C wif- .4 Q .J A ! x ati, THALA F' 1--ff-4+-4 x 4 G Donny Sapaugh explodes placing in three events Competing against the swiftness and endurance of Clear Lake, the strength and agility of the Pasadena Schools as well as competition from neighboring com- munities, the cindermen from Deer Park withstood these threats to finish fifth in the district meet. Leading the varsity tracksters were seniors Donny Sapaugh, David Sipe, junior Nicky Snell, and freshman Mike Minter as they captured a first in the sprint relay and Sapaugh again as he earned the Deer two more firsts in the 100 yard dash and the 220 yard dash. Proving themselves once more, these four received a second in the 440 yard relay and the 440 yard dash as Mike Minter exemplified his youthful capabilities. Sending these athletes to regional competition, the varsity garnered 65 points against district competitors. A.
