The track community in Eugene believed that only the newer but less Phone: 979-661-0731 adored West Grandstand – built in 1974 – was to be removed, along with the unsightly Bower- man Building. That had been the announced architectural plan a year earlier. That information was not updated until the last minute. A few concerned citizens quickly tried to organize around this sudden new development, ar- riving at a Eugene City Council meeting demanding action. They underestimated their opposi- tion, as this move had already been anticipated by Nike, the company that is apparently paying for the new stadium. The City Council’s attempted initial actions to protect the grandstand were quickly blocked -- not by Nike, which technically had no legal standing in the matter, but by the University itself. It seems that the Oregon president, Michael H. Schill, was in on the arrange- ment from the start. The university administration took care of the remaining dirty work, and within hours of the end of the NCAA championships on Saturday, June 9, destruction of the East Grandstand began. The new stadium is supposed to open April 2020. It is supposed to have 12,900 permanent seats, be a horseshoe construction, have a roof over at least some of the seats, and include a “tower” that will have office space formerly in the Bowerman Building. Phil Knight, the Nike founder who is presumably pay- ing for most of the construction, has already had to step back from using Bill Bowerman’s name on the tower, deferring to objections from the Bowerman family. Knight has also admitted that he is going to be unpopular for tearing down the East Grandstand. It’s not clear how much animosity will remain in the Eugene track community over the way this project has been handled. Will season ticket sales decline? Or, looking at a gleaming new stadium, will opposition evaporate? There is precedent in Eu- gene for this. After a long, protracted attempt by the university to tear down beloved McArthur Court – the school’s basket- ball arena since 1926 – Matthew Knight Arena was built in 2011. That new building has stadium-style seating, not bleachers – more comfortable for alumni who buy the season tickets and make donations, but frequently do not show up for the games themselves. The student body, who had the best seats in the house at Mac Court and as a result gave the place a notorious homecourt advantage, has been removed to out-of-the-way seating. Will this tradeoff – shiny, boring new for passionate, packed-in old – be Hayward Field’s fate as well? Those of us here at the TAFWA Home Office do not know what the plans are for media services and media seating in the new Hayward Field. We were not consulted in any way. No detailed plans have been released regarding this aspect of the structure. We do assume that the electronic part of the infrastructure will be state of the art, and it is our understanding that there will be an elevator at the rear of at least one side of the grandstand, which would be helpful to members of the press who now have to run up and down multiple flights of stairs to do their jobs. Heck, even Sac State has an elevator. We also do not know about physical plans for still photography and television, though we suspect the latter has been duly consulted. We also do not know about parking, though we assume that no new parking places will materialize. On the contrary, it is our understanding that 15th Street – the street directly north of the stadium – will be closed permanently and become a walkway, eliminating some 150 existing parking spaces. 2020 Olympic Trials USATF announced that the new host of the Trials would be announced on Friday, June 8. That came and went. Since then it has been announced that there are now three finalists for the Trials – Eugene, Sacramento, and Austin, Texas. Mt. SAC is gone away, and we wonder if the new Hilmer Lodge Stadium will ever get built, given the continuing lawsuits and financial battles. If it does, Mt. SAC could be a future home to such meets as the NCAA and the USATF, given the excellent climate and location. But first the school will have to rebuild its credibility. Meantime, the Mt. SAC Invitational continues to be held at other locations each April. Eventually, does the name change, or that meet die off? Speaking of that, what of the 2019 Prefontaine Classic? With Hayward Field out of the picture, it is our understanding that the 2019 Pre – which is to be held a month later than usual, because of the lateness of next year’s World Championships and USA selection meet – will remain in Eugene, at Lane Community College. To accommodate the event, some 8,000 temporary seats are expected to be set up, and the meet is expected to be a one-day event, dropping the Friday schedule. We expect the event to tax the two-year school’s infrastructure considerably, but this is a way to keep the event in Eugene, a real plus for meet organizers. It would return to Hayward Field by the spring of 2020, assuming that the new building is completed on time. Similar relocation issues have arisen regarding the NCAA Championships and the Oregon state high school champion- ships, demonstrating the crucial role adequate facilities play in this and any other sport. The Oregon high school association plans to break its current six-meet event into three parts and move them around the state. One meet would be held in Portland – possibly Mt Hood Community College – one at Western Oregon in Monmouth, and possibly the third in Bend. This way, the anticipated crowds can be accommodated at each smaller locale. As for the NCAA, as previously announced, the University of Texas will be the host school for 2019 and 2020, and the meet will return to Eugene for 2021 and 2022. Then of course, there’s also those pesky World Championships – technically that is the main reason given for the New Hayward Field – set for Eugene in 2021. Word has it that a new organization is being formed in Eugene to handle the final three-year run-up to the big event. Rumor has it that this new org may actually take the place of the TrackTown group, includ- ing changes in the management team. This could mean the permanent end of TrackTown as an entity. We are not sure what any of this means, and it’s hard to find out because the principals in the organizations mentioned above rarely give a straight answer to anything. As for the 2020 Trials, Eugene – host of the previous three – is the presumed frontrunner. After all, they would have a gleaming new stadium. The main sticking point would be Eugene’s inability to guarantee completion on time. Nothing much has changed at Sac State – honestly, who wants to go back there? As for Austin, it is a vibrant city full of en- ergy. It has far more places to eat and stay than Eugene. It actually has direct flights from other time zones, and has a stadium that seats 18,000. Texas is a bigtime university. The weather in the summer, however, would be disastrous for the distance events. The stadium has no overhead protection, whether in 100-degree heat or the torrential rainstorms that frequently pass through town. Stay tuned.

