2012 SEASON

2012 Season It will be a championship year at Historic Hayward Field in 2012.

Not only will TrackTown USA host the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials, but the inaugural Pac-12 Championships will also be held in Eugene, part of an exciting 2012 University of Oregon schedule.

Colorado and Utah join the 10 current schools for the first Pac-12 meet, which will begin with the decathlon and heptathlon May 5-6 and continue with the main portion of the meet May 12-13.

The regular season is also highlighted by the April 7 Pepsi Team Invitational, which will feature three-time defending men’s and women’s NCAA Champion Texas A&M travelling to Eugene for the second time in the last three years. Joining the Ducks and Aggies will be men’s and women’s teams from both UCLA and Washington, which should make for one of the most exciting Pepsi meets in recent memory. It will be UCLA’s first appearance at the Pepsi meet since 1994.

Oregon opens the home outdoor season with the Oregon Preview on March 18, and also has the traditional Oregon Relays April 19-21 and the Oregon Twilight May 5. This year, the Oregon Relays will include a combined events competition April 19-20.

“This will be a really fantastic year for Tracktown USA,” said Lananna. “We are excited and honored to be hosting the inaugural Pac-12 Championships, as well as the Pepsi Team Invitational and our other top-level meets.”

The Women of Oregon are the two-time defending indoor champions and the Ducks open the 2012 season Jan. 14 at the Blue and Orange Invitational in Nampa, Idaho, site of the 2012 NCAA Indoor Championships.

The indoor season also includes the Texas A&M Mondo Challenge Jan. 27-28 in College Station, Texas, the Don Kirby Elite Classic Feb. 10 in Albuquerque, N.M., two meets in Seattle, Wash. - the Feb. 10-11 Husky Classic, the Feb. 24-25 MPSF Championships and the March 3 UW Final Qualifier - and the March 2-3 Alex Wilson Invitational.

The indoor season concludes March 9-10 at the NCAA Championships, hosted by Boise State in Nampa, Idaho.

The outdoor season starts a week later with the Oregon Preview.

Road meets during the outdoor season include the March 23-24 USC Invitational, the April 2-3 Sam Adams Multi-Events, the April 13 John Knight Twilight at Western Oregon, the Penn Relays April 26-28 and the April 29 Payton Jordan Invitational at Stanford.

Following the Pac-12 meet, Oregon will travel to Texas for the NCAA West Preliminary Rounds May 24-26. The outdoor season wraps up June 6-9 at the NCAA Championships in Des Moines, Iowa.

Following the collegiate season, Oregon will host the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials June 21-July 1 at Historic Hayward Field.

A 2012 season ticket includes all regular season meets, but not the Pac-12 Championships. Ticket prices are $65 for reserved, $55 for adult general admission and $45 for child/senior general admission.

The family plan, general admission for two adults and three kids, is available for $125.

Pac-12 Championships

MEN’S TEAM PREVIEW

An Influx of New Talent Oregon’s 2011 season was a dichotomy of the old and the new. The Ducks received terrific performances from veterans like A.J. Acota, Matthew Centrowitz, Steve Finley, Justin Frick, David Klech, Danny Mercado, Jordan Stray, Vernell Warren and Alex Wolff to win their fifth consecutive Pac-10 championship.

All those student-athletes have since graduated.

However, the group of young Ducks could be among its strongest in years. The flock of first and second year performers includes the nation’s No. 1 recruiting class from 2010 and the No. 2 class of 2011.

At the top of that list is sophomore Mike Berry, the 2011 Pac-10 champion at 400 meters and school recordholder with a time of 44.91. Other youngsters to watch include sophomores Mac Fleet, who was the national runner-up in the mile in 2010 before redshirting the 2011 season, Boru Guyota, who was fifth in the Pac-10 at 800 meters, Ethan Powell, who was seventh in the javelin at the league meet, and Parker Stinson, the three-time junior 10,000 meter champion who was seventh in the event at the Pac-10 meet a year ago.

The Ducks also look to welcome some redshirt freshmen into the fold from that No. 1 recruiting class in javelin thrower Sam Crouser, decathlete Dakotah Keys and sprinter Kelly Beck.

Mike Berry

Newcomers for the 2012 season include distance runners Chris Brewer, Jeramy Elkaim, Russell Hornsby, Matt Jablonski, Chad Noelle and Ryan Pickering, sprinters Arthur Delaney, Jack Galpin and Joeal Hotchkins, hurdler Johnathan Cabral, decathlete Alec Fellows and hammer thrower Greg Skipper. All are freshmen except Hotchkins, a junior transfer.

That isn’t meant to dismiss the elder statesmen on the squad. In fact, the Ducks do have conference championships experience across the board at the top of the roster. Senior Luke Puskedra is the most experienced distance runner on the squad and a four-time Pac-10 scorer. Other seniors who have scored at the Pac-10 meet include Kevin Godfrey (decathlon), Bryan Harper (4x400 meter relay), Eric Hersey (110 meter hurdles), Britton Nelson (javelin), Brian Schaudt (triple jump) and Travis Thompson (800 meters).

Add in juniors like 2011 Pac-10 runners-up Elijah Greer (800 meters) and Austin Ouderkirk (pole vault), and the Men of Oregon look to be as balanced as they have been in years.

Sprints/Relays Few freshmen had the impact that Mike Berry did last season. The Seattle, Wash., native won the Pac-10 400 meter title in a school record 44.91. He went on to finish fourth at the NCAA Championships and fifth at the USA Championships to earn a spot in the Team USA 4x400 relay pool. At the IAAF World Championships in Daegu, South Korea, he helped the Americans win their semifinal heat and advance to the finals, and though he did not run in the final, earned a gold medal with Team USA’s victory.

He’ll be joined in the short races by speedy freshmen Kelly Beck (Central Point, Ore.), Arthur Delaney (Gresham, Ore.) and Jack Galpin (Medofrd, Ore.), as well as junior transfer Joeal Hotchkins (Las Vegas, Nev.) and senior Bryan Harper.

Luke Puskedra

Middle distance runners Travis Thomspon (Newport) and Elijah Greer (Lake Oswego) join Beck (Central Point), Delaney (Gresham), Galpin (Medford), Harper (Junction City) in the relay pool, among others, and all hail from Oregon, meaning the Ducks could potentially field all in-state 4x100 and 4x400 meter relay squads at some point in 2012.

Oregon also has football players B.J. Kelley and Dior Mathis on the roster, with others potentially joining the team later in the season.

Middle Distance Junior Elijah Greer, sophomore Mac Fleet and a large group of newcomers will carry the work for the middle distance group in 2012. Greer was the Pac-10 runner-up in the 800 meters in 2011, while Fleet was the national runner-up in the mile in 2010 before redshirting last season.

Sixth-year senior Travis Thompson is also a Pac-10 scorer at 800 meters, as is sophomore Boru Guyota, while sophomore Cole Watson and senior Travis Stanford have Pac-10 experience. Greer (1:45.06/No. 3), Thompson (1:47.60/No. 7) and Guyota (1:47.75/No. 10) all rank in the Ducks’ career top 10 at 800 meters.

But it is the newcomers who are the most intriguing addition to this group. They include Matthew Bell (Santa Monica, Calif.), Chris Brewer (Vista, Calif.), Russell Hornsby (Williamsburg, Va.), Matt Jablonski (Cockeysville, Md.), Matthew Melancon (Eugene, Ore.) and Chad Noelle (Greene, N.Y.).

Noelle, Jablonski and Eklaim went 1-2-3 in the high school mile at the 2011 Millrose Games in New York.

Eric Hersey

MEN’S TEAM PREVIEW Distance Senior Luke Puskedra had his best season on the track as a junior in 2011, placing fifth in the Pac-10 and sixth at the NCAA meet in the 10,000 meters. He was also fifth in the 5,000 at the conference meet. Puskedra ranks sixth in school history at 10,000 meters (28:34.17).

The Ducks also have up-and-coming sophomore Parker Stinson, who was seventh in the 10,000 at the Pac10 meet, and added depth with the mid-year transfer of sophomore Trevor Dunbar, an All-American for the University of Portland.

But the Ducks will need some other runners to step up in both the 5K and 10K, as well as the steeplechase.

Some who have been waiting in the wings include senior Chris Kwiatkowski, junior Bryce Burgess and sophomores Tim Costin, Ben DeJarnette, Mitch Hunt and Brian Shrader.

Newcomers will also see a lot of racing for the Oregon at the longer distances. That includes freshmen Colby Alexander (Strongsville, Ohio), Jeramy Elkaim (Livingston, N.J.), Ryan Pickering (West Palm Beach, Fla.) and Daniel Winn (Portland, Ore.).

Hurdles There is plenty of excitement in the hurdle area where freshman Johnathan Cabral joins senior Eric Hersey.

Cabral, from Calabasas, Calif., was a two-time prep All-American in the hurdles in 2011, while Hersey is a two-time Pac-10 scorer in the 110 meter hurdles and ranks No. 10 in school history in the event (13.94).

Elijah Greer

Jumps Oregon graduated reliable long jumper Vernell Warren, but still has a deep jump corps, especially in the triple jump.

Senior Brian Schaudt will be joined by junior Tyler Pinkney and redshirt freshman Trevor Ferguson.

Schaudt finished third in the Pac-10 in the triple jump in 2011 and now ranks among the school’s top 10 in the event (51-8.25/15.75m). Pinkney was also a Pac-10 qualifier, while Ferguson just missed 50 feet during his redshirt season a year ago.

Senior Danny Marconi is a Pac-10 qualifier in the high jump with a PR of 7-2.25/2.19m, a mark which places him fifth in school history.

Pole Vault Oregon’s high bar duties will be carried by junior Austin Ouderkirk, who was one of the biggest surprises of the 2011 Pac-10 championships. Ouderkirk was the conference’s runner-up and has a best clearance of 16-9.5/5.12m.

Freshman Matt Hidalgo (Banks, Ore.) and junior transfer Jordan Alviso (Mt. San Antonio College/Granite Bay, Calif.) are new to the pole vault team for 2012.

Throws Sam Crouser (Gresham, Ore.), the 2010 national prep athlete of the year, looks to get his Oregon career rolling after redshirting the 2011 season. Crouser set the national prep record in the javelin, 255-4/77.82m in 2010.

Another freshman, Greg Skipper, opens up for the Ducks in the hammer. Skipper, from Oregon City, Ore., was a high school All-American in the event.

Brian Schaudt

The Ducks will also turn to a number of veterans in the throws. Sophomore Ethan Powell was a pleasant surprise at the Pac-10 meet a year ago, finishing seventh in the javelin. Senior Britton Nelson, another Pac-10 scorer, is back after redshirting the 2011 season. Oregon also has senior Josh Heidegger and junior Michael Thompson looking for break out seasons in the javelin.

