COACHING STAFF Junior Games. The men finished tied for third at the Pac-10 championships as Primm and Greg Woepse captured individual titles. Several athletes competed at NCAAs and earned All-Americna honors as the men finished 37th as a team. Maynard also coached then freshman hammer thrower, Ida Storm, to double All-American honors in the weight throw and hammer in 2011.

MIKE MAYNARD Director of Track & Field/Throws 4th Season Mike Maynard enters his first season as the UCLA Director of Track and field overseeing the men’s and women’s programs following three seasons as men’s head coach as well as the throws coach for both the men’s and women’s squads. Prior to coming to UCLA, Maynard was head coach/throws coach at Boise State for nine years. Last season, the men’s track and field team had much success. At the Pac-12 Championships, the Bruin men finished fourth overall with 86 points as Alec Faldermeyer and redshirt Matthew Kosecki captured conference titles in their respective events. The men’s team finished 17th overall at the NCAA Championships, led by impressive performances from three sophomores - Mike Woepse(2nd in pole vault), Alec Faldermeyer (3rd in hammer); and Marcus Nilsson(6th in decathlon), which earned all three first-team All-America honors. The 4x100m relay of Jamal Alston, Maxwell Dyce, R.J. Frasier and Laijon White earned second-team All-America honors (16th) along with discus thrower Matthew Kosecki (10th). Derek Eager (javelin) and Dyce (200m) earned honorable mention All-America honors in their respective events. None of the athletes competing at NCAAs for the men’s team were seniors. In the NCAA indoor Championships, the Bruins were represented by sophomores Alec Faldermeyer, Mike Woepse and Marcus Nilsson and freshman Dustin Fay. In the pole vault, Woepse finished 14th overall and earned second-team USTFCCCA All-American honors. In the 5000m, Fay did not race due to an injury. Faldermeyer placed fifth in the 35-lb weight throw and picked up the third first-team All-American honor of his career. Nilsson finished eleventh in the heptathlon and earned the first All-American (2nd team) of his career. The 2011 season was highlighted by double All-American as a freshman, Alec Faldermeyer (weight/hammer) and standout half-miler Cory Primm (1:44.71, new school record). Faldermeyer also won the 2011 USATF Junior National hammer crown and a gold medal at the PanAm Junior Games. Maynard also coached Derek Eager, a redshirt during the 2011 season, to the USATF Jr. National javelin crown and a spot in the PanAm

In his first year in charge of the men’s program (2010), the Bruins found much success. During the indoor and outdoor season, UCLA athletes posted two school records and four marks on the all-time top-10 list. Cory Primm set the school record in the 800m (1:45.70), while the DMR team broke the indoor mark (9:31.70). The 4x100m relay, Primm, Scott Crawford (800m) and Dylan Knight (steeple) each competed at the NCAA Outdoor meet, with Primm placing fifth to earn All-American honors. The 4x100m relay also earned All-American honors after advancing to the relay final at Outdoors. Three throwers redshirted the 2010 season, while others battled injuries throughout the year. Bo Taylor, Nigel Davies, Tom Nagengast and Mark Weber all competed in the post-season. In his nine years as the head coach at Boise State, Maynard led a program which produced several historic events - back-to-back (2004 and 2005) national championships by Gabe Wallin in the men’s javelin, over 50 new school record performances and 30 All-American accolades. The Broncos enjoyed unprecedented success behind Maynard’s direction. During the 2009 season, the men’s team won the WAC Indoor Championship, finished 27th at the NCAA Indoor Championships and 25th at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. The women’s team placed 19th at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The top individual highlight was Eleni Kafourou becoming the first female student-athlete at Boise State to win a NCAA National Championship (long jump). Along with Kafourou’s national title, Boise State earned a total of seven NCAA All-America awards in track and field that year. Boise State also made its presence known at the national level with Maynard at the helm with four straight top 25 finishes for the men’s team at the NCAA National Outdoor Championships. The Bronco men were 16th at the 2006 NCAA National Outdoor Championships, 14th in 2005, 15th in 2004 and 24th in 2003. In 2009, the Bronco men finished 25th at the NCAA Outdoor meet.

