European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - May 7, 1987, Darmstadt, Hesse Thursday 7,1987 the stars and stripes Page 21 prep Pickton s j i track efforts impress Duke Mentor say those Are pretty Good achieve ments Duke track and Field coach Al Buchler visited the Sun and stripes sports office the other Day and be was looking on As i was revising the is Honor Roll and Buehler who is conducting a track and Fiel clinic at Darmstadt Germany for usage Ufa this week was right there were some Fine achievements recorded hut week. Stuttgart s Mike Behrendt turned in a icintitlaling1 58.7 clocking in the 800 meters in the Stuttgart pentagonal to Lutock Baum older n Rick Jailer off1he top spot in that event. Lake Nneal s Anita Hobbs went 18-3 and Frank Furt s Tom Johnson recorded a 22-0 Effort in the gird and Hoys Long jump respectively and Augsburg t Terry Elliott registered the year s Best Effort in the 110 High hurdles a 14.6 clocking just two tenths of a second off the Dodds record. Pitburg t Richard Williams went 6-8 in the High jump another Mark not far off the Dodds record these times and distance might not look Toogood in track wild it Ila like Texas and California but they compare favourably with most of the other states Buehler said. He was even More amazed when made aware of the very Short Dodds schedule with its two week Layoff in mid Sean because of easter holidays. It s absolutely amazing that the girls and boys Are accomplishing so much under those conditions. And i be been told about How bad Spring weather can be Here. I m glad to hear or such interest in track and Field that diligent training and dedication to the objective is All aimed at special achievements in the regional and in country championships. Spain athletes get to demonstrate How much Prog Ress they be made Friday and saturday in their regional at Torrejon. For the Germany and Beinor teams this i the last week to hone tournament skills. Those learn shave their conference championships next week. Those meets Mil determine qualifiers for the Central european championships 21-22 at Munich. In soccer As it is in football tiebreakers Are virtually meaningless in Dodds Germany. Shootout were held after four soccer games last week. The we Bruecken and Bamberg boys and Wuerzburg and Karlsruhe Giris prevailed in the showdowns. However those triumphs have absolutely no value unless those teams happen to tie for possible playoff positions in the final standings. Otherwise the lie stand. The situation has been the same in Dodds Ger Many football Over the years. Ties have been treated ties in the official league standings and the tie Breakers came into olay Only if they were necessary to determine or seeds. Most soccer league standings Are figured on a two Points a win one Point a tie goals far goals against basis. In those leagues Competition generally is Honie and Home in nature and. In sufi cases be cause so Many games Are played chances of ties Are considerably reduced. It probably would t be fair to in Dodd leagues according to that format because of the very Short seasons. But what is wrong with counting those wins re Fulling from shootout As wins not a pack of ifs the team do play two extra periods before the shoot off competing for a win. If either team gains an advantage during the of periods the record becomes offi Cial counting the shootouts As wins right now would create a clearer picture of the Overall standings and playoff possibilities As the season progresses. I Nave the same questions about shoot outs As i do about tiebreakers. If they Are meaningless Why have them. Dopes Germany sports coordinator Tom Leb Lanc said tuesday that the football coaches had recommended that tiebreakers count As official Deci Sions for the won lost standings and that procedure will go into effect next fall. He also said the situation would be broached u is soccer coaches and if the desire to make a change for next year it too can be arranged. Three key words at any one time were omitted from my column last week regarding soccer substitutions. Leblanc said that players in Dodds Germany Competition under fifa Law Iii no. 3,can be freely substituted for but that no More than two can be inserted into the game at any one time. Dodds Germany soccer clinics have Bee scheduled for girls and boys at Nel Linen Germany june 20-27, Leblanc also announced tuesday. Coach Mike Russo and nationally renown official Al Cece both of Williams College Williamstown ma., will conduct the sessions. Leblanc said that Idle covering All eligibility details have been sent to All Dodds schools in Ger Many. Each school will be allowed to Send three girl Sand three boys to the clinic.

Power of attorney re leases should also be sent at that time the entry fee includes accommodations at the Fulda youth Hostel and meals but All campers must gel to Fulda on their own. I am quite disappointed that Dodds official do not feel that they can Sanction such a football Camp George said.