In the shorter throws, Oregon will turn to senior Randall Horn, while sophomore Tanner Harris and junior Miles Walk are options in the hammer.

Decathlon Oregon’s strong tradition in the combined events figures to be growing in 2012. The Ducks graduated Pac10 runner-up David Klech, but return Pac-10 scorer Kevin Godfrey as well as Dakotah Keys.

Godfrey, a senior, was sixth at the league meet in 2011 with 6,853 points. Keys (Sweet Home, Ore.), who holds the Oregon prep decathlon record of 7,204 points, was primed for a solid season his first year in Eugene, but an injury cut short his season and he ended up with a medical redshirt outdoors. He looks to pick up where 2011 left off.

The Ducks have also added freshman Alec Fellows from Woodway, Wash, in the combined events.

Austin Ouderkirk

WOMEN’S TEAM PREVIEW

A Collection of Talent The Oregon women’s track and field program looks to again be at the top of the national and conference races in 2012. The Ducks have been named the Terry Crawford National Program of the Year for three years running now thanks to a collection of talent that runs across nearly all of the track and field disciplines.

The 2012 team boasts returning NCAA champions in the likes of juniors Anne Kesselring (800 meters) and Jordan Hasay (mile, 3,000 meters), and seniors Brianne Theisen (heptathlon, pentathlon) and Amber Purvis (4x400 meter relay).

The team also features returning conference champions like sophomore English Gardner (100 meters), Hasay (1,500 meters, 5,000 meters), Theisen (heptathlon) and the 4x400 meter relay team of Chizoba Okodogbe, Phyllis Francis, Laura Roesler and Purvis.

Yet that barely begins to scratch the surface of Oregon’s depth.

In addition to those champions, there are All-Americans in seniors Alex Kosinski (5,000 meters) and Bronwyn Crossman (10,000 meters) and juniors Becca Friday (1,500 meters) and Lanie Thompson (steeplechase).

Anne Kesselring

There are also additional returning Pac-10 scorers in sophomores Megan Patrignelli (1,500 meters), Kortney Ross (pole vault) and Sarah Andrews (10,000 meters), junior Taylor Wallace (steeplechase) and seniors Lauryn Newson (long jump), Lyndsay Pearson (400 meter hurdles) and Rebecca Rhodes (long jump).

That’s 19 current team members who have scored at the Pac-10 Championships, a number of whom have now been part of Oregon’s three straight conference championships.

And for good measure, the Ducks welcome the nation’s No. 2 recruiting class to campus for 2012.

That should help the Ducks overcome the graduation of NCAA champion Melissa Gergel (pole vault), AllAmericans Jamesha Youngblood (long jump, triple jump), Claire Michel (steeplechase), Mandy White (100 meters) and Michele Williams (4x400 meter relay) and Pac-10 scorers Jordan Roskelley (pole vault) and Sara Cole (hammer).

Sprints/Relays Oregon’s sprints and relays group returns much of its roster from the record-setting 2011 season and welcomes some talented youngsters to the squad.

Senior Amber Purvis and sophomore English Gardner lead the way, with help from sophomores Phyllis Francis, Chizoba Okodogbe and Laura Roesler, juniors Alexandria Davidson and Devin Gosberry, seniors Camilla Dencer and Lauryn Newson and freshman Jenna Prandini.

Purvis is a record nine-time All-American who holds the school mark in the 200 meters (22.74) and is No. 2 in the 100 (11.21) She also holds the indoor 60 meter (7.20) and 200 (23.17) marks and has a piece of both the indoor and outdoor 4x400 meter marks.

Gardner has the Oregon record at 100 meters, a time of 11.03 from her win at the 2011 Pac-10 Championships, which broke Gail Devers’ meet record and Angela Williams’ U.S. junior record. She also second in the 200 (23.02) and is a key member of the 4x100 meter relay.

Brianne Theisen

In addition to Purvis and Gardner, the Ducks have Prandini, a prep All-American from Clovis, Calif., Davidson and Newson in the sprints to offset the graduation of All-American Mandy White.

In the 400, the Ducks have tremendous depth with Okodogbe, Purvis and Francis, who all rank in the school’s top 10, in addition to Gosberry and Dencer.

Oregon set the school record in the 4x400 meter relay, 3:28.18, at the 2011 NCAA Championships with the team of freshmen Okodogbe, Francis, Rosler and senior Michele Williams. While Williams, who was also a Pac-10 scorer at 400 meters, will need to be replaced, the rest of the mile relay squad return as sophomores and has depth in Purvis and Gosberry, among others.

In the 4x100 relay, the Ducks will turn to Garder, Purvis and Newson, regulars on the squad a year ago, as well as Prandini and Davidson.

Middle Distance Defending NCAA 800 meter champion Anne Kesselring leads a middle distance corps that also includes NCAA indoor mile champ Jordan Hasay and an impressive corps of NCAA and Pac-10 scorers.

Kesselring’s win last season was only one of the highlights between 800 meters and a mile. The Ducks return every point at 800 and 1,500 meters, including Hasay, a junior, who claimed the Pac-10 1,500 meter title in addition to her indoor mile crown.

Junior Becca Friday was one of the surprises in the 1,500 meters, finishing fifth at that distance at the NCAA Championships and fourth at the Pac-10 meet. Kesselring, a junior, was also a Pac-10 scorer at 1,500 meters (4:21.36).

English Gardner

The depth continues with the sophomore class. Laura Roesler was third in the 800 at the Pac-10 meet and a semifinalist at the NCAA Championships, while Megan Patrignelli was a Pac-10 scorer at 1,500 meters.

18

WOMEN’S TEAM PREVIEW Sophomore Phyllis Francis is also in the mix at 800 meters as is her sister, freshman Claudia Francis. A couple of Ducks coming off injuries, senior Alex Kosinski and sophomore Sarah Penney, can also run the middle distances.

Distance The distances are another area of strength for the Ducks, where the only significant graduation came in the steeplechase. In fact, the group may be stronger with sophomore Jordan Hasay leading the way and senior Alex Kosinski back from the injury that forced her to miss the 2011 outdoor season.

Hasay was the Pac-10 champion at 5,000 meters (in addition to the 1,500 crown) and won the NCAA indoor 3,000 meter title (in addition to the mile win). She was also an All-American in the 5,000 meters and comes into her junior season with eight All-America awards - one behind Purvis for the school record.

Kosinski was second in the 5,000 at the 2010 Pac-10 meet and ran third at that distance at the NCAA Championships.

They will be backed by All-America senior Bronwyn Crossman (10,000 meters), sophomore Sarah Andrews, senior transfer Kimber Mattox (Willamette/Bend, Ore.) and freshmen Molly Grabill (Poway, Calif.) and Allison Woodward (Green Bay, Wis.) In the steeplechase, Oregon loses 2010 Pac-10 champion and school record-holder Claire Michel, but returns Pac-10 scorers Lanie Thompson and Taylor Wallace. Thompson, a sophomore ranks No. 2 in school history (10:03.74), while Wallace, a junior is No. 3 (10:18.19).

Jordan Hasay Hurdles Senior Lyndsay Pearson is a Pac-10 scorer in the 400 meter hurdles and leads a mix of young and veteran hurdlers.

The Ducks have seniors from other areas - Rebecca Rhodes, Camilla Dencer and Brianne Theisen - as potential hurdlers. Rhodes, a jumper, led the Ducks in the 100 meter hurdles last season (13.96), while Theisen, an NCAA champion heptathlete, holds the school record in the 100 hurdles (13.39). Dencer showed potential in the 400 hurdles a season ago.

Oregon also has freshman Anetra Brown (Indianapolis, Ind.) in the hurdles.

Jumps Oregon looks to be improved in the high jump and will turn to freshman Jenna Prandini to overcome the graduation of Pac-10 long and triple jump champion Jamesha Youngblood.

The Ducks have a solid corps returning in the long jump, including Pac-10 scorers Lauryn Newson and Rebecca Rhodes, both seniors. But newcomers will have to carry the banner in the high jump and triple jump.

In the high jump, the Ducks have added a couple of 5-10 jumpers in freshmen Lauren Crockett (Ogden, Utah) and Chancey Summers (Eagle Creek, Ore.). The Ducks also have heptathlete Brianne Theisen as an option. She has a PR in the event of 6-1.25/1.86m, which ranks second in school history.

Prandini, from Clovis, Calif., was a prep All-American in the triple jump. She and junior Maggie Pietka are also the main options in the triple jump.

Amber Purvis

Pole Vault The Ducks will miss 2011 NCAA pole vault champion Melissa Gergel and NCAA qualifier and Pac-10 scorer Jordan Roskelley.

But the young vaulters will be led by sophomore Kortney Ross, who was third at the 2011 Pac-10 Championships (13-4.5/4.08m). She will be joined by sophomore Sammie Clark and freshman Anginae Monteverde (Fresno, Calif.). Monteverde was a high school All-American in the pole vault after clearing 13-6.

Throws Sophomore Laura Bobek is the only Pac-10 competitor in an otherwise unproven list of young throwers.

Bobek was a Pac-10 competitor in both the shot put and the discus as a freshman in 2011.

Among the young throwers looking to break through are sophomores Jill Fogelstrom, Felicia Odle, Rachel Perry and Hannah Picknell, newcomer McKenzie Henderson (The Dalles, Ore.), a sophomore transfer from Lane Community College, and freshmen Bailey Flynn (Beaverton, Ore.), Daphne Chambers (Springfield, Ore.) and Lauren Sens (Elk Grove, Calif.)

Heptathlon Five-time NCAA champion Brianne Theisen has been one of the most impressive student-athletes in recent history. She a two-time national champion in both the indoor pentathlon and outdoors in heptathlon. After setting the collegiate record in winning the 2011 NCAA indoor pentathlon title (4,540 points), she redshirted the outdoor season with a back injury. Fully recovered, the Humboldt, Sask., native is a threat to win the 2012 Bowerman Award as the nation’s top track and field athlete.

The Ducks have also added promising freshman Alyssa Monteverde (Fresno, Calif.) in the heptathlon.

Vin Lananna The tremendous scope of Vin Lananna’s accomplishments has established him as one of the premier leaders in track and field in the United States. Named Associate Athletic Director at the University of Oregon in July 2005, Lananna has been guiding a vision for the Oregon track and field program and Historic Hayward Field as the center of track and field in this country.

He has been a driving force behind the University’s bids that landed the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Trials, the 2010, 2013 and 2014 NCAA Track & Field Championships and the 2009 and 2011 USATF Championships.

Lananna also served as the head men’s coach for Team USA at the 2011 IAAF World Track & Field Championships in Daegu, South Korea.

In 2011, the University of Oregon and TrackTown USA played host to a record-setting USA Track & Field Championships. That came on the heels of a collegiate season where the Ducks won their second straight women’s indoor national title, fifth straight men’s Pac-10 title and third consecutive women’s league title.

