NCAA ANNOUNCES REVISED SCHEDULE FOR OUTDOOR TRACK & FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS

June 10, 2004
AUSTIN, Texas
After inclement weather postponed nearly every event on the first day of the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Mike A. Myers Stadium, meet officials reconfigured the four-day schedule to allow for the competition to be completed by Saturday night as originally planned.
In essence, what the NCAA committee did was eliminate the semifinal heats of running events as well as the qualifying rounds of field events, shortening the meet to fit into the remainder of the initial four-day window. That structure prevents the meet from continuing into Sunday, a practice that the NCAA attempts to avoid in deference to schools whose religious affiliations prevent their athletes from competing on that day.
Sophomore pole vaulter Jessica Reust (Knoxville, Tenn.) was the only Lady Vol directly impacted by Wednesday??TMs torrential rains and lightning delays, which reached 6 1/2 hours in length and ultimately ended any efforts to restart the meet. The SEC champion had taken one unsuccessful, water-logged attempt in the qualifying round at the opening height of 12-3.50 before action was stopped due to dangerous conditions. She will now have to wait until Friday to resume competition, participating in an event that is now in a finals format rather than a qualifying round.
Thursday competitors for Tennessee include freshman Tianna Madison (Elyria, Ohio) and junior Toyin Olupona (Orillia, Ontario, Canada) in the 100m dash prelims at 5:20 p.m. Central Time; Madison in the long jump finals at 6:30 p.m. CT; senior Kameisha Bennett (Dayton, Ohio), junior Nicole Cook (Petersburg, Va.) and freshman Leslie Treherne (Chesapeake, Va.) in the 800m prelims at 6:45 p.m.; sophomore Brooke Novak (Kaukauna, Wis.) and senior Lindsay Hyatt (Auburn, Calif.) in the 1500m prelims at 7:55 p.m. CT and the 4x400m relay prelims at 8:30 p.m. CT.
