Bond proposal
passes House, Senate
Carolyn Herold
NEWS EDITOR
The University of North Carolina Board of
Governors unanimously approved a $3.1 billion
bond referendum for proposed construction and
renovation of North Carolina's public universi-
ties and community colleges on May 19.
The bond was approved 49-0 in the Senate
and 112-1 in the House. This is the largest bond
referendum in North Carolina's history. If the
bond passes general election, $2.5 billion will
be allotted to the universities and $600 million
to the community colleges. ECU will receive
$190 million. Pitt Community College will re-
ceive $18 million.

A public presenta-
tion and reception on
the topic of "Extreme
Weather Events in
Eastern North
Carolina's Future" was
held at 7:30 p.m. last
Thursday night in
Hendrix Theatre.
The speech drew in
about 350 people. The
conference as a whole
included experts from
fields such as biology,
sociology, non-profit
groups and govern-
ment agencies. These
diverse groups shared
information they gath-
ered after hurricane
Floyd to try to help
control damege from
future storms.
The speaker, Dr.
Robert C. Sheets,
former director of the
National Hurricane
Center, has made over
200 flights through
hurricane eyes.
Sheets discussed the
cause and effects of
storm surge, storm
tracking, evacuation,
coastal development
and the problems of
subsidized property,
positive building strat-
egies and provided be-
fore and after slides.
In the last five years,
there have been a
record-setting number
of hurricanes that have
formed in the Atlantic
Ocean (41). This is re-
lated to increased rain-
fall in western Africa,
due to an increased
rainfall amount every
20-30 year.
According to Sheets,
a typical hurricane sea-
son goes as follows: In
June, most of the hur-
ricanes form in the
western Carribbean
and are weak and stay
parallel to the coast-
line. In July, hurri-
canes as far north as
North Carolina can
happen, but they are
infrequent. In August
and September, the
peak activity is
reached. In October,
the hurricanes are
once again weak, and
stay parallel to the
coast, and in Novem-
ber, the end of hurri-
cane season is reached.
The conflict of
people versus time
during an evacuation
was said to be the big-
gest cause of death
during a hurricane.
According to Sheets,
we need to do a better
Job of educating
people on evacuation
safety.
Sheets urged for all
homes in a high risk
area for hurricane
damage to be built to
withstand wind dam-
age. This would mean
changing how we
build new homes, and
retrofitting old homes
with safety devices
such as hipped roofs,
steel-reinforced con-

Larceny-A student reported that
several checks were stolen on or
around May 8 from his room in
Scott Hall where he resided dur-
ing spring semester. He was not
aware they were missing until May
1 when his bank notified him of a
check being cashed at a local re-

where a cell phone was stolen from
the Speight Building. The property
was recovered at the time of arrest.
Apprehension of a Burglary Sus-

in the women's restroom of the
Old Cafeteria Complex had been
damaged.
Miscellaneous Call-A staff mem-

May 24. GPD took the missing
person report. The parent advised
that he would contact the ECU
police when he hears from his
daughter.

crete and strapped roof trusses. Sheets also offered some recommen-
dations for battening down houses against wind damage. He said
tape over the windows is almost useless. Commercial window films
are also not effective during a hurricane; all doors and windows
should be covered with plywood instead.
Sheets said building and safety is key. He said that the style of the
home, with roofs that trap wind and double doors that open in-
ward, causes more problems than the construction. Hurricane clips
and straps did not work. Gable roofing held-up better. Florida passed
a law, effective in 2001, stating that all windows and doors must be
properly protected from high winds. Sheets suggested that the en-
tire East Coast take the same precautions.
According to Sheets, the National Flood Insurance Program is try-
ing to change its rates according to the amount of risk the insured
area is in. Currently, every time a house is knocked down, about one
out of three are replaced. There is no incentive to protect property.
He concluded with an emphasis on the importance of public edu-
cation of Hurricane Safety through the media.
"Until we're able to do a better job interpreting soil moisture lev-
els, we will continue to have problems making predictions in flood-
ing Sheets said.

