Bruce3404 No. 1 Share Posted June 10, 2023 See posts at the end of this thread for final results... --------------------------------------------------------------------- How things change overnight! A few relay bobbles by superior-rated teams and all of a sudden, the podium (4th in this case) is possible. As it now stands, we project to score 38 points (vs 25 just the other day). From my point of view, it all comes down to how we do in the 1500 (which starts at 6:12 on ESPN2). Should our 1500 athletes come up big and the relay teams run to their capabilities, we've got a shot at what seemed impossible after day 1. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDuck No. 4 Share Posted June 11, 2023 No podium, a close 4th. Good job but...Feels like something needs to change to get back to where Track Town should be. We need a world class indoor facility, Mr. Knight. We have the coolest track stadium in the world already. What's the deal? Men scored 2 points. Ugh.

Bruce3404 Author No. 5 Share Posted June 11, 2023 The 1500 squad more than came through and Van Klinken's worst throw would have won. Great day for the Ducks and while we're not where we used to be, props to Shalane Flanagan's fine job with the milers and Coach Blu's work with the throwers. Between the two, we scored 35 of our 44 points. We might have gotten second had not our top hurdler been injured, the awful performance by World Championship finalist Shana Grebo (400H) is a head-scratcher and Pac 12 Champ Shelby Moran's shutout in the Hammer all kept us from finishing 2nd. A long way from TX, but a young team that should remain in the podium hunt the next few years and maybe win it all with continuing good recruiting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
