Looking over the old results something came to mind and that was how good JUCO's use to be back in the day...
At Hutch JUCO we had the following my FR. year:
Ted Crank...3rd two mile %A...JC champion at 1500 meters
Jeff Rosenow 2nd #A @mile and 2nd in CC
Randy Pierce...4th CC in 3A
Bill Robinson...3rd 2 mile 4A, 3rd CC 4A
David Zuk...3rd 2 mile 5A 5th CC 5A
Chuck Foster...6th 1A CC
Mitch Erlich...5th 3A CC
Dennis Weber 4th mile 3A and 2nd mile 3A, 5th 2 mile 3A, 9th CC 3A
Randy Gaines...4th 800 5A
Terry Drake 4th mile 3A
Tim Rocholtz...14th CC 3A
I don't remember all the results but we gave a lot of four schools a nice run for their money...most of these guys went on to run in four year schools...many at the D-1 level.
I think this is a solid group of athletes put together at a JUCO...I don't think you still see this anymore...
I also remember Butler County being very good as well...
