Lewis Extends Long Jump Win Streak in Cold Seattle
In frigid wind Carl Lewis stretched his streak to 60 straight wins in the long jump with a 2 foot 6 inch leap at the Goodwill Games. He edged 28 foot rivals as three jumpers and noted his focus remains on songs and book tour obligations rather than peak performances. The U S routed Italy 113 76 on the basketball court to reach the medals round while Oscar Schmidt poured in 42 points in a Goodwill Games record. Two other U S teams, women’s volleyball and men’s water polo, posted mixed results as Soviet and Yugoslav rivals loomed. Lewis, pace set, now eyes the next meet and the 36th straight outdoor clearance over 27 feet. Powell called the loss a learning moment, vowing future improvement.
