Although success in CROSS COUNTRY
this year might he termed only moderate, there
were a few individual performances that stood
out. James Gillian was the boy who led the
Maroon to victory in its few victorious dual
meets. However, in the Sectional Championships
at the Rockefeller Estate in Tarrytown, Jay
Koster pulled the biggest surprise.
Koster had been coming along rapidly all
year, and as can be shown by his improvement,
he did better with each successive meet. lay,
who had been flirting with the fourteen minute
mark all year, shocked everyone by finishing
seventeenth in the W.I.A.A., and then came on
to move up to his fourteenth, in a field twice as
large. In his successful venture in the Sectional,
Koster even defeated James Gillian who was
fifteenth. However, Gillian was hampered during
the race because of a sore muscle in his leg.
He had previously finished seventh in the
W.I.A.A. meet.
The third man for Davis all season long
was Hank Washington. Washington, who used
Cross Country as a conditioner for his specialty
in Track, the 440, was twenty-seventh in the
W.I.A.A., a big jump from 55th the preceding
year.
Others who were among the top for Davis
were Ray Stewart and Lou Salzman. Salzman,
incidentally, was Davis, individual winner in the
first meet of the year.
The competition was stronger this year
than in any year in the past. Jerry Utter, of New
Rochelle set a new county record, while more
runners just got under thirteen minutes than at
any time in the past.
Returning next year will be Gillian and
Koster along with Salzman and others in the
second Eve.
