Defending champion and Heptagonals record holder Aggrey Awori failed to qualify for the final heat of the 60-yard high hurdles. Favorite Walt Hewlett finished next-to-last in the two-mile run, almost a full-lap behind the winner. The mile relay team failed to score...

Sophomore Tony Lynch squeezed past teammate Aggrey Awori in the 45-yard high hurdles to tie the old mark of 5.8 seconds...
