Luke named to Brown’s
Athletic Hall of Fame


Catherine Luke, a 1991 Punahou School graduate, has been named to the Brown University Athletic Hall of Fame.

Luke was a member of the university's volleyball team and was named as Ivy league Player of the Year as a senior in 1995.

She finished that year as the league leader in digs with 464 and was the third best in the league in kill average with 3.25 per game.

After graduating from Brown, Luke attended the London School of Economics and now works for Inktomi in Foster City, Calif.

No sweating required

The Honolulu Marathon has set up a contest on its web site that allows everyone to run the marathon without actually running.

All you do is input your name and such personal information as your heart rate -- both resting and maximum -- and your body fat percentage. You do have to know what a VO2 max is and what number to put under it.

Don't think of just maxing out all of the categories to win the T-shirt and hat, because your unrealistic runner would not be able to finish.

When you are finished training your runner, log back on Dec. 9 to see how you did against the rest of the Honolulu Marathon field.

Three Hawaii players helped Occidental

Three Hawaii football players were instrumental in Occidental University's run to the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference football title this year.

Keoni Schullerts, a 1997 St. Louis graduate, played tight end for the Tigers. He caught 26 passes for 342 yards and two touchdowns and was a second team All-SCIAC selection.

Wide receiver Reinaldo Pacheco, a 1998 Iolani graduate, had 20 catches for 355 yards and three TDs.

Rhone Rarick, another 1998 Iolani graduate, had 14 catches for 182 yards and three TDs as a wide receiver before a knee injury cut short his season.

He also was the Tigers' punter and handled kickoffs.

Occidental, an NCAA Division III school, finished with an 8-1 record. It is the first time in the 80-year history of football at Occidental, that three Hawaii players have been on the team at the same time.

Surf still too small at Rip Curl Cup

The Rip Curl Cup was postponed again yesterday due to small, 1-2 foot surf.

Organizers opted to use another day of the allotted waiting period in an effort to ensure the World Championship Tour season-ending event and the second leg of the Vans Triple Crown will be held in bigger waves.

A swell is expected to arrive today or tomorrow, and the holding period for the contest --which needs two more full days to complete --ends Friday.

None of the nine surfers still in contention for the 2001 world title lost in the opening heat.