National Champions. Maynard’s coaching resume also includes a twoyear stint as the assistant strength and conditioning coach at Arizona, where he worked with the Wildcat football program as well as being responsible for the Arizona track and field, swimming and tennis teams. He began his collegiate coaching career at Mesa Community College (Ariz.) where he was the assistant track and field coach from 1982-84, and in 1987. Maynard was also instrumental in bringing a world-class facility to Bronco Track & Field. During his first two years leading the Broncos, Maynard and Boise State were successful in purchasing a world championship caliber track and helped construct the building to put it in. The Mondo track was used by USA Track and Field and the Georgia Dome for the national indoor championships. The building is the Idaho Sports Center located in the Idaho Center complex in Nampa, Idaho. The track was purchased with a $250,000 cash gift from John Jackson, President of Jacksons Food Stores in Meridian, Idaho. Boise State has hosted several major meets, including six WAC Indoor Championships. The facility hosted its first national meet in 2005 with the USA Indoor Master’s Championships. Boise State has submitted bids to host future NCAA Indoor National Championships. Outside the collegiate world, Maynard has coached a World Champion, five different Olympians, a Pan American gold medalist, five USA Track and Field Champions and three American Junior Champions. One of Maynard’s former athletes Tony Washington (1990-96), won the World Championship in the discus in 1999. Washington also won the gold medal in the discus at the 1991 Pan American Games along with five USA National Championships. Maynard is currently an Executive Committee member of the United States Track Coaches Association and the NCAA Division I Track and Field Executive Committee. Maynard was also the head coach for the USA Track and Field team in its dual meet against Germany in 1996. He has served USA Track and Field as the Regional Decathlon Chairman, the United States Olympic Committee as an Elite Throws Clinician, and has been the lead throws clinician for the USA/Visa Decathlon team. Maynard resides in Valencia with his wife, Dee. Their daughter Allison (21) is a junior at Boise State and their son Michael (19) attends College of the Canyons.

Maynard guided Bronco student-athletes to over 70 individual WAC Championships and over 90 marks on Boise State’s all-time top three performance lists. Maynard came to Boise State following an outstanding assistant coaching career at the University of Arizona. He was the associate head track and field coach for the Wildcat program for 13 years prior to joining the Broncos. While coaching at Arizona, Maynard guided 32 individual NCAA Division I All-Americans, including three NCAA

COACHING STAFF In Beijing, Bolden led the American women to, at the time, their third-highest medal count (23) in U. S. Olympic history, and the most since the 1992 Barcelona Games. Bolden helped coach Bruin greats Dawn Harper (gold, 100m hurdles), Sheena Johnson (bronze, 400m hurdles) and Monique Henderson (gold, 4 X 400m relay) to Olympic glory.

JEANETTE BOLDEN Women’s Head Coach/Sprints 20th Year UCLA ‘83 Leading her young UCLA team in 2012 to the program’s highest NCAA Outdoor placement since 2009, Jeanette Bolden in 2013 begins her 20th season as the Bruin women’s track & field head coach. This season she takes on additional important responsibilities, including directing the men’s sprints and hurdles and overseeing the program’s academic progress and success. Bolden’s accomplishments as a collegiate head coach, U. S. Olympic head coach and gold-medal winning U. S. Olympic athlete are unmatched in the world of track & field. As the Bruin women’s head coach since 1994, she has led UCLA to three NCAA team championships, the 2004 NCAA Outdoor and the 2000/2001 NCAA Indoor titles, the first women’s or men’s national indoor track & field crowns in school history. She directed the Bruin women to the first two NCAA West Region Championships (2003/2004); ten Pac-10 titles, including eight consecutive from 1997-2004 and an impressive 74-7 dual meet record. The Bruins have been rated the nation’s top dual meet team on nine occasions. As UCLA’s head coach, she has instructed four Bruins to six NCAA Outdoor individual championships – Nicole Leach (2007/2009 400m hurdles), Monique Henderson (2005 400m), Sheena Johnson (2003/2004 400m hurdles) and Joanna Hayes (1999 400m hurdles). Since 1994, Bolden has coached over 50 UCLA All-Americans in the sprints, hurdles and relays. Senior Turquois Thompson has placed second the last two years in the NCAA Outdoor 400m hurdles and last season ran a personal-best 55.28, No. 7 all time in Pac-12 history. She has been the conference 400m hurdles champion two of the last three years. At the 2012 NCAA Outdoor Championships, the Bruins’ 4 X 400M relay (freshman Ally Courtnall, sophomore Breyonna Hunter, freshman Katie Reid, sophomore Tatum Souza) earned Honorable Mention All-America honors. In 2006, Bolden earned one of the highest honors of her distinguished coaching career when she was named the U. S. women’s track & field head coach for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China. She was the first head coach in U. S. Olympic history to have won an Olympic medal as an athlete. At the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, Bolden earned a gold medal on the U. S. women’s 4 X 100m relay and placed fourth in the 100m.