Matthew Centrowitz captured both the NCAA and USA outdoor crown at 1,500 meters, while the Ducks also had NCAA champions in the pole vault (Melissa Gergel) and 800 meters (Anne Kesselring). Indoors, the women claimed individual national titles in the mile (Jordan Hasay), 3,000 meters (Hasay) and pentathlon (Brianne Theisen). With an indoor national title and a runner-up performance outdoors, the women were honored as the USTFCCCA’s Terry Crawford Program of the Year for the third straight season.

The conference meet produced women’s champions in the 100 meters (English Gardner), 200 meters (Amber Purvis), 1,500 meters (Hasay), 5,000 meters (Hasay) and the 4x400 meter relay team. On the men’s side, it was Centrowitz winning his third straight league title at 1,500 meters along with Mike Berry (400 meters) and Steve Finley (steeplechase).

A season earlier, Eugene hosted a wildly successful NCAA Championships in 2010 that not only established an all-time attendance record, but also surpassed all expectations in terms of the overall experience for both the fans and student-athletes. The 2010 season saw Oregon win its first-ever NCAA Indoor women’s national title. The women were also the runner-up at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, while the men were second in both cross country and indoor track, and took third at the outdoor meet. For the second consecutive year, both teams were recognized as the USTFCCCA’s national programs of the year. The Oregon teams combined for nine NCAA individual and relay titles. Among those were Andrew Wheating’s incredible sweep of the 800 and 1,5000 meters at the outdoor meet, indoor and outdoor victories by combined event stars Ashton Eaton and Theisen, and the first-ever indoor and outdoor NCAA titles for the women’s 4x400 meter relay team.

The 2009-10 campaign also produced an unprecedented fourth straight Pac-10 title for the men, and a performance for the ages at the league meet for the women. The men counted wins by Eaton (decathlon, 110 hurdles, long jump), Wheating (800), Centrowitz (1,500) and Cyrus Hostetler (javelin) to hold off a game USC squad. The women won every running event aside from the two hurdles and the 4x400 meter relay with Nicole Blood doubling up in the 5,000 and 10,000, Purvis sweeping the 100 and 200, Keshia Baker taking the 400, Kesselring winning the 1,500 and Claire Michel capturing Oregon’s first 3,000 meter steeplechase title. Oregon also won the 4x100 meter relay, the long jump (Jamesha Youngblood), triple jump (Youngblood) and the heptathlon (Theisen) as the women scored a meet record 215 points.

During the 2008-09 academic year, the Men and Women of Oregon wrote one of the most memorable chapters in the history of all collegiate track and field. Both programs were honored as the USTFCCCA’s national programs of the year.

The Men of Oregon won their second straight NCAA Cross Country Championship, captured their first-ever NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championship and tied for second at the NCAA Outdoor meet, coming up just two points shy of a magical triple crown. Along the way, the men won their third straight Pac-10 titles in both track and cross country, and produced nine NCAA event champions, six Pac-10 individual champions and 23 All-America awards.

For the sixth time in his career, Lananna was named NCAA Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year.

USA Team Assistant Coach 1999 IAAF World Track and Field Championships 2004 Olympic Games Co-Chair 2008 & 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Trials 2009 & 2011 USA Track & Field Championships

Lananna also presided over perhaps the best individual season in the history of men’s collegiate distance running. Galen Rupp became the first person ever to win six distance races during the same academic year. Rupp was the 2008 NCAA individual cross country champion, the 2009 NCAA Indoor 3,000 and 5,000 meter champion, the 2009 NCAA Outdoor 5,000 and 10,000 meter champion, and anchored Oregon’s winning Indoor distance medley relay team. He was also the Pac-10 cross country medalist and won the league’s 10,000 meter title and capped his collegiate career by winning the title at the USA Track and Field Championships at Historic Hayward Field. He was named the USTFCCCA Division I and Pac-10 men’s track athlete of the year and was also honored as the NCAA Division I Academic All-American of the Year for all sports.

The women’s story was just as impressive. The Ducks placed second at the 2008 NCAA Cross Country Championships for the second year in a row, tied for ninth at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships, and then posted their best finish in a quarter century at the NCAA Outdoor Championships by capturing the silver trophy. The women also won their first Pac-10 track title in 17 years and took second again in cross country. Oregon boasted a pair of NCAA individual champions, seven Pac-10 event champions and 21 All-America awards.

The 2008-09 season came on the heels of a banner year for Oregon with the wildly successful Eugene 08 Olympic Trials following the tremendous growth of both the men’s and women’s programs during the spring outdoor season.

Hosting the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team Trials was a giant leap forward in Lananna’s grand plan for Track Town, USA, as a pair of UO student-athletes qualified for the 2008 Summer Olympics, Wheating in the men’s 800 meters and Rupp in the 10,000. However, it served only as a benchmark for the ambitious visionary who has recaptured the glory of Oregon’s proud running tradition both in terms of the teams’ performance on the track, as well as his leadership in the running community of Eugene.

The 2007-08 season marked an ascension back to the top of the collegiate running world for both programs.

The men won the NCAA championship in cross country and took Pac-10 team titles in both the track & field and cross country seasons. The women’s program continued its resurgence as well, with runner-up finishes at both the NCAA and Pac-10 Championships in cross country, and a third-place showing at the Pac-10 meet on the track. Lananna was recognized as the NCAA Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year. The two programs combined for 11 All-America honors at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships.

The 2006-07 season exemplified Lananna’s ability to extend the reputation of the University of Oregon, Hayward Field and Eugene as the nation’s most vibrant setting for collegiate track and field. On the track, the Ducks celebrated a Pac-10 men’s team crown as UO individuals combined for five victories. The Duck women added two Pac-10 individual track and field titles and collected five All-America honors to go along with seven combined men’s indoor and outdoor honors.

Just a few months after his arrival in July 2005, Lananna’s leadership helped the University of Oregon and the City of Eugene win the right to host the 2008 U.S. Olympic Track and Field Team Trials, something the University again won the right to do in 2012. During the 2006 indoor and outdoor seasons, Oregon men and women claimed three individual NCAA championships and 25 All-America awards. In July 2006, a two-year renovation began to prepare Historic Hayward Field to host the most exciting meets in the country.

Lananna has also led the establishment of a new post-collegiate club, the Oregon Track Club Elite, that provides a new opportunity for American middle distance/distance athletes to train with the goal of being competitive on the world stage. Three members of OTC Elite, Nick Symmonds, Christian Smith and Nicole Teter, made the 2008 Olympics.

Vin Lananna Has Guided Athletes to:

Lananna is experienced as both an administrator and a coach at the highest levels. Prior to his arrival at Oregon, Lananna served as athletic director at Oberlin College in Ohio. At the internationally-renowned liberal arts institution, he led the revitalization and reorganization of the department of athletics and physical education. His efforts to improve fundraising and enhance the department’s resources allowed Oberlin to increase staffing and upgrade facilities, including the construction of a new stadium for soccer, lacrosse, and track and field.

Five Olympic Teams 800 Meters (2008) 1,500 Meters (2000, 2004) 5,000 Meters (2000) 10,000 Meters (2008) Marathon (1992, 1996)

Renowned for his ability to develop talent, Lananna’s reputation as an exceptional coach was secured during his tenure as director of track and field at Stanford University from 1992 to 2003. In his time at Stanford, Lananna built one of the nation’s elite programs. His cross country and track and field teams claimed five NCAA team championships, 35 top-10 NCAA finishes, and 22 NCAA individual titles. The Cardinal men and women also won 17 Pacific-10 Conference team titles and 45 individual conference crowns in addition to 15 West Regional cross country championships. His athletes excelled in national and international competition, representing Team USA at the Olympic Games and the IAAF World Championships.

At Stanford, Lananna received three NCAA Coach of the Year cross country honors, nine NCAA West Region Cross Country Coach of the Year awards, 10 Pacific-10 Cross Country Coach of the Year honors, and two Pacific-10 Track and Field Coach of the Year awards. He also served on the NCAA Track and Field Committee from 2001-03. In 2004, Lananna traveled to Greece as an assistant coach for Team USA at the Olympic Games in Athens. He has also served as an assistant coach at the 1999 Track and Field World Championships and as head coach in the 1990 and 1996 World Championships and 1994 World Junior Championships in cross country.

Lananna’s leadership and vision for the future of track and field positioned Stanford as a destination for elite collegiate and post-collegiate competition. Athletes from across the country came to “The Farm” to participate in high performance invitationals designed to optimize athletic performance. His commitment to advancing the sport also led to the creation of a post-collegiate club team based at Stanford, and the University hosted the 2002 and 2003 USA Outdoor Championships and an annual IAAF Grand Prix meet.

Lananna arrived at Stanford after serving as assistant athletic director and head coach for cross country and track and field at Dartmouth College in Hanover, N.H. From 1980 until 1992, his men’s and women’s cross country teams posted a combined seven NCAA top20 finishes—including men’s runner-up efforts in 1986 and 1987—and 37 combined All-America cross country and track and field awards. The men’s team won 13 Heptagonal League titles and the women had six runner-up finishes. In recognition of the teams’ accomplishments, he was named the 1986 NCAA Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year and was a seven- time New England Region Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year and a four-time New England Track and Field Coach of the Year.

His coaching career began in 1975 when Lananna was named head coach of cross country at his alma mater, C.W. Post in Greenvale, NY. As an athlete (1971-75), he ran cross country and track and field and was captain of the 1974 team that finished fourth in the NCAA Division II Championships. He received his master’s of arts degree from Long Island University in 1989.

Lananna and his wife, Elizabeth, reside in Eugene, Oregon. Their sons Brian and Scott are graduates of Dartmouth College.

Robert Johnson Promoted to associate head women’s track and field coach in the spring of 2010, Robert Johnson is in his seventh year at Oregon. In addition to overseeing the women’s program, he continues to work with Oregon’s the men’s and women’s sprinters, relay teams, long jumpers, triple jumpers and women’s hurdlers.

After working in concert with Associate Athletic Director Vin Lananna to guide the Women of Oregon to their second consecutive NCAA Indoor national title in 2011, Johnson was named the national women’s coach of the year by the USTFCCCA. He was previously honored as the USTFCCCA’s national women’s assistant coach of the year outdoors in 2009 and indoors in 2010, and has led a group that has broken nearly every women’s sprint, relay and horizontal jump record during his tenure.

