MANKE took third for Shelton in the 80 low clirn ip The Shelton tlighclimber girls track team established itself as one of the premier squads in Black Hills League competition Friday night with a 69-45 dual meet win over the strong Olympia Bear contingent. Some pre-season polls picked the Bear girls to win it all. But it was not to be Friday night as Coach Judy Kecley's hustling squad racked up three school records enroute to its second consecutive BHL win of'75. Connie Tuson, everybody's everything at the northside school, romped home in 27.2 time for the 220-yard dash, a school record. The smooth-sailing senior also won the 440 in 63.6 er gl Aria and Neva, are consistent second or third place finishers in the shotput. The same is true with the discus pair of Karen Martin and Shannon Robinson. They are busy picking up the all-important two or three point finishes. Or how about Sheryi Edmison? Always close in the 440 she is a big part of the fast-improving mile relay tearn. "With this kind of work and cooperation," states Keeley, "we look forward to every meet. These girls want to improve." RESULTS: 80 LH -- Peterson (O) 11.7; Heinrich (0); Manke (S); I00 -- Four hundred freezing, highly-vocal fans watched Sheiton High School's track team trounce Olympia 96-49 Friday night in Highclimber Stadium. Most will agree that 350 of these fans left the stadium confused. The Johnson twins, Dan and Dave, are the heart of confusion again. With both of them competing in mile and two-mile run, you could not separate them with a razor blade. Both were clocked in identical 3:37.4 for the mile and 10:21.2 for eight laps. You simply cannot tell them apart on the track and dead heats do not help any. They do create excitement, to say the least. Blessed with sprinters' speed, they will turn the crowd on when they head for the tape. When asked if they will be beaten this year they both answer, naturally, "If someone does, doggone, they will have to run to do it." The Johnson boys were not the only excitement created by Bill Brickert's forces. The 440-yard relay team of Paul James, Paul Mortensen, Gary Nelson and Marty Settle set a school record (three records have been broken in two meets this year) of 44.8. It is the quickest time of the year for all of Washington's AA schools and the second fastest for all schools. Jeff Pill, in a manner that is becoming repetitious, broke his own school record for the second week in a row, this time with a heave of 56'11½" in the shotput. Marry Settle set a personal best and qualified for the Shelton Invitational April 26 and 27 with a 22.8 jaunt in the 220. Right behind Settle, much to Brickert's liking, was Gary Nelson, timed in 23.4. According to Brickert, Nelson is ready to put the heat on someone. Bill Blue, Olympia's fine middle distance runner and reportedly one of the better competitors in BHL circles, hooked up with Davey Johnson in the 880-yard run. More excitement was coming.

Sunday at 7:00 p.m. within sight in the near future. Joe Shaub, the newly-found hurdler, skimmed the highs in 15.5 and doubled up in the lows in 20.8. Brr~kert is also pleased with the progress his mile relay team is making. Timed in 3:39.6 two weeks ago, it knocked off a full eight seconds against Olympia, breezing home in 3:31.6. Although it's too early to tell, track fans may be watching another AA state champion in the making. The Highclimbers rank right on top in the eyes of Washington Track and Field News. In typical Brickert philosophy, the 21-year coaching veteran replies, "i'm glad they feel we're number one, but wc have to work to stay there." The next home meet is the always-tough Shelton hwitational April 26 and 27. That is the highlight of Shelton's track season. MIKE BAZE cleared a third place in the high jump behind Shultz of Olympia, who took first with 6'2" DAVE JOHNSON finished about V2" ahead of his brother in the two-mile run and took first place, although their running time was a ditto 10:21.2. 10.2 got a win for Shelton's Marty Settle in the 100-yard dash.

KITSAP From the beginning dashes to the final events of the dual track meet with North Kitsap held at Loop Field, the Highclimbers were in virtually complete control of things. Final score in the meet was SHS 90V2, N. Kitsap 22V~. In the 11 events the Climbers won all but the pole-vault. Winning for the SHS squad were: David~on (100-yard dash), Koch (120 high hurdles, shotput and discus); Young (mile run); Smith (low hurdles); Hillman (broad jump); Priszner (high jump); and Lingren (880-yard run). North Kitsap conceded the relay race. 8t CAR CARE 1st & Cota Shelton Thursday, April 10, 1975 - SheltOn-Mason County Journal - Page 13
