And if you were to guess which event a 1970s University of Washington track and field team swept, what would it be? Yes, the javelin... under the tutelage of throws maven Coach Ken Shannon, Washington dominated the javelin. In this meet, Gary Quitslund (264-7), Rod Ewaliko (222-1), and Tom Gregorson (213-2) upheld the purple and gold's great tradition.
