    WHO WAS Z-BEST OLYMPIAN in 2008 and 2012?

    Journal of Student Research (2014) Volume 3, Issue 1: pp. 1-12 WHO WAS z-BEST OLYMPIAN IN 2008 AND 2012? Ian D. MacKaya, Jack W. Markusena, Paul M. Sommersa The authors examine athletes’ performances in swimming, track, and gymnastic events during the 2008 Beijing Olympics and 2012 London Olympics with the purpose of discovering the most dominant performance. By standardizing great athletic performances using a z-score (the number of standard deviations from the average performance in the finals of a particular event), winners were compared amongst the three sports. The most dominant athlete (with the highest z-score, calculated with or without the last place finisher) was neither celebrated swimmer Michael Phelps nor sprinter Usain Bolt, but rather American LaShawn Merritt in the 400 meter run.

    The Hall of Honor and the Move to Tier One Athletics By Debbie Z. Harwell rom its earliest days, the University of Houston rose to Fthe top in athletics—not in football or basketball as you might expect, but in ice hockey. The team competed for the first time in 1934 against Rice Institute in the Polar Wave Ice Rink on McGowan Street. It went undefeated for the season, scoring three goals to every one for its opponents. The next year, only one player returned, but the yearbook reported that they “represented a fighting bunch of puck- pushers.” They must have been because the team had no reserves and played entire games without a break.1 The sports picture changed dramatically in 1946 when the University joined the Lone Star Conference (LSC) and named Harry H. Fouke as athletic director. He added coaches in men’s tennis, golf, track, football, and basketball, and a new director of women’s athletics focused on physical education.

    Indoor Track and Field DIVISION I MEN’S

    Indoor Track and Field DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Florida claims top spot in men’s indoor track: At the end of the two-day gamut of ups and downs that is the Division I NCAA Indoor Track and Field National Champion- ships, Florida coach Mike Holloway had a hard time thinking of anything that went wrong for the Gators. “I don’t know,” Holloway said. “The worst thing that happened to me was that I had a stomachache for a couple of days.” There’s no doubt Holloway left the Randal Tyson Track Center feeling better on Saturday night. That’s because a near-fl awless performance by the top-ranked Gators re- sulted in the school’s fi rst indoor national championship. Florida had come close before, fi nishing second three times in Holloway’s seven previous years as head coach. “It’s been a long journey and I’m just so proud of my staff . I’m so proud of my athletes and everybody associated with the program,” Holloway said. “I’m almost at a loss for words; that’s how happy I am. “It’s just an amazing feeling, an absolutely amazing feeling.” Florida began the day with 20 points, four behind host Arkansas, but had loads of chances to score and didn’t waste time getting started. After No. 2 Oregon took the lead with 33 points behind a world-record performance in the heptathlon from Ashton Eaton and a solid showing in the mile, Florida picked up seven points in the 400-meter dash.
