In fact each and every competitor has his own way of competing in his specific event, such as pole vaulting, hurdles of the highjump. For runners, a sprinter perhaps works on his starts and runs countless times but, a long distance runner probably jogs bet- ween one and three miles a day to work on endurance.

Other runners and hurdlers that aided the were: Martin Clover, Edwards, Wilburt Patriots Robert Johnson, Tommy Washington, Bernard Williams. Lampley and Reggie Also, the return of pole vaulter Matt Logue helped the field events. Other competitors in field events were: Mark Mancuso, Randy Allen and Luke Logue, The team's strongest events were the pole vault, the mile and the two mile run. These events helped the squad to an average season. Even though not many players came out for track, the team had some outstanding ef- forts and a few pleasant sur- prises. Most everyone has con- tinued to improve which should be everyone's goal, finalized Haley. ig mieEfg5s,6Z,W A WARM-UP WORKOUT, was par for the runners' course.
