Lawrence breaks school record Participating in cross country and wrestling as well as traclc has made Kent Lawrence a well rounded athlete. Lawrence, who felt the move to the Empire League made the competition tougher than it had been in the Orange League, said that the team could have taken the Orange League title had it not been for the school's advancement to the Empire League. Senior Kent Lawrence finishes a race well ahead of the rest. Lawrence's main attribute, according to Coach Al Britt, was his committment. Lawrence, who has been running since his sophomore year plans to go to college and to continue running. Lawrence has not yet decid- ed which college he will attend in the fall. Out of sincere committment he has made a believer out of himself and has made himself a very excellent distance runner, said Coach Al Britt, of Lawrence who broke the school record in the 2 mile event. ew-'W W rsrr rlrl ' Men'siVarsitY EHS ,, M ,- .t,, , .
