JOHN FRAZIER

In 2016 the UCLA men placed third at the Pac-12 Championships and finished 18th at the NCAA Championships. Frazier was named the USTFCCCA West Region Men’s Assistant Coach of the Year.

The throws program continued to thrive under his watch. Senior Nicholas Scarvelis, sophomore Braheme Days and freshman Dotun Ogundeji qualified for the both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor National Championships. Scarvelis won his third straight Pac-12 shot put title and then later went on to win the NCAA West Prelim title and also qualified in the discus. Days was third in the region in the shot put while Ogundeji competed in the shot put and discus at the national meet.

Earlier in 2016, Scarvelis uncorked the fourth longest throw in school history at 67-7.50 and in doing so also hit the Olympic qualifying mark. Days closely followed with the sixth best throw at 66-3.75. Ogundeji launched a personal best 62-11.50 at the NCAA Prelims. On the women’s side, junior Torie Owers recorded the seventh-best throw in school history at 57-5.

Scarvelis earned first-team All-America honors in both the indoor and outdoor seasons. Days also joined Scarvelis on the podium during the outdoor season. Ogundeji was an indoor second team All-American and was honorable mention in both the discus and shot in Eugene.

In his second season, the men’s team finished fourth at the Pac-12 championships and had four earn All-American honors and two more earn honorable mention accolades. During the indoor campaign the Bruins had two All-Americans and another named honorable mention.

Individually the throws were one of the top units for UCLA in 2015. Nicholas Scarvelis put together another stellar campaign, this time earning NCAA Championship berths in both the indoor and outdoor seasons. Scarvelis broke into the UCLA top-10 with a personal best throw of 65-0.50 and won the MPSF and Pac12 titles in the shot put. He earned All-American honors in both seasons. Torie Owers made an

In his first season at the helm of the men’s program, Coach Frazier helped lead the Bruins to a dual meet win over rival USC and some impressive individual performances on the national stage. Five Bruins earned USTFCCCA All-American honors. At the Pac-12 Championships sophomore Nicholas Scarvelis won the shot put title with a throw of 63-10.25, to win the event by over three feet. Senior Julian Wruck defended his Pac-12 discus title with a mark of 210-9. En route to earning All-American accolades, Wruck placed second at the NCAA meet in the discus, Scarvelis finished 10th in the shot put, Matthew Kosecki was 12th in the discus, Cody Danielson was 14th in the javelin and Nick Hartle was 16th in the 800m. During the indoor season, Marcus Nilsson and Mike Woepse earned USTFCCCA All-American honors after Nilsson placed eighth in the heptathlon and Woepse was 13th in the pole vault.

Frazier was instrumental in the development of Pac-12 champion Nicholas Scarvelis, who went on to place 10th at the NCAA championship in the shot put. He also developed Braheme Days into one of the top shot putters in the world at the junior level. Days won the USATF Junior Track and Field Championship in the shot put and was followed by newcomer Amir Patterson.

Days set the American junior record in the shot put with a throw of 69-5.25 at the 2014 Imperial Section of USATF Championship a couple weeks prior. Days capped off his summer with a bronze medal at the IAAF World Junior Championships.

Frazier returned to his alma mater (‘82-’86) as men’s head coach after most recently spending seven seasons on the coaching staff at the University of Tennessee, where he was an associate head coach and coach for men’s and women’s throws.

With over 25 years of experience in the track and field coaching community specializing in coaching throwers, Frazier brings with him experience from stops at the University of Florida, the University of Arizona and Tennessee, among others. Throughout his career at the collegiate level, Frazier has produced 43 All-American athletes as well as four NCAA champions. Most recently, Volunteer javelin thrower Kyle Quinn earned second team All-America honors for his tenth place finish in Eugene at the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Championships.

Frazier’s return to Westwood is a well-deserved homecoming for one of the great Bruin throwers ever to compete at Drake Stadium. Under legendary coaches Jim Bush, Bob Larsen, and Art Venegas, Frazier was a three-time AllAmerican in the shot put during his UCLA career, earning first team honors at both NCAA Indoors and Outdoors in 1985 as well as at the 1986 Outdoor Championships.

Frazier graduated from UCLA with a bachelor’s degree in political science in 1986.

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.

She also had the 25th-best USATF moment after becoming the first woman to break 7,000 points in the heptathlon.

Joyner-Kersee was also a four-year starter on the UCLA women’s basketball team, playing from 1980-83 and 1984-85. She is still listed among the Bruins’ best in career scoring, rebounding and assists. JJK continued her basketball career in 1996, playing for Richmond in the ABL.

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.
