The i960 track season was a poor one for the Mission spikers. But as in years before Mission had its fine outstanding athletes who kept up team spirit and made the meets interesting for the Mission spectators. Versatile Aurelio Gonzalez, as well as being team captain, was high scorer for the Mission varsity. The high iump, broad iump, and high hurdles were taken in stride by him, but the low hurdles proved to be his strong point. Always dependable Bill Kidnay, the hard- est working member of the team, was a big threat in the league this year. His hard work paid off and he was Gary Condurachi overtakes a Bishop Amat thinclad to win the 220. ............,a.. able to shave fractions off his previous record in the mile. Others who made their contributions to the team this year and will be returning again next year are: Chuck Robinson, Steve Hudson, Ray Pineira, Mike Capo- sino, Ralph Nuccitelli, Tom Sheahan, Louie Mortillaro and Wally St. Clair. These boys, mostly Bees, split their talents and ran varsity whenever called on. This year's track awards went to: Chuck Robinson, Most Improved, Bill Kidnay, Best Runner, and Aurelio Gonzalez, Most Valuable. Speedy Charlie Robinson glides easily over the high hurdle on his way to a Mission victory.
