Compiled by Don Steffens
Many excellent times were turned in by competitors in the USTFF-T&FN
Postal Competition in 1976. But, for the first time in several years,
no new records were established. All in all, though, the results are
again outstanding.
York of Elmhurst, Illinois won he high school two-mile team race for
the third year in a row, despite the loss of individual record holder
Ron Craker who graduated last year. Joe Newton's bunch ran 47:34.4
and, with that time, moved into seventh place on the all-time lsit.
His guys did that due mainly to close team contact as there was no
"Craker-type" leader this year. Dominant still were teams entered from
the large postal meets contested in the San Francisco Bay Area, namely
Carlmont, Watsonville, and Leigh.
Rod Berry, the ntion's best soph three-miler last spring, came back
to win the two-mile outright and share the top spot over three miles.
He and Tim Holmes (of Modesto's Downey) both ran 14 minutes flat.
Berry is a junior at Redwood of Larkspur and his 9:04.6 two-mile was
better than his spring best of 9:09.4. Last year's frosh record setter
Carlos Carrasco of Mt Pleasant moved into the varsity competition
grandly with a tie top second at 9:09.6. Holmes, with a 9:09.0 in
1974, is the only soph who has ever run faster. Three freshman ran
under 10 minutes, the most to beak that barrier since 1971 when 5
went under.
Girls participated for the first time. Naturally, not too many teams
competed but we hope many more will participate in 1977. Please spread
the word to the girls coaches at your respective schools. We hope
that participation by girls will reach the same level as that of boys.
Fewer collegiate teams than ever sent in marks. Perhaps te distance
is simply too short, since most conference title meets are not contested
at 6 miles. But it is our thinking that a three-mile would allow for
a good workout sometime during the season.
Results were printed in the February issue of Track & Field News and
will be submitted to The Harrier for consideration.