Michael Jordan's golf tournament has raised
over $1.8 million.
OverSl billion
raised to benefit children
Carolyn Herold
NEWS EDITOR
The Michael Jordan Celebrity Golf Classic will
be held this year at Brook Valley Golf Course here
in Greenville from June 22-25. The tournament will
benefit the four Ronald McDonald Houses of North
Carolina (located in Greenville, Chapel Hill,
Durham and Winston-Salem). To date, the tourna-
ment has raised over $1.8 million.
The tournament began as the Eastern Carolina
Celebrity Golf Classic in 1894. The goal was to raise
enough money to build a Ronald McDonald
House in Greenville. Michael Jordan made his first
appearance in 1985, while he was a junior at the
University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, just
before embarking on his NBA career. In 1988, he
served as Honorary Chairman.
The tournament was renamed and the proceeds
started going out to all four Houses in North Caro-
lina in 1989.
"This tournament allows me to come back to
my home state and give something back to the
region Jordan stated.
The success of the tournament is due to the
support given by corporate sponsors. This year's
top sponsors are McDonalds, ALLTEL, Coca-Cola,
National Car Rental, Sam's Club, Sprint Pay Phone
Services, American Airlines, Hilton of Greenville
and the Outer Banks.
There are five different sponsorship levels that
offer exposure and playing spots: the platinum
level at $35,000, the gold level at $20,000, the
silver level at $10,000, the bronze level at $5,000
and tl)e benefactor level at $2,500. There are also
two new opportunities for sponsorship: the "A
Dollar Makes a Difference" Icon Card promotion,
which can be purchased for $1 a piece at area re-
tail stores, and the Tee Box sponsorship, which
allows sponsors to promote their products or ser-
vices to the participants and spectators on the golf
course during the tournament.
Volunteers are also a major contributing factor
to the success of the tournament. Over 1,000 vol-
unteers donate their time each year to the event.

PITTSBURGH-(U-WIRE)
Carnegie Mellon University be-
came a trendsetter in Pittsburgh
Monday by granting health ben-
efits to both same-sex and het-
erosexual partners of its employ-
ees. By taking this action, the
university has become the first of
the city's seven institutions of
higher learning to award health
benefits to domestic partners of
employees regardless of a legal
marriage. While the issue of
same-sex health benefits has been
cause for legal action and public
outcry at Pitt, CMU's governing
board voted 34-8 In favor of ex-
tending its policy to all partners
of employees who meet eligibil-
ity standards being determined
by the university.
CMU's vice president for uni-
versity relations, Don Hail, said
that the decision grew more from
employee equality rather than
sexual orientation.
"They saw it as equal compen-
sation for equal work Hail said.
Another factor that CMU
dealt with when considering this
proposal was competition.
"CMU competes on a national
level with some of the premier
universities in the United
States Hail said. "If you look
at the landscape of the institu-
tions we compete with, it's not
competitive to not offer these
advantages to employees

University leaders have to gain
approval from the general assem-
bly and voters in the November
General Election in order to pass
the bill. The universities and
community colleges are plan-
ning a campaign with the N.C.
Citizens for Business and Indus-
try (North Carolina's largest busi-
ness lobby) to help get the bond
passed.
Last summer, the proposal fell
apart when the House and Sen-
ate could not agree on the
amount to borrow. Many House
members refused to consider the
proposal without voter approval.
According to the Regional De-
velopment Services, the direct
impact of the construction
projects would be $694.4 million
in goods, services and earnings.
The indirect impact, resulting
from the first rounds of direct
impacts, would total $707.6 mil-
lion.
To ECU, this would mean
funding for the renovation and
expansion plans. On the fore-
front of the University's to do list
is the building of the $55.1 mil-
lion Science and Technology
Building, building a new Nurs-
ing, Allied Health and Develop-
mental Evaluation Complex
(which would replace the Rivers
and Belk Buildings and relocate
the nursing program to a loca-
tion near Pitt County Memorial
Hospital) at a cost of $46.9 mil-
lion. There would be $8 million
set aside for land acquisition.
If the bond passes, the money
would be issued over five years,
and paid back over 20. At the
peak of payments, during the
2006-07 fiscal year, lawmakers
would have to set aside $342
million to repay the bonds.

