Men's Javelin

Breaux Greer, who has recently signed a contract with adidas which should allow him to concentrate on training full-time, should be the class of this field. He won the Olympic Trials last year and made the Olympic final. Not bad for a guy from Northeast Louisiana. Greer, who now trains in Athens with the burgeoning throws group under Georgia assistant Don Babbitt, has been consistent this year, with at least three meets over 80 meters (262-5, for you knuckleheads).

The exciting twist in this competition is the entry of American Record holder Tom Pukstys, who has not competed this year to our knowledge (if anyone else knows to the contrary, please e-mail: edit@trackandfieldnews.com).

3rd? Well, no one is even near the World Champs qualifying standard, so the author will not take the futile effort. Sorry. Hometown fans will be cheering for John Stiegeler, who won the NCAA title for the Ducks three weeks ago.
