Two throwers said that the P-C girl used a shot that had the no. 8 on it!!

Dont you lose your top two sprinters this year?

Markie and Sephel are running all three distance races. Levine will be fresh for the 800!

Austin East girls will win A-AA with 90 to 100 points. Mitchell and Pearl Cohn will be fighting for second between 60 and 70 points.

The girls 800 was the most exciting race of the meet.

I think Beth Tallent (David Lipscomb) won something like 12 total State titles in CC and track. Was also part of a State championship basketball team.

Waller's six event day was the toughest I've seen at State. LJ,TJ,HJ,100,400,200. His low 21 performance to win the 200 at the end of the meet showed the conditioning that Coach Lewis gave him in training. Ramon was sick the day of the State meet and still won the 1,4, and 2. I think Cantrell's four event wins at State gave his school the team title as well.

Moore Middle has given Hillsboro many top quality football players over the years. Moore does have some influence on why Hillsboro has talent every year to go along with good coaching. I feel sure Maryville has a good feeder program as well.

Hillsboro is open zone. They also have what many say is the top public middle school in town (Moore Middle). They (Moore) have won the City in football (along with just about all other sports) many many times. They have good coaches but they also are in a good situation with their main feeder school and open zone.

Going by the Great Eight entries, they must be all back. I guess they had several missing when they ran against Hillwood in their first meet. The Hunters Lane coach said they did pretty good against his girls.

They run against Hunters Lane this Thursday. The HL coach will let me know how they perform.

I may be wrong. Just going by what a coach told me. He said they did not even have a 4x1 relay and that Hillsboro girls dominted the sprints. They go against Maplewood today. Maybe results in the paper will give us an idea tomorrow.

Interesting news. Talked to a coach who was at a meet against Pearl Cohn (girls). He said they (Pearl) did not show anything good in the sprints as if the girls from last years team are not running for the new coach. However, maybe they have not come out for track yet

Pearl Cohn only lost their second best shot thrower from last year. However, they have a new head coach. Not sure of the background of the new coach and knowledge of the sport. The boys and girls teams were both disqualified in the Regional cross country meet for uniform violations with this new coach. It will be interesting to see how Pearl does this spring. The talent is there! Will the new coach get them to their potential?

Komisar can be a head coach.
