Coffey shows off Relays; McKnight wins long jump
By JIM SMALL
Sports Writer
Carla Coffey got a chance to do a little showing off at the Kansas Relays last weekend.
The first-year coach of the KU women's track team is recruiting her first group of high school prospects and a number of recruits accepted Coffey's offer to spend their Easter weekend watching the Relays.
One place where the Jayhawks won't need much help in the future is in the long jump.
"WE HAD A GRL call all the way up here from Mississippi with her parents to watch the Relays," Coffey said. "I'm very excited about recruiting. We are looking to get a little more talent into the program. I think we need a broader base and a little more depth in the program."
Sophomore Tudie McKnight was the only Jayhawk to capture first place honors in the Rails as she jumped 19 off, brought her the crown in the long run.
Marlene Harmon, the 18-year-old from the Los Angeles Naturite Club班 with the heptaphnia Thursday. She had a heap of 19% hair entry into the final lump.
BUT McKNIGHT saved her best for last and leaped her personal best on her final attempt.
"I had to go for it." McKnight said of her final jump. "Coach Coffey said when it comes down to the wire anything goes, so I went for it."
Although McKnight was the only winner for Kansas. Coffev said that she
was very happy with the rest of the Jayhawks' performances.
"This was my first Relays and I was real excited and the girls were real exited," Coffey said. "I think we had a tough season and said that the way the season has gone no far."
MERLENE OTTEY of Nebraska was named the meet's Outstanding Female Performer by way of her first place finishes in the 100 and 200-meter dashes, both in meet records. Ottey was also part of Nebraska's 440 relay team that broke a meet record with a 45.40 first-place showing.
Other Relay's records were broken in the javelin, the spintm relay relay, the 800 meter run, the mile relay, the discs and the 400 meter intermediate hurdles.
Oklahoma broke two of those records with a 3:45.3 showing in the mile relay and a 1:43.44 effort in the sprint medley. Leann Learn of Oregon set a record in the 800 with a time of 2:01.30 and Dana Olsen of Houston broke the Relay's javelin record with a throw of 160-10.
Karen McDonald of Oregon set a meet record in the disc with a throw of 167-10. The 400 intermediate hurdles record was broken by Sandy Myers, a native of Little River, Kan, and now of Lake City, WI, Tristan Club, with a run of $8.80.
Kansas has already qualified entrants to the national championship in six events and added one more Friday when Becky McGranahan tossed the discus 158-9, good enough for third place in the Relays.
"BECKY HAS BEEN throwing consistent all year," Coffey said.

Rene Nickes of Oklahoma gave it all she had in the high jump Saturday afternoon at the Kansas Relays, but it wasn't quite enough. Nickles finished fifth in the event, which was won by Sharon Burrill of Nebraska with a jump of 5-10.
Boston race record falls to new winner
BOSTON(UP1)-Both Bill Rodger, the favorite, and his record were beaten in the Boston Marathon yesterday by a Japanese runner, Toshihiko Seko.
Seko ran the famous course in 2:09,26,
brooding Baker's 1979 record by one
second. Seko finished second in that
match but the third that queened that
entered and did not win.
Through an interpreter, Seko apologized to Rodgers for breaking the record and explained, to the amusement of the crowd, that he took care of good "right about in front of the Bill Rodgers (sporting goods) store."
Craig Virgin, of Lebanon, ill,
finished second and Rodgers was third.
Rodgers, a four-time winner of the
2016 season, race the past three years.
Allison Roe, a New Zealand native, nipped favorite Patti Catalo to win the women's division. Her time of 2:26.48 beat the record by nearly eight minutes, and was just one minute off the world record.
"I never had the lead at all, not until the end," Roe said. "What I had planned was to try and go with the leaders till about 18 to 20 miles, but Patti got away from me at the halfway mark.
"I sort of pulled her in with about two miles to go."
How to make your last two years of college mean even more.
Take the Army ROTC Two-Year Program.
If you've just about completed your second year of college, and you're planning on two more, it's not too late to take Army ROTC.
You start the program with six-weeks of Basic Camp (you'll be paid for it) between your sophomore and junior years.
Then it's back to school in the fall. Learning how to become an Army
officer while you're working on your college degree. Earning an extra $100 a month, up to ten months a year.
And two years later, you'll graduate with your degree, your commission as an Army officer, and some real experience at leading and managing people.
The last two years of college mean a lot.Take the Army ROTC Two-Year Program and you can make them mean a lot more.
