    Women finish seventh in Pac-10 finale
Senior Becky Holliday earns her
first Rac-10 title as field athletes
dominate for the Ducks
Women’s track and field
Jesse Thomas
Sports Reporter
Redshirt senior Becky Holliday
has seen the situation before.
The pole vault is winding down
and she has no one to compete with.
But when you are ranked No. 1 in
the nation, that can happen.
At the Pacific-10 Conference
Championships on Sunday, the real
ity was no different. Hollidlay was left
to compete against her own will
when no other competitor could
clear 13 feet, 7 inches.
She could have opted out with the
Pae-10 tide after 13-7, but the Sparks,
Nev., native got it in her head to jump
nine inches
higher and
make her own
school record a
little more out
of reach.
“It’s awe
some, it was def
initely what I
wanted,” Holli
day said after
clearing 14-6, a
personal best by Holliday
3/4 of an inch.
“As soon as I stepped out on the run
way I knew. I just had to grab a certain
pole and jump on it and I did.”
Holliday missed all three attempts
at 14-9.
The Ducks racked up 19 points in
the pole vault, helping them to a sev
enth-place finish overall, above Ari
zona and California. UCLA took
home the team title for the third
straight year with 155 points, leaving
runner-up Stanford 15 points shy.
“We didn’t have much in the way
of breakthroughs today,” Oregon
head coach Tom Heinonen said.
“Becky was just out of site and we’re
glad the vaulters did so well.”
On the runway, the Ducks account
ed for 11 of their 60 points, the second
highest scoring event for Oregon.
Sophomore Roslyn Lundeen was
on her way to a Pac-10 javelin title
after hitting 159-8, a one-foot -five
inch season best, on just her second
throw. But conference leader Inga
Stasiulionyte let one rip for 168-11
on her second-to-last throw and
Lundeen had to settle for second and
eight team points.
“I couldn’t be happier with the
placing,” said Lundeen, who entered
the meet ranked fourth. “To come
away in second, I can’t complain.”
Senior Mary Etter finished sixth
in Saturday’s shot put, her highest
Pac-10 honor in the event. She re
turned to finish fourth in the discus
(177-1) on Sunday yet fouled her
last four throws.
Etter’s final throw of more than
188 feet would have given her the
conference title by more than five
feet if it hadn’t landed foul.
“I’ve been hitting 180s in prac
tice,” Etter said. “I threw as best as I
could, I just need to quit throwing
conservatively. I want regionals right
now, I don’t want to wait.”
Three-quarters of Oregon’s 60
points came from field events as the
Ducks have dominated in the field
over the past few years. The track
athletes did not fare nearly as well,
partially due to excessive heat.
Oregon’s only individual scorers
on the track were seniors Janette
Davis and Eri Macdonald in the 400
and 800 meters, respectively.
After entering the meet ranked
fourth and hoping for a top-three fin
ish, Davis finished sixth in 55.02 sec
onds. Macdonald finished seventh in
2:10.87, three seconds slower than
her season best.
Oregon’s 4x400 meter relay did
improve by more than three sec
onds, finishing fifth in 3:42.86, earn
ing the team four points after enter
ing the meet ranked eighth.
“I feel good about the way our kids
competed but we didn’t light the
place up,” Heinonen said. “But that
happens in track.”