The Ronald McDonald House
is a "home away from home" for
the families of seriously ill chil-
dren that are being treated at
nearby hospitals. Each House is
set up like a normal home with
bedrooms, living areas, a kitchen,
laundry room and playroom. The
Greenville House has 18 bed-
rooms.
The first house was started by
Fred Hill, a Philadelphia Eagles
football player and his wife in
1973, when they learned their
daughter had leukemia. They
noticed several other families
going through the same thing in
Philadelphia, where they sought
treatment. The Philadelphia Eagles
and McDonalds teamed up with
the Children's Hospital of Philadel-
phia to form the first House.
There are currently over 200
Ronald McDonald Houses world-
wide. Each House is run by a local
nonprofit organization comprised
of medical community leaders,
McDonalds ownersoperators,
business, civic leaders and parent
volunteers. The program has over
20,000 volunteers that help with
all aspects of House operation.
These volunteers donate nearly
1 million hours of service a year.
The average length of stay at a
House is five to 14 days. Families
are asked to make a donation each
night ranging from $5-S20. No
one is turned away for an inabil-
ity to donate.
The Greenville House has
helped over 5,700 families since
its opening in 1987. They have
helped families from 70 North
Carolina counties, 41 states other
than North Carolina and 6 other
countries.

MY OPINION
Relief funding allocation ridiculous
The political season is starting to
heat up tremendously. Various can-
didates are running various cam-
paign ads saying why they should be
elected to this and why their oppo-
nent shouldn't be elected to that.
One of these ads struck my attention
the other day with its clear and sur-
prisingly messed up message.
In the ad, a well-dressed, middle-
to upper-class white female described
how this particular candidate came
to her aid after Hurricane Floyd
flooded her TWO homes. She went
on to praise the candidate's swift ac-
tion and the personal time he took
to ensure that she received whatever
aid she needed from the government.
Well, la-te-frickin-da. While this
candidate was running around
scrounging up government money
for this well-to-do woman, thou-
sands upon thousands of other
people weren't as fortunate.
In the midst of the flood, hundreds
of minority families had to live in
what was no more than a single-wide
trailer for weeks on end because the
government did not come to their
aid swiftly. But where were all the
middle- to upper-class white indi-
viduals who had their homes de-
stroyed? Oh, I forgot. FEMA and
North Carolina legislators were set-
ting them up in the Ramada rent free.
What a load of ca-ca.
I think the distribution of federal
money was nothing more than a
drop in the bucket for thousands of
North Carolina citizens who aren't
wealthy enough to just buy another
house after the other one they had
washed away. They depend on gov-
ernment assistance during times of
disaster, and they aren't getting what
they deserve.
The students of this university who
lost everything were far more lucky
than the residents of the state. We
had the university help guide us
through the recovery process each
step of the way. But for the rest of
Greenville's residents who didn't
have the almighty university fight-
ing for them, the aid received was
nothing more than the equivalent of
a ham sandwich and a cup of good
old Tar River water.
The candidate running that ad on
television should open his greedy
little eyes and see the obvious dis-
crimination taking place in the dis-
tribution of aid money. While that
well-to-do lady got everything re-
placed in less than a month, the state
still has hard-pressed minority fami-
lies struggling to get someone to ac-
tually talk to them on the federal aid
hot lines.
Wealthy white folks who undoubt-
edly contributed to a candidate's
campaign run around TV saying how
quick they got their money while
poor minority groups fight it out over
what they should already have. It
makes me sick. God bless the USA.

