* I Page 12 THE BATTALION WEDNESDAY, JULY 7, 1976 American men, women prepare for Olympics Continued from p. 11. “It’s the day with all the goodies, ” the former water-skiing champion said. Charles Foster and Willie Daven port, who finished first and second in the 110-meter hurdles, were not sure of their chances at the Trials. Foster came to Eugene with a dam aged hamstring, which he acquired at the recent AAU championships. Davenport was fighting greater odds. A year before, he had anopera- tion on his left knee. Two days after the operation, blood clots appeared in both lungs. Davenport’s doctor told him then that there was a good possibility he would never run again. “I said then that I would be back, ” said Davenport, “and I can only thank God that I am.” Steve Williams, the only man ever to run four world-record 9.9s in the 100-meters, also came away from the AAU meet with damaged hamstrings He was unable to run his best and thus, Harvey Glance and Mil lard Hampton, both 19, won the two races, but neither has any interna tional experience. Edwin Moses, Quentin Wheeler and Mike Shine are new faces to the Olympic 400-meter intermediate hurdles, but these young men will represent the U.S. at Montreal. Moses, having raced in this event for only three nonths, is the third fastest man of all time. The 1968 and 1972 silver medal winner in the shot put, George Woods, is teammate, Al Feuerbach, has a better throw this year, 71-4 to 70-11-14. Whatever the outcome of the events in Montreal this summer, we can be sure that each person compet ing will do his best for himself and for the U.S. Although the women will be try ing every bit as hard as the men, the American females are not expected to do well against their European competitors. The 1976 team has potential, but it’s been said that potential doesn’t win today, it wins tomorrow. Kathy Schmidt, a bronze medal winner in the javelin throw at the Munich in 1972, is thought by many to be America’s only hope for a gold medal. Two teenagers will represent the U.S. in the 1,000-and the 200-meter sprints, 19-year-old Brenda Morehead and 17-year-old Chandra Cheesebo rough. Morehead may have as good a chance at a gold medal as Schmidt does. The freshman from Tennessee State won both short races at the U.S. Trials at Eugene, Ore., run ning within .04 seconds of the world record in the 100-meter run, with 11.08. A slight aiding wind in her 200-meter run kept Morehead from an American record. Cheesebo rough, who holds the U.S. 200-meter mark, was second in both races. These two women will join two other women, not yet named, on a 400-meter relay squad that may also contend for a gold medal if the team perfects its baton passing. Three excellent women runners will be competing in the 1,500 meter run for the U.S.: Cyndy Poor, Fran- cie Larrieu and Jan Merrill ran a tight race in Eugene, and each are capable of winning a medal. Kathy McMillan will be compet ing in the long jump. She holds the American record of22feet, 3 inches. The pentahlon (100-meter j dies, shotput, high jump, ‘ and 200-meters) will be represei I by the three women who wei Munich. Jane Frederick won event at the Trials and was by Gale Fitzgerald and Mai King. The 800-meter run was wo Madeline Manning Jackson, tlie U.S. woman to scrape under minutes for this event. She and the rest of the U.$,| will soon be in Plattsburgh, Nj prepare for their Olympic coo, tion.
