Some Old-Time Junior Records Include 2 Teammates

Brian Boyer sent us an old program from the TAC (used to be the AAU and is now the USATF) Junior Championships held at the Nittany Lion Track in 1983.  I was ensconced in Podiatry School at the time and missed the whole thing entirely.  Previously, I included two of the ads from the program and here is a listing of the Junior Records at the time.  Two teammates of mine are in the ranks as well as a Nittany Lion Great from before my time. 

  • John Zishka       (Lancaster, OH HS)     5000M     13:55.65     6/17/1980
  • Paul Lankford    (NY HS)                      400 IH       50.87        6/18/1977
  • Alvin Jackson    (Nittany Valley TC)     Hammer    202' 2"      6/22/1973

  1. Tony Darden's stride was a thing of beauty. He was slight of build. I often thought he would have been a, world class 880/800 guy.
