shot put was my best event. It is
| my favorite,” Masters replied.
~~ “We didn't have a great record,
. | butIthought we were strong in the
| throwing events and sprinters,”
| ( Masters said.
5 At districts, Gary got second
| i place in the shot put and third in
| (javelin. He didn't qualify for states
and he said he was upset. How-
ever, he said, “Yes, it was a pretty
successful year although we didn't
‘win a lot. We learned that even
| though there wasn't a lot of depth
| we could still win and be a team.
Everyone was pushing each other
for their personal best. They also
| knew how to work as a team.”
| © Masters plans to attend LCCC
| | for a year then hopes to go to
| Shippensburg Unviersity and
_ | throw for them. “I'm going to train
| | here on my own ‘till it's time.”
| | Shisson ran well
| © The third senior for Lehman that
showed a great deal of success
| during the year was Mark Shisson.
| Shisson also plays basketball and
| is the son of Daniel and Rose Mary
Shisson of Sweet Valley.
Mark ran the 800 and 1500
runs and also was on the 4x300
and 4x400 relay teams. “I ran well
at districts. I ran good times but
the competition is overwhelming. I
did all I wanted to do.”
Shisson commented on the
team, “We learned ifyou work hard
and put forth the effort you will get
results. I think the team next year
will have more experience and may
do better.”
Shisson hopes to attend College
Misericordia to major in nursing.
He will continue to run however in
local races. He trains by running
an impressive eight miles around
Harveys Lake.
Underclassmen have also helped
the Knights this year. Mike Burna-
ford, son of Bernice Manzoni of
Chase, ran on the 3200 and 1800
relay teams as well as the 200 and
400 dashes.
During districts Mike got a third
place finish in the 400 dash. “The
team will be better nextyear. There
are a lot of good kids coming up
from the junior high. We will have
a lot more experience,” Burnaford
stated.
Junior Dave Clancy, son of
Norman and Diane Clancy of Har-
veys Lake is another impressive
Knight. This was his first year in
track and the high jump event.
“Mr. Nark convinced me to come
out. At first it was just something
to do but now I really enjoy it,”
Clancy said. Like Shisson, Clancy
also played basketball and is a two
sport athlete.
“I was happy though, I got third
at districts. I jumped 6'1 and the
qualifying mark was 6'3. Well, the
form is the hardest part and not
running is good.”
Clancy feels the team will be
stronger next year. “We're losing
some seniors but we will try to
improve our record slightly and get
more numbers out to be more
competitive.”
Whether or not you consider
this season good or bad for Lehman
you can surely say that these fine
athletes are a good representation
of the effort and heart it takes to
compete with a less than average
record, tough conditions, and in
high school athletics.
