Trock Teom in Nine Meets, Mile Reloy Record Broken It was the best of times and the worst of times for the 1964 track team. The season got off to a good start when the Warriors won seven events to finish second-only one-half point behind North Bend-in a triangular meet. Following the good start, the squad finished eighth at the Albion invitational and in a tie for nineteenth at the Midland College Relays. The Warriors captured only four places-none higher than third-in Albion, where nine teams were competing. Bob Polzin's two points in the high jump were all Schuyler could muster at the Midland Relays. A few good finishes came next. The Warriors sneaked by North Bend 63-60 in a dual meet. The team scored 28 points to finish fourth out of eleven teams at the St. Bon Invitational and won seven events to edge Wahoo 65-58 in a dual. The squad scored 37 points to finish behind only Columbus St. Bon's in a triangular. The season ended with a last place finish in the Central Ten Conference meet and a seventh place finish in the district meet held in Schuyler. Bob Polzin, consistent point-getter throughout the season in the high jump, and Dave Johnk, a discus thrower, qualified in these events for the state track meet. The only school record broken in 1964 was the mile relay. The team, consisting of Larry I-lorejsi, Joe Jonas, Bd Neesen and Jim Varejcka, lowered the mark to 3:42.2.
