A Kerruille Daily Oimrs Friday, August 7, 1992 1B Sports U.S.A. has golden day in track Lewis wins third long jump gold; Young sets world 400H record BARCELONA, Spain (AP) Every thumping stride shot pain through Dave Johnson's fractured foot until he crossed the finish line in the waning dusk and closed out one lowed in the Games. Two U.S. fighters assured themselves gold or silver, Oscar De La Hoya surviving an ugly Chris match against a mauler, and Byrd boxing beautifully against a slugger. of America's greatest days on an Olympic track.

It was a day of guts and waves of Old Glory, a day when the medal count four gold, two silver, three bronze in six finals only began to tell the story. You might have to go back to Mexico City in 1968, when Bob Beamon soared beyond 29 feet for the first time and Jim Hines cracked the 10-second barrier in the 100 meters, to find such an illustrious day for Americans at the Summer Games. And it happened not only in the Olympic stadium, but all over Barcelona on Thursday as the United States drew within one medal of the Unified Team, 87-86, after starting the morning 10 behind. Mountainous Bruce Baumgartner became the only American wrestler to win medals in three straight Olympics, taking the gold in the 286-pound freestyle by beating Jeff Thue of Canada 8-0. Kenny Monday won a silver at 163 pounds, losing 1-0, to Park Jang-Soon of South Korea.

That match was tied 0-0 until Park took Monday down with 15 seconds to go.

BOXING Chris Byrd and Oscar De La Hoya advanced to Saturday's finals. The day finally ended across town at basketball, where the Dream Teamers put nearly everyone but themselves to sleep with another boring romp, 127-76 over Lithuania, to reach the gold medal game against Croatia on Sunday. Team USA was at its dominating best against the remnants of the Soviet team that upset the Americans in the semifinals four years ago in Seoul. Michael Jordan's 21 points led nine players in double figures as the Americans punished the Lithuanians Joe Arredondo do takes over lead KERRVILLE Joe Arredondo is making sure his trip all the way from Japan is worthwhile. Arredondo fired a 66 on Thursday to take over the second round lead of the 48th annual Heart of the Hills Tournament at Schreiner Municipal Golf Course.

That gave him a two-round score of 137, four strokes better than a trio of golfers tied for second at 141. They are Gary Owens of Houston, Billy Cain and defending champion Gary Wootton.

Saturday might be your best Band- day to pick the horses that way at era Downs in the featured and 11th race, a 350-yard quarter horse allowance for 3-year-olds. Hannah's Rebel, Nearly Time, and Trixie Sticks will run from the first three starting gate positions in Saturday's $2,3000 race.

Hannah's Rebel is trained by Dave Correll, who's been saddling winners in the recent quarter horse futurities and derbies. He's got leading jockey David Brown to ride Hannah's Rebel, formance, practically nothing in Olympic track during the past two decades, with the whole world competing, surpassed this show Thursday: -Carl Lewis Icading Mike Powell and Joe Greene to a second consecutive U.S. sweep in the long jump, grabbing a record third gold for himself in the event, and pushing his gold collection to seven with a leap of 28 fect, 5.5 into a headwind. -Kevin Young knocking over the final barrier in the 400-meter hurdles and still making a joke of Edwin Moses' 9-year-old world record, shattering it by nearly a quarter of a second in 46.78. -Mike Marsh and Gwen Torrence sweeping the men's and women's 200-meter races, the third straight time U.S.

runners have done that in the Olympics. -Dave Johnson, fighting the pain in his swollen foot, winning the first decathlon medal by an American in 16 years, but unhappily settling for a bronze behind Czechoslovakia's Robert Zmelik and Spain's Antonio Penalver. -Gail Devers tripping over the last hurdle in the women's 100 hurdles, plunging shoulder-first onto the track, tumbling across the finish on offense and defense. Sarunas Marciulionis of the Golden State Warriors, a 1988 Soviet gold medalist, led Lithuania with 20 points, while 7-foot-3 Arvidas Sabonis, David Robinson's opposing center four years ago, had 11 points. "Revenge wasn't really a factor," said Robinson, the only veteran of that U.S.

team. "I think about Seoul a little bit (but) it hasn't haunted me." Charles Barkley said the biggest inspiration was the shocking loss Wednesday by the U.S. women to Singe line and losing a guaranteed gold to Paraskevi Patoulidou, the first Greek woman ever to win an Olympic medal in track.

A stroke behind was another Kerrville team, Palin and John Kennedy. In third at 146 were Kerrville's Modesto Delossantos and Ray Gutierrez.
