THE COGSWELL IIQ Cross Country During the past semester the Cross-country of Cogswell has won every race it has entered. Many claim it is the hest team ever turned out in Cogswell. The members of this team deserve all the credit that is due them. The California interscholastic and the A-X. .'X. L. races were won by Cogswell. In the early part of the year, in order to pick the team to represent Cogs- well. an interclass cross-country race was held through the Park. The hrst five men to hnish were in the following order: lfirst, lfuqua, 'l6g second, Glennon, 'l6: third. Duncan, 'l-lg fourth, llaloun, ,161 fifth, Fowler, '16, The interclass was won by the '16 Class. Then came many hard hours of training and many were the trips taken along Corbett Road and little runs to San lose and thereabouts. In this way the men soon got in good condition. The first big' race to arrive was the A. .-X. L. After the race was over Cogswell had won the race and a big cup. In this race, the Hrst Cogswell man to finish was Fuqua. Isle secured second place. The next Cogswell runner was Duncan, in fourth place. The other Cogswell runners finished in the following order: llalonn. in fifth place: Glennon, in eleventh place: Fowler, in fourteenth place. Then came more days of training, and the fellows were ready for the California race. In the California interscholastic Cross-country run, Cogswell's represent- atives again brought first place to Cogswell. Although they ran against fast men, it merely served to bring out their own speed. In this race Fuqua again secured a second place. Cilennon ran a great race, securing sixth place. Duncan finished in eighth place, Fowler in twelfth place and Baloun in fourteenth place. By their victories the fellows showed what could be done by hard training. Let us hope the team may remain intact for the next season.
