...other two field records were set by Crimson ace Tom Biodgett in the pole vault and broad jump. Biodgett's pole vault of 13 ft. broke by six inches the meet record he set last year. The broad jump was a Crimson disappointment, aside from Blodgett's record leap of 22 ft., 11 in. "Zik" Asikiwe had a bad day, and Alan Albright, although he qualified for the finals, and although he was the most consistent Crimson jumper throughout the day, was unable to squeeze out the few extra inches necessary to place...
...Blodgett, who finished the day with 20 points, won the low hurdles in 26.6. Hatch finished second. Jed Fitzgerald won the two mile run, and Mark Mullin, who was in third place at the start of the last lap, kicked away from Army's John Jones to take second...
...hammer and broad jump will be Crimson strong points. Ed Bailey and Stan Doten will definitely place in the hammer, and Roger Wilson may beat Army's Bob McCarthy for third. The broad jump should be a sweep by Chukwuma Asikiwe, Alan Albright, and Tom Blodgett. Blodgett is also expected to win the javelin-throw, and, if he can beat the Cadets' Gary Brown, the pole vault...
...broad jump is a third strong event, with four men jumping over 23 feet. Top on the ladder are Chukwuma Azikiwe and Marty Beckwith, who have both jumped 23 ft., 3 in., and Blodgett can come within half an inch of this...
...step and jump also looks bright. Azikiewe, doing 45 feet consistently, is a good pick for the IC4A Heptagonal winner this year. Alan Albright, an advance standing sophomore, has also been doing well. In the pole vault, Tom Blodgett is expected to clear 14 feet this year, high enough to give the Crimson a solid first in every meet. There is no one else on the squad, however, who can come within two feet of this mark...
