Everything "Old" is New Again!

There was plenty of new attendees at the Ninth Annual Golf Tournament and Reunion.  Dave Zeiters came all the way from Florida to match his ball-striking skills with the rest of us hackers, and related some interesting details concerning his life following his Nittany Lion days.  Dave is a System Engineer in Florida, where he coaches hurdles at Holy Trinity High School in Melbourne.  Sorry about the "old" thing, Dave.

Dave was ranked #6 in the US for Masters Track Athletes in 2009 for the 110 M High Hurdles and was the Florida Champion with a time of 16.63!  That's Dave in 1985 at The Penn Relays and practicing in March 2010.

I can't imagine making it over 1 hurdle at my age, let alone a series of them in a race.  With his all-time best of 14.26, Dave is still competing at 86% of his capacity, a remarkable feat indeed.  I'll stick to my 50%, thank you very much.
