Palomar, Citrus and Cypress Junior Colleges were defeated in dual meets. Even though they failed to send a full squad to the Southern Cali- fornia Relays, the spikemen im- pressed with a 5th place finish in that event. The quartet of Cam- eron, Sweeney, Gillespie and Gid- dings scored 2nd place finishes in both the 2 mile relay and the dis- tance medley. lVloreno, Bayless, Furlow, and Binder copped another 2nd place 96 in the shuttle hurdles event. Also scoring a 2nd was Skip Peterson who soared 14'2 in the pole vault event. Rounding out the scoring was lVlike Field who placed 4th in the shot put. Arizona competition proved to be stiffer. Unable to pick up a dual meet victory in the early going, the Gauchos did defeat both Nlesa Community and Eastern Arizona to pick up a second place finish behind Phoenix College in the state junior college conference relays. Showing strong in the distance running events as they had all sea- son, the Gauchos pulled a mild up- set in edging Mesa. Previously, in a dual and a 4-way meet, Mesa had finished ahead of GCC in team totals. Stan Hickerson went over the bar at 6'2 to take the high jump. The shuttle hurdles team turned in an excellent time of 58:2 for the blue ribbon. High point man in both the Citrus and Cypress College meets, Joe Romero shows a great deal of potential. He indicates that he is ready to be the best all around track and field performer on the squad before the season is over.
