Ryun Seeks Dual NCAA Track Records At Knoxville
Kansas runner Jim Ryun, aiming to set NCAA marks, dodged a late meet rule gamble to enter both the mile and the three mile at the 48th National Collegiate Championships in Knoxville. Coach Bob Timmins called the decision a life or death scramble that could have ruined Ryun and Kansas’ title hopes. If Ryun wins both events, he would be the first to do so. The finals for the three mile come an hour after the mile. Other events and entrants include Southern Illinois favorite Oscar Hoare and contenders like California, UCLA, Washington State, Oregon, Brigham Young, and host Tennessee.
