Arroyo Grande High School Shotputters

Question that Gary Hill WILL know the answer.

Has any other high school ever had three guys go over 60 feet in the same meet?

Re: Arroyo Grande High School Shotputters

Lancaster High School (Ohio) had 3 over 60' in a dual meet in '74 or '75. They had a three man relay of 178'+ that same year which is still a state record without a huge toss leading the way (60', 59', 59'). With the exception of the conference meet and an early season relay meet, there were not opportunities for more than two to participate. Although, this may not be as rare as I think, a few years later ('77), the same school had 8 guys at 13'6" or higher in the PV. The school also produced '52 Olympian Gene Cole (:47.7 HS in '48, and :45.5 split in OG), & John Zishka '80 (4:03.8/13:55 HS).

gh will NOT know the answer: I only pay passing attention to high school track.

ps--even if I did know, I'd pretend I didn't, lest Rob & Powell accuse me of being "parochial" :-)

Re: Arroyo Grande High School Shotputters

This article from the International Herald Tribune has nothing to do with sports, but is very relevant to a "parochialism". The author is making a convincing argument that ignorance is a universal phenomenon (as most of us know).
