Track plays a decidely backburner sport at PSU but its getting better. Up at Seattle today two more qualified for the Big Sky Tournament. That makes what? nine qualified? The story posted on goviks mentioned them, but failed to mention that Amirah Karim came through again, taking first with a long jump of 18'4", while Caressa Sims, who competed with us last year and graduated, took first in the weight throw up at Seattle, competing unattached. She threw the ball 61'11", good enough for the NCAA provisional. This is, mind you, against Oregon and UW. The women's team is forecast to place 7th in the Big Sky meet, but they're likely to do better. Let's hear it for track!
 
Whoa, that is great. We have some great athletes and it is awe-inspiring seeing the improvement year after year. Establishing credibility in all the back-burner sports will go far to establishing the legitimacy of Portland State University.
 
Following his dream

Seth Henson says he always knew athletics was his passion.

So it’s not a surprise to find the South Albany High School graduate still involved in sports three years after graduation from Portland State and completion of his own collegiate track and field career.

Henson, now 25, first became interested in coaching while in high school, and now he finds himself coaching Division I athletes.

Thursday, Henson was at Hayward Field in Eugene coaching decathlete Nick Trubachik, the Vikings’ first male athlete to qualify for the NCAA national meet since Portland State moved to Division I in 1997.
