A County Meet cham- pionship with a record 114-point total and four new school re- cords excited stadium goers. At the sectional, veteran Fred Vester swept the long jump and the 100-and 220-yard dashes and rewrote the sectional's oldest re- cord by sprinting the 100 in 9.8. Vester, track's MVP, qualified for all three events at the state, ending with fourth place in the long jump. After an N.C.C. title in the high hurdles, Steve Netser earned the Best Runner award. Mark Swisher was named Best Field Event man. A freshman, Tim Smith, outran most opponents, smashing the LHS mile-run re- cord with a 4122.9 and the sec- tional record with a 4:26. Smith, N.C.C. mile champ, climaxed his season by placing thirteenth at the State Meet. lib if-gw - - .- .'. '1 .. Varsity Track Record -9-0 L. H.
