Although track is a team sport, it essentially involves a great deal of individual effort by each. of the participants. With consistent point producers like Jerry Munden, Eric Painter, and Mike Ward, the Raider cindermen enjoyed a successful season and set some school records in the process. Jerry Munden placed consistently high in the long jump and the 440 yard dash. Jerry's time of 54.7 in the 440 was good enough to set a school record and his 20'4M1 effort in the long jump also shattered the old record. Mike Ward bettered the old shot put record with a heave of 47'3M . Randy Clark went over the bar at 5'9 to set a new record in the high jump. New records were set in the distance runs as Mike Reno turned in a 2:08.7 time in the half-mile, Steve Masters posted an excellent 4:48.3 in the mile and Nick Ashton bettered the old two mile mark by more than seven seconds with a time of 10:49.8. The Raiders expected to be strong in the distances in 1970. New records were also chalked up in the half-mile and mile relays. Ray Poffenbarger, Mike Reno, Eric Painter, and Jerry Munden posted a respectable 3246.1 in the mile relay while Joe Sanders, Ray Poffenbarger, Jerry Munden, and David Saunders knocked 3 seconds off the old half-mile record in a 1 137.7 effort. The trackmen ran for the first time on the new-all-weather track, a far cry from the old cinder track at Fairfield and one of the finest facilities anywhere in the state. Randy Clark stretches out as he jumps the low hurdles to maintain the pace with two other cindermen.
