Taylor ' s gallant trackmen fought all corners this year in battling to a 2-5 record. The squad was young and inexperienced, but their hustle and determination turned this into a fine season. Taylor ' s victories on the surface this year came from Windfall and Sharpsville. With competition being somewhat stiff, the Titans were just incapable of hold- ing their own with the more experienced squads. With such runners as Randy Sellers, Dennis Bentzler, and Tony Gabriel, Coach Bond ' s thinlies look threatening in the near future as track at Taylor High takes its place in the sports world.
