Senior John Anich took second place in the state meet. As good as last year's cross-country team was, this year's team was even better, due to the return of some very talented run- ners. Among these were senior Iohn Anich, who led the team with many first place victories to his credit. Other return- ing seniors were Mark Censky, John Lanshe, and Frank Bender. The juniors also played an important role on the team, especially Philip Moser, Denis McMahon, and Gary Williams. The team Went undefeated in dual meets, and most of the victories were by wide margins. Through the remainder of the season, the Knights continued to out- class all area competition. The team did well in invitational meets as well, winning our own Hoban Invitational and coming in second in the Walsh and Boardman Invita- tionals. Advancing to the District, the team came in With a third place, which qualified them for the State Meet. Down in Columbus, they turned in a fine performance to take fourth in the state. 119

Young Track Team Pushes Hard. The overall season record of this year's track team, 0-6 fin dual meetsl doesn't give real tes- timony to the outstanding efforts of its members. The team consisted of twenty-two men, each con- tributing his own individual achievements. Under the direction of head coach Ralph Paonessa and as- sistant coach Dick Malloy the team consistently presented their rivals with tough competition. The team finished fifth in the N.E.O.C. meet, above St. -V.-St. Mary. The majority of underclassmen on the team promises future progress. 120 Above: Kevin Springs Volchko at practice. fAbove Front row - Charles Hamilton, jim Eckman, Vince Guarino, Iohn Martucci, Harold Stewart, Paul Carlson, Ie Fess, Barry Burnett, Bill West.
