Harris finished only 0.03 seconds be
hind Prairie View’s Lewis Edmon
son, who took second.
“A lot of guys really brought their
‘A’ game,” Harris said.
But the senior said he’s confident of
his chances in today’s semifinal heat.
“It doesn’t take a superman to
win the championship, you just
have to be consistent all the way
through,” Harris said.
In the javelin, Bakke — who was
the last thrower into the meet after
winning the Pacific-10 Conference
title two weeks ago — finished in
16th, four spots higher than his
projected finish of 20th.
“Going into the meet I had noth
ing to lose and everything to gain,”
Bakke said. “I gave it everything I
had, and that’s all you can ask for.”
Bakke launched his best throw of
211 feet, 1 inch on his first attempt.
On the second attempt, he tweaked
his shoulder and couldn’t match his
first distance.
His third throw
also fell short.
“I was pretty
happy with
that first
throw, but after
that my shoul
der was hurt
ing,” Bakke
said.
Kansas sen
ior Scott Russell won the event
with a heave of 262 feet. In order to
make the finals, Bakke would have
needed a throw of at least 230 feet.
His Pac-10 winning throw was
210-7.
“I was kind of hoping to make
(the finals),” Bakke said.
But Bakke is just a sophomore,
and has the possibility of more
NCAA trips in his future.
Harris, however, is a senior and
will not get another shot if he fails to
advance in the hurdles today. The
same could be said for Billy Pappas, a
senior who will compete in prelimi
nary decathlon
events today.
Pappas will
compete in five
events today —
the long jump,
high jump, shot
put, 100 and
400 — before
finishing on Sat
urday with the
3AKKE discus, pole
vault, javelin, 110 hurdles and 1,500.
Pappas, Harris and sophomore
pole vaulter Trevor Woods are the
only Ducks who haven’t finished
their events. Woods will have per
haps the best chance of the three to
score points. He ranks fifth nationally
heading into this afternoon’s pole
vault competition, and is looking to
avenge his no-height performance at
the 2001 NCAA meet.

Etterends Oregon’s
NCAA participation
Oregon now has one competitor left,
Mary Etter, in the team’s quest to earn
double-digits in points for the first time
since 1995, when it earned 10,
Etter, in her third appearance at the
NCAA Championships in the discus
— finishing eighth in 2000 and 19th
in 2001 — has high hopes on earning
the team much-needed points.
“My goal all year has been 180
(feet),” she said. “If I can hit 180, I’ll
be happy because I’ll have reached
my goal, but then on the other hand
I’ll have placed at nationals. Hit my
goal and everything else will take
care of itself.”

make you live in a box, and if you
don’t conform, they won’t let you
be in it.”
Pallone holds the people in man
agement positions to blame for
much of the homophobia in athlet
ics. He said that it is not the athletes
because “they just want to win,”
but collegiate athletics directors
and owners perpetuate the anti-gay
sentiment in athletics.
“Universities don’t do enough
for their lesbian and gay and trans
gender athletes,” he said. “There is
someone out there, and maybe
someone in here, who thinks about
suicide every single day. I will nev
er stop doing this until nobody
thinks about suicide.”
Throughout his years of touring
the country to promote his message,
Pallone has received approximate
ly 120,000 letters from supporters
and those who have told him that
he saved them from suicide.
“That is why I do what I do,” Pal
lone said. “One is way too many.”
