By TOM GRESS Staff Reporter Wiley, who last ran for KU in 1972, finished second in the 200 meter finals with a 20.54 time at the cold and wet University of Oregon track. James Butler, a former Oklahoma State basketball Adversary led Wiley for the win with a 20.49 time. "Clifford ran a great race all the way through." Gary Pepin, KU assistant track coach, said last night. "He was poised and in control." ANOTHER EX-KU star who wore well was pole vaulter Terry Porter. Porter, who competed for KU from 1973 to 1976, made tomorrow's finals when he cleared the qualifying height of 17-ft. He could be one of the favorites in the finals. "He jumped real well today," he said. "He's got a good shot at winning it." Former Jayhawk and four-time Olympic discus champion A尔勒 Otert failed in his bid to make the Olympic team for a fifth time. Otert was in third place, good enough to qualify, when the final round began, but former Blunke hatched over Otert thrower Ben Plunket hitter of Otert with a 121-foot shot. Otert's best throw was 215-7. Mac Wilken won the event with a 225-foot toss. Oerter, 41, received a standing ovation after the competition "Stan had a fine race and almost made it, but Deen probably had his worst战 the outdoor season," Pepin said. "I don't think the cold weather bothered Hogan but he just couldn't run well. the top four from the two heats went to the finals. "It was terrific," Pepin said. "The fans just kept going and going. I had Stubblefield, the Kansas City high school who has yet to decide whether to attend KU or Arkansas State, also didn't make the height. KU has one athlete left in the trials. Higher jumper Joel Løel, who had his best jump of 7-2 against the University of Oregon in Eugene last April, completes Saturday. The opening height in the Trials' will be 7*13^4. Pole vaulter Jeff Buckingham failed to clear the qualifying height. Steve Stan Whitaker and Deon Hogan both tailed to make the finals of the 400 meter. Whitaker finished fifth in his heat, a 47.54 to seventh in his heat. Only THE SUCCESS FORMER KU athletes had did not carry over to the current KU stars competing in the meet. tears in my eyes." Owolabi looks to 1984 Olympics By TOM GRESS Actually Owolabi already had two good jumps that could have propelled him from Saturday's qualifying round into Sunday's final. But Owolabi's foot left edge the takeoff board on jumps, disqualifying him each time. EARNING A SPOT on the Olympic team would have capped a year that many jumpers would be envious of. Owolabi led the NCAA indoor championship in March when he popped a 54-46 jump. On June 7, he won a $13% jump that gave him second place at the NCAA outdoor championships. Sanya *Owolabi*, KU triple-jumper, need one good jump at last Saturday's Olympic Track and Field trials to see his chances at becoming an Olympian. through the qualifying round, the prelims and got that good jump in the finals. It just all came together." "I'm already looking forward to 1984," Owlabi said. "I had a good season, a big improvement over his freshman year, so it wasn't so bad." Had Owolabi not fouled on the two jumps, he would have had a good chance at finishing in the top three, the placing needed to earn a spot on the Olympic team. Owolabi's best jump is 54-11%, not off warille Banks' win, but off 83% at the trials. But Owolabi did not leave the trials disappointed. Staff Reporter SO ON HIS third and final jump, Owolabi approached the board cautiously and leaped 51 feet, about two to three feet short of his usual jump. He landed with missed qualifying because only the top 12 jumpers went to the finals. It didn't all come together at the trials, however, and Owolabi is now looking for consistency. "At the outdoors I kept com up short of the board. It was the opposite of the problem I had at the trials, and I was worried," he said. "But I got "They were good jumps." Owolabi said about the tainted leaps. "They were good enough to get me qualified. But the official said I was over." Although the United States isn't going to the Moscow Olympics because of the boycott over the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the trials were still held. Owolabi thought the boycott took away the importance of the meet. "It was just another meet," he said. "OWOLABI HAS ONE more meet left this summer, a July 3 invitational in Canada. After that meet he said he would spend the rest of the summer training and studying." "Things didn't go the way I hoped, but I learned a let that will help me later, Owlabi said. "I'm still young." A jumper doesn't hit his prime until he is 25. I'm 19." "All the men are in Europe and I'm going to summer school," he said. "I's pretty tough to go to men in Europe in summer school at the same time."