2013 Track & Field Media Guide

In 2012, Bolden’s UCLA senior class had over a 90% graduation rate. Four Bruin track and field women’s athletes (junior distance runner Katja Goldring, pole vaulters sophomore Tasha Kolbo and junior Liz Goodrich and sophomore thrower Ida Storm) were named to All-Academic teams by the U.S. Track & Field/Cross Country Coaches Association for success in the classroom and on the track during the 2012 outdoor season. Athletes who competed at the NCAA preliminary rounds or the NCAA Championships and had gradepoint-averages above 3.25 were eligible for the All-Academic teams. Fourteen UCLA women’s track & field athletes were named to the 2012 Pac-12 All-Academic team, highlighted by Goodrich, sophomore distance runner Rachel Butler and senior distance runner Taryn Pastoor earning second-team honors. At the end of the 1993 season, then-UCLA women’s track & field head coach Bob Kersee asked to be relieved of his head coaching duties and reassigned to the Bruin staff. There was only one logical choice to replace Kersee, and that was Bolden, an Olympic gold medal winner and All-American sprinter at UCLA. Bolden has just completed her second year as a Bruin assistant coach, specializing in the sprints and hurdles, when she was named UCLA’s head coach. Coaching Honors In December 2010, Bolden was inducted into the U.S. Track & Field/Cross Country Coaches’ Association (USTFCCA) Hall of Fame. In 2004, she swept every women’s collegiate coaching honor and was named ‘Coach of the Year’ by the USTFCCA in the National, West Region and Pac-10 categories. On Feb. 13, 2004, Bolden was presented the prestigious C. Vivian Stringer Award, an accolade which is presented to a woman who has experienced outstanding achievement as a coach - exhibiting a high standard of propriety, imagination and innovation as a character builder in the tradition of great teacher-coaches. She has also been named the USTCA West Region Women’s Coach of the Year on nine occasions, as well as Pac-10 Women’s Coach of the Year on 10 occasions. Bolden has served on a number of NCAA and track & field boards and has been an assistant coach for the World Indoor and Outdoor Championships. In 1998 she was named the USOC Track & Field Developmental Coach of the Year. In 1994, Bolden served as an assistant coach for the West squad at the Olympic Festival in St. Louis, MO and in 2006, she served as the head coach for the 2006 World Cup, which was held in Greece. Bolden has coached several of the top sprinters in NCAA history during her time at UCLA, most notably NCAA Champions Monique Henderson, Sheena Johnson and Nicole Leach. In 2005, Henderson capped off her NCAA career with a win in the 400m at the NCAA Outdoor, the first individual title of her collegiate career. She blazed her way through the season, winning the Pac-10, West Region and NCAA titles, ending

her career with nine All-America honors. Her accomplishments helped her garner the Pac-10 and Mondo West Region Women’s Athlete of the Year awards. Henderson was a finalist for the Honda Award, given annually to the nation’s top female student-athlete. She ranked third in the country and 10th in the world that season in the 400m. Henderson won gold medals as a member of the U. S. 4 x 400m relay squad that took first-place at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004 and the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008. Johnson won two NCAA 400m hurdles crowns during her time at UCLA, setting a collegiate record in her final year (52.95, 2009). She won three West Region titles and nine Pac-10 crowns (three on a relay and six individual) during her career and was a 15-time All-American. Johnson competed at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004 and just missed a medal, finishing fourth in the intermediate hurdles. In 2008 at Beijing, she earned a Silver medal in the 400m hurdles. Leach made a name for herself in the 400m hurdles on the collegiate, national and world scene, winning her first NCAA title during her sophomore season and placing second in 2008. She capped off her Bruin career in 2009 with her second NCAA 400m hurdles crown. Leach competed for the U.S. at the 2007 World Championships, advancing to the semifinal round and competed at the U.S. Olympic Trials in June of 2008. As an athlete at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, Bolden earned a gold medal on the U.S. 400m relay team and placed fourth in the 100m. She was also a member of the 1980 U.S. Olympic team that did not compete in Moscow. At UCLA from 1981-83, Bolden was a five-time All-American. In 1982, she helped lead the Bruins to their first NCAA Outdoor championship, by placing second (11.12) in the 100m and running on UCLA’s 400m relay that finished third (44.02). At the 1981 Nationals, Bolden placed third in the 100m (11.28) and ran on the Bruins’ 400m (second, 44.49) and 800m medley (second, 1:37.41) relays. In 1983 (UCLA’s second NCAA Outdoor team title), she injured a hamstring before Nationals and did not compete. On the all-time Bruin sprint charts, she is still tied for fourth in the 100m (11.16, with an 11.12w). Throughout her track career, Bolden was considered one of the top female sprinters in the U.S. In 1986 she tied the then-world indoor record (6.54) in the 60y dash at the GTE/Times Indoor meet at the Los Angeles Forum and in 1983, Bolden set the former 60y world record indoor mark (6.60) at the Dallas Times Herald Meet. She still holds the collegiate women’s indoor mark in the 50m (6.13) and 50y. In 1985, Bolden ran the second leg on the American-record setting sprint medley relay (1:36.79). Ranked No. 9 in the country in 1988, she was trying to make her third straight U.S. Olympic team that year when she tore an Achilles tendon at the Trials, requiring surgery. Personal Life She is executive director and coordinator of the Jeanette Bolden Asthma and Allergy Track Clinic and a member of the Board of Directors for the Asthma and Allergy Foundation. Most recently, she was named a coordinator for the Marathon Kids Foundation at UCLA, an organization that gets volunteers and participation from the Bruin women’s track & field team. Bolden and her family owns the famous 27th Street Bakery in Los Angeles and with her husband of 23 years, Al, they have two children, twins Anthony and Kimberly, age 11.

