1978 NCAA OUTDOOR TRACK AND FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS
track meet official's collared Polo shirt
!!
Please see all
four
photos, as they are an important part of my description. This track & field championship for college men
took place at historic
Hayward Field
in
Eugene, Oregon
on the
University of Oregon
campus, home of the
Oregon Ducks
. I acquired this
scarce
golf shirt/polo shirt from a local gentleman who was a field official at many Prefontaine Classic meets and other major track meets over the years. The shirt's maker was
"Champion"
(see pic of the Champion single-bar label); the shirt is tagged an XL (extra-large). The shirt measures approximately 31" in length (measured from top of neckline to bottom hem) by 21" wide (measured from armpit-to-armpit). This vintage shirt was made in the U.S.A., with a 50% polyester and 50% cotton blend. The shirt's colors are the host
Oregon Ducks
school colors of green and yellow.

History
: at these championships,
Oregon Ducks
distance runner
RUDY CHAPA
thrilled the thousands of hometown fans by winning the 5,000 meters in 13:35.2, spurred on by the Oregon faithful's deafening stomping and chanting of
"Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!"
(being relatively new to Eugene at the time and having never witnessed former Oregon great Steve Prefontaine running in Eugene, a fellow spectator turned and said to me: "This is how loud it got when Pre ran here!").
