EUGENE, Ore. -- It's a repeat!  Hayward Field will host another round of the Track and Field Olympic Trials in 2012. Hayward Field is already playing host to the trials next year in 2008.  They aren't just saying "Track Town USA" after this announcement. The phrase we heard over and over again today, was "Track Town USA Forever." And the local economy is already feeling the benefit.
