Track Lees-McRae opened its track schedule at Salisbury against Catawba College. Following three away matches, the Bobcat thinclads returned to their new facility to host Brevard College. Last fall Lees-McRae completed a new regulation NCAA meter track as part of their new athletic facility under the ACT campaign. The ACT campaign, conducted by friends and alumni of the college, resulted in six new tennis courts, a track and renovation to the football field. The new facility has a paved triple jump runway, paved pole vault runway, and a paved 60-foot radius fan-shaped jumping area as well as a six lane track. The track was christened for its initial match against a national junior college power in Brevard. The Tornadoes finished in the top ten and cross-country in the nation for the past several years and have dominated the Region X cham- pionships for the past ten years. Hart Gordon — Lonely is the long distance runner. 180 Trark
