A Lion In Hiroshima

Our intrepid Coach Groves' caretaker Greg Fredericks passes along the news of the death of Polish Gold Medalist Irena Szwinska. 

Greg got to meet Irena during a trip to Japan during those heady days when he had a mustache!  No news about how he did in the two races he ran in the Land of the Rising Sun!  But then I can't remember what I had for dinner yesterday...

Irena with son Andrzej.

Greg with other foreign stars in Hiroshima.

Greg only remembers that the Indian athletes were horizontal jumpers.  (Much like my experience with the Pole Vault...)
