For the sixth consecutive
year, Shclton High School's track
team has brought home all the
marbles in Black Hills League
competition.
Friday night at Highclimber
Stadium, in what was billed as
the BHUs meet to decide the '75
champs, Bill Brickert's forces
erased any doubt as to whom the
'75 powerhouse of BHL track and
field was, defehting a hustling
Hoquiam squad 89½-55½.
Rob Smith, the
heavily-recruited football and
DAN JOHNSON beats his brother, Dave, by 3/10 of a second to win the
mile during Shelton's meet with Hoquiam Friday evening. His winning time
was 4:38.4.
Smith's performance must
have pumped up the Highclimber
runners. Gary Nelson, usually
• Brickert's 220, 440 and relay
man, took the 100 in 10.4.
Dan Johnson, the injured half
of the twin distance act, beat
brother Dave in the mile by
three-tenths of a second, winning
at 4:38.4.
Paul Mortensen was pushed all
the way to the 440 tape by
Hoquiam's Steve Bitar, with
Mortensen getting home in 51.4.
Bitar was right there at 51.5.
Del Miller, the flu-ridden
Climber javelin thrower, took a
first at 164'0".
Jeff Pill, also on the
Highclimber crippled list, put the
shot 50'½" to keep Shelton's
victory march on its way.
Smith again stepped in to h',dt
the Climber push, this time with a
19'11½" effort in the long jump.
Tile Climbers then nailed
down three firsts in succession to
remain unbeaten in BHL circles.

Judging by Saturday's
Tumwater Invitational victory, at
the Tumwater oval, the
Highclimbers have a chance at it.
Bill Brickert's thinclads put away
five other BHL foes to establish
themselves as the team to beat
from this area.
If distance coach Leon
Stutzman and weight coach Walt
Clayton's prediction is correct,
Dan Johnson, Jeff Pill and Del
Miller should be healthy for the
state meet this year in Pullman
May 23 and 24.
Joe Schab, the junior hurdler,
took the highs in 16.9 and
doubled up in the lows, wimdng
in 2t.8.
Pill, coming off a knee injury,
put the shot 53'1½" to pick up
ten points. Marty Settle whipped
the field in the 220, winning at
24.1.
Joe McPhearson, Chehalis'
outstanding miler, ran away from
North Thurston's Larry Webber
and Shelton's Dave Johnson,
winning in 4:26 flat. This could
be an outstanding race at
Pullman. Webber has hit 4:24.8
and Johnson has run a 4:26.5. if
Dan Johnson is healthy, there
could be four BHL runners
making a side-by-side run for the
tape at Pullman.
Brickert predicted at the first
of the year that his 440 and mile
relay teams could spring some
surprises by season's end. The
mile relay team could sport a new
face, that of Dave Johnson.
It has been rumored that
Johnson is hitting under 52.0 in
practice. If so, then the 3:32.5

The Shelton High School girls
track team was eliminated from
the '75 Black Hills League
championship picture Thursday
by the front-running Centralia
girls, 70-44, at Centralia's Tiger
Stadium.
On this day, as was the case in
an career Tiger 73-41 victory, the
Centralia gids dominated the
relays and middle distances to
push Judy Keeley's ~uad to 3-2-1
for the '75 BHL season.
Carla Burks, the Tigers'
all-purpose girl, captured two
firsts, the long jump at 16'1" and
the 880-yard run (2:37.5) to
spark the "75 BHL champs. She
was also a part of the winning
mile relay team, giving her squad
a 15-point performance for the
afternoon.
Connie Tuson, one of
Shelton's AA state hopefuls,
broke her own school record for
the third time this year, getting

Then Burks with her long
jump, Jan Dropalski with a 12.1
100 and Judy Waterson with a
5:53.5 mile ended any hopes of a
Highclimber BHL title for this
year.
,"Next year," states Kelley,
"could be a different story. We
have some fine young talent in
our Middle School age group."
The Climber girls are now
preparing for Friday's sub-district
meet. The 6 p.m. affair at
Highclimber Stadium determines
who will compete in next week's
district finals. From there they
advance to the state meet.
