A Sweep for UCLA in Pac-10 : Track and field: Reed helps Bruin men turn back Trojans for third straight title; women also repeat.

Sprinter Marcus Reed swept the 100 and 200 meters as UCLA again won both the men’s and women’s titles in the Pacific 10 Conference track and field championships Saturday.

UCLA’s men, winning for the third straight year despite a spill by defending champion Ross Flowers in the 110-meter hurdles, scored 135 points to 121.5 for runner-up USC. Washington State was a surprising third with 109.

The Bruin women, champions for the second year in a row, had 127 points, 13 more than second-place Arizona State, with Arizona another 18 back. The Trojans were fourth with 53.

UCLA’s male distance runners exceeded expectations. Creighton Harris finished second in the 3,000-meter steeplechase Friday and third in the 5,000 meters Saturday, and Brian Gastelum’s second place in the 1,500 meters was “a big one no one had counted on,” said Bruin Coach Bob Larsen, who added:

“We knew we had enough of a cushion to withstand one disaster. (Flowers’ mishap) was our one disaster. We just had to go on with our business.”

Larsen’s teams have won six of the last eight Pac-10 titles.

Reed, a senior from Canoga Park, took the 100 in 10.47 seconds, the 200 in 20.57. He also ran the third leg on UCLA’s 400-meter relay team, which won in 39.69.

“I had a pretty good day,” he said. “There was some good competition, and the weather was nicer than yesterday (when it was cold and rainy).”

Teammate John Godina retained his two conference titles, winning the shotput Friday and taking the discus Saturday with a throw of 189 feet 7 inches.

Paul Greene paced USC’s efforts, winning the 400 meters in 46.15, placing second in the 200 in 20.80 and anchoring both relay teams--the Trojans won the 1,600 in 3:06.64 and were second in the 400 in 40.01.

Jeanette Bolden, UCLA’s first-year women’s coach, said: “We had a team meeting last night that was just tremendous . . . talking about pulling together and team unity, about not conceding, not making mistakes and staying together.”

Bruin Roshanda Glenn won the women’s triple jump with a leap of 43-2 1/4, and teammates Candy Roberts and Sarah Andrews placed 1-2 in the discus at 169-0 and 161-2, respectively.

Washington State’s Josephat Kapkory added a third men’s distance title to his weekend collection Saturday, winning the 5,000 meters in 14:16.65 after taking the 3,000-meter steeplechase and the 10,000 meters Friday.

It was Cougar Coach John Chaplin’s last home meet on the Mooberry Track.

Chaplin, 57, resigned after 21 years as head coach in the wake of a scandal for exceeding scholarship limits and awarding improper tuition waivers. The conference revoked Washington State’s 1985 and 1991 conference titles and banned the team from postseason competition last year.
