Dethrones North Central state champs Coach Jerry Stauffer remarked, “Undoubtedly the finest and most accomplished track team in the history of Warren Central High School.” To back this statement up the cindermen de- throned defending Marion County champs North Central. The first County championship won in twelve years. For the second straight year they have won the Carmel Invit. CSAC championship, Franklin Relays, and the Arlington Invit. The WC trackmen also placed fourth in the Hoosier Relay. The 1973 track team finished the season with a six win and two loss record in dual meet competition. Then the sectional came with WC looking for their first sectional championship in the school his- tory. They did it by dethroning sectional and state champs North Central. Warren had four sectional champs, Roy Benge, mile run; Bruce Kreiger, high and low hurdles; and Joe King, two mile. Warren qualified five for the state meet with Roy Benge being the third fastest mile runner in the state. Depth proves to be the answer to all the victories and upsets the cindermen accomplished. ROY BENGE LEADS Dan Cummins to the finish line. HIGH AND LOW holder Bruce Kreiger shows his form as he clears the hurdle. ROY BENGE, GETS the signal that he has one lap left. SENIOR DAVE KLEYN winds up to throw the discus which he holds the record for in the new event last year.
