  If you would like to be accurate in the Oregon vs. UCLA report, you might want to recheck photo credit for Cyrus Hostetler.

Oh so you're the announcer guy at Willamette U.  Doesn't that stadium suck! You can't get in/out of it easily to save your life!

Track and Field History

1.  I have been the stat guy for Oregon track meets since 2001.  I provide background information and give information for Paul Swangard to announce including information on where marks stand on the UO and national lists. I have also helped with all major meets at Oregon including NCAA, US, and Prefontaine meets. 

2. I worked for CBS as the stat guy for the 2005 to 2007 telecasts in Sacramento.  I would have done it this year but I couldn't get an affordable ticket to Des Moines, Ia

3. I have announced at Willamette University since 2003.

4. I worked for Comcast Sportsnet as their Graphics coordinator for the 2008 Olympic Trials.  I had a graphic several times that indicated interesting stats related to upcoming event finals called "Schneider's Stats"

5. I believe in Bill Bowerman's idea that you prepare athletes for the Olympics.  He took local athletes and made them great.  He didn't recruit overseas.  If athletes came from other countries he trained them but he didn't look for them.  The University of Oregon has always taken that philosophy.  Other schools have recruited other countries to win championships.  Take the "Track Capital of the World", that's great for them but not what I prefer.  There are a lot of great coaches that have taken that other philosophy and they have had great success.  In 2009 I met the two best at that and I really learned a lot from their attitude and personality and I am better for it.