FOREST BRADEN

JOHNNY GRAY

Long Distance 4th Season

Middle Distance/Hurdles 4th Season

Forest Braden enters his fourth year with the Bruins where he coaches the long distance runners. Prior to coming to Westwood, he spent the 2008 season as a volunteer assistant with Gonzaga University where he worked closely with standout distance coach Pat Tyson in recruiting and facilitating training sessions.

Johnny Gray enters his fourth season as a member of the Bruin coaching staff where he coaches the middle distance runners. A four-time U.S. Olympian, Gray brings a wealth of experience at the college, national and international levels.

In 2012, Braden worked with a strong group of distance runners. Redshirt freshman Dustin Fay ran an indoor school record of 13:49 in the 5000m to qualify for the NCAA National Indoor Championship. He also qualified for the NCAA Preliminary Round outdoors. Junior Katja Goldring ran the second fastest 10,000m in school history with a time of 34:41.82 and placed 14th in the Preliminary Round of the NCAA Championships. Freshman Kelsey Smith ran a new personal record (16:41) to qualify for the Preliminary round of the NCAAs in the 5000m. For the first time, redshirt senior Kent Morikawa ran the steeplechase, placing fifth at the Pac-12 Championships and qualifying for the NCAA Preliminary round. Freshman Merissa Kado is tenth all-time at UCLA in the steeplechase after running a time of 10:58.48. Freshman Lane Werley ran one of the top junior times in the country in the 5000m (13:56). At the USATF Junior Championships, the Bruins were represented by Kado in the steeplechase, Nathaniel Cushing-Murray in the 10k and Werley, Annie Mooney and Bronte Golick in the 5000m. Werley and Cushing-Murray both finished fourth to lead the Bruin squad at the meet. In 2011, the Bruins had two sub-9-minute steeplechasers in Jake Matthews (8:57.55) and David McDonald (8:59.30) as both scored at Pac-10s. The long distance runners thrived under Braden’s leadership in his first season at UCLA as Dylan Knight led the way in the steeplechase. Knight ran a lifetime-best of 8:43.68 to move to fifth all-time in UCLA history, competed at the NCAA Outdoor meet and was the Pac-10 runner-up in the event. Spencer Knight (8:57.95) and David McDonald (9:10.80) also ran lifetime-best marks in the steeple. Marco Anzures moved to fifth alltime in the 10,000m (29:00.21) and also ran a lifetime-best of 14:07.69 in the 5000m. Alex Crabill was a provisional qualifier for the indoor meet in the 3000m (8:03.07) and also ran the No. 6 marathon time in UCLA history (2:20.38). Prior to his coaching stint at Gonzaga, Braden was a three-time All-American runner for coach Mike Maynard at Boise State from 2002-2007, earning accolades in indoor and outdoor track as well as cross country. He also won seven Western Athletic Conference titles as a Bronco. Braden also ran for Team Indiana Elite for one year and placed in the top-10 in five USATF Championship meets.

2013 Track & Field Media Guide

With an impressive recruiting class to work with in 2012, Gray was able to bring along this group of young middle distance runners for a successful season. Redshirt freshman Sam Demello developed into a promising runner in the 800m with consistent times of 1:50. Sophomore Paulsey Pettway ran a 2:08 which could project her into the NCAAs this year, and Rachael Butler reached her goal of a sub five-minute 1500m (4:27). Junior Turquoise Thompson ran a lifetime best in the 400m hurdles (55) and finished second at the NCAA finals earning All-American honors. Thompson went on to finish in sixth place at the 2012 U. S. Olympic trials, missing a trip to London by just three spots. Despite competing with a injury, sophomore Philip MacQuitty recorded a lifetime best of 3:58 in the 1500m. The 2011 season was a big one for Gray as he coached Cory Primm to an 800m mark of 1:44.71. That time broke Primm’s own UCLA school record, set a new senior class record and it was one of the top 10 fastest times in collegiate history. He also achieved the Olympic “A” standard in the event. Primm ended his Bruin career with All-American honors at the NCAA Outdoor meet as he finished sixth overall. In his first year with the Bruins, the middle distance runners had much success, highlighted by Primm. The then-junior broke the school and junior class record in the 800m (1:45.70) in the semifinal round at the NCAA Outdoor meet, and then went on to earn All-American honors with a fifth-place finish in the final. Scott Crawford ran a lifetime-best of 1:47.78 (previous best 1:49.94) for the seventh-fastest mark all-time at UCLA and advanced to the semifinal round of the 800m at the NCAA Outdoor meet. Seven men posted lifetime-best marks in the 800m during the outdoor season, while three posted personal-bests during indoors. Primm was a provisional qualifier in the 800m during indoors, and also ran on the school record-breaking and All-American DMR team. Marlon Patterson had a huge year as well, running lifetime-bests in the 1500m (3:42.13) and in the indoor mile (4:00.45). He also earned All-American honors with the school record-breaking DMR.