The 2011 season saw the emergence of Pac-10 Women’s Freshman of the Year English Gardner, who set U.S. Junior, Pac-10 meet and school records when she timed 11.03 in winning the Pac-10 100 meter title. She broke the American record held by Angela Williams of USC and the Pac-10 mark held by Gail Devers. Duck women also captured league title at in the 4x400 meter relay. At the 2011 NCAA Outdoor Championships, the 4x400 meter relay team of Michele Williams, Chizoba Okodogbe, Phyllis Francis and Laura Roesler broke the school record with a time of 3:28.18, while Gardner became the first Duck to score in the 100 meters (seventh). For men, quarter-miler Mike Berry was one of the many highlights. He won the Pac-10 title in a school-record 44.91 before going on to finish third at the NCAA Outdoor Championships and fifth at the USA Championships.

During the 2010 season, women’s school records fell in the 200 and 400 meters, both relays and the long and triple jumps. Oregon scored a meet-record 215 points at the 2010 Pac-10 Championships, with victories at 100 and 200 meters by Amber Purvis, the long jump and the triple jump by Jamesha Youngblood and the 400 meters by Keshia Baker, her third straight win. The Ducks also captured the 4x100 meter relay. That led to a runner-up finish at the 2010 NCAA Championships, where Baker and Purvis led Oregon to its first-ever NCAA 4x400 meter relay title in a then-school record 3:28.54. The Ducks also counted a third-place finish in the 4x100 meter relay, a fourth-place showing from Baker in the 400 meters and a fourth-place finish by Youngblood in the long jump. Mandy White took 10th in the 100 meters to become the University’s first-ever All-American in the event. Johnson was named the 2010 USTFCCCA West Region Women’s Assistant Coach of the Year.

Indoors, 2010 was even better as the Ducks captured their first women’s NCAA Indoor Track & Field national title. Oregon punctuated its victory by winning the 4x400 meter relay for the first time in school history. The Ducks also counted a runner-up finish by Baker in the 400, a third-place finish from the distance medley relay team and a fourth-place showing from Purvis in the 200. Indoor UO record marks came at 60, 200 and 400 meters, in both relays and the long jump.

The 2009 team, led by Pac-10 champions and All-Americans Baker and Youngblood, broke 12 indoor and outdoor school records in the sprints, relays and vertical jumps and captured three Pac-10 individual titles along the way.

Baker won her second consecutive Pac-10 title at 400 meters and finished fifth at the NCAA Championships.

Youngblood became the first Duck to sweep the long jump and triple jump competition at the league championships, and set school records in both events. Both were also indoor All-Americans.

The 2009 season also saw the emergence of Purvis as a dynamic freshman sprinter who shattered school records in the 100 and 200 meters, as well as the indoor 60 and 200 meters. Three of the women’s four relay marks also fell.

The men’s horizontal jumps have also taken a step forward under Johnson with Vernell Warren scoring in both the long jump and high jump at the Pac-10 Championships and qualifying for two consecutive NCAA Championships in recent seasons, while Brian Schaudt eneterd the top-10 in the triple jump in 2011.

In 2008, Johnson, himself a two-time All-American triple jumper, helped launch Youngblood’s career as she set the school’s indoor long jump record and recorded the second-best outdoor triple jump and No. 3 long jump in school history. Johnson also coached Baker to the 2008 Pac-10 400 meter title, becoming the first Duck to win that event since Camara Jones in 1995. During the 2007 winter season, Lauryn Jordan scored All-America honors in UO’s first ever NCAA indoor long jump appearance after raising the indoor school record three times during the season.

Before his work with Oregon, Johnson oversaw UCLA’s highly-regarded high jump, long jump and triple jump units, and also coordinated its strength and conditioning program. In that short span, his Bruin men and women combined for one NCAA title, one U.S. runner-up finish, two Pac-10 titles, and eight All-America honors. His star pupils included collegiate triple jump record holder Candice Baucham — the 2005 NCAA outdoor champion and U.S. runner-up.

Bruin student-athletes under his guidance shined on the national level in 2005, and were paced by Baucham who led the U.S. outdoor list in the triple jump with her winning mark and school record from the NCAA Championships (46-2).

That mark established an American NCAA meet record and also moved her to third all-time in American history. In the collegiate finale, the Bruin senior also had an All-American effort in the long jump (fifth). In his first season in Westwood in 2004, Juaune Armon posted All-America long jump honors both outdoors (fifth) and indoors (fourth). Ranked fifth all-time for the Bruins with a best of 26-3, he also placed eighth in the Olympic Trials and was the Pac-10 Champion.

As an Appalachian State assistant coach from 1997-2003, Johnson coached 28 individual Southern Conference champions and 14 NCAA qualifiers in the long jump, triple jump, 55 meters and 100 meters. He mentored the school’s first All-America jumper—Ronda White—an outdoor triple jump All-American in 2003, along with two Southern Conference Freshmen of the Year and two Southern Conference Athletes of the Year.

As an athlete, Johnson also competed for Appalachian State, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree in 1996, and was a two-time triple jump All-American (1995, ’96), NCAA high jump qualifier (1996) and school high jump record holder (7-1 3/4). He capped his career as the 1996 Southern Conference triple jump and high jump champion, and was named the Southern Conference Outdoor Track and Field Athlete of the Year after he piled up All-Southern Conference honors in the long jump, triple jump, high jump, 200 meters and 4x100 meter relay. As a post-collegian, he notched top-10 USA Outdoor Championships triple jump finishes in 1998, ’99 and ’00, and competed in the 1996 and 2000 Olympic Trials.

He is married to Oregon volunteer assistant coach Jackie Johnson..

The 2011 season saw Matthew Centrowitz win both the NCAA Outdoor and USA Championships title at 1,500 meters and also saw All-American performances from Elijah Greer (800 meters), Luke Puskedra (10,000 meters), Steve Finley (3,000 meter steeplechase) and A.J. Acosta (1,500 meters). Centrwitz also captured his third straight Pac-10 title at 1,500 meters, while Finley took the steeplechase crown. In the fall, Puskedra was the third place finisher at the NCAA Cross Country Championships.

In 2010, Powell and Lananna helped guide Andrew Wheating’s remarkable double at the NCAA Championships, where the 2008 Olympian became the first man in 25 years to win both the 800 and 1,500 meters. Wheating also anchored the Ducks’ indoor distance medley relay national title, and was also part of Oregon’s dramatic 1-2-3 sweep in the NCAA Outdoor 1,500 meters. Wheating captured his third straight Pac-10 800 title, while Centrowitz took his second consecutive league 1,500 meter title as the Ducks won an unprecedented fourth straight league championship.

A year earlier, Powell played an important role in mentoring perhaps the best individual season in the history of men’s collegiate distance running. Galen Rupp became the first person ever to win six distance races during the same academic year. Rupp was the 2008 NCAA individual cross country champion, the 2009 NCAA Indoor 3,000 and 5,000 meter champion, the 2009 NCAA Outdoor 5,000 and 10,000 meter champion, and anchored Oregon’s winning Indoor distance medley relay team. He was also the Pac-10 cross country medalist and won the league’s 10,000 meter title and capped his collegiate career by winning the title at the USA Track and Field Championships at Historic Hayward Field. He was named the USTFCCCA and Pac-10 Division I men’s track athlete of the year and was also honored as the NCAA Division I Academic All-American of the Year for all sports.

On the track, the Oregon men continued to amass honors on the individual and team fronts. Wheating won his NCAA first title at 800 meters in 2009 to go along with Rupp’s six distance wins, while the distance crew counted Pac-10 wins from Wheating (800), Rupp (10,000), Chris Winter (Steeplechase) and a 1-2-3 sweep in the 1,500 meters led by Centrowitz, Rupp and Wheating. In all the distance runners tallied 79 points towards Oregon’s school-record 158 point total and third straight Pac-10 crown.

The 2009 season also saw Oregon garner All-America honors at 800, 5,000 and 10,000 meters outdoors, and in the indoor 800 meters, mile, 3,000 meters, 5,000 meters and distance medley relay. Rupp set the American indoor record at 5,000 meters (13:18.12) and the American indoor collegiate record at 3,000 meters (7:44.69) as the team men broke every school indoor mark between 800 and 5,000 meters, plus the distance medley record. Not surprisingly, Oregon was named the USTFCCCA’s Division I program of the year for 2009.

The year before served as a precursor to the remarkable 2008-09 season. Wheating won 11 consecutive races before finishing second by .01 in the men’s 800 meters final of the most exciting race of the entire 2008 NCAA Track and Field Championships. Rupp meanwhile finished second in the 10,000 meters at the U.S. Olympic Trials to qualify for his first Olympic Games. Prior to that, the men’s distance department accounted for 71 of the Ducks’ 144.5 points in winning the 2008 Pac-10 crown.

In 2007, Rupp earned a World Championships 10,000 meters invitation after he placed second in the USA and NCAA Championships — an event he raced to an American collegiate record during the season (27:33.48).

Postseason success is nothing new to Powell who served as a volunteer coach at Columbia University during the 2004-05 season and worked with distance coach and director of track and field Willie Wood.

While Powell was at Columbia, Karl Dusen improved his personal best by more than a minute in the 10,000 meters en route to a school record (29:00.45) and later placed 21st in his NCAA debut. In the 1,500 meters, Gerry Groothuis ran a school record during the season (3:44.01), and was a 5,000 meter regional qualifier (14:10.68) and Ivy League runner-up.

As a Stanford athlete, Powell stood out as one of the nation’s top middle distance runners. He still ranks among the school’s all-time best in the 1,500 meters (3:40.65) and just missed an Olympic Trials bid with the nation’s top freshman mark that season. That same campaign, he competed on the Cardinal’s NCAA champion track and field squad and added eighth in the Pac-10 Championships 5,000 meters (14:18.75) as Stanford took second as a team. In cross country, he ran on the Cardinal team that finished fourth in the NCAA Championships in 2000 and won the Pac-10 title.

As a prep at Oliver Ames High School in North Easton, Mass., near Boston, he won U.S. junior titles as a senior in the 1,500 meters (3:49.81) and 5,000 meters (14:51.81) after he ran a state mile record of 4:02.7.

The Foot Locker Cross Country qualifier also won titles as a high school athlete in the Pan American Junior Championships, Golden West Invitational, and Millrose Games.

His wife Maurica Powell is a volunteer assistant coach for the Ducks and was a decorated Stanford middle distance runner and All-American. The couple has two sons.

Jenni Ashcroft Jenni Ashcroft was promoted to assistant coach in the summer of 2010 following four years of exceptional commitment as a volunteer assistant for the Ducks.

Now in her sixth season overall with Oregon, Ashcroft works with the women’s middle distance runners, pole vaulters and high jumpers, in addition to her duties with the cross country team.

Working in concert with Vin Lananna, Ashcroft helped Jordan Hasay win the Pac-10 cross country title and finish third at the NCAA Championships in 2010. Hasay’s NCAA finish was the best by a Duck in 19 years.

Hasay also won the NCAA West Regional. Both Hasay and Alexandra Kosinski, who was 19th at the NCAA meet, earned All-America honors for cross country in 2010.

