Meanwhile, a BIG T&F meet at Oregon

UCLA and Oregon are renewing their intense Track&Field rivalry this Saturday with an "old-school" style DUAL MEET. It will be up at Historic Hayward Field in Eugene and feature some of the NCAA's top talent, especially UCLA's throwers and Oregon's distance guys.

This year it will only be the men competing. Oregon fans are rabid and loyal supporters of the track team.

Our beloved Bruins have much less support these days from the student body and recent alums, so I encourage you BNers to show our boys -- who are currently ranked #3 in the nation -- some love.

Meet will be webcast (see link) and starts just after noon on Saturday April 19.
