Cross-Country Season Up Next (The Circle of Life)
Larry Mangan was sent these photos from the 1978 NCAA Regionals at Lehigh. Penn State won the race and was 3rd or 4th at the NCAA Championships three straight years. I can attest that it was difficult to break into the "starting 7" all 4 years with a cast that included Larry, Alan Scharsu, Bruce Baden, John Ziegler, Bob Snyder, Tom Rapp and Mike Wyatt.
What's really remarkable is that Larry, Tom and Mike were really milers mixing it up with George Buckheit of Bucknell, Sydney Maree and Amos Korir of Villanova.

I knew immediately that these pictures were taken from lehigh (without looking at the write-up). Awesome PSU jerseys in these pics!
ReplyDeleteI never made the top 7 that year, but did the year before. It took injuries to several of them!
ReplyDeleteAnd the Rono/Salazar duel at Lehigh was great. PSU was third that day.
