At War Eagle, timekeepers, a hamburger cookout, and an estimated crowd of 350 awaited the weary racers. In the end, the home field advantage was not an advantage at all for NSU. Instead, the Oklahoma State University team raced to victory in the college category with a time of 2:20:12. Tahlequah High School did use the home field advantage to win the high school category with a time of 2:26:42. The media division proved to be the slowest of the winning racers. The NSU student newspaper, .The Northeastern, took first place with a time of 2:31. The only all-girl team in the race was Tri Sigma sorority of NSU. They covered the 14-mile trek in 3:01. Alas, Tri Sigs were not the slowest of the day. The Aggie Club of Conners State College took that honor with a race time of 3:13. When it was all over, race officials announced they were ready to begin planning for next year’s race. Rival teams pledged they would be back for a re-match. © The winners, in the meantime, collected their championship i trophies. The “River Drifters” finally crossed the finish line and the Illinois River continued to flow, in no hurry at all.
