Product description…

A DECADE OF SURPRISES

In the 1960s, Roanoke College’s cross country and track men had the unenviable task of matching the successful performances of the teams of the 1950s, whose coach, Homer Bast, was a legend in state coaching circles. The athletes of the 1960s may not have won the same number of meets, but they were impressive. In track, for example, they matched or set some 46 school and 14 Alumni Field records over the 10-year period. This book is a successor to Dawn of a Sport and The Bast Boys, both focusing on the earlier years of the two sports at Roanoke.Outskirts Press Review
