Hurdles were hopped wifh ease. I can remember running down the track and seeing the hurdle there rising up before me. I can feel the pit beginning to form in my stomach and the tightness all over my body right before 1 reached it. Then came the strain as I flew over it and began to prepare for the next one. Hurdling themselves over the hurdles, Jack Atherton and Kevin Maze, our fastest hurdleis, pre- pare for the disuict meet by racing against each other. Hoping to overcome the hurdles between them and victory. Chamberlain Sanders and Mark Scherci run jumping down the track on many afternoons. 96 Sports

Oui- track stars entered many events. The sprinters, jumpers, runners, leapers, and throwers came out for the 1971-1972 track teams. Many hours of concentrated practice and sweat brought bodies in top physical condition, taut and ready for competition. Sizing up the situation, Ricky Hall and Don Davis get their bearings on the pole over which they are about to leap. Sports 95 ' te vbttiK.

Relays relied on teamwork. Relying on split-second timing and extremely concentrated team work, Phillip Sanders hands baton to Ran- dy Wooten who passes it to Tommy Harvey who carries it to Gordon Mitchell who runs it to the end. Knowing the value of constant ex- ercise and practice, Mark Scherer keeps his body in tip-top shape. The value of this practice shows up when he places third in the district mile. Sports 97