The following spring on the track, Anne Kesselring won the NCAA title at 800 meters, while Hasay was an All-American in both the 1,500 and 5,000 meters. At the 2011 Pac-10 Championships, Oregon went 1-3-4-6 in the 1,500 meters, with Hasay taking the crown, followed by Kesselring (third), Becca Friday (fourth) and Megan Patrignelli (sixth). Friday would also go on to post All-America honors at the NCAA Championships.

The 2011 NCAA meet also saw Ashcroft mentor a national champion in pole vaulter Melissa Gergel. The senior won the 2011 Outdor crown by clearing 14-7.25/4.45m, and then matched that bar again at the USA Championships where she took fourth. Her height was the second-best in school history.

The 2011 indoor season was again tremendously successful for the Ducks, who won their second straight national title with Hasay capturing both the mile and 3,000 meters. She led Oregon’s 1-3-4 finish in the mile as well as its runner-up finish in the distance medley relay. Gergel had another strong indoor performance in the pole vault with a fourth-place finish.

Ashcroft was instrumental in the development of Gergel, a seven-time All-American, as well as NCAA Championships qualifiers Colin Witter-Tilton and Jordan Roskelley. Pole vaulters have contributed to each of Oregon’s back-to-back-to-back women’s Pac-10 champions, including Gergel’s Pac-10 title in 2009.

Gergel followed that up with a runner-up finish at the 2010 NCAA Indoor Championships, as she set the UO indoor record at 14-7.25.Ashcroft has also previously assisted with the men’s and women’s high jumpers, hurdlers and the combined events.

The former All-America pole vaulter spent four seasons (2003-06) on the Wichita State coaching staff, first as a graduate assistant and then as an assistant coach. Over that span, athletes in the pole vault, long jump and triple jump scored six Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) titles, earned 26 all-conference selections and 17 regional invitations, set 11 school records and seven MVC records, made four NCAA appearances, and received one All-America plaque.

The Shocker squads also claimed two men’s outdoor team titles and four women’s team victories. Her pupils included All-America and conference champion pole vaulter Jackie Brown, an indoor and outdoor school record holder, and two other conference victors, Brooke Demo (pole vault) and Jelena Petrovic (long jump).

Petrovic also scored an outdoor long jump school record (20-8) and NCAA invitations indoors and outdoors.

As an athlete, the former University of Nevada pole vaulter earned All-America honors at the 2002 NCAA Outdoor Championships. She was also a pole vault conference champion in the Big West (2000) and WAC Conferences, a 2000 Olympic Trials qualifier, and the state of Nevada NCAA Woman of the Year.

Ashcroft graduated from Nevada in 2002 with a degree in secondary education, and added a master’s in sports administration at Wichita State in 2005. The Sheridan High School (Ore.) product was a state pole vault champion and 2A state meet record holder.

Robert Weir Three-time Olympian Robert Weir joined the University of Oregon staff in Auguast 2010. Weir oversees the five men’s and women’s throws: the shot put, discus, hammer, javelin and indoor weight throw.

In his first season at Oregon in 2011, he tutored men’s NCAA qualifiers Jordan Stray in the hammer and Alex Wolff in the javelin and women’s NCAA West Preliminary qualifier Laura Bobek in the discus. Stray also played an important role in Oregon’s fifth consecutive Pac-10 title with his third place showing in the hammer.

Weir has accumulated a remarkable record as both a competitor and a coach.

On the international level, Weir was the throws coach for Team USA at both the 2007 IAAF World Championships in Osaka, Japan, and the 2005 IAAF World Championships in Helsinki, Finland. He was also the U.S. head men’s coach at the 2006 World Junior Championships in Beijing, and in 2009, served as the national shot put, discus and hammer coach for Great Britain.

Assistant Coach 2nd Year

As a competitor, he is a 12-time Great Britain national champion in the discus and a member of that country’s World Championship Team. He also competed in the 1984, 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics.

At the Sydney Games in 2000, Weir was named captain of the Great Britain track and field team. Weir’s additional international experience includes six IAAF World Championships, and he won four medals as a Commonwealth Games competitor in 1982, 1994, 1998 and 2002.

As a collegiate coach, in addition to the numerous All-Americans coached by Weir during his 16 years as an assistant and head coach at Stanford (1993-2008), he guided Adam Nelson to the 2000 U.S. national title and an Olympic Silver Medal in the shot put. He also coached Michael Robertson to the 2005 NCAA title in the discus with a Stanford school record throw of 202-5 (61.70m). Robertson became the first Stanford athlete in 40 years to win the discus at the NCAA Championship.

Weir was named the NCAA West Regional Men’s Assistant Coach of the Year in 2001. Additionally, Stanford’s men’s track and field team won Pac-10 crowns in 2001 and 2002, the school’s first titles since 1927. Weir first joined the Stanford staff in 1993 as a part-time assistant coach, before becoming an assistant coach in 1994, associate coach in 1997 and associate head coach in 2001. He was then promoted to Stanford’s men’s head coach in 2004.

Some of Weir’s other proteges at Stanford include seven-time All-American Jillian Camarena, who was the 2004 runner-up in the shot put at the NCAA Indoor Championships and went on to win the Pac-10 title and finish third at the U.S. Olympic Trials that season. Camarena set a school record in the shot put with a throw of 59-6.75 (18.15m), the second farthest throw in Pac-10 history.

In 2001, Maureen Onyeagbako broke the school record in the women’s hammer, only to have Jessica Pluth erase that mark a year later. Then came Sarah Hopping, who in 2006 crushed the school record by over four feet (219-8/66.95m).

In 2000, Summer Pierson, a participant at the 2004 U.S. Olympic Trials, gained All-America honors in the discus. A year earlier, Allison Beatty broke the javelin school record and later that season gained AllAmerica honors at the NCAA Championships.

On the men’s side, Omer Inan was named an All-American in the men’s discus from 2001-03. Under Weir’s guidance, Inan broke the school record in the discus in 2002, and Chad Wassink broke the javelin school record in 2001.

From 1995-2000, Weir successfully coached several of the nation’s top U.S. collegiate men’s hammer throwers at Stanford. The list includes Dave Popejoy, a 1996 United States Olympian and current school record holder (240-10/73.40m), Justin Strand, a former Stanford football player who later became a threetime All-American hammer thrower (1996-98) and Adam Connolly, who in 1998, finished as an AllAmerican in both the indoor 35-pound weight throw and the hammer.

Prior to his stint at Stanford, Weir was an assistant coach at Brown from 1985-88.

Weir, a native of Birmingham, England, received his undergraduate degree from Southern Methodist in 1985. While with the Mustangs, he won three NCAA individual titles. The 10-time All-American set the collegiate record in the hammer throw and the world record in the indoor 35-pound weight throw while at SMU. His personal best discus throw, 213-6/65.08m, came in August of 2000 in Bedford, England. That was the fifth-best all-time among English discus throwers.

Weir also played professional football in the Canadian Football League for six seasons between 1986 and 1992 and competed in the 1997 World’s Strongest Man competition.

Jim Radcliffe One of the most overlooked elements in the success of Oregon’s student-athletes is Jim Radcliffe, who is in the midst of his 24th year as the school’s head strength and conditioning coach. He not only plays a significant role in the Ducks’ program as the designer of the year-round conditioning calendar but also has been quick to aid the athletic development of athletes in all sports.

Radcliffe furnishes the student-athletes with a wide variety of exercise through weight training and lifting systems, and is a noted authority in the field of exercises dealing with the improvement of speed and quickness.

HISTORIC HAYWARD FIELD

Phil Knight Oregon Track ’57, ’58, ’59 “People often ask me how good of a runner he really was,” said Jim Grelle, the best American collegiate miler from 1957-59, of his Oregon teammate Phil Knight. “And I always tell them, ‘he sure was, he lettered at Oregon three years in a row,’ which, if you know anything about the history of running at Oregon, should be more than sufficient to answer the question.”

Grelle, Knight, Bill Dellinger and Jim Bailey composed the core of Oregon’s impressive mile and half-mile runners in the late 1950s, one of the golden eras for the Men of Oregon. Under the tutelage of legendary coach Bill Bowerman, Grelle would win the 1959 NCAA and Pacific Coast Conference championships in the mile, after finishing second in 1957 and ’58.

“Phil was always quiet about what he was doing, but he was also such a competitor; he still is,” said Grelle, a three-time All-American in the mile. “He always ran well and got better all three years.”

Knight helped Oregon defeat Washington State by winning the mile in their 1958 dual meet. In fact, Knight and his teammates went undefeated in duals, 14-0, during his career at Oregon. In all, Knight recorded 13 top-three finishes in the mile during his Oregon career.

The man who would later become the Co-Founder of Nike, was also an important member of the Ducks’ relay teams. He ran the third leg for the squad that captured the 1958 Northern Division distance medley relay championship. As a senior in 1959, he first helped the Ducks capture another Northern Division crown in the two-mile relay, and then ran the lead leg for the distance medley team that won the race at the 1959 Drake Relays in a then meet-record time.

Two Men and a Handshake Following his running career at Oregon, Knight became inspired by the notion that quality athletic shoes might be found in Japan for much less than the expensive German products, which were the only athletic shoes available to American runners at the time.

Knight eventually received distribution rights for Japan’s Tiger running shoes. Though it took more than a year for him to receive the first Tiger sample shoes, he immediately sent two pairs to his former track coach, hoping to make a sale and to gain the potentially powerful endorsement of Bowerman. He got much more.

Bowerman, a shoe designer himself, wrote back to Knight that they should become partners. Knight would run the business, while Bowerman would provide design ideas. They shook hands on January 25, 1964, and Blue Ribbon Sports (BRS) was born.

By 1966, the early version of what would become the iconic Bowerman-designed Cortez running shoe had taken shape. Other shoe models would follow, and BRS’s territory until it was the exclusive national distributor for Tiger’s running shoe business.

“I came back and sold shoes for Blue Ribbon Sports in 1965,” said Grelle, who ran 21 sub-4:00 miles during his career. “I was really impressed with Phil’s company and his drive to make it a success. I think how he learned to compete in races was exactly like how he had learned to compete in life.”

In 1971, Knight asked Carolyn Davidson, a graphic arts student at Portland State University, to draw up a few potential brand marks. Ultimately, he selected a crescent-shaped mark that today is one of the world’s most recognized brands, the “Swoosh.”

Jeff Johnson, the first full-time employee Knight had hired, awoke one morning with an inspiration for the name of the new company—“Nike” goddess of victory in Greek mythology.

By February 1972, BRS had prepared an entire line of shoes under the Nike name, including a Nike Cortez, Bruin, Blazer and Boston. At the same time, Bowerman had been working on a new rubber sole pattern inspired by the family waffle iron.

