With only two Varsity Lettermen returning to the Varsity Cross Country Team, Coach Bruce Turner was faced with an untested squad. In September Mr. Turner started an intensive train- ing program in order to rebuild the squad. Although they finished the dual season without a win they gained mo- mentum and turned in some com- mendable finishes in the County Cham- pionship Meet. Led by Sophomore Frank Roth, several Falcon Harriers finished well in the individual stand- ings of the championships. The Junior Varsity Cross Country Team turned in a respectable and noteworthy record. Stiff competition and keen contests seasoned this novice squad. In his first race newcomer Ray Grupp led the Junior Varsity Team with an outstanding finish in the Coun- ty Championships. He was followed J by Junior Varsity Harriers Al Ginge- ' rich and Chris Spangler, who ended the season with a flourish. N Tom Walsh dashes past Overlea teammate Dave Spinek in the County Championships at Catonsville. Frank Faust accelerates around a corner heading for the finish in Junior Varsity competition at the County Championships. I27
