Individual efforts boost - thinclads to new records Perhaps more than any other sport, track is a sport for individ- uals. These individuals must per- form well in their different areas of competition, yet still be mem- bers of a single unit. The 1968 track season saw school records fall to be replaced by new, faster ones. Bill Hicks, sophomore, set the record in the mile with a time of 4:25 minutes. He also went on to become the city-county and sectional champ. Senior Evan Davis blazed into the record books by winning the city-county and sec- ' .,-. tional championships in the 880- yard dash. Other school records fell when Bernie Terhune, senior, soared 13 feet in the pole vault, and Mike Larrison, sophomore, putted the shot 48 feet 41f2 inches to clinch the school record in shot put. Finally, Dan Pfaff, senior, ran the low hurdles in 20.8 seconds and ran the high hurdles in 15.5 seconds to put his name into the books. As a team, Coach Vern McCarty's thinclads placed fifth in the city, and fourth in sectional competition. lom Mihler Mike Tiller , Tvan Davis, and Bill Hicks prove to be an asset to the 67-68 track 1 , Y NHIIH. Senior, Tom Miller, stretches his legs for the distance run contests,

Although the golf- ers did not do as well as expected in the regional, Coach Albright said this was just an off day for everyone. With everything going for them, Coach Albright looks to the 1969 season as our best yet because he has his first five men back.
