Both the men’s and women’s track teams finished third
in the Mt. Hood Relays last Saturday. The two teams
combined to take third place in the overall point totals.
This last weekend, the
Clackamas track team traveled to
Mount Hood Community College
for a relay meet in which all the
running events in this meet were
run as relays.
Both the men and women’s
scores were combined to come up
with one team score. Clackamas
had some good performances by
some individuals, but as a team,
they finished a disappointing
third. Clackamas ended up with
142 points for the meet, with the
men gaining 75 and the women
gaining 67.
The women’s team won the
400-, the 800- and the 1600-meter
relays. The 400-meter relay team
consisted of Christy Wells, Mel
issa Abramson, Kami Sisk and
Marea Crowe. They ran a season
best 50.27.
The 800-meter relay team
ran a 1:47.50. The team consisted
of Kathy Shuey, Abramson, Sisk
and Crowe. The 1600-meter re
lay team of April Lohrey, Shuey,
Abramson and Crowe ran a
4:07.38. That time placed them
at sixth best on the Clackamas all-
time list.
The women placed a strong
second in 3200-meter relay with
a time of 10:00.46. The team con
sisted of Jaime Fairchild, Rebecca
Graham, Wendy Johnson and
Lohrey.
Abramson gave a strong per
sonal performance in the 100-
meter hurdles, finishing third
with a season-best 15.70.
The men competed well in
several events. They placed sec
ond in the 3200-meter relay with
a time of 7:56.38. Brent Roeger,
Dean Rowell, Scott Bills and Will
Haskins ran what coach Mike
Hodges said “was the fastest time
in the last nine years.” Roeger
ran a first leg of 1:56.09, which
was a personal best by three and
a half seconds.
The 400-meter relay team of
Quinton Robinson, Jamie Jansen,
Mike Thompson and Quinton
Moffitt placed third with a time
of 43.13, which was a season best.
The men placed fourth in the
1600-meter relay with a time of
3:22.13, which placed them at
ninth in the Clackamas record
books. The team consisted of
Thompson, Moffitt, Jansen and
Robinson. Jansen ran 49.08 on
the third leg, which coach Hodges
said was his strongest perfor
mance of the year.
In the distance medley, the
men’s team got first with a time
of 10:47.76. The team consisted
of Haskins, Nick Radonich, Bills
and Roeger. The men placed sec
ond in the 6400-meter relay with
atimeof 18:53.18. Theteamcon-
sisted of Randy Voight, Radonich,
Jon Cox and Rowell.
The men placed well in the
field events, with Corey
Brizendine getting first in the jav
elin with a throw of 197 feet, 10
inches to remain undefeated this
season. Jim Hagemann placed
fourth with a throw of 179 feet
and 10 inches to move him into
the tenth spot on the all-time
Clackamas list.
The men placed well in the
pole vault, with Brian Clement
placing second with a vault of 14
feet. Bill Hurford vaulted 14 feet
and 6 inches which places him at
ninth all-time in Clackamas his
tory.
Jim Miller placed second in
the shot put, with a throw of 45
feet 6 inches. Jamie Jansen placed
fourth in the triple jump with a
jump of 44 feet 1 inch that quali
fied him for the Northwest cham
pionship meet.
The men’s score was hurt
because two of their highest scor
ers were at an invitational meet
at the University of Oregon. The
two men were distance runner Leo
Sanders and pole vaulter Craig
Connors.
At the Eugene meet, Sand
ers placed second in the 1500
meters with a time of 3:56.04.
Connors placed second with a
vault of 15 feet 6 inches.
Overall, the meet was full of
fine individual performances and,
as a teám, the performance was
almost as good.
Clackamas will compete in
the Western Oregon Open in
Monmouth on Saturday. The meet
begins at 10 a.m.