No stranger to success as an athlete, Gray is a four-time Olympian having competed in the 1984, 1988, 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games. At the Barcelona Games, he earned a bronze medal in the 800m and won gold at the 1987 and 1999 PanAm Games. He received the U.S. Olympic Committee’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007 and was a USATF Hall of Fame inductee in 2008. Gray is also a Hall of Fame inductee for Santa Monica College, Mt. SAC and Madison Square Garden/Melrose Games. He still holds the American Record in the outdoor 800m (1:42.60) and indoor 800m (1:45.00), and set world records in the outdoor 600m (1:12.81) and indoor 1000yd (2:04.39). Gray resides in Thousand Oaks with his wife Judy. They have three sons - Johnny Gray, III (29, a graduate of UOP and professional basketball player in Europe), Jared (27, a political science major at Cal State Northridge) and Jaylon (15).


COACHING STAFF 10 crown in the pole vault, while Jonathan Clark was the runner-up finisher in the triple jumps Woepse’s younger brother, Mike, competed at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, along with Clark, as both earned second-team All-American accolades.

ANTHONY CURRAN Volunteer Jumps Coach 30th Season Former UCLA pole vault standout Anthony Curran enters his 29th year at his alma mater, returning this season as the men’s and women’s volunteer jumps coach. Curran has become one of the premier vault coaches in the nation as he continues to produce All-American after All-American at UCLA. He has coached multiple Olympians, National Record Holders, and NCAA and Pac-10 Champions during his tenure at UCLA, a feat that has made UCLA a pole vaulting powerhouse. Curran also earned top honors in 2006 after being named the NCAA West Region Women’s Jumps Coach of the Year. Last season, UCLA was ranked number one for combined pole vault programs in the country with the highest number of 17’ and 18’ foot male pole vaulters and the most 13’ and 14’ foot female pole vaulters. Sophomore Mike Woepse scored second at the NCAAs and went on to place sixth at the U.S. Olympic Trials recording a personal best of 18’ 2 1/2. 17. Sophmore Natasha Kolbo and junior Allison Koressel vaulted 13’7” to rank in the top 10 all-time at UCLA. In addition, six men’s vaulters and decathletes registered personal bests in the pole vault. The Bruins recorded personal bests as four of the women’s team’s six pole vaulters registered marks over 13’1. In the high jump, sophomore Alexis Walker jumped 5-10.75 and redshirt junior Dillon Stucky set a personal best of 50-9.25. In the last 15 years, UCLA pole vaulters have scored more than “double” the points at NCAAs than any other program in the country including seven NCAA Champions and six Runner-up’s. UCLA had two Bruins represented at the 2012 Olympics with vaulters Tori Pena and Yoo Kim. The Bruins also had four vaulters compete at the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials in Megan Jamerson, Katy Viuf, Dustin Deleo and Mike Woepse. In 2011, Curran coached Allison Koressel and Tori Anthony to equal marks of 13-7.25 during the outdoor season, a lifetime-best mark for Korressel. Those two, along with Liz Goodrich, competed at the NCAA Preliminary Round, but did not advance to NCAAs. Curran also coached Greg Woepse to the Pac-

Curran started his own track club, “No Limit Sport” in 1985. In 1989, he founded the Beach Pole Vault Association. He has coached five elite women vaulters - 2000 Olympian Mel Mueller (15-1.75), No. 3 in the U. S.; Mary Sauer, ranked No. 10 in the World (153i), Canadian National Champion and Canadian National Record Holder Dana Ellis (14-8, 6th at the Athens Olympics), former Canadian National Champion Stephanie McCann (14-7.25, 10th at the Athens Olympics), Alexa Harz, fifth at the 2000 U. S. Olympic Trials (13-9.25) and O’Hara, who placed fifth at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2004 (Personal-best 15-0 in 2005). Curran began his own production company in 1995 and has produced seven surf movies sold worldwide. He also began the Curran Surf Camps in 1998, which he runs during the summer, in addition to holding two UCLA pole vault and track camps. In 2003, Curran, an avid musician, produced his first music CD. He wrote, arranged and performed all 13 songs. Curran married Lisa Carlson in 1994, and they have five children - Sara (15), Tate (12) and Marlow (10), Shaylee (5) and Kai Lilly (3).

