As M
Ed Moran’s outstanding re
breaking performance wer
naught Saturday as Lion t
men dropped a close 54-41
cision to the undefeated
at West Point. [
The Blue and White flash rij
ped off an unprecedented 2:10.
in the 1000-yard run to set a ne'
Penn State indoor and new Arm,
fieldhouse record.
Moran looked strong comin;
down the homestretch as he kic)
ed out with a burst of speed am
pulled far away from the rest <
the field at the finish.
Moran’s dazzling time was ju:
1.8 seconds short of the world ii
door record of 2:08.2 set by Do:
Gehrmann in 1952 and tied* b;
Arme Sowell in 1955.
Making Moran's lime eve
more impressive was the fact
that just a couple of events be
fore he had run a 4:16.1 mile.
He finished in a first place lie
in that mile with teammates
Fred Kerr and Dick Engelbrink.
Only a disputed baton pass in
the one-mile relay kept the Lion
boardmen from upsetting the un
defeated Army tracksters. A po
tential 51-49 win became a 54-46
loss when the Cadets gained the
five points for the relay victory
instead of the Lions.
Finishing the third lap, Bob
Szeyller and Army’s Schaeffer
were running neck and neck. Up
on reaching the position for the
baton change, Schaeffer cut in
front of Szeyiler forcing him to
reach over the Army runner to
pass the baton to the waiting an
chor man, Dick Hambright.
