He was assisted by coaches Virginia Samuelson, Doug Snyder and Timmi Rian- da. The majority of 'track athletes' were freshmen or newcomers to the sport. For this reason, the team lacked some strength in the early part of the season. The track team lost some of last year's stand outs like Jeff Patter- son who was an all-league hurdler and Eric Snyder who was in the number two position in the MTAL and in the number four spot long-jumper in the state. This years track team gained some people to compensate for the losses. Juniors Todd Silva and Lee Hawkins along with sophomores Fran Her- nandez and Tony Boch proved in the MTAL Relays that Hollister High still produces the best hurdlers in the league. The track team also gain- ed sprinters Travis Thompson and Spencer Bishop who are capable of being the fastest sprinters in the league. To add to this sprinting powerhouse, the team also gained freshmen Oscar and Frank Riveria who have already proved they can compete at the varsity level. Oscar said, The only difference between the junior varsity and varsity level is the experience of competing in meets and not know how fast you can run. The long distance team consisted of the same members of the cham- pionship cross country team which has always been strong at any level of competition. The distance team displayed this at an early season dual meet against Gilroy High who has always sent distance runners to the Central Coast Section. The team was aided b sophomore standou Ralphie Chavez, who i his first league meet, broke the five-minut mark in the mile. He i assisted by Steve Vallej who was the all-leagu cross country champion Joseph Caserez, Gre Coombes, and Javie Castillo, who has th duties of running distanc and sprints. Senior Greg Coombe said, Pm confident tha we can repeat the sam type of performance tha we did in the cross countr championship. And with the way the practice and compete the should do it. Coach Logue said, W are a young and inex perienced team, but w have the capability an talent to repeat anothe MTAL championship. -Frankie Pere
