Two sprint powers are expected to dominate the Big Eight track sprint lanes this weekend at Norman-NU's Charlie Greene and host Oklahoma's sprint corps.
Greene, Nebraska's senior speedster, is favored to capture his third consecutive 100-200 sprint double. He currently holds the conference records of 9.3 and 20.8.
THE SELF-ACCLAIMED "super-satellite" geared Greene set those standards last year, more-or-less uncontested—and before the appearance of several other dashmen who are present this year.
Greene may think he's seeing double as he enters the blocks Saturday. Running nearby will be look-alike twins from Oklahoma, Glen and Wayne Long, and both have duplicated Greene's best of 9.5.
Adding to possible confusion at the finish tape will be KU's sprint duo of Ben Olison and George Byers, both 9.5 dashmen. Though Byers' forte is hurdling, and Ollison is expected to fare better in the 220 and relay anchors, they will have to help split up the OUNU power struggle.
"We have a chance to break up OU's and NU's domination of the sprints this year," KU track coach Bob Timmons said earlier, this year.
AND THE Jayhawks will have to cause some juggling in the 100 final to help KU's point gathering, in addition to high finishes in the 220 and the two relays.
It is in these areas that Olison will be put to his true test. In the furlong, he has defending champ Greene to contend with and another Sooner speedster—George Aldredge, one of the nation's top prep sprinters two years ago and current Big Eight leader with 21.0.
Aldredge will then join the Long twins and Bill Calhoun in the 440-yd relay, an event where OU has posted the conference's quickest time ever (40.3). Anchoring NU's quartet that has posted 40.5 will be Greene and Olison will handle the final baton chore for KU.
But Olison's most crucial, and decisive carry will come in the mile relay, with the team championship possibly hanging in the balance.
Again, OU's stable of sprinters makes itself evident with the conference's all-time best aggregate of 3:08.4. That time is a second faster than KU's or NU's best.
BUT OLISON has defeated OU's Calhoun on every meeting this year and may hold a psychological edge.
Calhoun is expected to retain his open 440 title as Olison is not entered.
