. J.V. Boys ' Track On your mark, get set, go!, was exactly what our first University City High School Junior Var- sity Track Team did. This year ' s track team really put their right foot forward toward a winning season. They all worked very well to- gether to make a solid J.V. squad even though track is such an individual sport. Their coach, Mr. Mitchell, really enjoyed work- ing with them and felt that we will be a Power- house in later years. The practices were ev- ery day after school until about 3:30 and were used as a training ground for the Varsity level. The performance of the player during prac- tices, was decisive as to who ran J.V. or Varsity at the next meet. Vernon Parrish sprints to the tape. First Row: Mark Richards. Tony Romag.
