CC Runs, The J.V.’s first meet was against Riverside, a smashing victory of 20-45. Mr. David Sears did a great job in assisting Mr. Strothers coach the J.V. Harriers. In his first year, he kept up the undefeated record of the J.V. MMHS looks forward to an equally good year in ’70. The work of the statisticians, Kay Selah, Pat Stroup, Peg Pethtel, and Barb Rizzo, during rain, sleet, or icy weather, is greatly appreciated by the coaches. Above — The Regional meet shows who’s best. Right — Freshman Dennis Nash, brings up the rear. Far Right — And they’re off and running! 22

the meet. Harriers Place 1 in LSL Coach Don Strother’s Cross Coun- try team brought home a hard earned crown to Madison this year, running over everyone. Not only did they tear up our league, but they placed third in the district, sixth at Ashland College Distance Classic, and most important, ninth in the regional meet. No other sport at MMHS has qualified for the regional in the school’s entire history. Steve Foster our ace runner, set seven records in ten meets. He offi- cially broke Jay Fabian’s record by 14 seconds in a double meet with Kirtland and Wickliffe, crossing the finish line in 11.14. Steve qual- ified for the State Meet in Colum- bus again this year, finishing 10th, 15 places better than last year. In this his final year at MMHS, appre- ciation towards Steve’s outstand- ing performance, was shown through a most valuable runner trophy. This is the first time such an honor was given to a Madison Harrier. Varsity Harriers that helped in es- tablishing the LSL victory include Jeff VI inton, Steve Foster, Kim Pe- chek, Don Webb, Paul Potemra, Ray Antweiler, Dave Vernick, Ed Waldo, Dave Buck, Bob McGinnes, and Max Taubert. 2
