Austin Peay cross country coach Wayne Williams knew about what to expect as he entered his outmanned squad into the impressive competition offered in the Ohio Valley Conference Cross Country Championships. t'We will be running with some of the best cross country people in the nation, said Williams. As host of the 1976 championships, Williams could only hope for a high finish in the bottom four of the conference as Western Kentucky, East Tennessee, Murray State and Eastern Kentucky presented strong contingents. With freshman Zafar Ahmed finishing 25th over the 10,000-meter course at Swan Lake Golf Course. the Governors placed seventh in the eight team field as Western Kentucky took top honors in the event. For many years cross country in the OVC has ranked with the best in collegiate competition and 1976 was no exception. Ahmed, a Canadian with a great future, was clocked in 33:40 while the Governors next finisher, Earl Palmer, placed 40th with a 34:53 time. Other regulars on the Austin Peay cross country team included Nate Deer, Ron Erickson, Bernard Lykes, Melvin Pritchard and Mark Spurgeon. As Williams noted, the emphasis at APSU has not been on cross country. 'We think we could develop a good program in cross country but it's a tough conference to compete in. ON THE RUN - Austin Peay's home cross country meets in 1976 were run at Swan Lake Golf Course. Highlighting the home schedule was the Ohio Valley Conference championships. Austin Peay coach Wayne Williams Hopi is shown giving instructions prior to the start of the competition while Zafar Ahmed tAbovei challenges two runners from Eastern Kentucky.
