By MATT PODBESE
“Mr. Collegiate Gyi
and two Lion freshmen
coach Gene Wettstone
are “top potential canc
for the ’6O Olympics”
Chicago, 111., for the n;
AAU Gymnastics Champi
today and tomorrow.
Today’s events will coi
compulsory routines and e
tions. The finals will be 1
morrow.
The three unattached
Slaters are frosh Jay V
and Lee Cunningham a
course the champ, Ar:
Vega. They have been w
out for this one meet sin
National Collegiate Chat
ships which were held
22-23.
Vega climaxed a sen:
junior' year in the NCA
winning the All-Aroun
with a record-setting total
of a possible 1800 points,
same tournament, he v.
collegiate specialty—the
bars for the second
year.
If Vega can equal his 1
tional total—an average
the AAU 100-point basis-
take the AATTs this ye
cording to Wettstone. The
finished sixth in the AA
year.
"But this meet is extremely
important to two olhei boys
(Werner and Ciuminghaih) who
have great Olympic potentiali
ties." said Wettstone. "This is
definitely a good tryout of their '
potential, and will also give
them some good experience."
For Cunningham, who'won all
six events in which he competed
for the Lion frosh, this will be
his “first big one.” The competi
tion will be the best in the coun
try.
But for Werner, it will be the
second try. His first crack at the
national championships was as a
“green” junior in high schooL He
competed “just to get the exper
ience.” Werner, incidentally, lost
only two events this year—both
in tumbling and both to Cun
ningham. In the Pitt meet, Cun
ningham won that event, 256-255;
to give an indication of the high
scoring potential of these two
freshmen. -
