SPORTS BRIEFS: Thursday, February 12, 1998

Men's track to celebrate Valentine's Day at BU Penn's men track team is no stranger to the Terriers arena. Just two weeks ago it was the site where the two-mile relay team recorded the best time in the East. This weekend's meet will be Penn's last before Princeton hosts the Heptagonals in two weeks. Last weekend Penn competed in the Delaware Invitational, a meet highlighted by the performance of Stan Anderson. Anderson won both the high jump and long jump, with distances of 2.06 meters and 15.01 meters, respectively. Other Quakers to finish first in Newark, Del., were John Linhart and Lucas Deines. Linhart won the pole vault with a 5.13 meter vault while Deines won the 35-lb. weight with a throw of 18.00 meters. -- Zac Costello Tiger is oldest player on women's hockey team PRINCETON, N.J. (U-WIRE) --Former Princeton women's hockey head coach Lisa Brown-Miller exemplifies dedication, representing the United States at the Winter Games in Nagano, Japan, as the oldest member of the American team. Still undefeated in the Olympic debut of women's hockey, Brown-Miller and her teammates are expected to secure a berth in the gold-medal game against rival Canada. The team has already soundly defeated China, 5-0, and Sweden, 7-1. But the road to Nagano and the chance for Olympic gold required Brown-Miller to live a life singularly devoted to her sport, placing both her professional and personal lives on hold. A member of the National team since its inception in 1990, the 31-year-old forward from Michigan gave up her coaching position at Princeton to train full-time, and eventually won a position on the Olympic team. Between coaching Princeton and training, little time remains to spend with her husband of three years. Because of Brown-Miller's sacrifice and passion for the sport, she was a role model for her young Tiger players. She came to Princeton in 1991 after an outstanding collegiate career at Providence College.
