Continued from 1B
with the American Cancer
Society to raise awareness
through a campaign called
“Together: Nothing Is Impos-
sible.” Grunewald and two-time
Olympic triple jump gold
medalist Christian Taylor are
featured in a public service
announcement,
encouraging
Americans to contribute for each
medal that Team USA earns at
the world championships later
this summer in London.
“Many people in the track
and field community have been
touched by cancer in some
way and are ‘doers’ by nature,”
Grunewald said. “This is a perfect

basketball series
SISTERS — The 1A Oregon
Basketball Coaches Association
All-Star Series featured saw several
area stars hit the court.
Recent graduates Justin Williams
(Helix), Chandler Case (Nixyaawii),
Hannah McCarty (Echo), Megan
Hauner (Arlington) and Joely Patnode
(Arlington) all participated in the series
on June 16-17 at Sisters HS.
Players were invited to participate

this summer. It truly makes the
medals mean more.”
Some things to know heading
into nationals this week:
HEAT WAVE: The competi-
tion schedule Thursday has been
altered with the temperature
expected to reach triple digits
most of the week. With a high of
107 degrees predicted, the men’s
and women’s 10,000 events were
pushed an hour later into the
evening. The men’s event won’t
start until 10:09 p.m. The coolest
day will be Sunday when it’s only
supposed to be 97 degrees.
HEALING: Sprinter Justin
Gatlin has been dealing with a
quadriceps/groin injury since
February. He wouldn’t put a
percentage on his health as he
plans to compete in the 100 and
200. “I’ve been to a lot of cham-
pionships and trials and have not
been 100 percent,” Gatlin said.
“I’m where I need to be at.”
TICKETS
PUNCHED:
Being a world or Diamond
League champion earned nine
U.S. athletes automatic entries
into the world championships.
The defending world champions
include Tianna Bartoletta (long
jump), Allyson Felix (400), Joe
Kovacs (shot put) and Taylor
(triple jump). Those earning spots
via the Diamond League are
Kerron Clement (400 hurdles),
Keni Harrison (100 hurdles), Erik
Kynard (high jump), LaShawn
Merritt (400) and Cassandra Tate
(400 hurdles).
EXPECTING:
Around
five months pregnant with her
second child, Alysia Montano
is entered in the 800. Montano
famously ran at the 2014 U.S.
championships while 34 weeks
pregnant and finished in 2:32.13
— nearly 35 seconds slower
than her personal best of 1:57.34
in 2010.
THE
NEXT
SPRINT
STANDOUT: With Gatlin,
Tyson Gay and Merritt all in
their 30s, this might be the
season when some new faces
emerge on the sprint scene. Keep
a close watch on Tennessee
standout Christian Coleman ,
who turned pro after recently
winning the 100 and 200 at the
NCAA championships.