At the 1972 U.S. Olympic Track & Field Trials in Eugene, runners got their first glimpse of the new “Waffle” sole. And the rest, as they say…. (portions adapted from text provided courtesy of Scott Reames, Nike Historian)

HISTORIC HAYWARD FIELD

A Legend Reborn At the heart of Eugene’s successful bids for the 2008 and 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Trials, Historic Hayward Field is the nation’s most impressive track and field venue. And there is no place on earth like TrackTown USA. The 2008 Trials were an unmitigated success that could have only happened here; the magical performances, the heart-stopping moments, the records, the drama, the joy, the tears. All of which played out for the nation to watch before the most appreciative home to track and field in the world.

The 2008 Trials marked only the beginning of the legendary venue’s rebirth. The Olympic Trials return again to TrackTown in 2012, and the inaugural Pac-12 Track & Field Championships will be hosted at Hayward Field. In the coming years, TrackTown USA will be the epicenter of the nation’s most prestigious championship meets. The NCAA Championships will return to Eugene for the 2013 and 2014 events, while the IAAF World Junior Championships will be held at Hayward Field in 2013, a first on U.S. soil.

In 2011, the USA Track & Field Championships were contested at Hayward Field for the second time in three years. In 2010, Track Town, USA welcomed the NCAA Championships for the 10th time since 1962—the most of any venue in modern history.

The University of Oregon’s Hayward Field, one of the most famous track and field facilities in the world, is named for Bill Hayward, who coached the University of Oregon’s men’s team from 1904-1947.

Hayward Field was initially constructed for football in 1919. Two years later, a six-lane cinder track was installed and track events were transferred from Kincaid Field on the opposite edge of campus. The facility was utilized for both sports until the opening of Autzen Stadium in 1967.

The stadium has undergone significant improvements in modern history; in 2008 a new track surface, stadium lights, a remarkable video board and newly configured infield were unveiled.

The birth of track and field on the University of Oregon campus dates back to 1895. The student body (then numbering 353) built a quarter-mile dirt track at Kincaid Field, now the site of 13th Avenue and Kincaid Street, to practice for their annual field day, held in conjunction with commencement exercises. In 1900, the Ducks started competing in dual meets against regional universities and opponents and sported a 13-3 record in their first nine years—including an

HISTORIC HAYWARD FIELD

As innovative and spectacular as the 2008 Olympic Trials were, they are just the beginning for Hayward Field, which will host the 2013 and 2014 NCAA Championships, the 2011 USA Track & Field Championships and the 2012 Olympic Trials.

The traditional “Victory Lap” undefeated stretch from 1906–09. The first upgrade to the Kincaid track came in 1904 when it was covered partially to facilitate inclement-weather practice and competition. By 1912 the sport had started to outgrow the facility, and the university started to explore other possibilities.

Although collegiate sports went on hiatus temporarily in 1917 because of the first World War, a full schedule of meets returned in 1919 – the same year Hayward Field was built for football. Two years later, a six-lane cinder track bordering the football playing field was installed for $10,000, including a 220-yard straightway on the east end of the track. Bleachers were transferred from Kincaid Field, and in 1925, the wooden east grandstand was added. In 1928, the students paid to cover the bleachers on the north end that remained until 1950.

With the construction of Autzen Stadium for football in 1967, Hayward Field became a trackonly venue. One of the stadium’s most famous former features was its south end bleachers that obscured nearly a quarter of the track. Oregon runners and eventual Olympians Otis Davis and Wade Bell were famed for trailing the field as they disappeared behind the bleachers, only to soon emerge into daylight with a commanding lead. The cinder track lasted until 1970 when the facility received its first all-weather surface. Five years later, the west grandstands were completely rebuilt to their current layout.

The University of Oregon continues to update the classic facility as it looks to remain the nation’s preeminent track and field venue. In addition to the multi-million dollar renovation completed in preparation of the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team Trials, Historic Hayward Field has received additional improvements in the past two decades to further its reputation as a highperformance facility.

The most eye-catching upgrade is the new video scoreboard, which displays high-definition video for instant replays and post-competition interviews with athletes and coaches. It can also display results and video simultaneously, which has tremendously increased the level of enjoyment experienced by the Hayward Field faithful.

Together the meets offer the opportunity to transform the sport of track and field by elevating the experience for athletes, coaches, the media, and spectators.

This exciting vision has been made possible through the generous support of individuals committed to celebrating the legendary past and bold future of historic Hayward Field. The University of Oregon is grateful to them for their leadership role in this effort and for fueling the flame of Track Town, USA.

HISTORIC HAYWARD FIELD Continued from p. 161 former coach and athlete Bill Dellinger. The facility also welcomed a new four-lane, fully-lit 400-meter all-weather track that encircles six new tennis courts on the southwest edge of the track.

A complete face-lift of the indoor practice area under the west grandstands was finished in the spring of 2006, and included a new urethane-coated competition surface, jump runways and pits, and several throwing rings. A pair of state-of-the-art underwater and anti-gravity treadmills were also installed to facilitate Oregon’s national-class athletic treatment facilities.

The Bowerman Building was completed in 1992 and dedicated to Bill Bowerman and his family who donated funds necessary to construct the all-purpose building. The building houses an athletic treatment center, locker rooms and meeting rooms. Memorabilia and various exhibits commemorate great athletes, teams and moments of the program’s history.

One of the biggest renovations to date came prior to the 1988 NCAA Championships with a two-year project to convert the track from a 440-yard dimension to a 400-meter oval with 85meter straightaways. To accommodate the size changes, the east grandstands were moved back to the east approximately 11 meters (or 35 feet, 9 1/2 inches).

Underwater Treadmill

The Pacific Northwest’s first indoor all-sport training facility, the Ed Moshofsky Center, is also available for all-weather conditioning. Runners, jumpers and throwers can train in the climatecontrolled, spacious environment on both sprint lanes and soft surfaces.

Off the track, the Ducks’ nationally-renowned strength and conditioning program offers studentathletes a one-of-a-kind combination of coaches, venues and event-specific training programs.

In 2007, a dynamic expansion of the University’s athletic treatment facilities was completed.

The updated center offers 12,000 square feet of treatment and rehabilitative space, including state-of-the-art hydrotherapy amenities such as three Hydroworx underwater treadmills and three oversized hot and cold plunge pools.

The space also includes comprehensive physician services, including a digital X-ray center and a fully equipped treatment area with top of the line therapeutic equipment and cardio stations to aid in efficient and prompt recovery.

Student-athletes can also utilize an amazing new nutrition resource center for consultation and nutritional supplements.

COACHING LEGENDS

Bill Hayward The father of Oregon track and field and its famous track and field facility, Bill Hayward was appropriately known as the ‘Grand Old Man’ during his 44-year career as a Duck coach.

Born in Detroit, Mich., July 2, 1868, and raised in Toronto, Ont., he was known throughout both countries as an all-around star athlete comparable to the likes of Jim Thorpe.

A member of the Ottawa Capitals world champion lacrosse team, he also was one of Canada’s fastest sprinters from 75 up to 600 yards. He was equally regarded as a national-class athlete in ice hockey, rowing, wrestling and boxing.

The colorful yet cultured sportsman began his coaching career in 1898 as a Princeton assistant coach, then made another assistant stop at California.

He next served as the head track and field coach at Pacific University (1901) and Albany College (1903), and his Albany track team even beat the Webfoots. He took the Oregon head track job in 1904, and also served as athletic trainer and basketball coach.

He coached four track world record holders, six American record holders and nine Olympians, and assisted on U.S. Olympic teams from 1908-1932.

Among his pupils, Dan Kelly broke the world record in the 100 yards (9.6) in 1906; went on to set the 220-yard record (21.1); and took the silver medal in the broad jump in the 1908 Olympic Games.

COACHING LEGENDS

Bill Bowerman Bill Bowerman was a man of many titles—Olympic head coach, Nike founder, army major, Oregon track and field head coach, inventor…the list could go on and on. But the one recurring theme was his restless innovation and unchecked passion for sport.

Bowerman (born 2/19/11) began his coaching career as a football coach for one year at Franklin High School in Portland, then moved to Medford and coached track for nine years and football for seven years.

But the Duck football and track letterwinner made his biggest mark as a track coach as his ‘Track Men of Oregon’ won 24 NCAA individual titles (with wins in 15 of the 19 events contested) and four NCAA team crowns (1962-64-65-70), and posted 16 top-10 NCAA finishes in his 24 years as head coach. His teams also boasted 33 Olympians, 38 conference champions and 64 All-Americans. At the dual level, the Ducks posted a 114-20 record and went undefeated in 10 seasons. At the Olympic level, he served as head coach of the U.S. team in 1972 and an assistant coach in 1968.

Bowerman the inventor was equally renowned for his waffle-iron shoe soles still popular today, as well as his method of recycling old athletic shoes into surfacing for tracks.

His love of coaching carried past his own athletes as he helped launch the U.S. running boom. After a 1962 trip to New Zealand he introduced the idea of jogging to the local masses, and even assigned his Duck athletes as mentors and coaches to local citizens. His 1967 book Jogging sold more than a million copies.

Bowerman’s legacy as an outspoken leader was also forged off the track. He was a combat major of the 10th Mountain Ski Troops against the Germans in the Italian Alps in World War II (and earned the Bronze Star), then sparred in the ’70s with the Rajneeshees in Eastern Oregon. He even ran for state representative, following the lead of his father Jay who served as interim governor in 1910.

In retirement, Bowerman stayed true to his roots. The Fossil, Ore., native resided in his Eugene home in the Coburg Hills, and stayed in the news with occasional advice on how to keep the sport vibrant. When nominated for the National Track and Field Hall of Fame in 1981, he declined stating that until Bill Hayward was elected, he didn’t deserve to be included.

Before passing away on Christmas Eve, 1999, Bowerman returned to Fossil, the eastern Oregon town his great grandfather had founded in 1867, to close the last chapter of a legacy that will never be matched.

COACHING LEGENDS

Bill Dellinger Another Oregon original, Bill Dellinger proved the perfect choice to continue the storied Oregon legacy.

The Grants Pass, Ore., native (born 3/23/34) made his name initially as one of Oregon’s greatest distance runners. From 1953-56, he was a twotime NCAA winner, three-time All-American and three-time conference champion. After college, he balanced a stint in the Air Force with postcollegiate training. By the end of his running career, he had added two world indoor records, six American records and three Olympic appearances (including a bronze in the 5,000 in 1964).

Dellinger began his coaching career at Thurston High School, joined Lane Community College in 1967, then accepted the Oregon assistant coach position in 1968 and quickly established a reputation as one of America’s finest distance coaches.

No U.S. distance runner made a bigger impact than his first star, Steve Prefontaine, but the legacy didn’t stop there.

