Doug Oberst ran a 9:31.5 to
win the steeplechase well ahead
of the field. Originally, Oberst
was scheduled to run in the
5,000 meters, too, but extra
team points weren't needed so
he didn't run,
according to
Tipton.
Randy Bolliger came back in
the shot with a put of 51-6 to
win and Dan Jackson was third
with 46-4%.
"Kelly (Britz) won a gold in
the 1,500 and just did the kind
of job he neededto. He was one
second off the National quali­
fying with a 3:55.9," Tipton
said.
"Kelly knew he had to come
back in the 800 and he did a
good job in that too.
Lynn
Mayo from Lane won it but
Kelly was closing and was only
two strides behind him at the
end," Tipton said. "I think that
shows his potential and it also
makes us anxious for a rematch."
The 400-meter relay team of
Tony Terry, Ed McAllistar, Dave
Rudihauser and Joseph Jones
finished fourth in the race with
a 44.3. According to Tiptorj a
. mix-up in the handoff accounted
for part of the problem.

The only highlight for Clacka­
mas was Shawn Riley's two hits
in three tries as Umpqua's Pat­
terson, who entered the game
with a 2.57 earned run average,
held the Cougars to only three
hits.

Against Linn-Benton, Satur-
day in Eugene, Clackamas ran
into the league's top two pit-
chers and lost 5-2 and 4-0. In
the first game, the Cougars faced
the league's top pitcher with a
.88 earned run average and a 6-0
record and came away with only
two hits.
In the second game Clacka­
mas was held to just three hits
and no earned runs.
The losses dropped Clacka­
mas to 13-11 in league play, six
games away from first, and un­
less the top teams falter, the
Cougars are out of playoff con­
tention.
Ken Nance, coming off an
injury, took fifth in the 11O­
meter hurdles with a 16.7. He
will be looking for a 15.8 or
15.7 to qualify him for Nat­
ionals.
Dave Reed moved up eight
inches in the triple jump to set
a new school record. For the
second week Reed bettered his
jump by that margin.
Reed's
46-9 3/4 breaks Brian Leach­
man's mark of 46-7 3/4.
"It looks to be a good con­
test for this week," Tipton said.
"Dave had several strong jumps
at 46. If he continues to im­
prove he can beat Lane's Mike
Yeoman."
"Dave Rudihauser was not
satisfied with his race in the 400
meters. He was watching other
people and held back when he
shouldn't have," Tipton said.
"At Regionals he's going to
run in the 800. That will set
him up for next year and then
he can decide which he prefers.
He's only a freshman this year,"
he said.
Joe Jones took a close second
in the 100-meter dash and also
scored a best in the long jump.
However, because of the caliber
of competition Jones' personal
best placed him only fifth.
Preston Martin will be fight­
ing for the top spot this week­
end after placing second with a
6-2 jump behind Southwestern
Oregon's Joe Thomas. Martin
has a best of 6-4.
Dave Grosnickle
managed
fourth in the pole vault at 13
with the winner coming in at
14-6.
"Ed McAllister's performance
was probably the highlight of the
day," Tipton said. "He finished
second with a 56.1 in the 400-
meter hurdles. That is over a
two-second
improvement for
him and I'm sure he can beat the
guy who did beat him."
In the 1,600-meter
relay
Clackamas ran eight to ten sec­
onds off their best time. Ac­
cording to Tipton, they ran the
race only for insurance points
and not for time.
"We're still a little ways off
of what we can do, Mike Murphy
and Curt Lowery showed that,
but we are primed for out­
standing performances," he said.
Murphy placed unusually low
with a fourth in the javelin
with 184-4% and Lowery didn't
place which is also uncharacter­
istic.
"The team really came to­
gether, they were serious and
determined.
They
collected
themselves and they didn't give
just a partial performance," Tip­
ton said.
Hudson discontent
The College golf team passed
through a bit of regression at a
tournament played at Tokatee
Golf Club, Blue River last week,
"We played terrible!" said
Coach Jim Hudson in reference
to his team's performance.
The tournament was a "three-
way"
competition between
Clackamas,
Linn-Benton, and
Chemeketa.
Chemeketa won
with 317; Linn-Benton, 322; and
the Cougars gouged out a 334
total.
"I don't know why we are
playing so bad," Hudson said
referring to Adamski's 81 and to
the other scores he considered
inexcusable.
"Adamski is capable of scr­
atch golf and Odin, Tirrill, and
John Innocenti are capable of
shooting
around five
over.
Adamski just doesn't practice
short game enought," Hudson
said.
In this tourney, Steve For­
tier's 74 led all scores (Fortier
is from Linn-Benton).
Randy
Wolf, a smooth swinging fresh­
man from Chemeketa, swept in
for second place with a 75, while
the other players on his team
were close behind.
For Clackamas, Tom Tirrill
led the way with an 80. Adam­
ski had, as already mentioned,
81, while Innocenti had
had
89, Pat Odin 84, and Steve
Thomas 94.
Clackamas will go to the Lo­
wer Columbia Invitational at
Longview on Friday.
Next Friday, instead of play­
ing in a chapman tournament,
the Cougars will play Clark Col­
lege at Royal Oaks Country
Club. Hudson looks forward to
playing on the course.
The
Regional Golf Tournament will
follow the Clark match.
"We have a better chance at
qualifying for nationals this year
than last." Hudson said.
"The teams to beat are Ump­
qua and Chemeketa. Chemeketa
is always consistent, and Cy
Perkins at Umpqua has four
players that didn't make the
University of Oregon team, but
are very good."
Women take State * look for Regional title
The women's track team ran
away with the State title Sat­
urday at Roseburg. The women
swept many of the
running
events and lacked depth only in
some of the field events.
