Coach Groves' Top Team?

Finally, I hunted down the photo of the 1979 Penn State Mens Cross Country Team.  Coach Groves called this team his finest, and their third place effort in the NCAA Championships garnered them a lower point total than any other team under his tuteledge.

The top scorers on the team were, in no particular order, Alan Scharsu, Rick Garcia, Jeff Adkins, Larry Mangan, Tom Rapp and John Ziegler.  The rest were all great "Seventh Man" on the team.

*  Former "7th Man" Mark Hawkins again bettered his Over-50 PR at the Sykes-Sabock Challenge NVTC Open Mile with a 5:12.52!
