Keep trackin' PummeIling through the halls was not the type of practice the cross country team had been used to. Members felt that the team which had been hampered the most was the cross country team. Normally, the team would have done all of its work out of doors. Distance travel, usually one of a neighborhood-type routine, was their basic form of training. January and February are usually spent on endurance and stamina, Jolley said, rather than the develop- ment of techniques, therefore, little could be done indoors. So in 1978 the cross country team, the guys of the grueling miles, were faced with more than the stamina of the race. They needed open area to do the work required by their training. ln addition to using the school building as a practice area, Jolley also took the team to Barton Coliseum. A simple phone call arranged its use for Parkview. Coach Jolley was surprised to find that Parkview was always the only team that practiced there. Barton was a good place for us to practice, Scot Overbey noted, be- cause it was a large, open area. There weren't many obstacles in the im- mediate practice area. With all of the snow and ice of pre-season track, it was appropriate for the first meet in Searcy to be snowed out and for the next to be an indoor meet. The latter was held in Russellville, and Parkview ran away with first place honors. Cross over. Lee Littleton crosses the finish line at a cross country meet. Cross country il Q
