed Nuttycombe of Wisconsin, Wi
chita State’s Steve Rainbolt and
Utah State’s Gregg Gensel.
The winner will be announced
during the NCAA finale.
Duck Dearmon
Chris Dearmon, the 2002 Oregon
State 4A high school shot put
champion, has been announced as
the Oregon men’s 11th signee for
the 2003 season.
Dearmon, a Central Point native
and Crater High standout, ranked
first in the state entering the meet
with a top throw of 60 feet, 7 inch
es. He won the final meet of the
season with a throw 58-2.
“Chris is one of the top throwers
in Oregon and will be a big addi
tion for us in the shot put and dis
cus,” Smith said. “He should
make an immediate impact and is
someone we can build around in
those areas.”
The Ducks will lose Rian In
grim, a 2001 NCAA provisional
qualifier indoors in the shot put,
but will retain Hillsboro native
James March, the team leader in
the shot put and discus.
Second time around
When Mary Etter participated in
the 2000 Prefontaine Classic Grand
Prix, she was a freshman, still
soaking up the Oregon experience
and preparing for her first NCAA
Championships appearance.
So when she threw 162-2 while
participating in the discus in the
meet, it wasn’t such a big deal to
the Everett, Wash., native.
In 2002, after participating in
two NCAA Championships, the
junior decided to give the meet a
try again. Etter again finished last
in the meet with a throw of 172-02,
but it was a big difference.
“The first time I did the Pre
ontaine, I was really uncomfort
ible,” Etter said at Sunday’s event.
‘This time was so much better.
2002 Prefontaine winner
‘Aretha Hill is the nicest woman
you’ll ever meet, and Suzy Powell
s pretty nice too.”
Etter will compete on Friday at
he 2002 NCAA Championships
n Baton Rouge, La., as the ninth
anked athlete in the nation in
he discus.
“We were happy with how she
hrew,” Oregon head coach Tom
rieinonen said of Etter’s day at
:he Prefontaine. “She got within
Five feet of her season best and
ilso had another 169-foot throw
— either of those would normal
ly make the final of the NCAA
meet so we feel that she’s throw
ing strongly at the right time of
the year.”

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 29). You're naturally
creative. This year, practice being retentive. That
means learning how to hold on to whatever you
acquire. Build up some security for later. How
hard could it be? You're smart. Let somebody
else make the mistakes
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10
is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
ARIES (March 21 -April 19) - Today is a 5 - Think
before you speak. It's easy to make a dumb mis
take that's impossible to take back. The less
said, the better - unless you're sure you're right,
of course
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Today is an 8 -
Trade something you have a lot of for the thing
you really want. There's plenty of this over here,
and that over there. It's a win-win situation.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 7 - The
temptation to dig into savings is great. Money is
burning a hole in your pocket. If you really must
have that one special treat, you can get more
money from a faraway source.
CANCER (June 22-July 22) - Today is a 7 - Are
you under pressure to make a decision? Don't
know which way you should go? Ask a person
with more experience. Then, give something up
to gain something better.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 6 - You re
cently had a few dreams that didn't materialize
Keep the faith, and complete an old task. Better
things are in store.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is a 7 - You
have a tough choice to make. Should you go out
with your pals or make time for one special per
son? How about special person now, friends to
morrow? That should work.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) - Today is a 6 - Can you
find a safe space and hide out? That would be
perfect; you need the rest. Your recent activities
may have just about worn you out. Protect your
self.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) - Today is a 5 - The
more you learn, the farther you'll go. Right now,
however, the one precludes the other. Postpone
your evening out until Saturday. Stay home and
study.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is a 4 -
Keep just enough money in your pocket to cover
your needs, and put all the rest into savings. If
you're investing, check out household goods
and services. No transportation or communica
tion. Still too risky.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is an 8 -
You emerge triumphant again. Or at least you're
still kicking. Discuss priorities with your partner
as you enter this new phase. Those priorities
may have changed
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is a 6 -
There's hardly time to go out for lunch. You're
still working on an old assignment, and new
ones are pouring in. Set priorities. First things
first.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) - Today is a 7 - A
disagreement about how something should be
done is apt to erupt. You're pretty shy, but you
can take command when necessary.
