8The Daily Tar Heel Wednesday, August 27, 1986 U.S. hammering way By BOB YOUNG Assistant Sports Editor This summer, while you were reading the tanning index on your sunscreen, IT was coming. While you were wondering if Don Johnson was really serious about his singing career. IT was growing stronger. And by the lime you were search ing for the Alka Seltzer after that Fourth of July bash, IT was alive. IT is the hammer throw, and until this summer. IT was the only track-and-field event in which the United States had annually failed to produce world class performers. The hammer, by way of introduc tion, is a 16-pound metal ball that sits on the end of a yard-long steel cord. The event consists of spinning :' LSAT r t'ttx OAT ?no OWaT rt-tx "CAT ruscao 7T Mltl UIMM hiCim lMlilMI 2451 FREE Good for 30 minutes Free Parking at Municipal Parking Lot 5 August 21 thru September 5, 1986 Corner of W.

When it's done correctly, and with a lot of muscle, the implement flies about 80 to 90 yards with quite a bit of velocity. In fact, one track reporter was killed earlier this year when a wayward hammer caved in his skull. The fact that the hammer can be a dangerous event has, in part, led to its weak stature in this country. Most high school and college con ferences don't feel the hammer is safe enough to contest. Thus, America's exposure to the event is minimal and the. nation's international perfor mances have pointed up this inexperience. But no more. The sport's most saturated fats.

Logan, who goes 6-4, 278, has set nine American records in his spe cialty since 1984. His first record, which was set at the beginning of end of 1984, was 244-7. The world record at that time, nearly 40 feet further (283-3), was held by the Soviet Union's Yuriy Syedikh. In 1985, Logan upped the mark four times, finishing the year with a heave of 253-5. This past track season also saw Logan assault the record four times. He opened up his season with a toss of 254-9 and continued his record streak with measurements of 256-3, 263-4 and 265-4. That last mark made Logan the llth-best thrower in the history of the event. No American had been that high up on the all-time standings since 1971. And the American record now ranks as the fifth best among all other national records, as well as being the best showing since 1971. While a mark of 265-4 may seem like peanuts in comparisoa to Sye dikh's new record of 284-4, Amer ican hammer throwing has come nearly 19 feet closer to the world mark than it was just two years ago. And Logan isn't the only Yank making waves in the event. Ken Flax, who just graduated from the Uni versity of Oregon, became the first American since 1975 to win the NCAA title when he upset Washing ton State's (and Sweden's) Tore Gustafsson this year in Indianapolis. In fact. Flax tied Gustafsson's collegiate record of 255-1 in the preliminary rounds of that meet. In the finals, he broke the record twice with tosses of 256-4 and 257-0. The last mark was a personal best by over seven feet and gave an American the collegiate record for the first time since 1972. He is now behind only Logan on the list of all-time Amer ican performers. The event's future in this country may end up being placed in the hands of men .such as Logan and Flax. Unless high schools and colleges change their views about the event future throwers will have to pick up the event on their own. With luck, they will, and Amer ica's resurgence in the event will continue for quite a few more years - far longer than Don Johnson's singing career.
