I'm forgetting others! Write a comment below to update the list.
And lets not forget Ohio, the state that's "high in the middle and round on both ends" (from Tom Rapp himself). The Ohio State Mile Champions at PSU in my day are:
1. Tom Rapp 1977
2. Alan Scharsu 1978 (in the photo)
3. John Zishka 1979
4. Clark Haley 1981
All of this was off the top-of-my-head, which is notably deficient. Please send me additions and corrections in the comment section!
Ah, the updates are rolling in, just as I had hoped.
1. Mike Cook, 1600 1979.
2. Mark Overheim, 1600 1981

5. Dave Greene 800, 1979
6. Doug Walter, 800 1986
7. Mary Rawe, mile 1977 or 1978?8. Robert Snyder, mile 1974, 1975
9. Kathy Byrnes, 880, 1977
Sexist pig. What about those Lady Lions?
ReplyDeleteMary Rawe comes to mind first.
(Sorry Coach, the she-devil made me do it.)
Dave Greene, 880/800?, 1979?
ReplyDeleteMike Cook, mile/1600?, 1979?
Doug Walter, 800, 1986
Maybe some 4x8 guys are hiding too?
Kathy Brynes from North Allegeheny in 1977, but she transferred to Lehigh after a year
ReplyDeleteRobert Snyder 74 and 75
ReplyDeleteSkwilli - Mary Rawe (Rapp) had to have won in HS Mile 1977 as she graduated with Tom Rapp in 1981 from PSU.

ReplyDeletesome updates
Mike Cook won the mile in 78 as well as the 1600 in 79
Dave Greene won the 880 in 78
Marc Dunmire didn't win, he was 2nd I believe
Mary Rawe won a bunch, multiple miles, 880s, and 2M relay in 75-77
Bill Kvashay won a relay gold
And, um, you forget Greg the Course Marshall
Didn't know Cook won two. Knew Rawe won a few, but wanted confirmation. I have always thought Dunmire won! I was supposed to be in that race, but was DQ'ed at Districtrs for tripping Henry Klugh, and had to run the 2-mile instead. Didn't know Bill Kvashay could run an 880! And Greg was in High School before color was invented, so may not count! (Sorry Greg, I couldn't resist.)
ReplyDeleteWhat about the cross-country studs?
ReplyDeleteRon Moore, Doug Walter, Bob Hamer to name a few in my feeble head from my era.
I had not counted XC up until now. Gary Black PA 1978 springs to mind also. I was only 5th in 1977, but I had a stress fracture and was only 7th at Districts. And who is this Ron Moore you speak of?