MY OPINION
Even though the summer does not officially begin
until June, we won't let that technicality stop us from
taking advantage of the hot weather and time off from
classes. Although there are students taking full loads
this summer, we want to remind everyone that there
are many things to do in Greenville when classes let
out in the afternoons.
The city of Greenville offers up various athletic clubs
and tennis courts, as well as various hiking and biking
trails located near Elm Street. If, however, the weather's
just too hot to handle, why not try out one of
Greenville's indoor activities? Go play pool at one of
the local pool halls, try roller skating at Sportsworld or
bowl a couple games at AMF East Carolina Lanes. Look-
ing for more excitement? Head out to Greenville Fun
Park and ride the go karts, or try a round of paintball
at East Carolina Paintball.
With all these options, one can surely find the per-
fect activity to add to a perfect summer day.
What really happened in Los Alamos
For those of you who do not know, a fire
recently broke out in Los Alamos, New Mexico
that burned more than 50,000 acres, forced
about 25,000 people to flee and left 405 fami-
lies homeless. This more than two-week old
fire is still not 100 percent contained. Some
disturbing facts have come out of the prelimi-
nary investigation into the fire. Certain people
involved in setting the fire have taken some
blame and the government is planning to take
the heat and the expense of this terrible event.
The purpose of the fire was to burn away
dried timber in a 1,000-acre section of the
National Park. This is a routine practice that is
meant to revive the environment and also to
reduce the chance of future wildfires.
The procedure involved requires that a
weather report be taken from the National
Weather Center, which also gives its recom-
mendations on whether or not to start the fire.
The weather report, which clearly showed that
starting the fire was a bad idea, was not yet
received when the fire was ignited.
The obvious question is why this was al-
lowed to happen.
The preliminary investigation into the fire
also revealed some more disturbing facts. Su-
perintendent Roy Weaver, who has taken re-
sponsibility for the fire, did not substantively
review the plan for the fire. In fact, the fire
was so poorly planned that when park offi-
cials made an emergency call for firefighters,
they were told to call back the next day. No-
body other than the people directly involved
even knew that the fire was being ignited.
Usual procedure would have called for
firefighters to stand by in case the fire was to
get out of hand because, as one official put it,
"fire is the most unpredictable and uncontrol-
lable of our natural disasters
The most dangerous and disturbing fact is
that the Los Alamos National Laboratory, the
nation's major nuclear lab also came under the
fire. Just how much damage was done remains
uncertain and preliminary reports conclude
that no radiation was leaked into the air. How-
ever, if I were living anywhere close to that lab,
I'm not so sure that I would trust these reports,
nor would I be looking forward to going home
anytime soon.
The total costs for the lab alone have been
estimated to be approximately $150 million
before the lab can reopen.
The main question now remains as to how
the victims involved should be repaid for their
losses. The White House has initiated meetings
with congressional leaders to determine the
best plan to compensate them. Preliminary
reports show that the total damage from the
fire, including the damages to be paid to the
victims, is close to $1 billion.
For now, officials have banned any further
controlled or prescribed fires from being set
even though park officials and scientists insist
"it is absolutely essential'that we inject fire back
into these ecosystems" (Dave Simon, South-
western director of the National Park Conser-
vation Association).
Setting a fire is never safe; the chance of the
fire getting out of control is always there. How-
ever, firefighters are usually also present, and
the National Weather Service must give its
opinion as well so that everybody will know
what to expect.
It is very apparent that several mistakes were
made in setting the fire by many of the offi-
cials involved. I believe that the government
should not delay repaying these victims more
than what is absolutely necessary.

