A list of other dates/times & cable affiliate stations follow at the end of this release.
Last weekend, (5/17-18) the Duck men and women took third and seventh in the Pacific-10 Conference Championships, hosted by USC in Los Angeles, Calif. The UO men were part of the tightest 1-4 team battle - one that featured a 16-point differential - since 1969's 14-point margin.
Individually in the league finale, collegiate season leader and redshirt senior Becky Holliday paced the UO women with their first-ever pole vault title, and her personal best of 14-6 broke the school and Pac-10 meet records, and put her second on the 2003 world list, third all-time among collegians (#2 among American collegians), and eighth all-time among Americans. Redshirt senior teammate Niki McEwen tied for second in the same event (13-3 1/2), and sophomore Roslyn Lundeen also claimed runner-up honors (javelin, 159-8). The Duck men featured three individual champions - redshirt senior Santiago Lorenzo (decathlon, 7,564), junior Adam Jenkins (javelin, 217-9) and redshirt senior Adam Kriz (hammer, 221-3) - and three runners-up - redshirt sophomore Brett Holts (steeple, 8:55.00), redshirt junior Jason Hartmann (10,000, 29:18.00) and freshman Eric Mitchum (110 hurdles, 13.73w, w:+3.8).
Looking ahead, the Duck M&W venture into unchartered qualifying waters in their second stop of the championship slate in the upcoming NCAA West Regional at Stanford University, May 30-31.
The Ducks will send 24 men's individual qualifiers (and both relays) and 22 women's individual qualifiers (and the 4x400 relay) to the inaugural championship enacted by the NCAA Championships Division 1 Board of Directors after several years of study by the U.S. Track Coaches Association.
Four, two-day meet will be held simultaneously to determine a majority of the NCAA Championships fields, slated to follow 11 days later in Sacramento, Calif. (Wed.-Sat., 6/11-14). The West Regional will features teams from California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona (including 40 men's teams and 42 women's teams).
Other regions that were also drawn in a vertical geographic fashion follow: Midwest (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, Wyoming), Mideast (Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Wisconsin), and Northeast (Connecticut, DC, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, Vermont, West Virginia).
First-day action in the West Regional, Friday, May 30 begins with the men's hammer at noon, with running events beginning with the 400 prelims at 4 pm, and the final event, the men's 5K at 8:50 pm. On final day action Saturday, the women's hammer kicks off field event action at 10 am, the 4x100 relay opens running action at 2:45 pm, and the final event is the 4x400 at 6:20 pm.
