The season started September I and ended on October Il with 40 runners complet- ing the entire season. There were five meets plus the championship. The two girls' teams placed first eight times, while the two boys' teams man- aged to earn a first place once. Coach Gene Morgan felt that their best meet was against Clark and Central because Gruening placed first and the team put all they had into it. The cross-country coaches for this year were Mrs. Colny Tucker fformerly known as Miss 258 Welshj and Coach Morgan. They felt that this season's cross-country team had improved great- ly since last year, with most improved runner as Theresa Fletcher, and most inspirational athletes as Tim Roberts and Dennis Miller. Near the end of the season, Coach Morgan was asked how he felt about the team. This year's cross-country team is a good one. l like to have good teams come out of the junior high and be as active in school sports throughout the rest of high school. I hope next year to have an equally good team to send on.