Mentoring such greats as Alberto Salazar, Rudy Chapa, Matt Centrowitz and Bill McChesney, Jr., his distance pupils broke 18 American records, made 17 Olympic appearances and won 12 NCAA individual track titles. In his 32 years as cross country head coach, the Ducks claimed four NCAA team titles, five runner-up honors and four third-place finishes, to go along with four individual titles and another runner-up finish.

As a team, the Ducks continued their reputation as one of the nation’s deepest and most balanced units. At home at Hayward Field in 1984, the Ducks added their fifth NCAA track title and tallied 113 points — the highest NCAA total ever. At the conference level, his squads claimed four team titles and nine runner-up finishes. Individually, 23 Oregon runners combined for 41 cross country All-America honors, and 58 track athletes accounted for 105 track and field honors.

Dellinger still lives in Eugene and has coached Olympic post-collegians Danny Lopez, Nick Rogers and Mary Slaney.

COACHING LEGENDS

Tom Heinonen A pioneer for three decades for the University of Oregon and NorPac and Pac-10 Conferences, former head coach Tom Heinonen helped guide the Duck women’s track and field team from its infancy into a full-fledged collegiate power in his 27 years as head coach.

He retired after the 2003 season and was honored in his career as a threetime NCAA Coach of the Year, and eight-time Pac-10 Conference Coach of the Year. As a team, UO scored top-10 NCAA track and field finishes in seven of the meet’s first eight years, and won the NCAA title in 1985. At the conference level, Oregon won all four of the NorPac track and field team crowns from 1982-85, then finished top-two eight times in the first 10 years of the Pac-10’s existence, including league victories in 1991 and ’92. During his tenure, Duck individuals stockpiled 15 NCAA/AIAW titles, 108 AllAmerica honors and 55 Pac-10/NorPac Conference titles in track and field.

His mark on the collegiate cross country scene is even more impressive.

Only one other team bettered Oregon’s 24 national trips in his 28 years at the helm, and Duck individuals qualified three of the other four years. Over that span, Heinonen guided teams to NCAA wins in 1983 and 1987, to go along with three more second-place efforts among their amazing total of 18, top-10 national finishes.

Duck individuals were equally decorated at the post-collegiate level, claiming three American records, 17 Olympic appearances, 10 World Championships invites, 12 U.S. national track and field titles, 22 World Championships cross country invites, and five U.S. cross country crowns.

As an athlete, Heinonen enjoyed an equally successful career as a six-time All-America distance runner at the University of Minnesota. During his postcollegiate career, he was a three-time World Cross Country Championships competitor, a two-time Olympic Trials Marathon veteran, and the 1969 AAU marathon champion.

IN MEMORIAM

Steve Prefontaine Steve Prefontaine was born in Coos Bay, Oregon on January 25, 1951. Although he was tragically involved in a fatal car accident in Eugene on May 30, 1975, his legacy lives on in the hearts and minds of countless track and field fans around the world.

Pre began his running career at Marshfield High School in Coos Bay, where he was coached

by Walter McClure, a former Oregon track star. He went undefeated in cross country and track as a junior and senior. As a senior, he broke the American record for two miles in the Corvallis Invitational with a time of 8:41.5. Bill Dellinger, then an Oregon assistant track and cross coach, first saw Pre run as a junior at the state cross country meet in November 1967 at the urging of McClure. Prefontaine signed with the University of Oregon on Tuesday, April 29, 1969.

Between the time he entered the University of Oregon in the fall of 1969 and when he graduated in the summer of 1973, Pre won seven NCAA titles—three in cross country (1970, 1971, 1973) and four in the three-mile in track (1970, 1971, 1972, and 1973)—becoming the first collegian to accomplish the feat in track and the second in cross country. He won Pac-8 Conference championships in the 3-mile in 1970, 1971, 1972, and 1973, in addition to the mile title in 1971.

In his first outdoor track race, he won the 2-mile in a triangular against Fresno State and Stanford in Fresno, Calif., on March 21, 1970. Later that first season, he clocked a 3:57.4 mile at the Oregon Twilight, finishing second and setting an Oregon freshman record.

Pre’s victories became legendary. His first NCAA 3-mile track title in 1970 came with a dozen stitches in his foot after being involved in a diving board accident just days before. His final cross country victory came after making up a 100-yard deficit on Western Kentucky’s English distance star Nick Rose. At the close of his collegiate career he had set eight collegiate track records. Altogether, Pre raced at Hayward Field in Eugene in 38 races between 1970-75, losing only three times and all at one mile.

He owned every (8) American record between 2,000 and 10,000 meters and between two miles and six miles. He also held eight collegiate records while at Oregon, with his three-mile (12:53.4) and six-mile (27:09.4) performances still standing. During his career, he broke his own or other American records 14 different times, broke the four-minute barrier nine times, ran 25 two-mile races under 8:40, and 10 5,000 meter races faster than 13:30.

He competed in the 1972 Summer Games in Munich, when he was 21 years old and two years younger than anyone else in the 5,000 meters field. Taking the lead with a mile to go, and holding it until less than 600 meters remaining, he ultimately finished fourth (13:28.25) behind Lasse Viren of Finland (first, 13:26.42), Mohamed Gammoudi of Tunisia (second, 13:27.33), and Ian Stewart of Great Britain (third, 13:27.61). Stewart passed Prefontaine less than 10 meters from the finish line for the last medal.

Today, Pre’s impact can be found in the Steve Prefontaine Memorial Jogging Trail, 6.3 kilometers of wood chip path that winds through Alton Baker Park in Eugene. His life has been the subject of several recent books, movies and videos. A memorial was dedicated in 1997 at the corner of Birch Lane and Skyline Drive in Eugene—the site of his fatal car accident.

2011 REVIEW

Rising up to the Challenge Oregon’s fifth straight Pac-10 title and a national championship in the 1,500 meters for Matthew Centrowitz highlighted the 2011 men’s track & field season. The Ducks also set three school records and saw tremendous representation at the 2011 IAAF World Track & Field Championships in Daegu, South Korea.

Early in the year, one of the top performances of the indoor season came at the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation meet, where the team of Mac Fleet, Mike Berry, Elijah Greer and Centrowitz set the school record in the distance medley relay in 9:26.78. That was the second-fastest time in NCAA history.

Later in the indoor season, senior David Klech impressed at the NCAA Championships by scoring 5,831 points to place sixth in just his second career heptathlon. Centrowitz would go on to also earn All-America honors in the 3,000 meters with a fourth-place finish. That was merely a prelude for what would become one of the best seasons in school history for the junior from Arnold, Md.

Matthew Centrowitz

One of the early notes of the outdoor season came at the Pepsi Team Invitational, where the Ducks scored 195 points to hold off No. 8 Nebraska (181), Washington (159) and Stanford (121). The competitive nature of the Ducks served them well, forging an 81.5-81.5 dual meet tie at UCLA, which carried over to the Pac10 Championships.

In a year where many predicted Oregon’s grip on the conference would finally wane, the Ducks persevered as all challengers eventually faded away. The men used wins by Berry in the 400 meters, Centrowitz in the 1,500 meters and Steve Finley in the 3,000 meter steeplechase (9:04.62) to carry the day. Berry’s win came in a school-record 44.91 as the freshman from Seattle snapped Otis Davis’ 51-year-old mark of 45.07, while Centrowitz won his third consecutive conference crown at 1,500 meters in 3:41.73.

But it was the multi-layered contributions from throughout the roster that truly led to Oregon’s 129 total points, which was ahead of second-place Arizona’s 112 and Arizona State, USC and UCLA, who all tied for third with 99 points each.

Contributing to the league title were runner-up performances by David Klech in the decathlon, Greer in the 800 meters, Austin Ouderkirk in the pole vault and Vernell Warren in the long jump. Klech was also third in the long jump and fifth in the 110 meter hurdles.

Others scoring included Brian Schaudt in the triple jump (third), Jordan Stray in the hammer (third), Luke Puskedra in the 5,000 (fourth) and 10,000 (fifth), Justin Frick in the high jump (fourth), Boru Guyota in the 800 (fifth), Alex Wolff in the javelin (fifth), Kevin Godfrey in the decathlon (sixth), A.J. Acosta in the 1,500 (seventh), Parker Stinson in the 10,000 meters (seventh) and Ethan Powell in the javelin (seventh).

David Klech

The Ducks then sent a large contingent on to the NCAA West Preliminary Rounds and the NCAA Championships, where Centrowitz took center stage. Having not lost at 1,500 meters since the 2010 NCAA final (where he was third behind teammates Andrew Wheating and Acosta), Centrowitz took command of every race in the postseason and captured his first NCAA title going away in 3:42.54.

Oregon also got a pair of third place finishes from Berry in the 400 meters and Greer in the 800, as well as a sixth-place showing from Puskedra in the 10,000 meters to finish tied for 10th overall. It was the Ducks’ third straight top-10 showing at the NCAA meet.

But the season was far from over. After the NCAA Championships, TrackTown USA hosted the 2011 U.S. Track and Field Championships, where Berry and Centrowitz once again stood out. Berry held his ground against a field of professionals to finish fifth in the final of the 400 meters. That earned him a trip to Daegu as a member of Team USA’s 4x400 meter relay pool. In the semifinals, Berry ran a blazing 43.83 to help the Americans qualify for the final, where the team won and Berry picked up a gold medal.

Centrowitz was even more impressive during the summer. He was a major surprise at the U.S. meet, where he stunned the Hayward Field crowd by winning the U.S. title. He displayed extreme patience in a slow final to find his opening late and win in 3:47.63. Then, needing to meet the IAAF World ‘B’ standard of 3:38.00 to gain eligibility for the World Championships, he traveled to Europe for the Diamond League meet in Paris in July and set the school record by nearly two seconds in a fast 1,500 meters in 3:34.69. He followed that with another school record at the Diamond League meet in Monaco, finishing 10th in 3:34.46.

Jordan Stray

All that led to an amazing bronze medal finish at the IAAF World Championships in August in Daegu. He became the youngest American ever to medal in the 1,500 meters by running 3:36.08. He was joined on Team USA by Berry and UO alums Ashton Eaton, Galen Rupp and Andrew Wheating.

2011 REVIEW

Indoor Champions Again For the second straight season, the Women of Oregon were the NCAA Indoor national champions, claimed the NCAA runner-up trophy outdoors and won the Pac-10 Conference title. Those impressive results meant that Oregon was named the national Terry Crawford Program of the Year for the third year in a row.

The Ducks dominated the indoor NCAA meet like few teams have ever done before. Oregon’s 67 points were the second-highest total in the history of the indoor championships, as the Ducks nearly doubled up second-place Texas’ 38 points.

