Dub Myers
- Induction:
- 2015
Few of Oregon’s elite track and field standouts were more consistent over the course of their four-year collegiate careers yet ran under the radar in their early tenure more so than Dub Myers. The former four-time state prep champion from Portland’s Parkrose High School ran under the shadows of a 1984 Olympic champion for the Ducks yet was instrumental in contributing to their lone NCAA men’s outdoor track team title in a 43-year span. The four-time All-American finished fifth in the 1,500 as a freshman in 1983 before a third-place showing the following year helped Oregon claim the NCAA championship. Myers proceeded to place fourth at 1,500 meters his junior year before his individual crown in the event in 1986 would make him the school’s only men’s 1,500 winner for the next 24 years. Along the way he also claimed Pac-10 Conference titles in the 800 in 1985 and in the 1,500 in ’86. Myers completed his collegiate career third on the Ducks’ all-time list in the 1,500 (3:37.89) and fourth at 800 meters (1:47.51). The 1986 1st-team Academic All-American and recipient of the University’s Emerald Athletic Trophy as its top senior student-athlete based on outstanding achievement in the fields of athletics, scholarship and citizenship also was the Ducks’ first male athlete ever to be bestowed with the NCAA Top-Six Award in 1987 for athletic and academic achievement as well as community service.