MY OPINION
Petty's death brings reality check
The recent death of Adam Petty really got
me thinking about life and what it means. For
those of you who don't know. Petty was the
son of Kyle Petty and grandson of Lee Petty.
To those of us who watch racing on a weekly
basis, this is a major tragedy.
This guy was young and on the brink of fame
and fortune, and in the blink of an eye it was
all taken away from him. The sad truth is that
this could happen to anyone at any moment.
We go about our days sure that there will be a
tomorrow and avoid things we don't want to
do. I know most of us on campus are young
and don't think that this kind of thing could
happen to us, but it can.
To me, the most tragic thing about Petty's
death was the timing. It was Mother's Day
weekend. How do you think his mother felt
that day? She will never get to hold her son
again. That's got to be the worst feeling in the
world.
I guess what I am trying to say is that we
have to enjoy what we have. Make time for
friends and don't be afraid to make some new
ones. Most of all, don't forget your mother.
She might not be here tomorrow to tell you
one last time that she loves you. Don't stay
mad at loved ones, because one day, you might
wake up to regret it.

Inside Job by Don Henley
Emily Little
FEATURES EDITOR
Don Henley is back. When last
we heard a solo recording from
him it was 1989. That year the
former Eagles drummer brought
us a work of pure rock 'n' roll ge-
nius, The End of the Innocence,
with songs such as the title track,
"Boys of Summer and "Life in
the Fast Lane Since then mu-
sic has taken a back seat to his
family and various environmen-
tal projects, but this month he
returns to the charts with a new
album, Inside Job.
If you are listening for another
"Boys of Summer you won't
find it here. What you will find
is an older, more introspective
Henley who seems to have found
answers to all those questions he
asked over a decade ago, and this
is not necessarily a bad thing.
Although some of the songs
on this album, such as the sappy,
repetitive, never-ending "For My
Wedding could easily be
zapped right off the CD and
never missed, there are also a few
really nice tunes that never
would have come from the
young man who penned "Hotel
California
One such song is "Taking You
Home a slow bit of nostal,
that might
jerk a tear or
two from your
eye.
"I had a
good life he
says, "Before
you came I
had my
friends and
my freedom1
had my name
Still there was
sorrow and
emptines Till
you made me
glad Oh, in
this love I
found
strength I
never knew I
had
It sounds a
little cheesy to
the naked ear,
but Henley
manages to
pull it off
beautifully
with the help of a lilting melody
and a few backup singers. This

Balls-out "60 Minutes" producer Lowell Bergman sniffs a story when a former research biologist
from Brown & Williamson, Jeff Wigand, won't talk to him. When the company leans hard on
Wigand to honor a confidentiality agreement, he gets his back up. Trusting Bergman and despite
a crumbling marriage, he goes on camera for a Mike Wallace interview and risks anest for con-
tempt of. court. Westinghouse is negotiating to buy CBS, so CBS attorneys advise CBS news to
shelve the interview and avoid a Iwasuit. "60 Minutes" and CBS News bosses cave, Wigand's hung
out to dry, Begrman is comprimised, and the CEOs of Big Tobacco may get away with perjury.
Can the truth will out?
song might just melt you like a
marshmallow.
That doesn't mean he's forgot-
ten how to
rock. "No-
body Else in
the World
But You
"Inside Job"
and "They're
not Here,
They're not
Coming are
fin all hearty
rock songs.
Add to that
"Workin' It
the one song
that has al-
ready re-
ceived radio
play and
closely re-
s e m b I e s
Henley's
former ef-
forts, and
you'll re-
member why
you like him
so much. In
"They're not
Here, They're not Coming he
even manages to work in Rocky
the Flying Squirrel and
McNuggets.
Henley says himself in a video
that accompanies the album
that he never really sang these
songs before hitting the record-
ing studio. The end result is that
the producer had a little too
much fun with the mixing
board.
The hard edge of Henley's
usual guitar riffs was softened on
this album and replaced with
clear, crisp, computer gimmicks.
That doesn't mean the songs
aren't still good, but sometimes
you might find yourself wishing
you could just hear the tune
without ail the interference.
So for those of you who have
been holding your breath for
Henley's triumphant return, you
may be a little disappointed.
Overall the album shows a great
deal of potential and an occa-
sional spark of true musical tal-
ent, but fails to measure up to
the expectations held to a
former member of one of the
definitive rock bands of all time.
But that doesn't mean you won't
like it.

