re: watchout

I graduated from South in 1970. I knew Harry Johnson as a gymnastics coach. I didn't know he knew anything about track. When I see his name associated with Oregon track, I always wonder if it's the same guy. I remember him as a hard ass, but, to be fair, those were the sixties! In the earlier sixties, I thought North was the legendary program, with Newland, Kenny Moore et al. Go Axemen.

Was Stephen Stageberg at South Eugene during your era?

Maybe a senior to your freshman?

South Eugene?

Only one HS in the country has 4 alumni that have broken 4 min. in the mile. NO, not South!

re: Training?

Coach Johnson used the Bowerman / Lydiard approach. We usually had 25-30 runners out for middle distance / distance. Prior to 1972 South Eugene had only 9 runners go sub 10:00 in the two-mile in school history. In 1973 we had 9 guys run sub 10:00, and 24 run sub 5:00 for the mile. He coached three different runners to sub 9:00 in the two-mile from 1973-77 (one of those had a mild form of cerebral palsy). Prior to 1973 only two Oregon preps had gone sub 9:00.

Bill McChesney qualified for the 1980 Olympic team in the 5,000m (the boycott year). Bill later set the US record in the 5 and 10k. Several South grads ran sub 4:00. In 1977, 5 South grads ran in the NCAA Cross Country championships for 5 different schools. Their combined results would have placed them 9th as a team. Steve Surface went to the Univ of WA and set the freshman school record in three-mile and school record in the 10k.
