Frosh X-Country Live U to Falcon Reputation. The 1968 edition of the St. AIoe's freshman cross- country team proved to be one of the most successful in the school's history. With thirty members of the squad running hard under Brother Richard and Mr. Byrne, the dalers placed second in the state, only behind Roselle Catholic. 'The team was led by Gary Trojanowski, who had a fantastic season. Gary went through the season undefeated and later ran to the state championship. Gary was hard pressed for his victories by such run- ners as Jim Kelsh, Steve Fallon, Bob Okerson, Roy Baumgartner, Steve Martin, and Frank DeRosa. This was, of course, the runners' first taste of cross- . country. Given time to mature and develop, pros- pects have never looked better for future state champs from St. Joe's. Leadzng the way for the Falcons in cross- country meet is Gary, Trojanowski. Frosh star Gary Trojanowski breaks away from the pack as he has done all year.