Stephen Schramm
SPORTS EDITOR
For the second straight year,
the ECU baseball season ends
on a sour note. Like the 1999
campaign, the 2000 season
ended at the hands of a team
from Louisiana, playing on
their home field. Like in 1999
the Pirates finish with 46
wins, a CAA Championship
and a bad taste in their
mouths.
The Pirates fell to Louisi-
ana-Lafayette Sunday 8-5 in
the NCAA Regional, ending
their season.
The loss came after a week-
end that the Pirates spent
with their backs to the wall.
On Friday the team defeated
Marist 12-3. On Saturday,
ECU fell to the Rajun' Cajuns
5-3, putting them on the
verge of elimination. Later in
the day the Pirates rallied to
squeak by the Red
Foxes again to
stay alive and ad-
vance to Sunday's
Match up with
Louisiana-
Lafayette.
Friday saw the
Pirates notch
their most con-
vincing win of
the weekend. The
Pirates fell behind
early when the
Red Foxes took a
3-2 lead in the
fourth.
"They put some
pressure on us in
the middle
frames and we
came out trying
to get the lead
back and take control said
Head Coach Keith LeClair.
"(Marist) is a hard nosed team
and will play all nine innings.
They don't quit. We knew
that coming in because I have
coached against them in a re-
gional before. "The experi-
ence paid off because the Pi-
rates soon bolted ahead of
Marist in the bottom of the
fourth scoring four runs.
Freshman pitcher Sam
Narron shut the Red Foxes
down from that point on and
pitched seven innings to
record his sixth win.
"1 was pretty close to tak-
ing Sam (Narron) off the
mound but he really battled
"Any time you
can get your
starter into the
seventh inning
on a hot day
like this you
have to be
happy
Keith LeClair
Head Baseball Coach
back today LeClair said.
"Any time you can get your
starter into the seventh in-
ning on a hot day like this
you have to be happy. He
wasn't throwing his best stuff
but he played hard and that's
a sign of a good pitcher
The Pirates piled on five
runs in the bottom of the sev-
enth inning to cement the
victory and earn a spot in the
winner's bracket on Saturday
and a match-up with host
Louisiana-Lafayette.
One reason the Pirates were
about to get the convincing
victory over Marist was the
performance of second
baseman Nick Schnabel.
Schnabel went 5-for-5
against the Red Foxes and
racked up two RBIs.
"I got a couple of good
bounces but all I was really
trying to do was help the
team anyway I could
Schnabel said.
The Pirates got their most
convincing victory of the
weekend despite the oppres-
sive heat that had been such
a concern leading up to the
regional.
"The heat was a lot like
back home Narron said.
"It's just the humidity just
wears on you
On Saturday, the Pirates
took an early 3-1 lead after
three innings. The Rajun'
Cajuns answered in the bot-
tom of the fifth, scoring three
runs. They added one more
run in the bottom of the sev-
enth and the Pirates had no
answer as Louisiana-
Layfayette won 5-3.
The loss sent the Pirates
into the loser's bracket where
they would again face Marist.
This time the Red Foxes
would not go down without
a fight.
ECU would go ahead 3-0
through three innings. Marist
answered by scoring four runs
in the fourth inning and three
runs in the sixth to go up 7-3.
The Pirates came back to
knot the game at seven,
thanks to a four-run eighth
inning. The inning began
with a pair of doubles by
ECU's Chad Tracy and Joseph
Hastings. After a wild pitch
that scored a run, Eric Bakich
grounded out, scoring an-
other run. Finally a Bryant
Ward single and a Marist
throwing error allowed ECU
to tie the game at seven and
help send the game into ex-
tra innings.
Ward would play hero again
in the 11th inning when he
singled scoring shortstop Lee
Delfino.
On Sunday, The Pirates
went ahead 3-2 after the first
inning, but the Rajun' Cajuns
would take control with a
four-run third inning. Louisi-
ana would add two more runs
in the top of the fourth and
the Pirates were unable to
counter. The Pirates added
one run in the fifth and one
in the eighth but in the end
the Cajuns were too much.

