Benn Fields
Benjamin "Benn" Fields (born December 17, 1954) is an American former high jumper. In 1979 Fields won silver medals at the Pan American Games and the Soviet Spartakiad. He won his specialty at the 1980 U.S. Olympic Trials, but missed out on Olympic participation due to the American boycott.
==Early career==
Fields attended Washingtonville High School in Washingtonville, New York, where he set school records in both high jump and triple jump. Originally, he jumped as Ben Fields; he adopted the spelling "Benn" later in his career to make his name more distinctive. In 1972, his senior year at Washingtonville, Fields suffered from a bruised back but recovered fast enough to enter the New York State high school championship meet as one of the favorites in the high jump; he won the state title with a jump of 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NYSPHSAA boys outdoor track championships )〕
After graduating from Washingtonville Fields entered the State University of New York at New Paltz, setting a SUNY Athletic Conference record as a freshman in 1973 and sharing third place at that year's NCAA College Division championships. SUNY New Paltz dropped its track and field program after that year, with Fields moving to Seton Hall University as a result.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hall of Fame Ceremony Set For Saturday )〕 While at Seton Hall, he won the 1975 Penn Relays high jump with a jump of 7 ft in (2.17 m) and placed fourth at that year's NCAA Division I Championships; he also won the 1975 IC4A high jump title as Seton Hall claimed the team championship.〔〕 In 1976, his final year at Seton Hall, Fields placed eighth at the NCAA championships and seventh at the national (AAU) championships.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ben Fields )〕 At that summer's U.S. Olympic Trials Fields no-heighted in the final, failing to qualify for the American team.
