Event 7 – Discus – Final Attempt

Schaplowsky – Is still nursing his injury and has elected to pass in order to receive some additional treatment prior to the Pole Vault

Babson – Takes his 3rd attempt, and steps on the toe board for his second straight foul. He’ll finish up with his first 190’ result

Llyw – Almost an instant replay of his previous attempt…touches the toe board and fouls

Path – The third attempt for Path, he’s looking for another improvement and really going after the toss, but as is often the case, the extra effort created a flaw in form and resulted in a foul.

Ginsberg – not surprisingly Ginsberg passes again

Bafou – also passes again

Palmiero – a third straight pass

Nielsen – Following his strong second attempt, Nielsen elects to rest rather than try for a better result, so 4 in a row…

Ketola – the focus on getting something legal on this attempt is obvious, and the mechanical almost robotic form illustrates his desire to insure he’d not leave this event without some points. All in all his final toss of 174 feet is pretty good…considering the injury and his focus on scoring. In fact with a little more effort he probably could have topped 190 even with that approach to the toss.

Honcho – His third attempt is a good one, but it isn’t close to his big throw in the second round. Actually it measures the exact same 187’ mark he posted with his first attempt.

Mighty – Form was really textbook on this attempt, unfortunately he only managed to toss the discus about 139 feet so that isn’t going to help. I have a feeling had he gone all out and really upped his effort while maintaining that form he might have challenged his personal best

Chilton – sloppy form finally resulted in a foul

Rambis – Oh, a good toss from Rambis on his last attempt…not sure if it is going to be better than his 181’ toss in the first round…it’ll be close…ohhhh…this one is 180’…so no improvement but a great effort

Jordan – Nice throw of 171’ on his 3rd throw.

Peltonen - after two pretty pitiful throws…Peltonen unleashes a good on…this one lands out around 175’…that’s a huge improvement over his 150’ efforts previously. The official distance is 175’…Peltonen steps up big when he needed to.
