Royce Shaw, Jon Enscoe, and Tom Spengler will take on Northeastern's Larry Joseph in the mile. Shaw stayed with the leaders for most of the feature mile in Saturday's Boston Garden meet and should be the favorite against weaker competition tonight. He and Enscoe will team with John Gillis and Keith Colburn in the meet's final event, the two-mile relay, in an attempt to meet the qualifying standard for the indoor NCAA Meet...