Curran’s athletes have won nine Pac-10 titles, four on the men’s side and five on the women’s side, while he has coached every woman on UCLA’s all-time top-10 and nine of the men on the all-time chart. In recent years, Curran has coached six Olympians - Okkert Brits (South Africa), Yoo Kim (South Korea), Canadians Dana Ellis and Stephanie McCann, and American Mel Mueller. Ellis is the current Canadian National Record Holder (147.25) and both her and Ellis were Canadian National Champions. Kim set a Korean National Record in 2004 with a mark of 18-4.50, a height which also ranks third all-time at UCLA. Curran, 51, was a four-year letterman and AllAmerican from 1978-82. During his senior season, he won the Pac-10 title with an 18-2.50 vault, No. 4 in Bruin history. In ‘82, Curran also placed fourth in the NCAA. As a junior, he was second in the conference (18-0.50) and also placed second in the NCAA, his best collegiate finish. In 1981, he ranked sixth in the U.S. As a sophomore in 1980, he jumped 17-8.50 to again place second in the Pac-10 and was third at the NCAA Championship. During his freshman season, Curran placed second (17-3) at the conference level and fourth at the NCAA. Still active as a vaulter into the ‘90s, Curran cleared 188.50 (personal-best) in 1992 and that summer competed in the U.S. Olympic trials. Curran, whose brother Tim was a Bruin vaulter in 1975-76, graduated from Crespi HS in Encino in 1978. During his senior prep season, he was the State champion (17-0.50, a CA State record at

DRAKE STADIUM HISTORY/RECORDS Drake Stadium, one of the finest track and field facilities in the world, is now in its 43rd season as the on-campus home of the Bruin men’s and women’s track and field teams. The stadium took on a new look almost eight years ago (August-December 1999) when it was transformed into a state-of-the-art soccer/track and field facility, adding the Frank W. Marshall Field at Drake Stadium. The stadium provides seating for 11,700 spectators. The cost of the project was $1.5 million and was made possible by a lead gift from Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy. All the money was raised from private funds; no state money was utilized. The track in the facility has been converted from a conventional American 400yard eight-lane oval with a 106-degree radius turn to a new European 400-meter nine-lane (48” width lane) with a 136 degree radius on the turn. The surface is tartan provided by Martin Surfacing. There is 13mm of surface material on top of an asphalt base. A track/field drainage system is flush mounted to the inside of lane one. Also on the inside of lane one is an electrical/timing chase that will house the Lynx timing system for the track. Other track and field enhancements include: the steeplechase pit has been moved “inboard” of the track on the north turn; the field events include shot, discus and hammer rings at both the north and south ends of the infield and a javelin runway is also located on both ends to accommodate for the prevailing winds for all these events. A new top of the line hammer and discus cage was erected in the Spring of 2007. In addition, the high jump area has been moved to the south end of the track stadium on its own tartan surface. The north end of the facility has practice pits for the shot, hammer and discus. The stadium has four long/triple jump pits, featuring 38-foot-long sand-filled pits. There are two practice pole vault pits and one infield runway that can accomodate the pit on either the north or south end to take advantage of the wind. Thanks to the change in the configuration of the track, the grass infield is now wide enough to house a regulation 75-yard by 120-yard soccer field, the Frank W. Marshall Field. Another enhancement for Frank W. Marshall Field at Drake Stadium is a scoreboard which measures 25-feet high by 29-feet wide and costs $180,000. The board was a gift of Kay and Paul Seider. It is a matrix board, allowing for scoring and

statistics to be presented for track and field, soccer and football. The system can be connected to the Lynx timing system, which will give instant time and place formation for race finishes. The board will always keep the time of day and has the capability of measuring and displaying temperature and wind direction/ speed for track meets. Since its inaugural meet on Feb. 22, 1969, the stadium has been the site of numerous championship meets, including the National AAU in 1976-77-78, the Pacific-8 Championships in 1970 and 1977 and the California CIF High School meet in 1969-71-77. In 1988, Drake Stadium hosted the Pacific-10 Track and Field Championships, and in 1994, the facility hosted the first-ever California-Nevada Championships. Drake Stadium again hosted the Pacific-10 Track and Field Championships in 1996 and 2005. The stadium also has been the home for UCLA women’s track teams since 1975. It was the site of the National Collegiate T&F Championships (the AIAW) in 1977. It also is used each year for special campus events, such as the annual UCLA Commencement Exercises in June. In 1973, it was officially named Drake Stadium in honor of a legend at UCLA, Elvin C. “Ducky” Drake, who had been associated with his alma mater as a student-athlete, track coach and athletic trainer for over 60 years. Drake died in Los Angeles of a heart attack on Dec. 23, 1988. He was 85.

