  • Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I
    DIVISION I 103 Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I 2001 Championships OUTDOOR TRACK Highlights Volunteers Are Victorious: Tennessee used a strong performance from its sprinters to edge TCU by a point May 30-June 2 at Oregon. The Volunteers earned their third title with 50 points, as the championship-clinching point was scored by the 1,600-meter relay team in the final event of the meet. Knowing it only had to finish the event to secure the point to break the tie with TCU, Tennessee’s unit passed the baton careful- ly and placed eighth. Justin Gatlin played the key role in getting Tennessee into position to win by capturing the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Gatlin was the meet’s only individual double winner. Sean Lambert supported Gatlin’s effort by finishing fourth in the 100. His position was another important factor in Tennessee’s victory, as he placed just ahead of a pair of TCU competitors. Gatlin and Lambert composed half of the Volunteers’ 400-meter relay team that was second. TCU was led by Darvis Patton, who was third in the 200, fourth in the long jump and sixth in the 100. He also was a member of the Horned Frogs’ victorious 400-meter relay team. TEAM STANDINGS 1. Tennessee ..................... 50 Colorado St. ................. 10 Missouri........................ 4 2.

  • Commemorative Plaques Honoring LA City Prep Legends
    UNI HI EDUCATION FOUNDATION The sole, officially-authorized alumni support organization for University High School Commemorative plaques honoring L.A. City prep legends Dick Kampmann and Mel Patton to be unveiled at campus luncheon on May 15 LOS ANGELES, May 5, 2016 – Two men who made Los Angeles City High School sports history will be honored with massive plaques commemorating their achievements at University High School at an on-campus luncheon on May 15. In 1943, Mel Patton completed his second straight sweep of the 100-yard and 220-yard City titles and set school records that would not be broken for more than 30 years. Five years later, after completing his service in World War II, “Pell Mel” was the “World’s Fastest Man” heading into the 1948 Olympic Games in London and won two gold medals, in the 200 meters and 4x100 m relay. He is the only Olympic gold medalist in Uni history. Dick Kampmann never ran as fast as Patton, but he followed Patton’s legendary coach, Jim Pursell, at the West Los Angeles campus and went on to even greater heights. As mentor of the cross country and track & field teams from 1960-85, Kampmann brought eight All-City team championships to Uni, 77 Western League titles and 875 dual-meet victories. His athletes won 24 individual All-City championships and 252 league titles, in all divisions. For these achievements, the school’s new football field and track & field facilities were named “Kampmann Stadium” and “Patton Track” in ceremonies in October 2015. The naming effort was led by the Uni Hi Education Foundation (UHEF), devoted to supporting the school’s curriculum and programs in a time of diminished public funding.

  • All Time Men's World Ranking Leader
    All Time Men’s World Ranking Leader EVER WONDER WHO the overall best performers have been in our authoritative World Rankings for men, which began with the 1947 season? Stats Editor Jim Rorick has pulled together all kinds of numbers for you, scoring the annual Top 10s on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis. First, in a by-event compilation, you’ll find the leaders in the categories of Most Points, Most Rankings, Most No. 1s and The Top U.S. Scorers (in the World Rankings, not the U.S. Rankings). Following that are the stats on an all-events basis. All the data is as of the end of the 2019 season, including a significant number of recastings based on the many retests that were carried out on old samples and resulted in doping positives.

WHEN LOUIE MET BILLY 12. FORGIVENESS Louis Zamperini was born to Italian-immigrant parents - living in Olean, New York - on the 26th of January, 1917. He had an older brother (Pete) and two younger sisters (Sylvia and Virginia). When the boys were still toddlers, they developed pneumonia. The family doctor recommended a move to California, so the Zamperinis - who still spoke Italian in their home - moved to Long Beach. Not long after, they settled in Torrance. Often in trouble, Louie's focus changed when he was 15 years old. His brother suggested that athletics might be good for him, and Louie agreed. Still in high school, he decided to run - as fast as he could - everywhere he could: I had made up my mind to run everywhere. Instead of hitchiking to the beach four miles, I ran to the beach. I'd run from Redondo to Hermosa and back, and then run home at night. All summer long, that's what I did. So I piled up a lot of miles. But I had no idea how fast I could run. I had no idea what I was doing to my body.

  • Jim Parque's National Team Stats Bill Scott's National
    The UCLA baseball program has sent eight players to play for the USA Baseball National Team a total of 10 times, beginning with the selection of Shane Mack in 1984. Most recently, former UCLA shortstop Brandon Crawford helped the U.S. National Team capture its second consecutive FISU (International University Sports Federation) World Championship in the summer of 2006. Crawford’s selection in 2006 marked the first time a Bruin had been named since Karp, a right-handed pitcher, competed for the national team in 2000. The 2006 U.S. National Team finished its summer campaign with a 28-2-1 mark and successfullyl defended its gold medal won in the 2004 FISU Tournament in Taiwan. UCLA’s student-athletes have not been the only individuals affiliated with the U.S. National Team. While working as an assistant coach at USC in the summer of 2000, current UCLA head coach John Savage served as an assistant to Mike Gillespie for the U.S. National Team of collegiate all-stars.
