It was the first time the Richland girls had competed at the relays. We had a very strong senior class, said Hudsonfprobably the best I've ever coached. Strength and consistency kept the team alive in a rough field of opponents. And because adversary causes growth, next year's team, according to Hud- son will be better.Robbie Ondrusek. gi 3j ,,1fe z H: 'rl 2w2es1wwE, 4s sr sw wgir r n:s1s4ieiisi? rs:1?1E2Y lg m y ,,1a5z',fsgfh-f wm . is ies,-fs: zzwr:2sft1fr,:s W gggfigasr - ' iff 5 gs wz gpgs fffiiniw -vieas f sewers Si n s' 515153225PE4if2s4ffI4WW2fTfS?f21 ' '- 55 V :E I t F ' A -S lbw' -Wi WI WW 1 7 .

sport which often goes unrecognized in the large field of sports at Richland is cross country. This year the success of the boys team called attention to the sport once again. The boys team advanced to the Regional meet after placing second at the District Meet, only two points behind Bell. Throughout the year the boys team worked out twice a day. The team covered six to nine miles daily. The year according to Hamm and girls team member Caroline Keller. The girls finished third behind Trinity and Grapevine. We did real well for our small size , said Caroline. The boys sent seven runners to Abilene with a second place finish. In Abilene the Rebel team placed ninth with 223 points. The winner had 29 points. Individually, Kieth Pickett, Kirk Oxford, and Scott Wrisley finished 24th, 47th, and 50th respectively with times of 16:22, girls workout was just as rough averaging about seven miles a day. Six meets occured throughout the fall. The boys ran a three mile course and the girls a 2 mile. The boys placed consistently in the top four teams during the season. We were real hap- py about the season, said Coach Hugh Hamm. At the District Meet, the teams raced for the Regional Meet in Abilene. It was the highlight of the . 16:54, and 16:55. After Cross Country, the teams moved towards the track season in spring with hopes of finishing just as strong. Robbie Ondrusek.