Track teams wind up season
Pirates brave weather
at ECACIC4A meets
Stephen Schramm
SPORTS EDITOR
Braving the chilly and wet
conditions in the Northeast, the
ECU men's and women's track
teams managed to close their
seasons on high notes at the
IC4A in Princeton N.J. and the
ECAC Outdoor Championships
in Harrisonburg N.J.
The men's team placed eighth
overall while the women placed
12th.
"1 am pleased with our eighth
place finish because it is always
our goal to finish in the top 10
said Head Men's Track Coach Bill
Carson. "It never got above 53
degrees all weekend and rained
most of today.
"Despite the weather we had
some very good performances
he said. "With the weather, we
did not improve our times and
that might have cost us a trip to
nationals

The men's squad earned the
only victory, taking home first
in the 4x400 meter relay. The
team of James Alexander,
Lawrence Ward, Darrick Ingram
and Damon Davis earned the
victory with a time of 3:05.86.
Their time was over a second off
of the IC4A record in the event
of 3:04.11 set by the Pirates in
1999.
The team continued its suc-
cess with the quarter-mile in the
Open 400. Ingram placed second
in 46.46. Davis placed third
while Ward took home seventh.
All three earned All-East honors
in both the 4x400 and the Open
400.
Senior hurdler Lynn Stewart
placed fourth and earned All-
East honors in the 400 meter in-
termediate hurdles.
Meanwhile, the ECU 4x100
team earned a trip to the finals
but dropped the baton and did
not finish.
Sophomore Darren Tuitt fin-
ished 16th in the 200 meters. In
the 800 meters, freshman Ricky
Bell placed 19th.
Justin England placed seventh
in the finals of the 10,000
meters with a time of 30:35.05.
England's performance marks
the first time that a distance run-
ner has ever scored for an ECU
team in an IC4A Championship.
"We had a lot of coaches come
up to us and say that they're
glad to see that our program is
expanding said Head Cross
Country Coach Len Klepack.
"We have a strong tradition in
the sprint events but its good to
see that were building the dis-
tance program and having suc-
cess in something other than
the 400
On the women's side it was
the sprinters who led a balanced
attack for the Lady Pirates. Jun-
ior Rasheca Barrow took home
second place in the 100 meters
and seventh in the 200 to earn
All-East honors in both events.
"Rasheca had a tremendous
meet said Head Women's Track
Coach Matt Munson. "She got
out hard in the first 30 meters
of the race. She beat everybody
at the gun and was able to run
instead of having to play catch
up
Fellow sprinters Ayana
Coleman and Kiona Kirkpatrick
also left their mark on the event.
Coleman placed third in the 400
intermediate hurdles while
Kirkpatrick took home seventh
in the 400 to cap a strong show-
ing by the Lady Pirates' sprint-
ers.
"A lot of that is due to them
having experience advancing
through the preliminary for-
mat Munson said. "Once again
it's upperclassmen experience
shining through
The relay squads for the Lady
Pirates did not advance to their
respective finals. However, the
4x800 squad of Fran Lattie, Kay
Livick, Abby Hayes and Lauren
Chadwick did turn in their sea-
son-best time.
A pair of jumpers also received
All-East honors. Toni Kilgore
placed seventh in the triple
jump, while Toshima Dabbsalso
placed seventh in the long jump.
