upcoming, the team was understandably drained. This partially accounted for the Many things were experienced and learned during this 1970 season that will not soon be forgotten by any of the members of the team. Even when losing, the cross-country team had a morale and unity that cannot be matched by many teams on this campus. This was partly due to the nature of the sport and partly to the individuals that made up this group. One of the bright spots at the end of the season was the look forward to the next year's team. 1970 has been an important grow- ing year. Graduation will take its toll of three capable seniors, captains Brad Kron and Roger Moffat and Harry Merrifield. But step- ping up will be juniors Bill Olsen, Don Kirton and Rich Davis; sophomores Paul Thistle and vastly improved Mike Cryans, along with Bill Morrow, Alan Currier, Gene Cadman and Tim Derrig. The freshman team, with a season of competing with the varsity under their belts, will add strength to next year's varsity. Hope- fulls will be co-captains Howie Herrington and Dave MacLeod, along with Mike Flaherty, Pete McGenty, Irv Potter, Noel Saunders and Tom Clear.

Also Mike Cryans was presented with the Captain's Trophy for the most im- proved runner on the team. Roger Moffat received the Riggie Award as the outstand- ing runner for the season. A great deal of credit must be given to coaches Vern Cox and Ken Klatka for their leadership and guidance throughout the sea- son. They spent long hours of cold afternoons waiting for the return of the team from a work-out and should be commended on their dedication to the team as well as the sport. It was a year for which no member of the team should be ashamed or discouraged as many personal goals and satisfactions were derived. It is a lonely and self-satisfying sport with many of the victories and recognition coming only from within. It is hard to reason why one would want to run cross country but harder yet to talk a dedicated runner out of it. eleventh place finish in the New England Championships and no team score in the IC4A's due to injuries and illness.
