V. Girls' Track Wins Despite Setback The 1982 Varsity Girls' Track Team, coached by Roxanne Radford, had a fairly successful season, even though top sprinter Reid Patton was out of major meets be- cause of a pulled hamstring. Then the team was led by Julia O'Brien and Laura Cochran. In order to qualify for the Upper State Meet, nine girls placed first, second, third, or fourth in the conference meet held for the first time at CCES. Julia O'Brien was all-conference in the 800 and placed sec- ond in the mile and two-mile. Laura Coch- ran placed second in the 100 meter hurdles and 200 meter hurdles. Jennie Arnau broke the school record in triple jump, and Marion Rose placed second in the 440. The two relay teams also participated. Overall the girls were runner-up in the Northwestern Conference I-lA. At the Upper State Meet held at Liber- ty, Laura Cochran placed third in 100 me- ter hurdles, sending her to the State Meet. Jennie Arnau was able to break her record again in the triple jump. Mrs. Radford explained, This was the youngest team ever, but they did really well. This exper- ience will be good for the future. The awards for Most Valuable, Most Im- proved, and Sportsmanship were given to Laura Cochran, Julia O'Brien, and Elea- nor Conway respectively.