BRUIN GREATS JACKIE JOYNER-KERSEE Since leaving UCLA after her final year of collegiate competition in 1985, Jackie Joyner-Kersee dominated women’s track and field for 13 years. On three different occasions (1994, ‘87, ‘86) she was the Track & Field News World Athlete of the Year and on five occasions the top American (1994, ‘92, ‘91, ‘87, ‘86). In 1997, JJK was the inaugural recipient of the USA Humanitarian Athlete of the Year and, in 1986-87, she received the Jesse Owens Award. JJK still holds the world record in the heptathlon (7291) and the American records in the heptathlon and long jump (24-7 twice). In Olympic competition, JJK won six medals, including three gold, moving her to the head of the U.S. list, over Bruin alums Florence Griffith-Joyner and Evelyn Ashford, each with five, and Marion Jones, who won five medals, including three gold, at the 2000 Games. In 1996 in Atlanta, JJK could not finish the heptathlon because of a painful right hamstring injury, but came back to win a bronze medal in the long jump. She won a second straight gold medal in the heptathlon and a bronze medal in the long jump at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. At the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, JJK won gold medals in the heptathlon (world record) and the long jump. At the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, while still at UCLA, she won her first Olympic medal, a silver in the heptathlon, just missing the gold by five points. Jackie Joyner-Kersee, the world’s greatest female athlete, retired from heptathlon competition in 1998, winning the event at the Goodwill Games. She did return to long jump competition at the 2000 U.S. Trials in an effort to make her fifth consecutive U.S. women’s Olympic team, but placed sixth (21-10) in the final.

Known worldwide for her interest in helping others, JJK raised more than $12 million to build the Jackie Joyner Kersee Youth Center Foundation in her hometown of E. St. Louis, IL. She also keeps busy as the Chairperson of the St. Louis Sports Commission, and the Co-Founder of Jackie Joyner Kersee Racing (NASCAR). The March 2002 issue of Ebony included Joyner-Kersee on its list of the Top-10 Greatest African-American Women Athletes. In January of 2001, Sports Illustrated for Women named JJK the Greatest Female Athlete of the 20th Century. In 2003, the UCLA track and field programs hosted the first annual Rafer Johnson/Jackie Joyner-Kersee Invitational, named after two of the greatest Bruin athletes in school history.

1994 Kate Schmidt Kate Schmidt was inducted into the USA Track & Field Hall of Fame in 1994 and was UCLA’s first woman inductee. Schmidt won the NCAA javelin title in 1975 (198-1) and still holds the UCLA school record with a throw of 209-7, which she also set in 1975. Nicknamed “Kate the Great” with good reason, she completely dominated the American women’s javelin throwing scene for a decade. She broke the American javelin record 10 times, culminating with a throw of 227’ 5” that has held up as the record for more than a quarter century. At the time, that throw was a world record and established her place on the international scene. Schmidt was third at the 1972 and 1976 Olympic Games and was also a member of the 1980 Olympic team that didn’t compete. She just missed making the 1984 team when she placed fourth at the U.S. Trials. She won seven national titles and placed in the top three in 12 of 13 national championships from 1972 to 1984.

1997 Evelyn Ashford In 1997, Evelyn Ashford was inducted into the USA Track and Field Hall of Fame. She was inducted into the UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame in 1990. Ashford ranked No. 1 in the world four times in the 100m and was the top-ranked American seven times, including four in a row from 1981-84.

She was a silver medalist in the 200m at the 1984 Olympics and also medaled at the 1987 World Outdoor Championships, taking second in the 200m and running on the winning 4x100m relay team. At Seoul in 1988, she won three gold medals (100m, 200m, 4x100m relay) and one silver (4x400m relay), setting a world record in the 200m. It was Flo-Jo’s golden moment and it will be tough to repeat. She still holds the women’s world record of 10.49 for 100 meters and 21.34 for 200 meters and no one has come close to threatening them. Her 10.49 at the 1988 Olympic Trials in Indianapolis was one of the most eye-popping performances in track and field history. She won the Sullivan Trophy in 1988. Flo-Jo married Al Joyner, 1984 Olympic triple jump champion, in 1987. She died on September 21, 1998 at the age of 38.

In January 2001, she was named the World’s Greatest Female Athlete of the 20th Century by Sports Illustrated for Women. Joyner-Kersee was named the Summer Olympian of the Century by the Associated Press in December 1999. The world recordholder in the heptathlon, JJK’s six Olympic medals, including three gold, is the highest total ever won by a U.S. woman. (Bruin alumnae Florence Griffith-Joyner and Evelyn Ashford are second with five apiece). JJK was inducted into the UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996. In 1987 and ‘86, she was given the Jesse Owens Award. In 2003, the UCLA track and field programs hosted the first annual Rafer Johnson/Jackie Joyner-Kersee Invitational, named after two of the greatest Bruin athletes in school history.

