Vin Lananna Last Quotations

A lot of the enthusiasm at U of O is built on its traditions. I hope to reconnect with that past enthusiasm. The wonderful men's track and field team generated a lot of enthusiasm last spring by winning the outdoor Pac-10 Championship. We hope the same energy will carry over into fall.

Everybody knows that Tommy is a wonderful athlete. I think last year is behind him and he's excited about the new year. If he can look at the indoor season as a means to an end, I believe he can turn it into a great positive for the outdoor season.

The men have been training really hard the past month and basically placed where I expected them to. I'm glad we had a meet with this level of competition early so we could identify what we need to work on. Galen had a good opener and has had a hard training cycle. We flagged him to back off the last mile to be a little cautious since it's his first race.
