farevard College Roadrunners
placed five men in their first
indoor meet of the season at
Knoxville, Tennessee, on Sat
urday, January 26th. There
were 12 schools represented
with Brevard being the only
Junior College.
Even though it was the first
meet, some individuals ran well
with many of the freshmen hav
ing troubles negotiating the
sharp turns. While times and
jumps were relatively poor,
Brevard did make it’s presence
known.
Brevard’s only first place
came from highly ranked
Charles Robinson in the triple
jump wih a jump of 46’ 7%”.
Brevard’s strength seemed to
be in the hurdles with Mike An
derson placing fourth with Ed
Manley sixth. Jeff Wright
made it to the semi-finals and
just missed the finals in a
close race. Brevard’s other
places came from Don Appel
in the shot at 40’ 11”, placing
him seventh and by Ed Chand
ler in the 880 finishing 6th.
With most of the distance
crew training more for outdoors,
Mike Bailey seemed to be the
only one ready for indoor com
petition. Though he did not
place, his time of 9:39.9 in the
2 mile was a relatively good
time on that track.
Brevard will now train for
Montgomery, Alabama, Febr
ruary 8th. Those making the
trip will be: Mike Bailey, Mike
Anderson, Ed Chandler, Ed
Manley and Charles Robinson.

much improved by now. We are
glad to see Alvin Fowler able
to be out too.
