Tension and exhaustion mark the face of joliet Westlsl Don Kimmel as he success- fully edges jay Robinson of joliet East in thc 440 yard dash. Will County Championship highlights track season Beginning five years ago, the tradition of winning in track at West was started. Making the 1968 season no exception, Coach Roger Swank guided his team to firsts in Will County, Kewanee Relays, joliet Kingsmen Relays, and Illini 8 Conference. Unfortunately, the shining season had its dark spots with the loss of its first and last duel meets to East Aurora and Notre Dame respec- tively. West, rated one of the powers in the area, was highly acclaimed entering the District Meet, but received a second place.
