My Dad ran in college back in the '70s. I knew he was pretty good because when I was a little kid we visited his college, and he had a lot of plaques on the walls and trophies behind glass in the athletic facilities. One day I started Googling his name and a few key phrases and found newspaper stories available online. Turns out he was all-American. Later on, I found the results of that actual race, filed as a poorly scanned typewritten document. You can find some stuff.
