Harriers Take Second State Title For the second straight year the Burke Cross Country Team Won the State Championship. This is only the third time since 1960 that a team has won two straight state meets in a row. The Cross Country Team won nine dual meets while losing one. Six of those victories were in the American Division giving Burke the Champion- ship for the third consecutive year. In addition, team titles were captured in the Ralston and Millard Invitationals. The team won the Metro Champion- ship for the second time in the school's history. The A-3 District Champion- ship was won the Week before the State Meet. Nine boys earned letters this year. Competition was very close for the seven varsity positions. Of these lettermen, five will return for a shot at a third title. Senior Paul Schultz took the gold medal in the State Meet for the second year in a row, beating the second place runner by thirteen seconds on the Kearney Course. For the first time two girls were part of the Burke Cross Country Team. ff? 'Q'