MEMORIAL

Florence Griffith-Joyner (1958-1995) Florence Griffith Joyner, known to her friends as DeeDee and to the world as “Flo Jo”, died on Sept. 21, 1998 at the age of 38 of a seizure. Griffith Joyner starred as a Bruin runner from 1981-83. Flo Jo’s potential as a great runner was first witnessed at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, when she won a silver medal in the 200m. But it was four years later when she made the track world sit up and take notice of women’s sprinting. Flo Jo will be as famous for her skin-tight, one-legged running outfits, glittering fingernails and flowing hair as she will be for her two world records and five Olympic medals, including three gold. Flo Jo’s greatness first came through at the 1988 U.S. Olympic Trials in Indianapolis, where she set the world record in the 100m with a time of 10.49. Two months later at the ’88 Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea, Flo Jo would captivate the world with her accomplishments. She won gold in the 100m (10.54w) and 200m, setting her second world-record (21.34), and anchored the winning U.S. 4x100m relay (41.98), while also winning a silver medal on the U.S. 4x400m relay. Those amazing accomplishments earned her the 1988 AP Female Athlete of the Year, USOC Sportswomen of the Year and Sullivan (top amateur athlete) awards. Flo Jo’s track career began to blossom while at UCLA. A 1978 graduate of Jordan HS in Los Angeles, Griffith Joyner first attended CS Northridge before transferring to UCLA. There, under the guidance of Bob Kersee and with teammates Jackie Joyner-Kersee and current Bruin women’s head coach Jeanette Bolden, the Bruins became the best women’s collegiate team in the nation, winning national team championships in 1982 and ’83. In 1982 as a junior, Flo Jo won the NCAA 200m title (22.39) and as a senior in ’83, won the NCAA 400m, setting at the time an NCAA record with a mark of 50.94.

was anxiously awaiting her 1998 induction into UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame (she died two weeks before the induction ceremony). Following her track career, Flo Jo remained involved as a public servant, serving on the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports and as a spokeswoman for Project Eco-School (a resource center for environmental education), the American Cancer Society, the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation and the Osteoporosis Business Coalition. She also received a Distinguished Service Award from the United Negro College Fund. Along As a student at UCLA with her husband Al Joyner, (JJK’s brother) who won a gold medal in the triple jump at the ’84 Olympics and who coached the UCLA women’s jumpers for two seasons (2002-01), they formed the Florence Griffith Joyner Youth Foundation. On Nov. 13, 1990, Flo Jo gave birth to her daughter, Mary Ruth, who is now 17 years old. Donations to the Mary Ruth Joyner trust fund can be sent to—Final Kick Marketing, 26522 La Alameda, Suite 270, Mission Viejo, CA, 92691.

On the Bruin all-time charts, her 100m mark of 11.06 is No. 2, and her times of 22.23 (a collegiate record) in the 200m and 50.94 in the 400m are No. 1.

The March 2002 issue of Ebony listed Griffith Joyner as one of the Top 10 Greatest African-American Women Athletes of all time.

Flo Jo was inducted into the U.S. Track and Field Hall of Fame in 1995 and

In 2004, Joyner’s 100m and 200m world records at the 1988 Olympics were named the 10th and 19th best moments in USA Track and Field history over the past 25 years.

MEMORIAL

Tom Bradley, 1917-1998 Tom Bradley, who in 1973 was elected as the first African-American mayor of Los Angeles and would serve an unprecedented five terms as the city’s mayor before stepping down in 1993, died on Sept. 29, 1998 of a heart attack at the age of 80. Bradley competed for the Bruin track team from 1938-40. Bradley was the most prominent political figure in the history of Los Angeles. In 1963 he was the first African-American elected to the City Council; served as mayor for 20 years presiding over a period of enormous growth; twice ran unsuccessfully for governor of California (in 1982, running against Republican George Deukmejian, Bradley came within 52,295 votes of becoming the first African-American to win the top office in any state) and he helped bring the Olympics back to Los Angeles in 1984. Born to sharecropper parents on Dec. 29, 1917 in Calvert, TX, Bradley’s family moved to Los Angeles in 1924. He attended John H. Francis Polytechnic High School, a mostly white campus, where he was the first African-American to be elected president of the Poly Boys’ League and the first to be inducted into the Ephebians, a national honor society. Bradley was also captain of the track team and a standout in the quarter-mile, long jump and relays. In 1937 he was the All-Southern California 440y champion. Bradley also made the All-City football squad as a tackle. After graduation from Poly HS, Bradley earned a track scholarship to attend UCLA. He was a three-year letterman, competing in the 440y, 880y and relays. His best time in the 440y was 48.2, in 1939. One of Bradley’s track teammates was Jackie Robinson, who would later break baseball’s color barrier. As a Bruin, Bradley was a prominent member of Kappa Alpha Psi UCLA’s AfricanAmerican fraternity. For his outstanding career achievements in public service and collegiate athletics, Bradley in 1977 was given the NCAA’s top honor, The Theodore Roosevelt Award. The inscription on the Roosevelt Award describes Bradley’s many and life-long contributions to the nation, the City of Los Angeles and to UCLA—The Teddy Award annually is presented to a prominent American “for whom competitive athletics in college and attention to physical well-being thereafter have been important factors in a distinguished career of national significance and achievement.”
