TRACK & FIELD Panthers ready for final leg of season

By Michael Gilbert SPORTS REPORTER

With its under card all completed, the Eastern men's and women's track and field teams will now prepare for the main event. That event will take place Friday on an oval about a quarter of a mile long In Nashville, Tenn., and If the regular season Is any Indication, the Panthers can't wait to sink the rest of the Ohio Valley Conference competition. The OVC Championship will begin at 4 p.m. Friday and conclude Saturday evening. Both the men and women will go Into the OVC championship on a positive note after competing last weekend at the Drake Relays in Iowa and the Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville 1\vilight. The Drake Relays were the equivalent of an all- star meet and despite facing some of the top competition from the Big 12, Big Ten and Pac-10, the Panthers were near the top of the leaderboard in their respective events. Leading the charge for the Panthers was senior sprinter Jarrod Macklin, who finished in a tie for seventh-place in the 400-meters with a time of 46.65 seconds. Macklln's time was just over a sec- ond off the winning time of 45. 16 turned in by Mitch Potter of Minnesota. Macklin wasn't the only Panther to shine in the Volunteer state. Fellow senior Jermaine Jones had a strong showing in the 400-meter hurdles with a time of 52.51, which placed him sixth over- all. Kyle O'Brien, who is an NCAA Championship provisional qualifier in the 10,000-meter, showed his versatility by finishing eighth in the shorter 5,000-meter run. Assistant coach John Mcinerney was pleased by the performers who made the trip to Iowa for STEPHEN HAAS/ ASSOCIATE PHOTO EDITOR the tune-up meet. Senior thrower Sandra Hussey practices throwing the javelin April 3. Hussey finished third at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville Twilight meet.