  • The Other Bill
    © Copyright 12/1/2017 Phil Sutton The Other Bill By Phil Sutton, OTC member Special to the Oregon Track Club Track and field fans know the names Bill Bowerman and Bill Dellinger. They both made their mark on the sport while coaching at the University of Oregon. Well, there was another “Bill” in sports at the University of Oregon. Bill Hayward coached at the UO for 44 years (yes, over four decades!). He was Oregon’s first full time track coach. He laid the foundation for the University Oregon’s track and field program and molded it into a national powerhouse. He is considered the grandfather of today’s Duck program. Historic Hayward Field is named in his honor. William Louis Heyward was born in 1868 in Detroit, Michigan. His last name was Heyward with an “e” but he changed the spelling to Hayward in the early 1890’s. His father was English and his mother Canadian. When Bill was ten, his parents moved to Peru to manage a rubber plantation. They left Bill, his brother and three sisters with grandparents. They raised the children for the next ten years, first in Detroit and then in Toronto, Canada. As a young man Bill lived in Vancouver, Canada. He was employed as a fireman in one of the city’s firehouse brigades. Bill and his wife also owned a fruit and cigar stand. The photo of Bill Hayward above was taken in the 1940's.

ABSTRACT This study explores the history of English women's athletics, from the earliest references up to 1980. There is detailed discussion of smock racing and pedestrianism during the eighteenth- and nineteenth-centuries, but attention is focused on the period from 1921, when international and then domestic governing bodies were formed and athletics .became established as a legitimate sporting activity for women.

  • I TEAM JAPAN: THEMES of 'JAPANESENESS' in MASS MEDIA
    i TEAM JAPAN: THEMES OF ‘JAPANESENESS’ IN MASS MEDIA SPORTS NARRATIVES A Dissertation submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Michael Plugh July 2015 Examining Committee Members: Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Advisory Chair, Media and Communication Doctoral Program Nancy Morris, Media and Communication Doctoral Program John Campbell, Media and Communication Doctoral Program Lance Strate, External Member, Fordham University ii © Copyright 2015 by MichaelPlugh All Rights Reserved iii Abstract This dissertation concerns the reproduction and negotiation of Japanese national identity at the intersection between sports, media, and globalization. The research includes the analysis of newspaper coverage of the most significant sporting events in recent Japanese history, including the 2014 Koshien National High School Baseball Championships, the awarding of the People’s Honor Award, the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup, wrestler Hakuho’s record breaking victories in the sumo ring, and the bidding process for the 2020 Olympic Games. 2054 Japanese language articles were examined by thematic analysis in order to identify the extent to which established themes of “Japaneseness” were reproduced or renegotiated in the coverage. The research contributes to a broader understanding of national identity negotiation by illustrating the manner in which established symbolic boundaries are reproduced in service of the nation, particularly via mass media. Furthermore, the manner in which change is negotiated through processes of assimilation and rejection was considered through the lens of hybridity theory. iv To my wife, Ari, and my children, Hiroto and Mia. Your love sustained me throughout this process.

    IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE London (GBR) 21st - 22nd July 2018 Flash Quotes TIMING, RESULTS SERVICE & DISTANCE MEASUREMENT BY Dwayne COWAN (GBR) 400m Men National - 1st (45.65 SB) Hopefully there is an individual spot left. I am happy with the race today. Martyn and I are quite similar at the moment. I've been injured all season, so hopefully I can finish the year off strongly. I love this stadium - I always run fast here. 21/07/2018 12:43 Martyn ROONEY (GBR) 400m Men National - 2nd (46.11) I have a bye as the defending champion so hopefully I'll be selected for Europeans. I thought the run was disappointing. I thought coming here I'd run a 45 second low time but it's just not happening. We'll wait and see what the championships bring, it's just about hard training between now and then. 21/07/2018 12:44 Tom BOSWORTH (GBR) 3000m Race Walk Men - 1st (10:43.9) PB, WR, WL It was a shock to do that. I've just come back from altitude training but I still wanted to see what I could do and this is all heading in the right direction for the Europeans. Coming to the London Stadium changes everything for me. Usually I'm on the road and race walking isn't included in the Diamond League very often. I thought there was going to be trouble if I got beaten but I knew the crowd would push me home in that world class field. He was fourth in London last year and I knew it was going to take a PB to win.
