Fancy footwork rack and cross country teams showed some fancy footwork during the 1980 season as they worked to keep Patriots number one. While Patriots' minds were on football, the cross country team started the season on the right foot by walking away from their first meet with the first five places. At the state meet in Russellville, they took fourth place with a team of strong distance runners, including sophomore John Ray White. I started running with my dad about three years ago, said White. I felt I could help Parkview's cross country team. Coach fWoodyJ Jolley really is a good track coach and is doing a good job of making our team a good one. The boys' track team also began their season with a bang when they placed fourth in a tield of 27 teams from around the state in an indoor meet at Harding University. The Patriots were paced by a strong performance by Joe Rice, who placed first in the 600 yard run and led the team to a win in the two-mile relay. Meanwhile, the girls' track team spent sixth period and after school practicing for upcoming meets. The work outs are real hard, but all the self-discipline will pay off later on, said Elaine Lindsey, junior. Outstanding performances by Patriot runners didn't just happeng they took time and practice. Cross country runners were required to run 50 miles a week in addition to practice. Track team members, who ran 40 miles a week, also did their share of practicing, each one hoping to find his spot in the memories of Patriots. Running on empty. After a cross country meet, runners usually feel drained, according to Rod Whitt, who competed in a meet at Harding University. sz spores
