versity track d This year's Varsity Track team ex- perienced severe difficulties in trying to fill all of the events. Their main strength lie in their middle and long- distance runners. Middle distance runners were coached by Tony Ger- bino and Doug Biedenwig, while Torn Maier took care of the sprinters and other events. this year's team. They took the place of eight graduates. After gaining ex- perience, this fairly new team would make a strong showing in CIF. The Dolphins were looking forward to CIF competitions and possible re- cord-breaking performances by their top runners in the 440, 880, and mile events.

vfi H,-,Zin We 43 H.,,e.a.?,...af... A cross country race consists of a 3.2-miie course over varied terrain which is run in anywhere from 15 to 18 minutes. Runners are scored ac- cording to their finishing order, from 1 to 14. The scores from the top five finishers of each team are added up, and the lowest team total wins. The Academy hill course is consid- ered the most devastating in the Prep League due to its steepness and many sharp turns, which make it nearly impossible to figure the posi- tion of other runners on the course. The boys team produced a winning record, and one of the highlights of the season was an upset victory over Poly, which finished scored in League, and a loss to number one- ranked Webb by one point: 32-33. the boys finished 4th in CIF despite losing top runner Eric Puchner to in- juries midway through the season, and had a strong showing in the Mt. SAC Invitational. Eric Puchner and Alison Schmidt, the only seniors, leave behind a legacy, and coach Eric Muirhead feels that next year's top runners could break the course re- cord of 17 min., 20 seconds. 200 cross country J3' I elf , ,,,, FOUR MUSKETEERSH!!