Sophomore Jordan Hasay sparked the Ducks with wins in both the mile (4:33.01) and 3,000 meters (9:13.71). She also anchored Oregon’s runner-up distance medley relay squad (10:52.90). Both the mile and DMR times were school records, while she set the 3,000 meter mark of 9:05.42 earlier in the season. She was named the USTFCCCA national Indoor women’s track athlete of the year for her performance.

Melissa Gergel

Hasay received a strong effort from her Duck teammates to bring home the title. Brianne Theisen was just as impressive in winning her second straight NCAA pentathlon title, setting an NCAA record with 4,540 points. Theisen would come back to run the second leg of Oregon’s eighth-place 4x400 meter relay team (3:34.98) as she was named the USTFCCCA national Indoor women’s field athlete of the year.

Points came from all over for the Ducks. Amber Purvis was fifth in the 60 meters in a school record 7.20 and seventh in the 200 in a school-record 23.17. The Ducks were impressive in the mile, where Zoe Buckman was third and Anne Kesselring fourth to back Hasay’s win. Kesselring, Chizoba Okodogbe and Becca Friday preceded Hasay on the distance medley relay, while Okodogbe and Laura Roesler joined Purvis and Theisen on the 4x400 meter relay.

The Ducks also scored in the field events with Jamesha Youngblood taking third in the long jump and Melissa Gergel placing fourth in the pole vault. Earlier in the season, Alex Kosinski established the school record in the 5,000 meters by running 15:44.60.

Oregon continued its strong performances outdoors.

After winning a thrilling Pepsi Team Invitational with 205 points to hold off Nebraska’s 195.5, the Ducks overcame a number of injuries and some bad luck to win their third straight league title.

Freshman English Gardner captured the country’s attention by winning the Pac-10’s 100 meters in a school record 11.03. That time broke two fairly significant marks. It was an American junior record, bettering the 11.04 run by Angela Williams of USC in 1999, and it broke the meet record of 11.05 by UCLA’s Gail Devers in 1987. Gardner was also third in the 200 meters.

Mandy White

Hasay also played a vital role, winning both the 1,500 meters (4:19.18) and 5,000 meters (16:24.10). The Ducks also won the decisive 4x400 meter relay (Okodogbe, Purvis, Phyllis Francis and Roesler) in a meet record 3:29.63 to edge Arizona. Oregon scored 154.5 points to the Wildcats’ 150.

Other important contributors included Claire Michel and Lanie Thompson, who placed second and third, respectively in the 3,000 meter steeplechase, Gergel and Kortney Ross, who took second and third, respectively in the pole vault, Purvis, who was second in the 200 meters and third in the 100, Youngblood, who was second in the long jump and third in the triple jump, Okodogbe, who was third in the 400, Roesler, who was third in the 800 and Kesselring, who was third in the 1,500.

The Ducks claimed two individual national titles in their runner-up finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. In the 800 meters, Kesselring had just enough of a lead to hold off Natalja Piliusina of Oklahoma State. Kesselring crossed in 2:02.15, with the OSU runner timing 2:02.16. Gergel also claimed the first NCAA title of her career, winning the pole vault in a meet-record 14-7.25/4.45m.

The Ducks also set the school record in the 4x400 meter relay, as Michele Williams, Okodogbe, Francis and Roesler finished third in 3:28.18.

Youngblood was third in the long jump, while Friday impressed in the 1,500 meters with a fifth-place finish.

Hasay scored in two events, taking fourth in the 5,000 meters and eighth in the 1,500. Gardner overcame a collision in the 4x100 meter semifinals to place seventh in the 100 meters. Michel, who broke her own school record in the steeplechase at the regional meet in 10:02.55, placed eighth in that event.

Texas A&M won the team title with 49 points, with Oregon only four points back with 45, just ahead of Louisiana State’s 43.5.

RECORD BOOK

Dual Sport Letterwinners One of Oregon’s most prolific student-athletes, four-time All-American Jordan Kent, a rare three-sport letterman, anchored UO to its first Pac10 Championships victory in the 4x100 meter relay in the 2006 Pac-10 Championships at Hayward Field in Eugene. A month later, he returned to score All-America honors in the NCAA Championships 4x100 meters and added another top-eight NCAA finish in the 4x400 meters.

In 2009-10, two Ducks accomplished the rare feat of capturing both a Pac10 football and track championship - record-setting running back LaMichael James and teammate Kenjon Barner.

Another of Oregon’s top all-time receivers, Samie Parker took All-America honors in 2004 in the indoor 60 meter (third) and outdoor 100 meters (fifth), broke his school record in the 60 meters in the NCAA prelims (6.62), and climbed to second all-time for Oregon in the 100 meters (10.18). The Long Beach, Calif., native followed with a record-breaking final pigskin season, capped by the Sun Bowl Offensive MVP award for his 16-catch, 200-yard outing vs. Minnesota. He ranks among the top Duck receivers in career receptions (178) and yardage (2,761).

The Ducks’ dual-sport lineage dates back to the early ’30s, as one of the first famous two-sporters, Bill Bowerman, wrecked havoc in the defensive backfield in the fall, then ran the 440 yards in the spring for Colonel Bill Hayward.

In the NCAA Championships, two Duck football letterwinners claimed individual field event titles to open the ’50s. Chuck Missfeldt won the javelin title in 1951, and defensive end Emery Barnes followed with the 1952 high jump crown.

Split end Jerry Tarr continued the tradition into the early ’60s when he broke world records in the 120 yard hurdles en route to NCAA titles in 1961 and 1962. Halfback Mel Renfro took second behind him in the latter NCAA hurdle finale, and added a third in the long jump. Renfro was a second-round pick by Dallas and a Pro Bowl selection his first 10 years in the league. At the end of his career in the ’70s, he had helped the Cowboys to four Super Bowls and eight NFC title games, and finished with 52 interceptions and six touchdowns (3 interceptions, 1 punt return, 3 kickoff returns).

The ’80s saw Duck football stars explode off the horizontal runways as fullback Latin Berry became Oregon’s only long jumper to win All-America honors four straight seasons as he upped the school record to 26-8.5.

Cornerback J.J. Birden added to the Pac-10 scoring column with a long jump win of his own, and his best of 25-8.75 was only three inches shy of Renfro’s collegiate best (25-11.75).

Receiver/punt returner Pat Johnson ignited Autzen Stadium and Hayward Field crowds in the mid ’90s with equal aplomb. As a freshman, he became the first Duck to win All-America honors in the 100 and 200 meters the same season, and later left with several all-time Duck top-10 receiving marks. In 1998, Johnson became the 25th Duck to play in the Super Bowl as the Ravens cruised to a 34-7 win over the New York Giants. Cornerback Muhammad Oliver added two All-America decathlon honors in the early ’90s, and posted one of the best Duck decathlon scores ever (8,087).

For the women, Pac-10 heptathlon and long jump champion Kelly Blair, a three-time All-American, was a force on the basketball court in 1990 and ’92. In 2003, All-American Mary Etter won the inaugural West Regional discus title en route to her fourth NCAA trip, and also lettered as a soccer goalkeeper. Amanda Brown also advanced to the 2003 collegiate finale in the triple jump, and played basketball as a freshman.

Rachel Yurkovich, the 2008 NCAA javelin champion and three-time Pac-10 champion, won U.S. and Pan-Am Junior Championships javelin titles in 2005, then played volleyball for UO that fall.

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

Robert Berdahl Interim University President 1st Year

Robert Berdahl was appointed as interim president of the University of Oregon effective December 29, 2011. He plans to serve until mid-September 2012 or until a permanent president is selected.

Berdahl has deep ties to the University of Oregon and is recognized as a national leader in higher education. He was a history professor at the UO from 1967 to 1986 and served as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences from 1981 to 1986.

He then spent seven years as vice chancellor for academic affairs at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign, four years as president of the University of Texas and seven years as chancellor at the University of California at Berkeley.

Berdahl left UC Berkeley to become president of the Association of American Universities (AAU).

The AAU is an association of 61 leading public and private research universities in the United States and Canada.

As AAU president, his policy successes included enactment of the America COMPETES Act — a congressional move to encourage research investment and an improvement in U.S. competitiveness — along with increases in federal support for basic research.

The AAU worked closely under Berdahl with the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation and the departments of Energy, Defense and Education. It also worked with Congress to prompt a review of the nation’s research universities by the National Academy of Sciences.

Berdahl received his B.A. from Augustana College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, his M.A. from the University of Illinois, and his Ph.D from the University of Minnesota, which also awarded him an honorary Doctorate of Science in 1997. In 2010, New York University awarded him an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters, and he has received an honorary doctorate and distinguished alumnus award from Augustana College, a Fulbright Research Fellowship, and an NEH Independent Study and Research Fellowship. He has been a Research Associate at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and at the Max Planck Institute for History in Goettingen, Germany. Berdahl was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2001. He is the author of one book and the co-author of another, and has written numerous articles dealing with German history.

Berdahl was born in 1937 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. He and his wife Margaret (Peg) have three married daughters, Daphne (deceased), Jennifer, and Barbara, and six grandchildren.

ATHLETICS DIRECTOR University of Oregon President Richard Lariviere named Rob Mullens director of intercollegiate athletics on July 15, 2010. Mullens arrived from the University of Kentucky, where he served as deputy director of athletics and managed day-to-day operations of Kentucky’s 22-sport athletics department, with an annual operating budget of $79 million.

His background is in accounting and auditing, and he promoted sound fiscal management and self-sufficiency at the University of Kentucky. During his total of eight years at Kentucky, the athletic department’s operating budget expanded by nearly 70 percent. Fundraising for the department hit record levels each of the past seven years prior to his departure.

Prior to being named deputy director of athletics at Kentucky, Mullens served as the university’s executive associate director of athletics from 2002 to 2006. He served at the University of Maryland from 1996 to 2002, starting as assistant director of athletics for business and ultimately as executive senior associate director of athletics and chief of staff.

The West Virginia native was senior athletics business manager at the University of Miami (Fla.) from 1994 to 1996, and prior to that he was an accountant/auditor at Ernst & Young in Raleigh, N.C. “Much will be expected of Rob Mullens as the university’s new athletics director, and based on his track record I am confident that he will be very successful at the University of Oregon,” Lariviere said.

“Rob has been asked to develop a clear vision to maintain and advance the UO’s competitive advantages in fundraising, facilities development and recruitment and retention of student-athletes and staff. He will insure that the athletics department remains financially self-sufficient, while at the same time promoting an environment that helps each student athlete to succeed in the classroom as well as the field of competition.

“This is a period of important growth and change for the athletics department. A new basketball arena will open within a year and additional improvements are on the way for other athletics facilities. It will be Rob’s role to not only oversee and promote future advances for the department, but to nurture the individual programs that will fill those outstanding venues.”

Mullens (7/19/69) went to school at West Virginia University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration and a master’s degree in sport management. He and his wife, Jane, have two sons - Cooper and Tanner.
