  • Top 10 Steve Prefontaine Quotes
    Top 10 Steve Prefontaine Quotes By: Johanna Gretschel for MileSplit Last January 25th was Steve Prefontaine's 65th birthday. The legend of "Pre," as the crowds cheered in 1970s Hayward Field, or "Rube," as University of Oregon coaches Bill Bowerman and Bill Dellinger addressed their young protegé, looms large in the public imagination. Why does the world continue to love Steve Prefontaine? One, because the world never got to see what he could do. He died in a car accident in 1975 at age 24. In that brief lifetime, Pre won 119 of 151 outdoor track races including six NCAA titles and set 15 American records at every distance from two miles through 10K. Two, because of his forthright personality. Pre was a champion of athletes' rights -- he fought the AAU for a better living wage at a time when Olympic hopefuls were not allowed to accept payment for racing -- and an outspoken competitor -- someone who never shied away from declaring his intent on running For The Win. That outspokenness has granted Pre immortality. His quotes live on on T-shirts, posters and countless social media channels as daily affirmations for inspiration towards athletic greatness. Scroll through the slideshow to see a few of our favorites. Happy Birthday, Steve. Somebody may beat me, but they are going to have to bleed to do it. I'm going to work so that it's a pure guts race at the end, and if it is, I am the only one who can win it. To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.

    10 DIVISION I Cross Country DIVISION I 2000 Championships Highlights Razorbacks Triumph in Wintry Weather: Braving temperatures in the teens and a wind- chill factor below zero, four Arkansas runners placed among the first 24 finishers to give Arkansas its third straight title November 20 at Iowa State. The Razorbacks scored 83 team points to edge Colorado's total of 94 and secure their division- best 11th championship. The 11-point advantage marked Arkansas' smallest margin of victory in a championship since a 10-point win over Arizona for its first title in 1984. James Karanu was the first Razorback to finish, completing the 10,000-meter course in 30 min- utes, 42.7 seconds and in 11th place. Teammates Sharif Karie and Murray Link were close behind, finishing 13th and 16th, respectively. Keith Kelly became Providence's first individual champion. Kelly, who registered a time of 30 min- utes, 14.5 seconds over the 10,000-meter course, edged Fairleigh Dickinson's Stephen Ondieki by 1.8 seconds.

  • Southern Oregon Past& Medford's Nike Connection: Bill Bowerman By
    Medford’s Nike Connection: Bill Bowerman By Dennis Powers Former Medford High football player and coach, Bill Bowerman, later went on to become a legend in coaching track--and a co-founder of Nike. He played for another stand-out, Prink Callison, whose Medford teams had a 44-game win streak at one time and won three state championships from 1926 to 1928. The 1928 Medford “Tigers” (as the team was called then)--one of the best teams ever in Southern Oregon--averaged 36 points a game, limited opponents to 40 points for the entire season, and Bill Bowerman was their left end. Born in 1911, Bowerman moved to Medford when he was 10 years old. Raised by his mother and aunts (his father left the family when he was 2), he was “a mean little kid,” by his own admission. When he went out for football as a sophomore, Callison wouldn’t put up with his antics and kicked him off the varsity team to junior varsity. Bowerman credits both him and Superintendent Hedrick (for whom the middle school on East Jackson Street is named) as disciplinarians who straightened him out. He also played basketball and edited the school newspaper. After high school, he went to the University of Oregon (“OU”) and became a quarter- mile runner under legendary Ducks’ track coach, Colonel Bill Hayward; this coach became the mentor under which Bowerman modeled himself and learned the “concepts of greatness,” as he reminisced. With his bachelor’s degree in 1934, Bowerman decided to attend medical school, but he first had to earn tuition.

  • SOT - Randalls Island - July 3-4/ OT Los Angeles - September 12-13
    1964 MEN Trials were held in Los Angeles on September 12/13, some 5 weeks before the Games, after semi-final Trials were held at Travers Island in early July with attendances of 14,000 and 17,000 on the two days. To give the full picture, both competitions are analyzed here. SOT - Randalls Island - July 3-4/ OT Los Angeles - September 12-13 OT - 100 Meters - September 12, 16.15 Hr 1. 5. Bob Hayes (Florida A&M) 10.1 2. 2. Trenton Jackson (Illinois) 10.2 3. 7. Mel Pender (US-A) 10.3 4. 8. Gerry Ashworth (Striders) [10.4 –O] 10.3e 5. 6. Darel Newman (Fresno State) [10.4 – O] 10.3e 6. 1. Charlie Greene (Nebraska) 10.4 7. 3. Richard Stebbins (Grambling) 10.4e 8. 4. Bernie Rivers (New Mexico) 10.4e Bob Hayes had emerged in 1962, after a 9.3y/20.1y double at the '61 NAIA, and inside 3 seasons had stamped himself as the best 100 man of all-time. However, in the AAU he injured himself as he crossed the line, and he was in the OT only because of a special dispensation. In the OT race Newman started well but soon faded and Hayes, Jackson and Pender edged away from the field at 30m, with Hayes' power soon drawing clear of the others. He crossed the line 5ft ahead, still going away, and the margin of 0.1 clearly flattered Jackson. A time of 10.3 would have been a fairer indication for both Jackson and Ashworth rather than the official version of 10.4, while Stebbins and Rivers (neither officially timed) are listed at 10.4e from videotape.
